stuff over with, so the thought of waiting was worse than facing up to it.
Mac wasn’t ready to talk to his folks y et. He’d been apologetic, worried
that Jez would see it as him not being as com m itted as Jez was. But Jez
had reassured him that it was fine. It was Mac’s decision to m ake in his
own tim e.
Jez’s parents had been better than he thought they ’d be. But when
they ’d started to quiz him about it over Sky pe and he’d explained that he
thought he was bi rather than gay, his dad had im m ediately started talking
about it being a phase and som ething that Jez would grow out of. Jez shut
that down fast and assured his dad that his bisexuality wasn’t a phase, and
even if he ended up with a wom an, it wouldn’t m ean he was m agically
straight. He m anaged to refrain from adding that he was pretty sure no
straight guy enj oy ed sucking dick as m uch as he did.
His m um had been great, though. She was surprised, for sure, but
quick to be supportive. She’d even asked if they could m eet Mac
som etim e soon, so they had m ade plans for Mac to visit Jez’s house for
New Year.
Jez drained the last of the beer he’d pinched from Mac and then
leaned in close, speaking directly into Mac’s ear so that Mac could hear
him over the m usic. “I’m gonna get another. Do y ou want one too?”
The light stubble on Mac’s j aw brushed Jez’s cheek as he replied.
“Yeah, please. Guess I’d better, as som e greedy bugger drank all m ine.”
Jez drew back until he could see Mac’s face, and they grinned at
each other. Mac licked his lips, and Jez couldn’t resist leaning in for a kiss.
“Ugh. Get a room,” Shawn y elled across at them , but Jez j ust gave
him the finger and kissed Mac again, deeper this tim e.
Later, people were dancing. Dani dragged Jez to j oin them while
Mac was in the toilet.
“Com e and dance,” she said. “You haven’t m oved from that sofa all
night.”
Jez let her lead him into the m iddle of the room . They ’d m oved all
the furniture out for the party apart from the sofas, so there was a decent
space. Packed tight with bodies in the dim light, it was alm ost like being at
a club. Jez lost him self in the m usic for a while. He danced with Dani till
her boy friend cam e to claim her, and then he put on som e stupid Dad-
dancing m oves with Mike for a while. While he was attem pting to
m oonwalk, he felt firm hands on his hips as he backed into a solid body.
“What the hell do I see in y ou?” Mac’s am used voice in his ear
m ade Jez shiver.
Jez turned, putting his arm s around Mac and reeling him in. “You’re
j ust j ealous of m y legendary dance skills. Stop laughing at m e.” He
kissed the sm irk off Mac’s face.
They carried on dancing, together at first, but then they drifted apart
in the throng for a while. Jez was dancing in a group with Josh, Dani, and
her boy friend when he caught sight of Mac with Gem m a. She had her
arm s around Mac’s neck and there was no space between their bodies. Jez
frowned, j ealousy flashing through him and m aking his m uscles tense.
As if Mac could feel the heat of Jez’s glare, he turned his head and
m et Jez’s gaze. He grinned and j erked his head in a com e-here gesture.
Gem m a peeled herself off Mac when Jez sidled up. “I was only
borrowing him ,” she said with a wistful sm ile. “You can have him back
now.”
“Thanks.” Jez tried not to sound pissy, but he wasn’t sure he’d
m anaged it.
Mac reached out a hand and grabbed Jez’s wrist, tugging him closer.
He wrapped his arm s around Jez, and they sway ed to the m usic together.
“You don’t need to be j ealous,” Mac m urm ured in Jez’s ear.
“I’m not.”
“Liar. If looks could kill, poor Gem m a would be toast. We were only
dancing. And any way … y ou’re the one I want, not her.”
A flood of heady possessiveness washed over Jez, m aking his cock
thicken and swell in his too-tight j eans. “Good, because y ou’re mine.”
With their hips aligned and only a couple of inches of height
difference Jez could feel Mac’s bulge nestled above his own. Neither of
them was totally hard y et, but they were getting there.
“Wanna go upstairs?” Mac spoke the words quietly into Jez’s ear.
Jez turned his head and claim ed Mac’s lips in a deep, dirty kiss. Mac
kissed him back, his hands wandering down to grab Jez’s arse. Jez was
