*Story continues from last chapter. This is a super long chapter too (longest one I believe), which is also why it took longer to publish.

~~~~~~~~~~

Thomas rested his head against Ethan's as he was trying to catch his breath. Their hands were still clinging onto each other, as Thomas then separated their faces by placing one last kiss on Ethan's temple.

Ethan had a cocktail of emotions bubbling inside of him. He felt extremely giddy about being treated so gentle and affectionately by Thomas. He felt a sense of satisfaction after learning he is attracted to Thomas in all ways possible. And he felt excited about how his blood was starting to flow down south.

Ethan began to complain when he witnessed Thomas begin to button up his shirt from the bottom up. "I was enjoying that, Tommy."

Thomas chuckled as he could feel the genuine enthusiasm from Ethan. The bodyguard felt like they needed take a break since his lips were feeling swollen, and it started with Thomas covering himself up.

"I got to go soon," Ethan reminded Thomas as he had his family dinner soon. "Let's get back to what we were doing just!"

Thomas laughed again as he was knocked onto his back by Ethan. He had just finished buttoning his shirt when Ethan began to undo them from the top down.

"You're really in the mood..." Thomas whispered.

Ethan was shameless as his eyes stared at Thomas' exposed collarbone. It was impossible for him to hide his excitement for the bodyguard, as Ethan had revealed just enough to see Thomas' entire chest.

After worrying for so long that he might physically feel nothing for Thomas, everything was now coming out like a dam bursting open. All of the excessive wondering about whether if he could feel something physical for Thomas, was now flipped and amplified vastly.

Ethan placed both of his hands onto Thomas' waist so that he could hold himself steady. Ethan then descended onto Thomas' side of his neck as he placed several flirtatious kisses onto it.

Ethan was latching onto Thomas' neck as he was becoming obsessed with this part of Thomas' body. All of the flirtatious kisses soon intensified as Ethan became hungry.

Thomas' breathing was fluctuating massively as his arms quickly reached out to hold Ethan's head in place. The sensation of Ethan's soft lips and gentle teasing motion with his tongue, made Thomas needy for more.

Thomas pulled Ethan's head up so that they were now face to face. The knowing smirk on Ethan's face was irresistible as Thomas kissed the life out of it.

Things became more intense when Thomas rolled their bodies over together. Ethan was now pressed underneath as Thomas began to kiss Ethan on a spot under his chin.

Ethan's moan was soon stifled by a groan once he heard his phone going off. Ethan deliberately let it ring as he wanted to ignore the phone call - he was too focussed on having Thomas' lips on everywhere that he could touch.

Thomas was left disappointed as Ethan's phone continued to ring relentlessly. He eventually gave up on their steamy session by kissing Ethan one last time, and then pulling out Ethan's phone for him.

Ethan was still pressed underneath Thomas as the bodyguard didn't move an inch. The other man was still pressed against him as Ethan spoke to the other person on the phone.

"Alright I'm on my way." Ethan immediately groaned - without even looking at his phone screen.

Because he already knew that it was his family waiting for him, Ethan was confident to hang up on Kristen. He then dropped his phone aimlessly on the ground, because his focus was still on the man on top of him.

"We'll continue this another time then." Thomas promised.

Ethan nodded his head as he dejectedly began to button up Thomas' shirt. Once that was done, Ethan was left trying to memorise the lustful and cocky expression on Thomas' face.

"Fuck yeah we will."

~~~~~~~~~~

Dinner with Ethan's family was on the verge of ending soon. It was another pleasant evening with his family as Ethan was in a noticeable fantastic mood.

Javier was the first one to point it out, because he saw how Ethan's politeness levels elevated to a new high. Kristen noticed that Ethan smiled more during the meal, and Harrison thought Ethan laughed more at jokes that weren't even funny.

Ethan used his napkin to wipe his mouth clean from the lemon cheesecake. He was the last one to finish as two butlers soon entered the room to clean their plates.

Javier was finishing his cup of coffee when he had to remind everyone about Friday's event. "The Calidales are hosting the charity gala this Friday, and I would like to remind everyone to be there on time."

