LEWIS

I know I said to Eli I'd head to Penny Kin's Tavern tonight and celebrate my promotion, but after finishing up at the auto shop I was starting to feel the strain of the long day. I mean, I still wasn't used to a hard day's graft and, if I was honest, I think my cardio team at the hospital may have something to say about my head-on approach straight back into heavy-duty work. I don't know why I decided to push against the tiredness to go home and change, but something within me told me I had to go out tonight and just have one beer. I intended to just have one. I was cautious knowing that drinking was not a good combination for me any longer, but a small light beer every so often should be okay, right?

The moment I walked into the bar and made my way over to the bar, I knew the reason I was here. The new guy I'd never spotted here before. Fresh hot blood and everything I wanted and desired in a guy. I mean who wouldn't want a piece of that?

I could instantly tell he didn't fit in our small town, with his designer leather shoes, skintight fitted clothes that you knew were expensive as fuck, and slicked-back sun-kissed hair. I could tell with the glowing complexion that whoever this man was he'd not had to work for anything in life. So, for someone like him to be here in Hope Springs, something was definitely amiss. I liked puzzles though, and this guy right here was one I wanted to figure out all by myself.

"So, it's the first time I've seen you in here," I said once I took a seat in the corner of the bar with my drink. I glanced at the beer in my hand and my stomach flipped over. Maybe, I won't drink it after all. I don't know what this man has done to me, but those damn eyes have somehow ignited my whole body on fire. I haven't let anyone close to me since I had my surgery. What if? I just… I let out a breath and shook my head at the thought in my head. "I thought I'd introduce myself and…," I blurted out, nervously.

"I've just moved here with my new job," Alexander cut in, stopping me from making a fool of myself. "I start next week, but I wanted to find my footing, you know?" I nodded as he took a sip of his cold beer before placing it back down on the beer mat.

I couldn't help but cough, my hand reached up to touch my own lip as I noticed the gathering of white foam across the top lip of his. I desperately wished I had the confidence to have reached over and licked it away. The way my hard cock twitched against the rough seam of my pants at the thought of the deep moan I could have ignited from within him.

"You have a little something on your—" I began as Alexander reached up and touched his lip, his mouth parting slightly as he stared at me. "Yeah, just there."

I watched him swipe the foam away with his thumb before placing it in his mouth and sucking the contents clean off. Fuck! My fucking cock couldn't cope with this torture as I fought back the groan in my throat and swallowed it back down.

"Did I get it all?" he asked in a deep tone as I nodded back, just as if I was one of those nodding dogs attached to the worktop of someone's desk. I was out of control and lost in the motion, unable to stop myself. "I mean if there's…"

"Yeah," I said breathlessly. "You did."

"Shame," Alexander whispered as my mouth parted at his words. "You could have helped me." He winked. I caught his flirtatious manner, and his obvious come on. I wasn't expecting it but fucking loved the brash attitude and confidence he'd exuded. Once again, I wished I had the guts to have done it myself. "I wonder what else you could help me with?"

"Well, that depends on what you'd like to help with next?" I leaned forward and whispered back following his lead. "The ball is totally in your court now, Alexander," I uttered before licking my bottom lip, pulling it between my teeth and biting down gently. "Is it just to ensure you look presentable?"

"I think maybe the next act is about to start," Alexander replied as the lights dimmed around us and my heartbeat instantly stilled wondering if I'd read the situation completely wrong. I mean maybe Alexander wasn't giving me the signals I thought he was. The panic was beginning to set in as I took in a deep breath and dropped my head low as I heard the shuffling of his body move away from his seat. "Lewis." I glanced up as he dropped to a crouch by my side. "Meet me out back in the restrooms, knock twice…"

Fuck… that man!

I lifted my gaze to watch his sexy frame and tight ass in those jeans swagger away from me across the room straight toward the restroom situated in the far corner of the room as people suddenly rose from their seats and started to gather around the stage, eager for the next act. I should have been excited about the next act—loving music the way I do—but all I could think about was making my way through that crowd and into that room with him.

I needed to feel something and know what it meant to really be alive again. This man—this sexy, hot piece of new meat could give me that and make me realize exactly how much I deserved to be here. That I should be loving and value my life in every way I possibly could, and not just getting through the nine to five every day.

I knew deep down that I shouldn't be scared of the person I am now, or of the scar that runs down my chest. Instead, I should embrace my battle wounds as part of the new me. It was just a fight that seemed to panic me—opening myself up to someone new. I just couldn't help these building emotions that overcame me when I thought of someone seeing the new me. The questions I knew they'd have and the story I wasn't ready to reveal to someone who I wasn't sure I could guarantee would be by my side in the morning. It was my secret to hold onto.

