“Yeah.” He grunted a small laugh. “Small world.”
“But you said you went on a date with a guy. It didn’t go well?”
“Didn’t have any sort of spark with him and deleted my account from the dating app afterward.”
“But seeing me again is bringing up feelings or just renewing questions that maybe you’re bi?” I wondered.
“All of it,” he replied.
“Me too,” I admitted.
He balked slightly. “Really?”
I smirked as I responded, “Since the night I first saw you play with your band, I’ve been thinking about how your hands would feel on me again.”
“Chase.” Gage swallowed.
“What?” My brow furrowed.
“Saying that is only going to make matters more complicated.”
“I’m sorry, but it’s the truth.”
He stared at the dark ocean in front of us for a few moments and then asked, “What do we do?”
I looked off into the distance too for a few beats before I said, “We can kiss.”
“And if we feel nothing?”
“Then we move on from this but at least we’ve finally had some sort of closure from that night.”
“And if wedofeel something?”
“Then I guess we see what happens.”
“Okay,” he breathed.
I leaned in and Gage bent forward. I felt as though I was about to kiss someone for the first time. I suppose I was, but only because it was going to be my first kiss with a man.
I licked my lips slightly and went in further. I could smell the mint of his gum just before our mouths met, and a rush of something raced through me as we opened at the same time. A burst of passion washed over me, and I was certain Gage was feeling the same because we both deepened the kiss at the same time. I pulled the back of his head while he cupped my cheeks and our tongues swirled around, the mint tasting sweet on my taste buds. I had to think that because he wasn’t pulling away that he was enjoying it too. I was loving it so much that my dick was getting excited.
After several long moments, we pulled apart.
He exhaled. “That was …”
“Yeah,” I agreed to his silent words.
“Now what?” Gage asked.
“I think we should get out of here before we get arrested because kissing you makes me want to recreate the night in our dorm.
“I feel the same way.”
“Good.”
He cranked the engine. “Where to?”
“My place for coffee?”
