“Kurt dreamt about more than the rough squeeze of James’s hands over his jeans. He dreamt of the warmth of his tongue and a sharp bite from his teeth in sensitive places. He dreamt of taking it further, a thought that held more of the sharp edges of delicious reality than any previous fantasy. Finally, he’d dreamt of feeling James’s arms around him as he slept, feeling at once safe and needed, as if every worry could be erased if the right person cared for him.”
