Nate
There's a shadow just behind me
Shrouding every step I take
Making every promise empty
Pointing every finger at me
Shrouding every step I take
Making every promise empty
Pointing every finger at me
”Not just someone,” Nate insisted, nearly rolling his eyes, ”another man.” Even saying it out loud felt exciting. Despite his bravado though, he spared a glance around, making sure they were still completely alone. His next words came out in an exaggerated whisper, Nate leaning conspiratorially closer to Sam. ”Fuck, if I was back home I’d be getting my head kicked in already.”
Sams body language told him everything he needed to know. Not interested. At least, not right now. Nate hadn’t missed the way the other mans eyes roamed over him, the little gasp of breath. There was a whole new world here, it wasn’t as if he had to jump on the first cute guy he met. There had to be options.
The offer of a place to stay, after everything, clearly surprised him, and for a moment his lighthearted persona dropped, hard, suspicious eyes looking over Sam with a new intensity. Nate really didn’t think Sam could be a danger to him. He was smaller, more nervous and submissive. It would be easy to overpower him if he needed to. With that thought, his smile came back, and he moved back, still leaning back on the wall. ”A place to stay would be great. I can make it up to you, once I get something running.”
