eyes matched his owners. “I know, obvious name, but I was sixteen at the time. Hes smart and fast, but he has a little attitude. He is mostly good-natured, just likes to play tricks now and then. Gotta make sure the gate is double latched when hes out there, because otherwise he escapes.” Jake was rubbing the horses nose fondly, and the horse seemed to be nodding in agreement with the brunet.
Jake walked over to the next stall, and there was a pinto horse, smaller than the other, but beautiful. It was mostly brown, with a white patch on its hindquarters and observant eyes that were a little mistrustful.
“Ryan, meet Beau. He is one of those rescue horses I told you about. His owners were drug dealers, who pretty much forgot he existed and left him to starve. Thank God a nosy neighbor decided that enough was enough and called the sheriff. She got a hold of me, and we went and got him. They were so stoned, they thought it was funny. He was skin and bones, but look at him now.” Jake beamed at the horse with obvious pride, running his hands over the horses neck and shoulders. Ryan looked at the man and the horse and was pretty sure he was in love. With both of them.
He walked up to Beau with his hand held out, letting the animal get to know his scent before moving in to put his face on the horses neck and lovingly touching him everywhere he could reach. Ryan knew a kindred spirit when he saw it, and apparently the horse did too. It wasnt long before his head was turned, resting on Ryans shoulder, while Ryan whispered in his ear.
Jake was awed. He had never seen anything so beautiful in his life. He cleared his throat so he could speak. “Guess we found your horse.”
Ryan looked at him from the other side of the horse, and the happiness Jake saw on Ryans face took his breath away. Jake was pretty sure he had never believed in love at first sight, before now.
They were both still touching the horse, and their hands met by accident, tangling together in the soft mane. They were both jolted by the touch, neither in any hurry to move their hand.
Ryan ducked his head, taking a deep breath before sliding his hand away and back down the horses side. He looked into Jakes eyes. He knew it was time. “Jake, I have to tell you something. Something about me. Jake, Im—”
Jake cut him off. “I know, Ryan.” It was his turn to duck his head before looking back up. “I called the place you used to work, from the references you gave me. The owner told me you were gay and hoped he didnt mess up your chances for a job. He felt bad, you know, but didnt know how to deal with it.”
Blue eyes met brown in a searing gaze, both of them feeling a burning in the pit of their stomachs. Jake was the first to move. He slid under the horses neck, standing up in front of Ryan, so close he could hardly breathe. His hand came up to touch Ryans face. “Ryan, I—”
Ryan leaned in, cutting him off with a hesitant press of lips before pulling back to look at Jake again. Jake stood there for five heartbeats before using the hand on Ryans face to pull him out of the stall and up into a toe-curling kiss, and there was nothing hesitant about it.

YAN was swept away by Jakes kiss, his hand coming up automatically to twist into the curls on the back of Jakes neck, while the other arm came up to wrap around his waist. Jakes arm wrapped around Ryans shoulders and pulled him closer. They were standing there, pressed together from lips to knees, trying to push closer. Jake was stunned by how good and right Ryans mouth felt on his. Ryan was awed by the feeling of hardness pressed against his cock, and he couldnt help but push against it, coaxing a moan out of Jakes mouth.
“God, Ryan, thats just so… oh my God. I cant breathe.”
    Ryan started to pull away, worried that he had pushed too far.
Jake slid the hand on Ryans face around to grab his neck and pull him back. “No, dont, dont stop.” And he renewed his attack on Ryans mouth. His mind
