Grayson and Linc walked in. "That was easy." He grabbed Linc's arm and pulled him down the hall. "Let's talk." He all but pushed Linc in his room and slammed the door. "Now, what?"

Linc shook his head. "I don't want to talk about it, Gray. I'm tired." He sighed. He was exhausted.

Grayson just walked up and pulled him in for a hug. He didn't say anything. He felt Linc wrap his arms around him and he sighed. "This is nice."

Linc nodded in spite of himself. He was cursing because this was so nice.

Grayson released him. "Okay. Take off your gear and lay down. Shut up. Just do it."

He knew Linc would argue. Grayson took his off and Linc followed. "Now, lay down. Just do it." He shoved Linc to the bed and slid in beside him. He pulled up the blankets. "Just get some sleep. You look like shit." He smiled.

"Fuck you, Gray." Linc glared. He rolled away from Grayson and actually fell asleep. Grayson wrapped around him and dozed off listening to Linc's steady breath. He was tired too.

Linc slept so well. He didn't have any crazy dreams. He was relieved. It was dark out when he opened his eyes. He inhaled when he realized that Gray was beside him and his arms were wrapped around him. He did something stupid and scooted closer so their whole bodies were touching and he closed his eyes. He just laid there and enjoyed touching Grayson.

Grayson woke and Linc was still sleeping. He figured if Linc woke he would have sneaked out. He was still here so Grayson was taking advantage and pulled him closer.

Grayson felt Linc's hand rub his arm and he almost died. "Are you awake?"

Linc cleared his throat. "Yes. I just woke up." He was terrified to look at his friend. They were cuddled together in bed. "I should get up."

Grayson sighed. "Lincoln. We have to talk."

Linc shook his head. He was so scared that Grayson didn't share his feelings. So many things could go wrong. "No. I'm good. I feel much better now. I got some sleep. I think I was just sleep deprived."

Grayson smiled. "Really? Sleep deprived?" He decided that he was going to take this further. Make Linc either realize that he was in love or drive him away.

Grayson had to do something. He kissed the back of Linc's neck twice. He ran his tongue over his neck and nibbled his ear. "Sure."

Linc couldn't move. He was melted into the mattress as Grayson licked his ear and Linc moaned. He couldn't stop it. Grayson nibbled his ear and kissed his neck and sent goosebumps down Linc's body.

"Is that bad?" Grayson whispered.

Linc couldn't talk. He shook his head. "Fuck!" He was turned on. "Gray..." Linc was about to freak out.

Grayson had enough. He turned Linc and looked in his face. "I am going to show you something. I need to taste you!" He touched his lips to Linc's and things got out of control. Linc didn't hesitate. He kissed Grayson back and they both melted into each other. Grayson was breathless after Linc was done kissing him. His hands were in Grayson's hair.

"Gray!" Linc was screwed and kissed Grayson deeper. "I think I'm gay!" He pulled him down and kissed him again and removed his shirt. He had to touch him. They were both breathless as they touched each other.

Grayson loved kissing Linc. He almost tore Linc's shirt as he was removing it. He slowed the kisses and used his tongue as he slid his hands up and down Linc's body. "I think you are gay too! I love kissing you, Linc. I'm...." He kissed him again.

Linc loved touching Grayson. Gray moaned as Linc slid his hands over Grayson's back and up to his hair. Grayson looked at Linc and smiled. Linc smiled and they both started laughing. Linc had no idea why, but he was actually happy.

"This is your fault!" Linc glared and inhaled. "I.." He touched Gray's face and kissed him gently. "I love kissing you! Holy shit, I'm gay? How did that happen?"

"Maybe it is contagious!" Grayson smiled. "I love kissing you, Linc. Kiss me again." Grayson gazed into Linc's pretty eyes.

Linc sighed and kissed Grayson. He pressed his body to Gray's and pressed harder. He could feel how hard Gray was and he moaned. He kissed Gray again and slid his hands down his body to his pants. He got them unfastened.

"Wait. What are we doing?" Grayson was stopping this. "I have never..."