Camilla was helping out with the event as she was responsible for the ticket sales. "We are all sold out of tickets, so we should be able to raise a lot of money on Friday."

Kristen was excited as she was given another opportunity go full out with a stunning ball gown. "Me and Harrison have already got our outfits sorted."

"We're carpooling in a private limo with the Carsons," Harrison told the group. He then turned to Ethan so that he could ask, "Do you need a lift? I think we can squeeze you and your date in if you want."

Ethan had been too preoccupied with Thomas that he forgot about the charity gala. Because the Shelton family were an elite household in society, Ethan knew that they were all expected to look the part of a perfect family.

"Do you need me to find a date for you this Friday?" Camilla asked. "We can't have you attend the date alone since everyone will be watching."

It had been a month since his last blind date with Julia, and Ethan knew that he should have realised this topic of conversation was going to resurface soon.

Ethan knew that he should have mentally prepared himself sooner, because everything with Thomas was now starting to come into fruition, and therefore he wasn't going on any more blind dates.

However, Ethan wasn't comfortable with showing Thomas off as his new love interest. He didn't want Thomas to be scrutinised by his way of life. The people that entwined with his family were judgemental, opinionated, and old fashioned.

With being expected to bring a woman, Ethan thought he should comply so that he could try and protect Thomas from the people he tolerated. "I'll sort something out myself."

Camilla was hesitant with Ethan's answer, because she needed Ethan to find a woman that matched their high social status. "Mimi and her mother were really disappointed when you cancelled on Valentine's Day, should I call them up for you?"

"I'm sure Ethan has plenty of dates that are queuing to be with him." Javier assured Camilla as he then turned to Ethan, and gave him a cheeky wink. "Right son?"

Ethan nervously laughed as he just nodded his head. He didn't know if it was true or not, but none of it mattered since Thomas was in the picture.

~~~~~~~~~~

Ethan planned to make sure the both of them had a free afternoon the next day. Thomas only had a few more days left in Ohio, so Ethan wanted to make the most of their time together.

They had just parked the car as Ethan drove them to a secluded hiking spot. Ethan wanted them to enjoy some private outdoor time together, and something physical like a hike was right up Thomas' alley.

Ethan was carrying an oversized backpack that he refused Thomas from looking inside. He wanted it to be a surprise for Thomas as Ethan wanted to make this date perfect.

Thomas chuckled as he watched Ethan wobble as he strapped the backpack on. "You sure you don't want me to carry anything? You look like you're struggling."

"I got this." Ethan groaned.

Thomas was scouting the scenery ahead of them as he enjoyed the nature in the world. The trees were a beautiful shade of green that were covering the entire mountain. The weather was perfect as the bright blue sky was complimented with a warm heat.

Ethan interrupted Thomas' zoning out by poking his side. "Are we ready to go? I want to get up there before tourists start occupying certain areas."

"Lead the way." Thomas gestured as he let Ethan go first.

~~~~~~~~~~

They had been climbing the mountain for about an hour now, and they had only seen a couple of people every now and then. With so few people in the area, Ethan was about to appreciate his time with Thomas even more.

Ethan and Thomas kept walking side by side as they climbed the steep hill. The heavy backpack  wasn't making it any easier for Ethan, but Ethan was just happy to be with him regardless.

"What was your favourite subject at school?" Ethan asked as he was interested in learning more about Thomas.

"I always loved geography." Thomas told Ethan. "That's probably why I like nature so much I guess. My favourite school trips were whenever we would go to a river, and just enjoy looking at nearby waterfalls."

Ethan never enjoyed geography as he explained, "I always had trouble when learning the state capitals."

"You know there's more to geography than locations, right?" Thomas laughed. "What about you, what was your favourite subject in school?"

Ethan always hated school because there wasn't anything he was passionate about. "I grew up in a private school, so things were a lot more stricter and soul sucking where I lived."

Thomas nudged his sides into Ethan's as he laughed with him. "There had to be something you liked about school."

Ethan was silenced momentarily as he had to think about the subject he hated the least. "P.E? I did always love climbing the rope at gym class, and also climbing the monkey bars every day. I could live my dreams by imitating Curious George back then."

