eyes open.
    “Hey there.” Jack’s voice sounded calm. “What time is it?” Lucas crawled over his lover’s body to the nightstand and picked up his watch. “Ten fifteen.”
    “Good,” Jack chuckled. “For a moment there I thought we had slept the night away.” He sat up and reached over to touch the young Brit.
    “Come here, I don’t want to let you go before Sunday afternoon.” Lucas took his hand and dragged him to his feet. “In that case, you’re going to have to take a shower with me then.” Jack pulled Lucas close and kissed him as he stood up, but Lucas played hard to get and made his getaway to the bathroom. He was a little surprised when Jack didn’t immediately follow.
    In fact, he was nicely lathered up by the time he heard Jack enter.
    He could hear the rustle of Jack’s boxers falling to the floor and then there was silence. He was sure the American was watching him, and he took his time touching himself, letting his hands glide over his shoulders, then his belly and thighs. The idea that someone was enjoying the show made him 70 | Z a h r a O w e n s

    slowly grow hard. As he started to gently stroke his cock, he heard Jack behind him and felt strong arms wrap around his stomach.
    “Oooh, slippery!” Jack quipped as he ran his hands approvingly over Lucas’s body.
    “Jeez, what took you so long?” Lucas sighed, “I thought you didn’t want to let me go?”
    Jack laughed as he squeezed Lucas and kissed his neck. “I ordered some food. Have to keep our energy up, because I have the feeling you have quite some strenuous things in store for me.” Lucas turned around and hugged Jack back. “You bet I do, old man.” He cupped Jack’s head and kissed him passionately, letting his arousal touch the other man’s thigh. “Seems you liked what you saw too.” He pulled Jack underneath the streaming hot water and placed his hand on Jack’s chest, stroking it down the slick skin slowly, while he admired his lover’s body. “Can’t say I mind what I see, either.” Jack smiled, shy all of a sudden as he pulled the younger man close again.
    “Don’t tell me she’s never told you how beautiful you are, Jack?” The American wiped the wet strands of hair out of Lucas’s face.
    “Let’s not… talk about that, okay?”
    Lucas leaned in to kiss Jack’s neck. “Well, you are beautiful, you know. You look so good in your smart business suit that all I could think of when I first saw you was how fast I could get you out of it.” Again Jack smiled timidly.
    Lucas gently moved forward until Jack was against the wall of the shower. “Not too cold?”
    The hot water filled the bathroom with steam, so Jack shook his head. “We don’t have a lot of time. They’re going to be here with dinner soon.”
    Lucas shushed him with a kiss, and Jack let himself be silenced. To hell with room service. They were the guests, and if that meant the staff had to leave dinner at the door, then so be it. Decision made, Jack kissed his lover back with total abandon.
    He didn’t know what he wanted to touch first. Lucas’s skin felt smooth and soft underneath his hands, and the fact they were both soaking D i p l o m a c y | 71

    wet, standing underneath the fancy rain shower made it a curiously erotic sensation. Lucas tasted like soap and he would have looked like a little boy with his wet curls clinging to his smiling face, if it hadn’t been for what he was doing to his lover with his hands and mouth.
    Lucas’s tongue trailed down Jack’s neck and shoulder, over his collarbone to his nipple. He only licked the bud slightly, sending shivers down Jack’s spine, then swiftly moved down to Jack’s belly button.
    The young Brit looked up at Jack defiantly as he knelt down in front of his lover, legs spread wide. Lucas touched himself, slowly stroking his erect cock. Jack saw everything as if it was playing in slow motion. Lucas was looking up at him, his eyes almost black with want, when he opened his mouth and teasingly slowly enveloped his lover’s bone hard erection with his lips. Jack took a sharp breath in, trying not to come right that instant. As he watched his cock move slowly in and out of Lucas’s mouth, he needed all his self-control not to thrust forward, but it was to no avail as he felt his belly grow tight.
    “Luke, I’m….” Jack squeezed out before he came down Lucas’s throat with a loud moan. He stood against the wall, Lucas’s hand on his hip, when he felt his legs
