Chapter 69

Jason, standing in the hallway, Colby’s room key in one hand, said, “Colby…” and then did not quite know what came next.

“Jason,” Colby said back. He was now leaning one shoulder against the wall, looking on as Jason failed to use the key to open the door. Under nondescript hotel lights he was soft and tousled and pretty, an elf-flare of woodsmoke and sapphire that’d put on long legs and a button-up cardigan to go out and get mildly tipsy in a hotel bar. His lips were slightly parted.

And his gorgeous eyes were huge. Watching Jason’s hands; watching Jason.

One movement, any movement, might ring the world like a bell. Might reverberate through this hallway, this universe. Changing everything, in the taste of Colby’s lips and the tumble of a cardigan onto a floor.