Thomas could easily imagine a younger Ethan being so chaotic and cheeky. Thomas knew that Ethan hasn't changed one bit since he grew up,  and Thomas imagined that he always had the same cheeky smile he loved seeing.

"The younger you sounded super cute," Thomas imagined. "So what stopped making you so cute then?"

Ethan looked at Thomas once he heard the other man snort with laughter. Ethan couldn't help but laugh along as he playfully nudged Thomas' sides.

"Puberty," Ethan laughed. "I had a growth spurt, got some muscles, and changed my hairstyle."

Thomas was walking even closer to Ethan, so that he could easily reach his hand to hold. He kept his eyes facing forward as he tried to play it cool - about how much he wanted to hold Ethan's hand as they walked.

Ethan's heart fluttered slightly as he felt the warmth from Thomas' hand. It was like every time Thomas would show him some sort of affection, and Ethan hated how much he loved it.

Ethan peeked a glance at Thomas, and saw how he had no regrets showing on his face. Ethan was also calm as he squeezed Thomas' hand in return. He brushed Thomas' captured hand with his thumb, and a smile reached both of their faces as they continued their path up the mountain.

~~~~~~~~~~

Thomas regretfully let go of Ethan's hand once they reached a respectful height at the mountain. They made it to the edge of the cliff where there was a comfortable amount of walking space.

Thomas stood on the outskirts of it as he was appreciating the view. He couldn't see anyone around them for miles, so Thomas could bask in the beautiful nature that was the Earth.

Ethan was kneeling on the ground behind Thomas as he was unloading his backpack. There was a blanket that Ethan was setting up for them to sit on, and there were also some tubs of food for them to snack on.

Thomas was still so captivated by the view that Ethan had to approach him, and get his attention by tapping his shoulder.

"Just come sit with me for a second." Thomas gestured as he sat on the cliff first.

Ethan obliged as he joined Thomas on the ground. His sides were pressed against Thomas' as he took in the sight in front of him.

Thomas couldn't think of any words to describe how he felt at the moment. He just wanted to take the time and acknowledge how fulfilled he felt right now.

Looking at the nature filled space in front of them, and with Ethan sitting right besides him, Thomas was in a state of pure happiness and bliss.

Thomas turned Ethan's face towards his, and caressed the closest side of Ethan's face. Seeing the shy smile on Ethan's blushing face made Thomas feel the need to lean forward and kiss Ethan.

It was just a single kiss that made Ethan's heart race nonetheless. Thomas' lips had gently brushed his own, and the drawn out kiss had filled Ethan with butterflies.

Thomas soon noticed the little picnic area that was suddenly behind them. "What did you set up over there?"

Ethan looked in the same direction to see what Thomas was looking at. "Nothing big. Just a couple of sandwiches, and a few snacks I guess."

"This is just so sweet of you Ethan," Thomas admired. "Should we go and eat?"

Ethan nodded his head as they both sat around the food together. Ethan opened all the containers, and allowed Thomas to see what they were about to eat. There was egg and cress sandwiches, scotch eggs, cheese cubes, grapes, mini pretzels, and bottles of water.

"I thought you said this was nothing big!" Thomas laughed.

Ethan put a few pretzels in his own mouth as he then picked up a cheese cube. He prepared himself to throw the cheese as he told Thomas, "Open."

Thomas grinned as he let Ethan throw the cheese at him. The first attempt easily landed in Thomas' mouth, and Thomas chewed on the cheese with a smile on his face.

"Your turn." Thomas said as he returned the gesture when he picked up a pretzel.

With several fake throws, the bodyguard let the pretzel fly towards Ethan. It resulted in disaster when the rogue pretzel hit above one of Ethan's eyes.

Thomas felt bad for missing his shot despite hearing Ethan's laughter. The bodyguard made up for his mistake by moving closer to Ethan, and quickly kissing the area he accidentally hit.

"I bet that was just an excuse for you to come closer to me..." Ethan pointed out as he noticed how Thomas was now sitting right adjacent to him.

"We may never know."

~~~~~~~~~~

With all the food now finished between them, they were now lying down on the blanket together. They were relaxing side by side as they were enjoying the last couple of minutes they had before they started heading back.

