Now that the holiday collection has hit the shelves, it’s time to work on my next submission, an erotic short for Valentine’s Day.
Toby and Alex have been lovers for several years… they fell hard for each other in college, and are still together. The passion has always run high for them, right from the beginning. Toby’s the bold one, Alex the shy one, but even Alex can’t restrain himself when Toby walks around the house like this…
The fireworks started soon after they met. Here’s a snippet of their first time:
That night, we’d seen a movie with some hot love scenes—hetero, of course, but hey, sex is sex—and we were both turned on as hell. I invited Alex back to my apartment, which he agreed to a little breathlessly after I gave him a deep, passionate kiss as incentive. I glanced down afterward, and he was already hard as a steel post.
So was I, of course. We both knew perfectly well what was gonna happen when we got there.
We headed off to our separate cars, and drove the short distance to my apartment. By the time we arrived, I kid you not, I was so horny I was trembling. It took me three tries to get the key into the lock, something that made Alex laugh.
“Me too,” he said under his breath, as I finally succeeded and let us in.
But all is not going smoothly. A series of setbacks and personal blows leaves Alex reeling, distant, hurt but unable to reach out for help. Toby is desperate not to lose the man who is his true love, and feels helpless as he watches his heart slipping away. In a last-ditch effort, he plans a tropical getaway for the two of them to Trinidad, hoping the lush warmth and sunshine will somehow bring Alex back to the world of the living.
The only alternative, it seems, is losing him forever — and he can’t even contemplate that.
