“Wanna tell me what that was about?” Caleb inquired.
Austin shrugged. “Nothing.”
The blond moved over to join them, and once Ethan came back, they listened as Caleb gave them tips, then took turns catching different hits.
Jamie approached and clapped when Austin dived for a grounder. “Good catch,” he offered, grinning.
Caleb would’ve had to be blind to miss the blush spreading across Austin’s face.
“Jamie, these guys are from Rain Valley High School and play third base. This is Ethan, Austin and…” He cleared his throat and looked at the blond.
“Jackson,” he reminded him.
“Yes, Jackson. Guys, this is Jamie. He’s a very important member of our team. He’s our mascot.”
“You’re the giant bunny?” Ethan howled.
Jamie nodded, but didn’t remove his gaze from Austin.
“So, Jamie, did you need anything?” Caleb asked.
“Oh, yeah. Sorry,” he said, a little sheepishly. “Um, Lucas Landry just arrived and asked where you were.”
Caleb’s heart thudded. He took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. “Oh, yeah?”
“Mmm-hmm. He said he wants to interview some of the kids and the players. He’s in the locker room.”
“Okay. Thanks for letting me know. You mind hanging out with these guys for a few minutes? I’ll see how Lucas wants to set this up.”
Jamie nodded and turned to the blushing Austin.
Caleb bit back a chuckle and made his way toward the locker room. He forced himself to walk, but he wanted to run. Hell, he wanted to sprint. He felt like he was moving in slow motion, but when he entered the locker room and saw Lucas sitting on a bench, he sped up until he kneeled in front of him, putting them on the same level.
Caleb cupped Lucas’ face with both hands and stroked his soft skin with his thumbs, unable to keep himself from touching him even one more second. Lucas’ warm brown eyes widened and he pressed his forehead against Caleb’s.
“I missed you,” he whispered shyly.
Caleb replied by brushing his lips against Lucas’ mouth. He meant for it to be a sweet kiss, he really did. But the jolt of arousal coursed through him like electricity and he crushed his lips against Lucas’, taking control.
Lucas moaned and Caleb slid out his tongue to lick his lips, tasting his sweetness and needing more. He pressed against Lucas’ closed mouth, which he opened eagerly, inviting him in and rewarding him with the unique flavor he’d been craving. It was honey and spice and could only be Lucas. Caleb moaned and wrapped his arm around Lucas’ waist, pulling him close.
Lucas tugged his lips from Caleb’s and placed soft, wet kisses across his cheek, stopping to trace the outer edge of his ear. Caleb shuddered. Lucas suckled his lobe and Caleb growled low, finally pulling away.
“Come with me,” he ordered, standing and grabbing Lucas’ hand. He pulled a little too roughly, but Lucas didn’t complain.
“Where are we going?”
Caleb didn’t answer. He’d show Lucas in a moment.
They made their way through a maze of hallways, ending in front of the sauna. Caleb clicked the thermostat down a little. There was enough heat between them already, he mused.
He glanced over his shoulder at Lucas, then smiled as he opened the door and gestured for the man to enter first.
Lucas paused, but his lips curved into a small smile and he entered the sauna.
It wasn’t big, but they didn’t need a lot of room. Caleb smiled again and pulled the door shut, locking it behind him.
Desire coursed through him and he reached for Lucas, who willingly came to him. Their lips met and theirkisses grew frantic.
“We don’t have a lot of time,” Caleb cautioned. “They’ll notice I’m gone soon and come looking for me.”
Lucas bit his lower lip and stared at Caleb, his brown eyes dark with lust. He yanked his shirt over his head and threw it to the bench, then started to undo his jeans.
Caleb’s breath caught in his throat. “Fuck, you’re stunning.” He stood frozen, his eyes tracing every curve and contour of Lucas’ chest.
Light blond hair formed a patch of curls between his pecs, trailing to a thin path to his belly button and below, disappearing into his jeans.
“You going to catch up?” Lucas whispered, his voice teasing.
Caleb growled deep in his chest and practically lunged forward, stopping Lucas from removing his jeans.“Mine,” he stated.
Lucas swallowed hard and pulled back his hands. “Yours. Make me yours, Caleb. I need you.”
Fuck! That was all it took for Caleb to lose control. Clothes went flying, Lucas’ and his, until the man of his dreams stood before him fully naked and exposed. Lucas slowly slid his thick, hard cock in his hand. He was like a beautiful buffet and Caleb was torn. He wanted to taste him like he had before. Devour him again. But he didn’t want to put a mark on him.