Ethan had tomorrow's charity gala on his mind as he had to think about bringing a date to the event. "You want to come with me to a black tie event tomorrow?"

"What's it for?" Thomas asked.

"We have these friends of the family that are hosting a charity gala tomorrow. It's an annual event kind of thing, and I need to bring a plus one to the event." Ethan explained. "Usually I would have a date, but this year I have no one."

Thomas leaned on his elbow as he looked at Ethan. "So you want me as a date?"

Ethan sighed with sadness as he mirrored Thomas' position. "I need you there as my plus one."

Thomas' voice sounded more disappointed than he intended it to be. "Oh?"

Ethan disliked the saddened tone of Thomas' voice, as he tried to reason about the situation. "It's this dumb thing where I need a date to make our family look prestigious and all that. I can't take another person to the gala, because it feels like I would be cheating on you."

Thomas was listening as he was nodding his head. "So that's why you only want me there as a friend?"

"I'm not ashamed of you Thomas, I promise." Ethan grabbed Thomas' hand and tried make sure Thomas knew he was telling the truth. "But all these people at the event are so uptight and judgemental. I just don't want their prejudice to effect us."

Ethan was taking Thomas' silence as a bad sign. Ethan didn't want to go to this event alone, because he's been to too many events where he felt isolated. He was finally happy being with another person, but Ethan knew that people weren't going to be accepting when they found out he was seeing a man.

Ethan hated the idea of disappointing Thomas, and having the same man hate him. "Please say something..."

Thomas had been silent because he was collecting his thoughts. He tried to organise them so that he could articulate them to Ethan in the best way possible. "Ethan, I understand."

Ethan looked hopeful as he asked, "You do?"

"You're a big COO from a very wealthy family, and you have thousands of people watching your every move." Thomas had a gentle smile on his face as he tried to come off as understanding, "You're trying to live under their expectations because it makes life easier for you, and there's no harm in that."

Ethan felt like he was being completely selfish with how he was treating Thomas. He thought the bodyguard deserved better than being treated like a dirty little secret, and Ethan felt even more selfish because he didn't want to let Thomas go.

"I'm okay with keeping us behind closed doors," Thomas assured Ethan. "And I'm more than happy to just be your plus one tomorrow."

Ethan couldn't fathom how considerate and understanding Thomas was. He felt the sincerity from Thomas, and Ethan couldn't process how Thomas was reacting so nicely about it all.

"You're amazing..." Ethan whispered.

Thomas shrugged his shoulders as he casually chuckled. "I try."

