Love in the Clouds

Rafael Patino has a great life in Rain Valley. He’s a teacher at the high school, has a great group of friends, and enjoys the occasional baseball game. Other than the sporadic call from his drunken mother, he’s pretty content. He’s also been in love with his best friend Dustin for nearly a decade. Years of keeping those feelings under control are put to the test when they begin a summer project together. Dustin Vance builds furniture for a living, has just earned his pilot’s license, and has an amazing best friend. When he buys a 1976 Cessna Skyhawk, he asks Rafael to help restore it, then travel with him to Wisconsin for the largest aviation convention in the world. As they spend their days working on the plane, they begin to spend their nights together. Will they find love in the clouds, or will they stall out before they even take off?

“You parked behind me.”

“Crap.” His friend shifted in his seat, as if nervous. “It’s late. Um, you wanna just stay again? I can move the truck in the morning.”

Dustin’s heart raced. Fuck, yes, he wanted to stay the night. “Sure. I’m bushed anyway.”

Soon, Dustin followed Raf into the house.

“You want me to take the sofa?” He hoped he sounded nonchalant, but didn’t think he pulled it off.

Raf practically glared at him before his expression softened and he rolled his eyes. “Come on, Sunshine. Let’s go to bed.”

And that’s exactly what they did. But this time, when Raf slid in next to Dustin, he turned onto his side so they faced each other, and he opened his arms.

Dustin moved closer, letting Raf wrap him in his arms and tucking his head under the man’s chin. He felt warm and safe and too tired to analyze the situation. The sound of Raf’s breathing combined with the feel of his heart beating lulled Dustin to sleep in minutes.Chapter 7
