Love is Always Write Anthology Volume 6

becomes possible."
    Javier held his strong hands between his own.
    "And only with you I feel loved is in a way I've never felt before."
    "So you don't regret it?"
    "Huh, sometimes, when you refuse to try new toys."
    Esteban stared at him, and Javier hugged him.
    "Just kidding. By the way, can we skip the dinner?"
    "No way, unless you want to be expelled from the Hidalgo family."
    "Okay, I'll endure the event because I love you."
    They hugged in silence for a few seconds, nobody dared to disturb their embrace because there was a sublime quality in their union, difficult to describe to onlookers, but still perceivable. Esteban found it hard to believe how much Javier changed his perception and how, slowly but steadily, they both were changing everybody's around them. The eternal power of a love greater than life and death.
    THE END
    Author bio: I live somewhere in the Northeastern United States and write gay fiction, because there are passions that don't fit in any closet. For the record, I must disclose that I shave every day before putting on the makeup. Just in case, we meet, and you notice the stubble under it.
    In 2008, I posted some of my stories on the Aarinfantasy's YAOI Collection Forum under the pen name of Xcc, and because of the positive feedback I got, in 2009, I started to write professionally. Easier said than done, so I'm still doing my best to create entertaining m/m love stories.

MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE

    Two brawny quarterbacks share a post-game moment on the field. They're well-known adversaries, but is the tension between them simply rivalry... or is it something more?

    Dear Author
    These boys are two of America's most popular NFL heart throbs. They've been eying each other for months now. The sexual tension between them is so intense, they're shocked their teammates haven't noticed yet especially with their unconscious desire to touch as much as possible. They can't help but undress one another with their eyes but whenever they get into talking range they always end up taunting each other about who's the best quarterback and always end up pissing each other off.
    Please, Author, tell me how these two get together and make a relationship work when they play for separate teams, live in separate states and work in a 'man's' industry where being gay is a career killer. How have they managed to hold back their desperate desire for each other when they're both possessive and jealous of anyone who touches the other and all they want to do is fuck like bunnies?
    P.S. Contrary to my last sentence, I don't want this filled with lots of sex. I want to feel the sexual tension but with very minimal sex (sex would include anything that allows them to get off, FYI - handjobs, bjs, frotting, etc.). I would like a sweet but intense love story. No girl bits, cheating, menage, open relationship or too much talk of other sexual conquests. Unless they are boasting on the field. I would like banter, please, and lots of it. I wanna see them pissed off to the point they aren't sure whether to punch the other or kiss him.
    * We all know who these guys are but names need to be changed to protect the innocent.*
    Sincerely,
    Nikyta

    "No no no! Fucking Hunter!" Brad slammed his bottle onto the coffee table, foam and beer sloshing out of the mouth to trickle down the sides onto the smooth glass surface. His lip curled in disgust as he watched the replay of the Philadelphia Railers quarterback's throw to complete his fourth touchdown pass of the night.
    "Cam Hunter does it again, going twenty-eight yards to connect with Railers wide receiver Trent Fordham. The extra point is... good! And with that, the Railers are up 31-27 with only thirty seconds left to play. That was extraordinary! Does this man ever stop?" The Monday Night Football broadcasters sang their praises, and Bradley Jameson just sat there, stewing.
    He watched as the play clock ticked down to zero. The players, trainers, coaches, and
