Randy (Tales of the Merman Book 2) Page 18


  "I agree, but can't say I'm comfortable with the thought."

  "I think it's the one thing that plagues Heath the most." Sage slapped him on the shoulder. "Go see your man. If you two get bored, you can always come join me for some yard work. I'd be glad for the help."

  "Sorry, only plant I know how to grow is kelp. You're on your own." Randy waved as they split ways.

  The walk home wasn't long, and in a matter of minutes he was back at the clinic. Just as he thought he found Tevon leaning over some strange piece of equipment that must have just been delivered. Randy didn't remember seeing it before. He smiled as he leaned against the wall, watching Tevon work, so lost in what he was doing, he hadn't heard him come in.

  So much happened over the last few months, and as he watched Tevon frowning at some sort of digital pad, he thought about it all. Tevon had saved him. Not just medically, but emotionally as well. A new world seemed to open up since Tev came into his life. Sure, he still had his problems, but with him by his side, Randy could take on anything.

  How easily he could have died that day in the water, and never have known what it was to love someone. Sure, he loved his brothers, but this with Tevon was different. It was so much more. He wondered if he'd eventually have found Tevon if it hadn't been for the shark.

  "Hi, I didn't hear you come in." Tevon stepped away from the machine and came to him, wrapping him in his arms.

  "You were working." Randy kissed him softly. "Got some new stuff?"

  "Yeah, now I just have to learn how to use it all. It's changed a bit since I went to school." He brushed Randy's hair back from his shoulder. "It can wait though. I thought I could cook us dinner and we could relax with a movie or something."

  God, how he loved being inland with all the technology. "Sounds wonderful. Can I help you cook?"

  "Of course. Maybe between the two of us we can make it edible. I wasn't planning on anything too fancy. Just some spaghetti and garlic bread. I also got us a bottle of wine."

  "Going to get me drunk?" Randy pulled him closer, cupping his ass to draw them firmly together.

  "It might help you relax." Tevon brushed his hand over Randy's crotch.

  "Ah, there is a method to your madness." He grinned. "I'm willing to give it a try."

  Tevon eased back and took his hand. "I don't want you to stress if it doesn't help. It was just an idea."

  Randy led them upstairs to the apartment. "I'm okay with things. I know that someday everything will work again. Until then, what we have is more than I ever dreamed I would have in my life. You are everything I need. I would love to get hard for you, but I also know I don't need to do that to prove I love you. There are many other ways I can do that."

  "Oh?" Tevon pulled their bodies close together again "Care to show me some of those ways?"

  Randy smiled "I have a lifetime to show you, but I'm happy to start tonight."

  As Tevon kissed him, everything he'd been through made sense. It prepared him for Tevon, for love, and no matter what life threw in his way, with Tevon by his side, everything was going to be just fine. This is what love was, it was more than just the physical, and he would do everything he could never to lose it.
