Dixon's Duty (8 page)

Bryan shrugged. “I’m more upset that they got into a physical fight. That can’t keep happening. As far as the relationship goes, I dunno. I always thought he was okay. He is a bit old for her.”

“You’re not unhappy they’ve been sleeping together? I figured that might set you off.”

“I’ve known for a long time Sami’s not a virgin. There was a pregnancy scare back in high school… Let’s just say we squeaked by on that one. Her mom got her to a doctor and on birth control. Since then, I’ve had this ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ thing going on.”

“Yeah, I probably would, too, if Julie had lived longer. I escaped that particular horror. It’s different with a son, for some reason.”

Bryan smiled. “Two daughters. I suppose it would be, but I don’t really know.”

“I gotta tell you something, and I hope you don’t think I was presumptuous. I told Adam we were going to be watching him like hawks, so he’d better treat Sami right.”

“Thank you. That was very cool.”

“Got to thinking maybe I overstepped my boundaries.”

“Not a bit.”

He exhaled with relief. “Great. Then I’m hoping it won’t be presumptuous to suggest that I’d like to get on over to your place so we can fuck our brains out.”

“Not in the slightest. That’s always been the plan, if you’ll recall.” He glanced at his watch. “We’re just about three hours behind schedule. Are you hungry? We could drive through some place.”

Dix started up the car. “Only hungry for one thing. After that’s been satisfied, we can discuss dinner.” He drove towards the house.

Bryan ran a hand over Dix’s thigh. “I like the way you think. And I
loved
watching you work tonight. Got me very excited, seeing you all police-like.”

Glancing sideways, Dix waggled his brows. “Oh yeah? Maybe I should bring in my cuffs.”

“Maybe. But you’re not going to need them tonight, stud. I’m ready for whatever you have in mind.”

He pulled into Bryan’s driveway and parked. “First thing I need is a quick shower. There are some days, you just gotta take a rinser and get it washed off, you know?”

“You bring your overnight bag?”

“I did.”

“Perfect.” Bryan led him inside, locking the door and turning on lights as they went. He set out some clean towels. “Help yourself to anything you need. Take your time.”

Dix started to strip. “All I need is about five minutes to clean up. Then I need you, with a rubber and some lube, to join me in the shower. You up for that?”

Bryan rubbed his lips over Dix’s. “I told you, I’m up for anything you suggest, handsome. Your five minutes start now.” He drew his tongue across lightly then pulled away and left the room smiling.

Dix peeled out of his clothes then reached in and turned the shower on hot. He climbed in, allowing the water to flow over him before washing his hair with the fresh-smelling shampoo Bryan had on the ledge. As he was soaping up his body, the curtain parted and Bryan looked in.

“Ready for some company?”

“Damn straight. Been thinking about you.” He glanced down at his rampant erection.

“Um, good thoughts, I hope.” His lover climbed in and closed the curtains. He jumped when the spray hit him. “Damn, that water is hot!”

Dix chuckled. “Sorry. I’ll cool it down.”

“Just a little.”

“Just a little,” Dix repeated and adjusted the knob. He reached for Bryan’s waist and drew him close. “Just for you.”

They gazed into each other’s eyes. “Do you know how happy this makes me?” Bryan finally asked.

“Yeah. As happy as it makes me. It’s nice to have someone to come home to. Did you mean it when you said seeing me at work got you excited?”

“Oh, yeah.” Bryan ran his hands over Dix’s back. “Definitely. I wish I had a more interesting job, so you could say the same. Not sure offering someone a Whisky Sour ever got them hot and bothered.”

“Someone with an alcohol problem, maybe. But don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re more than a bartender, you own the place. Not that it matters to me. I’d still want to fuck you if you were the janitor.”

Bryan smiled. “Because janitors can be pretty hot.”

“You’re hot no matter what you’re doing. Face it, man. Seeing you breathe gets me excited.”

“Aw, that just earned you dealer’s choice tonight. Care to give or receive?”

Dix grinned, rubbing their groins together. “Both. But I’ll give, first. Turn around and assume the position. Hands on the wall.”

“Oh, yes, Officer.” Bryan did as ordered, spreading his feet and placing his hands on the steamy tile.

Dix reached for the lube and foil packet they’d left on the rim of the tub. After squirting the lube into his palm, he used a finger to ream his lover’s ass until the man squirmed. “Mmm, and that’s just one. Wait till I get four in there.”

