Vince wouldn’t have thought it possible with how he felt just moments ago, but he let out a sigh of relief. He should have known this would be okay because it was with Colby. “I don’t want to jump into anything either. I’m not proud of it, but after everything that went down, I’m skittish. I trust you. I don’t want to make it sound like I don’t, baby.”

Colby gave him a toe-curling smile. “I like it when you call me baby.”

He chuckled. “It kept slipping out. That should have been my first clue.” Vince reached out, twisted a strand of Colby’s hair around his fingers. “I’m sorry you’ve always believed something was wrong with you, but I’m honored it’s me you’re feeling something for. I never thought I would come close to risking this again.”

He pulled Colby, who came easily. He wasn’t a small guy, but still he straddled Vince’s lap the way Vince hoped he would.

“I never thought I could feel this, Vince. It’s been stressing me out. I can’t stop looking at you, thinking about you. I get it now. Why crushes have such a big effect on people. I have my first one at forty years old, and I want to hold on to it, want to see where it will go.”

Vince’s heart banged against his chest. What Colby said was so simple in some ways, but so vast and incredible in others. Who knew he would want to be someone’s crush so badly? “I want to see where it will go too. Let’s just…admit we’re more to each other, don’t put limits on ourselves like we did before, and talk to each other. I want to know what’s going on in that head of yours.” He pulled Colby down and kissed his temple.

Colby brushed his cheek against Vince’s.

This might not make sense to others, how they were doing things, the way they were moving forward while still being cautious. That didn’t matter to Vince because it was right for them. They fit together that way, and Vince couldn’t wait to see where it went.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

Colby

They’d been sneaking around Covington Acres, kissing and touching each other as much as possible. Colby didn’t know why it felt different now than a week or two before, when they hadn’t admitted to having feelings for each other yet, but it did. Like he was a kid, soaking up those feelings, the crush that gave him butterflies in his belly all the time. That secret relationship where he wasn’t ready to tell anyone, but they were also so fucking into each other that it felt impossible to keep their hands off each other. Like Colby would burst out of his skin if he wasn’t touching Vince…kissing him.

And Vince seemed to feel the same about him.

It had been a busy morning at the farm, Colby not getting to work with Vince, but now that he had a moment of downtime, he made his way toward his friend…his boyfriend? Was that a word they should use? He had no idea what they even were other than two friends who’d started hooking up and realized they had feelings for each other. While Colby didn’t want to rush, wanted to make sure he did this right, he couldn’t pretend the thought of being Vince’s boyfriend didn’t make him feel like he should grab on to the nearest tree so he didn’t float into space.

Which was ridiculous.

He was too old for thoughts like that.

But he didn’t care if he was too old. He liked it.

He liked feeling these things for Vince. He wanted to hold on to these moments and never let them go. That had to be a good sign, right? Had to mean this was real. That he wouldn’t all of a sudden realize what he was feeling wasn’t really romantic and he’d just gotten wrapped up in the intensity of their friendship along with the sex. Because then he would end up hurting Vince.

“Psst,” Colby said to Vince, having sneaked up on him while he was climbing off a tractor.

He gave Colby a slow grin in return. “Why do you have a mischievous smile on your face?”

“Why don’t you follow me and find out?” he replied cheekily, then turned and headed for one of the barns. It was a short distance away, so it took a good five minutes to walk there. Colby didn’t turn around to see if Vince was following, but he knew the other man was, keeping a distance, like two guys heading the same direction and not as if anything was about to happen between them.

Colby very much hoped something did happen between them.

He said a silent prayer when he walked into the barn and didn’t see anyone in there. His dick was at half-mast already, just at the thought of fooling around with Vince like this. The farm was a whole lot more fun when Vince was around. It wasn’t his dream, but Vince made it enjoyable in new ways.
