“Do what?” Greg asked innocently and sat down to eat his breakfast.
“That.”
“Eat? Yeah, it’s kinda necessary-”
“You know what I mean. Do you need to do it in your underwear?”
“I’m home, why would I bother to get dressed?”
“I know what you’re doing. You’re trying to get me all worked up.”
“So you want me to go commando?”
“No! Not while I’m still sleeping on the couch.
“And there’s nothing sexual about my undies. No unnecessary holes, no
dirty limericks.”
“What about those you were wearing yesterday? The ones that has “WOW”
printed all over the backside.”
“Are you saying my backside isn’t WOW-worthy?”
“It is WOW-worthy, but could you save it for later. Whenever that later is….”
Greg gave him a teasing look. “Last time I jumped into bed with you as soon
as you wanted to. This time I wanna make you sweat.”
“I’ve been sweating for a month. And to top it all off, you had to do that
cupboard thing….”
“What cupboard thing?”
“Switch stuff from the top shelf’s to the bottom, so that you have to bend
over to get it. You’ve definitely been bending over way more than normally.”
“You don’t like the sights?”
“I like them, but it’s frustrating! Like looking at travelling brochures and
thinking you’ll never get to go there on vacation.”
“Travelling brochures….” Greg repeated. “I’m not sure if I should be flattered
or insulted. What kind of a brochure?”
“What do you mean?”
“Glossy one? With nice covers?”
“Definitely.”
“Good, because I will not allow you to compare my ass to anything less than
a five star resort.”
“I’ll remember that.” Nick leafed through the morning paper. “This is nice,
though.”
“What?”
“Working days. On weekends we can have long mornings.”
“Yeah. I’m so used to days now that I wake up at six every day, even
without the alarm.”
“And then you turn over and go back to sleep.”
“Only on weekends.”
“I can’t even turn over or I’ll fall off the couch.”
“Is that you’re way of saying you wanna get into my bed?”
“No, but I do.”
“I’ll consider it.”
“For how long?”
“Are you getting impatient?”
“It’s just natural!”
“Yeah. You want to hear a compliment?”
“I’m listening.”
“I’m kinda proud of you. Over a month and you made it without sex. Even
with me around.”
“So I was right, you’ve been testing me.”
“Just a little bit. I wanted to see if we can live together before we bring
sex into the mix.”
“I understand that, but this conversation is so frustrating…. Can we talk
about something else?”
“Sure. Name a topic.”
“What do you want to do?”
“About what?”
“The weekend. It’s seven thirty and Saturday morning. We got all weekend.”
“Weeeeelllllll…” Greg tilted his head back and thought about it. “I was
thinking I could go on a little weekend trip.”
“Where?”
“I’m not sure if you know it. It’s highly exclusive.”
“And they let you in?”
“They practically beg me to come and stay as long as I can.”
“Is it expensive?”
“In my case it’s pretty cheap.” Greg grinned and gulped the last of the coffee
straight from the pot.
“G, that’s really gross. Can’t you use a mug? Anyway, when are you leaving?”
“Right now, I don’t wanna waste my weekend. Get up and drag your holiday
resort to my bed.”
That was the point where Nick’s timing failed. He was taking a sip from his
mug, but the mouthful of coffee ended up all over the table. “G-g-g-greg….
Are you serious?”
“You’ve been staring at my resort for the past month, I deserve a weekend
getaway. And you really need to work on your reaction time. In the old days
you would have stripped yourself naked under ten seconds.”
“I just want to make sure.”
“You’re wasting my weekend. Get naked and get in bed.”
“Are you timing me?” Nick grinned.
“Yep. I f you make it to my bed, minus your clothing, under fifteen seconds
I`ll cuff you.”
“What if I need sixteen?”
“Then I’ll cuff you and blindfold you.”
“That’s not fair!”
“It’s up to you. Your time starts Now.”