“Four? Holy shit! Who has time for that? Do two and call it good. I want your cock inside me, and your hands everywhere they can reach.”

Dix inserted a second digit into the warm channel and stretched from side to side. “I love it when you’re hot for me. I could tease you a while longer, see how hot you can really get…”

Bryan jutted his ass backwards a couple of times. “Don’t even joke about that. I’m as ready as I’ll ever be. Fuck me, baby, and fuck me good.”

“Don’t need to ask me twice.” He removed his hand and greased the condom covering his shaft. “Here we go. Ready or not.”

“Ready,” Bryan groaned, one fist pounding the wall. “So ready.”

Dix inched his cock forward until he was balls-deep. He sighed for a moment at the glorious tightness, then drew out slowly and began the thrusting rhythm he knew they both loved.

“Good. Yes, that’s it.”

“You’re good,” Dix muttered through gritted teeth. “I could fuck you forever.”

“Gonna hold you to that. Grab my cock and jerk me off. Won’t take much.”

Dix rested his forehead against one of Bryan’s shoulder blades. He curled his fingers around the full, throbbing shaft and for a moment, he wished he could see it…taste it. But he was more than satisfied with his current position. Tightening his grasp, he thrust and tugged in motion with his fucking.

“Damn, yeah. Oh, God. Told you it wouldn’t take much.”

“Shame to waste that sweet cum, but you’re gonna have to spray the wall this time, lover. Wouldn’t miss this fuck for the world.”

“Come on, then. Do it like you mean it!”

Dix groaned at the good-natured coaxing and quickened his pace. Bodies melded, he applied just the right amount of pressure to the pulsing shaft he could only envision… They both shattered. Moans filled the room as they came in unison. Dix stayed with him as long as he could then had to stop and catch his breath.

Bryan rested his head against the wall. “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” he muttered.

“Again? So soon?”

He chuckled. “Maybe. You bring out the best in me, man. I think I might be able to go again with you in charge.”

Dix kissed all over his lover’s wet back and finally, regretfully, pulled out. He chucked the condom into the nearby trash can then adjusted the water temperature to make it warmer. “Gotta turn it up, babe. We’re cooling off fast here.”

“Not me.” Bryan sighed as he turned to face Dix. “I’m still cranking at a hundred degrees Fahrenheit.” He grabbed Dix’s face and planted a loud, sloppy kiss on his mouth. “Damn, baby, it just gets better every time. That was amazing.”

“Yeah, it was. You’re amazing.” Dix kissed him back, open mouthed, as hungrily as he’d ever kissed anyone. When he pulled back for air, he murmured, “I am totally, completely infatuated with you. I don’t care what else happens. If I died tonight, I’d be the happiest man on earth.”

“After me, that is. I’m fucking giddy as a schoolgirl. But let’s not test out that dying thing. I’m not finished with you, yet.”

Dix smiled. “Really glad I don’t have to leave tonight. I think we’re gonna have one hell of an evening.”

“And it’s off to a very good start. What do you say we rinse off real quick then throw on a couple robes? I’ll whip us up something to eat. I make a mean stir-fry—it’s fast and tasty.”

“Sounds like a blow job. Just kidding. I’d love it. But I didn’t bring a robe.”

“I’ve got a robe for you, and I might have a blow job, too.”

Closing his eyes, Dix stuck his face under the water. He pulled back and shook his head to clear the droplets. He smiled at Bryan. “That settles it. I’m never going home.”

The weekend flew and by Sunday, Dix
really
wished he didn’t have to leave. He and Bryan had got very comfortable, sharing more in common than either of them could have guessed. They went to his townhouse to pack another
bigger
bag, and ended up making love in the whirlpool tub.

“Damn, this is nice.” Bryan leant back against the edge. “I could enjoy one of these.”

Dix sat between his legs, his back to Bryan’s chest. “You’re welcome to use this one anytime you want.”

Bryan nibbled his earlobe. “Then what are we doing packing your stuff to go to my place?”

Dix grinned. “Yours is closer to work. I guess we figured the shorter commute would give us more time in bed each morning?”

“I guess.” Bryan ran his hands over Dix’s chest. “We may have to rethink that decision at some point. Because this is
very nice
.” He glanced around. “The whole place is. Did you live here with your wife?”

“No! I bought it after the divorce. She’s never been here.”

Bryan chuckled. “Doesn’t sound like there’s much love lost between you two.”