Thomas finished the conversation by standing up, and placing a long kiss on Ethan's temple. "Come on, let's start heading back to the car."

~~~~~~~~~~

Parking the car on the driveway, they both soon entered the house together as Ethan dropped his backpack by the door. Taking Thomas' hand along the way, Ethan pulled Thomas into the living room.

Thomas had a questioning look on his face when he saw the sly smile from Ethan. He soon began to laugh once he felt himself get pushed onto the couch. This was because Ethan was a man on a mission, and Ethan climbed on top of Thomas' lap so that he could begin to kiss him.

Things were quickly getting heated between them as Ethan was making himself comfortable. His hands were going crazy as they were caressing everywhere on Thomas' torso - and Ethan was marvelling the sound of Thomas' soft moans.

Ethan felt adventurous as his hands began to descend Thomas' body. After his hands skated around Thomas' abs through his shirt, Ethan knowingly began to massage Thomas' thighs.

Thomas held Ethan's adventurous hands in place as he made Ethan look at him. "We've been here before... You don't need to force yourself into doing this."

Ethan was shaking his head at Thomas, because Ethan felt confident in knowing what he was about to do. "I don't feel pressured into doing any of this - I want to do this."

"Ethan..." Thomas whispered. "This is a big step if we go through with this."

"I know that I don't need to prove this to anyone, but this is something I want to do - for the both of us." Ethan kissed Thomas as he was mentally prepared to take things slightly further between them. "What do you think?"

Thomas answered Ethan by flipping their positions, so that he was now on top of Ethan. Thomas wanted to give Ethan the same amount of attention, and so he began by lifting Ethan's shirt.

Thomas had grabbed the bottom of Ethan's shirt, and lifted it over his head. He absentmindedly threw it somewhere in the room as Thomas began to place soft kisses down Ethan's torso.

It was torture for Ethan as he felt Thomas was deliberately going slow. He watched how Thomas started by placing a kiss onto his shoulder, and then venture further down his body.

Thomas teased Ethan by sticking his tongue out and gently flicking one of Ethan's nipple. Ethan reactively grabbed two handfuls of the couch as he felt the tingling sensation flow through his body.

Thomas looked up at Ethan's body and into his eyes. He had a smirk on his face when he told Ethan, "We're only just getting started..."

Ethan's eyes were bulging with confidence, and he was getting excited from the idea of having Thomas all over him.

Soon enough, Ethan was getting even more stimulated as one of Thomas' hands were placed on top of his groin. Thomas' firm hand was gently massaging the area, whilst his mouth was focussed on kissing every ab on Ethan's stomach.

Thomas could feel how hard Ethan was quickly growing underneath his hand. Thomas then looked directly into Ethan's eyes as he wanted to watch Ethan's reaction once he dipped his hand inside Ethan's underwear.

The sight was not one that Thomas was ever going to willingly forget, as Thomas could see the euphoria all over Ethan's face. Thomas had a firm grasp on Ethan's hardening cock, and he began to slowly pump it as he felt Ethan forcing him into a kiss.

Placing both hands on Thomas's face, Ethan was deepening the kiss by brushing his tongue with his own. But Ethan was forced to pull back when he moaned with excitement, because of how Thomas brushed the tip of his sensitive penis with his thumb.

"Can I take this off?" Thomas asked as he gestured towards Ethan's pants and underwear.

Ethan nodded his head as he whispered back, "Only if I can do the same to you..."

Ethan's patience was nonexistent as he immediately took Thomas' shirt off.  After seeing Thomas' muscular physique staring back at him, Ethan lunged forward and placed several kisses down the middle of Thomas' chest.

Thomas was beginning to take away Ethan's belt from his jeans. Once the belt flew off, Thomas was stopped from further undressing him because of where Ethan's hand was.

Ethan was daring as he reached inside Thomas' underwear. He had never imagined what another man's anatomy would have felt like, but Ethan was living in the moment as he grasped the warm and hardened flesh.

Ethan looked at Thomas and chuckled. It was because Ethan was enjoying every second of what he was doing, and Ethan wanted to do even more to Thomas - because of how they were both enjoying it.

"I want to see all of you." Ethan lustfully moaned.

Thomas then knelt on the couch as he then began to undo his own belt. Ethan watched Thomas slip out of all his clothes, and he was left memorised by Thomas' hard cock that sprang out of it's confinement.

Ethan was admiring the naked Thomas that was pressed on top of him. He didn't have much time because that was when Thomas began to take all of Ethan's clothes off.

Ethan helped Thomas by lifting his hips up, and that made things easier for Thomas, because his jeans and underwear's came off with so much ease.

Thomas was staring at how Ethan's hardened cock was already leaking with precum. He swiped the liquid with his thumb, as Thomas then used the same hand to steadily pump Ethan's cock.

"Is this okay?" Thomas checked.

