be just his type, if it had boobs.
Levi
kept his videos in the lower cabinets, in haphazard stacks. Considering the
rest of his house was almost painfully neat, the things Will found in cabinets
and storage areas were usually a mess. The little psychology he’d had in
college would most likely tell him there was a reason for that. And just
knowing the man he’d have to agree— Levi was all about appearance.
For
going on sixteen years, the Levi he knew was very much like his brother. Quiet,
cold, almost calculating in his calm persona, and then there was that bit on
the evening news back in the summer. Levi, obviously aroused, wearing little
more than smeared lip gloss and eyeliner, being…nothing like the Levi he knew.
His eyes were alive with a fire Will had never seen before. His smile… real.
For the first time ever, he’d seen Levi smile a real goddamned smile. For a
moment he wondered if Jude was hiding away the part of him that made him human.
He wondered if Jude had ever come out of his cold shell with some woman who did
to him what Tracy did for Levi.
He
listened to the wind howl and the man on the couch tap a pen. The silence and
his thoughts unnerved him. Levi’s taste in movies was incredibly bad…chick
flicks, the man had chick flicks for fuck sake. Will rifled through Levi’s
collection. Nothing but stupid chick flicks and weepy dramas. There was even
season of Downton Abbey . Ahhh hell no! “Levi, man, where did you hide the guy movies?” But at least his mind
stopped wandering to things that didn’t concern him, like what Jude would look
like after sex, if he would go back to his text book and pen tapping as if it
had never happened in the first place.
He
heard Jude chuckle and determined to stop the images from dancing in his mind
he dug ever deeper into the piles of movies. Some still had shrink wrap on
them. But Will knew that way of life too, he didn’t judge. He had several
unopened packages in his house—movies, wines, whatever—things he was holding
until the offseason. Now it was the offseason, and he had nothing left.
He
found a paper bag stuffed in the very back corner, completely hidden by movies.
His skin prickled. “Now we’re cooking with gas. No one goes to that much
trouble to hide movies unless it’s porn.” He pulled one of the cases out. There
was no label, just a disk inside with the ubiquitous punny titles that only porn was capable of producing. He laughed, and without a
second thought, he popped the disk into the player and went back to the couch.
He
pressed play and grabbed a throw pillow. Jude hogged the only blanket in the
room, but the heat came back on just as the legal disclaimers appeared on
screen.
“Are
you seriously going to watch that right now?” Jude didn’t look up from his
book. He wrote in blue ink on the yellow paper, the cheap pointy cap on his pen
already a chewed mess.
“You watched Jeopardy and I didn’t say
anything. You have your porn. I have mine.” A really fit, really young man
strolled on camera, no shirt, jeans hugging his hips. He had a towel over his
head as if he were drying his hair. The acting was about par for the course,
the scene being one he’d seen a million times. He predicted a surprised naked
girl on the other side in a long coat and very little else. Except… “Are you
shitting me?”
Jude
laughed. He looked up from his notes, his eyes narrowed into a squint to see
the screen in the distance. “What? Did you think Levi was hiding straight porn?
Seriously, he likes dick, or didn’t you get that memo?”
Will
ignored the dig, he fingered the remote his thumb hovering over the eject
button but he didn’t press it. Almost as if he were mesmerized Will continued
to watch as the pizza delivery guy on the screen dropped the pizzas and pushed
the younger guy up against the wall when the kid said he had no cash to tip
him. Pizza guy had the smaller man on his knees. Cocks were out. Jesus, the
pretty boy could take