I quickly turned around and checked no one was following me before I leant casually back against the restroom's single door and let out the breath I was holding. This was my chance to show Alexander I was interested too.

Knock, knock.

The lock of the door suddenly disengaged, and I found myself suddenly moving the weight of my body forward to stop myself falling over backwards at the shift of the opening of the door.

"I thought you may have changed your mind on me and that—" Alexander began as I quickly turned on my heel, slipped through the gap within the open door and kicked the door shut behind me with my foot.

I turned to face the sexy, ruffled hot guy in front of me and raised my eyebrow at him before I stalked forward and placed my palms flat against his shirt-covered torso.

"Have we finished with the negativity now?" I asked before letting out a chuckle. "I could just turn back around if you'd prefer…"

"Or you could just drop to the ground on your knees and deal with my weeping hard cock," Alexander countered as I instantly licked my lips.

"Now, there's the confident guy I like," I breathlessly whispered. "A little control. A lot of direction and a desire that oozes straight from him," I gasped out as I trailed my fingers down his chest pushing against the fabric so I could feel the hard ridges of his chest. My own cock twitching and desperate at the way my mind was concocting what beauty waited underneath his clothes for me to see. "As you asked so nicely, how can I refuse?"

I dropped to my knees and glanced up through my hooded eyes as I reached for his belt buckle and waited for his nod of confirmation that he really wanted this.

"Please," he moaned out with a trembling tone. "Take me out, taste me and…" I didn't need to wait for him to finish his sentence. I quickly let my fingers get to work unfastening him and sliding his pants down to gain access to the hard, velvet length that I was desperate to grasp. "Fuck…" he moaned loudly as my hands gripped him, toying with him as I licked my lips before licking a solid strip up the entire length of his dick. Alexander's hands instantly found the back of my head as his fingers twisted around the strands of hair making me moan against his length. The shiver that rippled down his body as I teased his length, made my own cock weep.

"I wonder how long it'll take me before I make you blow in my mouth?" I challenged, before I took him fully in my mouth to the root and felt the shiver in his thighs as I gripped hold of him with one of my hands. I couldn't help but moan loudly, matching his own noises of enjoyment as we changed the tempo. His cock thrusting to the back of my throat as tears gathered at the edges of my eyes from the amazing fullness and thickness of his length.

I never wanted it to end.

I licked and teased his full length, loving the sounds leaving his mouth as I massaged his balls with my other hand, knowing that if he was doing this to me, I would be fighting the sensation. I'd be trying to resist letting go with all my might just to grab a few more seconds of pure ecstasy living in this moment. I wanted to make him come undone and be at my mercy. I had to make this man, with so much cockiness, lose his bravado and willpower in one swoop from my touch. It was my mission; he was my soul focus. Nothing else mattered at this second, apart from the heavy breaths and his pleasure.

"Fuck Lewis, how the—" he let out through strained words as he gripped hold of my dark brown hair and pulled it hard. He began directing exactly how he wanted me to take him. "Don't stop doing that," he gasped out. "Please, oh God, harder—" I glanced up into his penetrating gaze as I slurped and sucked him, watching the way his nostrils flared, and his teeth were gritted in concentration—straining and attempting to hold back. "I—Lewis, I…"

I tried to fight back the smirk from forming on my lips knowing that my full concentration needed to be on the swelling length in my mouth as Alexander's will finally gave in, and he let go fully and completely.

"Lewis—" he sighed. "Lewis?—"

The grip on my hair loosened and his body sagged as he finally came in my mouth, and I swallowed his cum down. I pulled back, and fell back on my haunches before wiping my mouth and staring up at him—desperately ignoring the strained length I was sporting myself, trying to hold back my gasp as he dropped to his knees by my side and circled his hands around my neck before pressing his lips against mine.

"Alexander," I moaned against his mouth. His lips started to explore the seams. "I…"

"Let me help you, Lewis," he pulled back and whispered as I took in a deep breath. "Let me take that cock of yours and?—"

Knock, Knock…

A fist banged…

"It looks like we'll have to pick this up another time." Alexander kissed me gently before he stood up and straightened himself up ready to leave the room. I pushed myself to stand and glanced across at him and he winked back at me. "I'll buy you a few minutes. Until next time."

"Yeah, until the next time." I nodded at him, solemnly. "Bye, Alexander."

"Lewis." He smirked as he sneaked out of the restroom without a second look behind him. I took a second to compose myself by walking over to the water basin and splashing some water on my face.

The thing was I knew that there would never be a next time with the sexy, hot guy again. He'd given me exactly what I needed. I'd pushed my limits with him and that was enough for me to know that I had a heart—that I could still feel and have emotions. That I wouldn't just keel over at the experience.

Now, I just had to find someone I wanted to share that time with forever more.