Ethan couldn't trust his own mouth to come out with words, so he nodded his head as he stood back and let Thomas take care of him.

Thomas was focussed on giving Ethan's cock several long and firm strokes. The soft whimpers were heaven to Thomas' ears as he wanted to hear more.

"Can I try something else with you?" Thomas asked.

Ethan was taken back that Thomas was even asking for permission. He was a bumbling mess that wanted everything Thomas was willing to offer, "Yeah... Go ahead."

Thomas leaned forward and gave Ethan one more fiery kiss on the lips. Ethan was left wanting more because Thomas pulled back way too quickly, but it was okay since Thomas was kissing his way down Ethan's body.

After the last kiss reached the area under Ethan's naval, Thomas knocked Ethan's fully erect cock with the side of his face. The teasing was sending Ethan wild as he continuously felt Thomas' lips were so close to his cock, but not actually touching it.

"Are you ever-"

Thomas answered Ethan's desperate neediness by wrapping his lips around the head of Ethan's cock. He gave Ethan's cock a gentle suck as he wiped clean the leaking precum that was dripping down it.

"Holy shit." Ethan moaned.

Thomas was meeting all of Ethan's hungry needs by wrapping his lips further down Ethan's cock. Thomas reached halfway to Ethan's erect shaft as he then began to bob his head up and down, sucking every inch that was inside his mouth.

Ethan was reaching out for anything he could hold onto. He ended up reaching out to the back of Thomas' head, as his fingers began to curl into Thomas' hair.

Hearing Ethan's sensual moans made Thomas want to go even further. Inhaling through his nose, Thomas relaxed his throat as he sank down to the base of Ethan's cock.

"Thomas!" Ethan moaned in between hitched breaths.

Thomas had his nose pressed against Ethan's flesh as he swallowed around Ethan'a cock. The feeling of Thomas' closed throat around his cock made Ethan curl his toes as a result.

Thomas had to pull back for air as he released Ethan's cock from his mouth. He looked up at Ethan, and Thomas felt proud when he saw Ethan's panting and flushed face.

After capturing the image in front of him, Thomas was planning to finish Ethan off. He went back down to start sucking on Ethan's cock once again, enjoying all of the feelings that were associated with it.

Ethan felt like he was on the verge of exploding as Thomas' warm mouth was becoming too much for his sensitive cock. Seeing the way Thomas was bouncing his head up and down, and marvelling the feeling of having Thomas's passionately suck him, made Ethan moan even louder.

"I'm so close right now."

Thomas had to acknowledge Ethan by humming along. Ethan's cock was still down Thomas' throat, and Thomas wasn't going to let it go until it spilled with a thick white liquid.

Thomas used his hands to push Ethan's body further into the couch. By doing so, there was more of Ethan's cock that could reach down his throat, and hearing Ethan's quickening moans made Thomas happy to swallow around his cock.

Everything that came out of Ethan's mouth was rushed panting, and extremely heavy moans. He couldn't use any words to let Thomas know he was cumming soon, so he did so by pulling Thomas' head up slightly.

Thomas understood as he then grabbed one of Ethan's hand to hold. After brushing the back of his hand, Thomas was able to let Ethan know that he was waiting for him to cum.

After a little more while of Thomas sucking him off, and using his free hand to pump the other half of Ethan's shaft, Ethan became a blubbering mess because he was cumming.

Ethan's cock was spurting in multiple instances, and Thomas was pumping it so that it will spilling all over Ethan's torso.

"Fucking hell..." Ethan moaned as he watched Thomas milk him dry.

After Ethan felt like he was finished, he pulled Thomas back up to kiss him. He didn't think about how he could taste his own cock in Thomas' mouth - he just wanted to Thomas' lips on his.

Ethan's eyes soon drifted from his own body, and onto Thomas' cock. Thomas' cock was leaking a stream of precum, and Ethan felt bad that he was the only one that found his release.

Ethan reached out to grab Thomas' cock and pump it enthusiastically. The long strokes of Thomas' cock was exciting them both, and Ethan could hear the moans as Thomas went back to kissing him.

Thomas was already close as the sight of Ethan unravelling was helping Thomas reach his climax. Thomas' lips moved to Ethan's neck, and Ethan held Thomas' head there so that he could pump Thomas' cock with his other hands.

"Keep going." Thomas moaned into Ethan's neck.

Ethan had never done anything like this with another man before, but he felt proud that his first experience was a seemingly success. The way that Thomas was pumping himself into Ethan's hand, and the heavy moans coming from Thomas' mouth, signalled Ethan to keep going.

Not far behind and Thomas began to cum. His body was shaking slightly as he erupted all over Ethan's torso. Ethan was watching Thomas' cock all this time, and he was enjoying watching Thomas' reaction on multiple levels.

Thomas soon pulled back with a happy and eager smirk on his face. He looked down at Ethan's body, and could see the white shower all over him. Thomas wanted a taste of it, and he did so by licking the puddle that formed around his abs.

"I'm not kissing you now." Ethan laughed.

"Your loss."
