“What are you doing?” I whisper huskily.

Colby bites down on the corner of his lip as they lift into a smirk. “Can I come to your party?”

I’m taken aback slightly by the shift in conversation, not expecting him to say that.

“Y-yeah, of course you can,” I say, still somewhat confused.

Colby glances over to the teammates sitting in the row next to us, who I already know are sound asleep, and then he surprises me again as he smooths his hand over the top of my thigh. He spreads his fingers, like he’s measuring the width of my leg, then curves his hand around further until his fingertips graze the length of my dick.

My breath catches in my throat. Heat crawls down my spine and into my groin. He doesn’t leave his hand there for long. It’s barely ten seconds before he removes it completely, and my skin is left scorching, tingling with the memory of his touch.

Colby licks over his lips again, leaving them shining under the moonlight, luring me in like a wicked temptation.

And when he speaks again, it’s like a filthy promise I can’t wait to cash in.

“I think I’m ready for my next lesson at your party.”

CHAPTER TEN

COLBY

It’s late by the time we arrive back at campus. The streets are deserted, but it doesn’t stop Tyler from walking me home. I appreciate it, though I don’t miss the glimmer of confusion that crosses Liam’s face when Tyler declines his offer for a lift back to their house. Liam doesn’t say anything, but I can’t help but wonder if he’s going to pepper Tyler with questions when he gets back.

Tyler’s protectiveness isn’t anything new, but it’s almost like it’s gone to the next level, and people are noticing.

Once we reach my building, he waves me off with our usual “See you later,” and I head up to my room, where I crash the moment my head hits the pillow.

It’s not until the following morning when the sun is shining brightly through my window that I realize my alarm hasn’t gone off. I must have forgotten to put my phone on charge.

Groaning, I rub my eyes with the heel of my palm, then stretch my arms over my head, pressing my hands flat against the headboard and pushing to stretch my body those last few inches. I let out a loud yawn before rolling over and reaching for my phone cable. I plug in my phone and toss it onto my bedside table and bury my face into the pillow.

Luckily, I haven’t got any classes today, but I need to head to the library to study before training starts again tomorrow. We’re going to be at the practice facility every spare minute we have available, preparing for the Frozen Four.

After a few minutes, my phone must have switched itself back on because it starts vibrating with a flurry of incoming notifications. I groan again into my pillow, not wanting to move but knowing I can’t lie here forever, then reach out to grab my phone and force my eyes to open.

There are several texts from my parents and sister, along with extended family members congratulating me on last night’s win, but my eyes focus on the four unread texts from Tyler. My stomach swoops as I’m hit with the reminder of what we got up to this weekend.

I want to do it again. Soon.

I mean, it’s only normal to do it a few times, right? Practice makes perfect and all that.

I press my hips into the mattress, not wanting to get hard right now when I need to get up and head to the library. I can jerk off to the memory of Tyler squeezing our cocks together in his fist when I get back.

Tapping on the notification bubble, I notice the time stamp on the first one was sent twenty minutes after he walked me back to my room.

Tyler

Just made it back to mine. Liam’s looking at me like he’s either trying to work out some complicated math equation or he’s constipated.

Tyler

Don’t worry, I haven’t said anything, and if he does, I’ll say it was my idea to walk you back after I lost my shit on that guy earlier.

Tyler

Hopefully these don’t wake you if you’ve fallen asleep, but I just wanted to say thanks for this weekend. It’s been the most fun I’ve ever had.

My heart thunders against my sternum. The most fun he’s ever had? It was the most mind-melting experience of my life. Winning the tournament didn’t come close to the euphoric feeling that coursed through my body when Tyler put his hands on me.