“Not anymore. We were friendly for a while, but she lost it when she found out I was seeing other men. Got really nasty. It wasn’t pleasant. I think our bickering was part of the reason Jared enlisted in the Marines and moved so far away.”

“Did he take sides, or was he cool?”

“Definitely not cool. He didn’t actually ‘take sides’, but he’s his mother’s son. Let’s put it this way, he calls her once a week and I hear from him regularly—once a year on my birthday.”

“Ouch.” Bryan hugged him. “That hurts.”

Dix shrugged. “It did, but I’m over it. I love him and he knows it. How he chooses to treat me is totally up to him.”

“I know, but still.” Bryan kissed his temple. “Sorry, babe.”

“Thanks. Hey, I just realised the station hasn’t called all weekend.”

“This is a good thing.”

“A very good thing. I hope it keeps up.”

“Me too, for your sake. And for the people of Kansas City, of course. I want everyone to stay safe, but especially you. I have a newly vested interest in you.”

“You do, huh?” Dix rolled over so their stomachs touched. He pressed his lips against Bryan’s, and their kiss was slow and passionate.

Tongue batted against tongue as desire increased. He rubbed his groin against his lover’s and felt both their cocks respond.

“Mmm.” Bryan drew back for air. “So soon? You think we’re up for that?”

“You kidding me? We’re forty-five, not ninety-five. Besides, my sexual appetite has quadrupled since I met you.”

Bryan grinned. “Yeah, me too. Ain’t it great?”

“Very great. So come on. My turn to play.”

They dried off and raced to the bed, flopping on top of the comforter. Dix didn’t bother to pull it back. He crawled between his partner’s legs and eyed the erect cock he found there.

Bryan patted the mattress next to him. “Flip around so I can play too.”

“Good idea.” He did as directed and moaned when the man touched his shaft. “Very good idea.”

Chuckling, Bryan continued to stroke the length before his mouth took over.

Hips thrusting, Dix followed the movements on Bryan’s cock. Rubbing turned to licking then all out sucking. He deep-throated as long as he could then pulled back and sucked the head, running his tongue through the slit.

He nearly exploded when Bryan did the same thing. Before long they were each on their sides, both sucking with all their might. He felt his lover’s balls draw up and knew release was close. When Bryan grunted, “Now” with his mouth full, Dix allowed himself to relax and let go.

Both of them shuddered, shooting at the same time. Intense pleasure soared through him as he came, then he continued sucking to make sure his job was done.

Bryan pulled back. “God, Dix. That was… Words fail me.”

He chuckled. “Me too, babe. All I know is I loved it.”

“Love. Yeah.” Bryan let the word hang there.

Dix knew what he meant. It was too early, but they both felt it.
Love.

* * * *

He rose and showered at Bryan’s place the next morning. Bryan didn’t have to go in as early, so he lay in bed and watched Dix dress.

“I was thinking it’s time you met Kayla. I thought this might be a good week to plan something since we won’t be so busy. How about dinner one night? I’d invite Sami too, of course. And maybe that boyfriend of hers.” He made a face.

Dix smiled. They’d talked more about Sami. He knew her father was getting used to the idea of the boyfriend. “Why won’t you be as busy?”

“Spring break for most of the schools. Some of them stagger the schedule, but most are off this week.”

“Spring break?” Dix mulled the thought over in his head.

“Guess you don’t have to think about it when you don’t have kids in school anymore.”

“Yeah.” His mind continued to race as he stood in front of the mirror and adjusted his tie.

“You look swell. I could use that necktie to drag you back to bed and have my way with you.”

Dix leaned over him for a kiss. “That sounds like loads of fun, but I can’t be late for the Monday morning briefing. I promise you can have your way with me tonight, how’s that?”

“I suppose it’ll do. One more kiss.” He parted his lips and the kiss was sensual and passionate.

Dix pulled back regretfully and smiled. “Later, sexy.” He headed out of the room.

“Hey, you never gave me an answer about dinner!”

He called over his shoulder, “Whatever you want is fine with me. You plan it, I’ll be there.”

“You always going to be this agreeable?”

Dix winked and left.

The homicide briefing offered little new in his case, or the couple of other cases various detectives worked on. Dix spoke up. “I wonder if there’s anything to the fact that it’s spring break vacation for many of the schools around here, and we haven’t had a new victim since Thursday night.”