"Me either!" Linc laughed with Grayson. "I've never thought about it." He laid back. "I did have a dream about it though."

"You did? You dreamed about having sex with me?" Grayson looked at Linc. He laid on Linc and just looked at his face. He kept his hand on Linc's side as they talked. Linc's hands were on Grayson's back.

"Yes! Every time I fell asleep. We made out at a park, we had sex in my room and in the gym, in this room and we had sex in the garage. I couldn't stop the dreams. It was terrible. I was so afraid to go to sleep." Linc felt better after the confession.

"Wait? You told me it was just kissing, once." Grayson glared.

Linc laughed. "I know. I was lying, Gray. I was so freaked out and had no idea what to do."

"So, when you woke up were you aroused or no?" Grayson had to ask. "I'm just curious. If you weren't turned on then it was just some weirdo dream."

Linc smiled. "I was very aroused. I had to take care of it or it wasn't going away! I tried not to but I thought about you and finished the dream. Every time. I felt cursed."

"And you were getting very grumpy." Grayson pointed out.

"Yes!" Linc sighed. "Sorry about being so terrible."

"So was the sex good? Did you like it? I want details!" Gray smiled.

Linc laughed. "It was good and that was what had me worried. You were on top of me, like now. We were naked, and I have no idea how we got there. Dreams are weird. You were inside me...you know and started moving and I woke up. Hard. It was torture."

"Sounds nice." Grayson smiled. "I don't think we are ready for that though. But maybe we can make out. I'm not sure what to do, really! I have known you for seven years, Linc."

Linc nodded. "I know. I ran through all of it in my head. I thought of every possibility. Anything that you might say. I figured I would have to transfer. I didn't mean to say it out loud. I didn't even mean to say it. I know I have been weird for the past two weeks. Now I know why. I have to apologize to the group. They probably hate me."

"They are ready to beat you." Grayson smiled. He leaned in and kissed Linc. They both moaned and the kiss lengthened. Linc slid his hands into Gray's hair. Gray put a hand on Linc's face as the kiss slowed down and they melted. Grayson wasn't moving as they kissed each other.

Linc inhaled. "I am gay!"

Grayson nodded. "Yes, you are!" He kissed him again. " I love this. I love kissing you. Are you okay with this? Maybe we shouldn't tell anyone."

"Why?" Linc stared. "They will be pissed if they find out."

"I know but I also know that you are freaking out. If you want, we can keep this quiet." Grayson didn't know what to do. "It's not that I'm embarrassed, you're hot. But I don't know how they will take it."

"What about my parents?" Linc stared. He covered his mouth. Fuck, his parents would not be okay with this.

Grayson laughed. "You are a grown man, Linc."

Linc nodded. "I know but they will disown me, Gray."

"I love it when you call me Gray." Grayson melted. He kissed Linc.

"So, how did you know you wanted me?" Linc had to ask.

Grayson turned red. "No. We are good now."

"What?"

"The first fight we were in together. We got along so well. I was crazy about you and then we showered together. I know how that sounds. We were in the shower at the same time. I couldn't stop checking you out! I talked to Tyler and he said you were very straight and told me about your homophobic parents so I stayed quiet." Grayson smiled. "I would rather have you as a friend than not at all. I couldn't risk it."

Linc stared. "So, seven years?"

Grayson nodded. "Yes. Seven years. I have had a crush on you for seven years."

Linc touched Gray's face and had a very serious expression on his gorgeous features. "I'm sorry."

Grayson smiled in his pretty eyes. "It's fine. I'm glad we're here right now. I was afraid you would never talk to me again. It's been a nightmare for the past two weeks. I just thought you were mad that I was gay. I know what you said but I was terrified I would lose you."

Linc shook his head. "Nope. You're not losing me, Gray." He ran his hands down Grayson's body and kissed him. "If this is a dream, I will be pissed."

Grayson laughed. "Me too. Should we go see if there are leftovers?"

"Yes! I'm starving." Linc kissed Gray and Gray ran his mouth to Linc's ear and gently nibbled. "We're coming back here, Lincoln."

Linc nodded.
