the partition. With his free hand, he snapped the latch on the door, giving them a semblance of privacy. He then leaned forward to whisper, “I was glad for the counter too, because what you were doing to my back with that hand of yours…” He lightly kissed Jack’s temple then leaned his head against the older man, pressing his body against him as well. He could feel Jack’s free hand tentatively moving across his back, just like that first time in the kitchen, and Lucas almost moaned when that hand retraced their first real touch.
Lucas’s right hand and Jack’s left hadn’t parted since their first contact here in the men’s room, but now Lucas could feel Jack moving his hand to gently cradle his head. Their lips were almost touching. He could feel Jack’s heat radiating off him and his breath ghosting across his face.
There was a moment’s hesitance when they looked into each other’s eyes, and then Lucas felt himself being pulled into a kiss. Chaste at first, just their lips touching, he could feel Jack open up to him slowly but surely.
He could feel the hunger rising in the older man and responded by eagerly sucking on the American’s lower lip.
At that moment, Jack pulled away as much as he could, pinned between Lucas and the partition, panting.
Lucas, feeling confused, somewhere between rejection and awkwardness, tried to give him a bit more space, but Jack wrapped his arms around his lean frame and pulled him close to his chest. “Oh God, Lucas, I didn’t mean to push you away, I’m just… please tell I’m not making a huge mistake here, that what I feel is real and not some delusion.”
The Brit ground his body against Jack’s. “Does this feel real enough to you?” He felt some of the tension flood away under Jack’s tight grip so he pulled his head back and smiled. “Ever since that night at the embassy… I just never figured you…”
Jack pulled him into a desperate kiss again, this time hungry and unbridled. Lucas could feel the American’s tongue in his mouth and gave into him completely, pulling away after what seemed like forever, partly to catch his breath but also because he felt his body reacting to the other man’s growing arousal. “If we don’t stop now, I don’t think I could stop before…”

Jack let go of the Brit, chuckling. “Yeah, I know…” They were standing, leaning against opposite walls of the cubicle, still holding hands, almost afraid to let go, but eventually they ended up moving away from the wall together to step outside.
“I’ll go first,” Lucas offered, “See if the coast is clear.”
“Yeah…” Jack said softly, close to him. “I hope no one walked in here, because I don’t know how quiet we were.” First Lucas and then Jack stepped out of the cramped stall and checked their appearance in the mirrors on the opposite side of the men’s room.
Lucas looked over at Jack. “Hang on…” He moved behind the American and pulled at the bottom of his jacket, then wiped his hands across Jack’s shoulders.
“Thanks, Maria…” Jack’s quip startled Lucas. “She always does that too, I’m sorry…”
“No, you’re not,” Lucas answered, now smiling lopsidedly as he straightened his tie and tucked down his own jacket.
Both men smiled as they walked out into the outside world again.
“OH , and I thought it was just us ladies who couldn’t go to the little girl’s room alone.”
The two men turned upon hearing Maria’s mocking tone and saw the women standing against the outside wall of the men’s room.
“Lucy saw you two disappear in there and so we decided to wait here to tell you the news.”
“Yeah, and you two took forever,” Lucy added, rolling her eyes.
“So what’s the news?” Jack asked.
“Lucy and I are going to spend next weekend in Amsterdam. It’s about time she saw a bit of Europe. She’s been here almost a year, and I can’t believe, Lucas, that you haven’t taken
