face, down his neck, over his shoulder. It was working, and soon he felt like he could slide off of Ryan, so he wasnt squishing him.
    But Ryan held him close, not wanting him to go. He felt like Jake was keeping him grounded and safe, and it didnt hurt to breathe so much. Jake just lifted himself to rest on one elbow, leg thrown over Ryans hip and his hand wandering over Ryans hard chest and stomach, making Ryans breath hitch for a different reason.
    “How did I get so lucky? It was some twist of fate that brought me to your door, Jake Evans. But I am grateful it did. Ive been feeling alone for a long time, like I needed to keep running, but I dont want that anymore.” He kept touching Jakes back and sides, just letting himself relax.
    “Lets have a bit of a rest, okay? Just an hour or so, then I gotta get the horses in, and we should eat something.” Jake was talking quietly, letting his voice soothe Ryans nerves. Ryan snuggled down and let his head rest over Jakes heart, letting the sound of it lull him to sleep. He had both arms wrapped around Jakes waist, not caring that one was probably going to be asleep by the time they woke up. Jake set the alarm on his watch before giving in to the warmth of Ryans body pulling him under.
    Jake woke up and saw that his alarm was about to go off, so he turned it off and untangled himself from Ryan gently before kissing him on the forehead and quickly grabbing his clothes. He snuck out to get dressed in the hall and headed outside to call the horses in, making sure each one had what it needed before heading back into the house. The sun was low in the sky, and it was a beautiful evening. Jake went into the kitchen, grabbed a beer from the fridge, and reflected on his day while starting a simple supper for him and Ryan.
    Jake thought about how Ryan had treated him that afternoon, like he was someone precious who needed to be cherished, and Jake realized he hadnt felt like that before in his life. It was something he could get used to, though, and he was kind of awed at how much his life had changed in such a short time. Jake had known he was lonely, but he didnt realize how much until Ryan kissed him for the first time. The thought made him smile, and that was how Ryan found him when he wandered into the kitchen.
    Jake looked over and saw Ryan standing there in his jeans, barefoot, shirt thrown over his shoulders but not buttoned, with a shy smile on his face, like he was unsure of his welcome.
    Jake put down the fork he was using and was across the room in three long strides, pulling Ryan up against him before leaning down to claim Ryans lips in a passionate kiss.
    Ryans hands came up to hold onto Jakes shoulders for support, because Jakes kiss was leaving him literally weak in the knees. Jake pulled back a bit before resting his forehead on Ryans.
“Hi, did you sleep well?”
    Ryan nodded before giving in to the urge to run his fingers up and down Jakes strong arms, loving the feel of the muscles twitching under his touch. Ryan kissed Jakes jaw, loving the feeling of the stubble under his lips.
    “You shouldve woke me. I wanted to help with the horses.”
Jake smiled. “Dont worry; there is plenty to keep you busy around here.” He raised his eyebrows suggestively, causing Ryan to chuckle.
“You know, I came here to work, not to be your sex toy.”
Jake nuzzled down into Ryans neck, loving the warm, still-sleepy smell that lingered there. “God, you smell good.” His tongue darted out to lick Ryans neck, causing the smaller man to shudder. “Mmm, taste good too.” He hugged Ryan tighter for a minute before letting him go and turning back to the stove. “Suppers almost done, and Im starving.” Ryan started moving around, grabbing plates and silverware, setting the table, liking how it felt to just be around Jake, not having to talk, just being there.
They ate, talking about nothing and everything. Ryan told Jake stories about his family, the brothers and sisters he was
