before he let his ‘angel’ mind talk him out of it. He didn’t have to play the good guy anymore. He’d achieved everything he set out to do. He had graduated. He had a job lined up. He was not going to follow the footsteps of every Jameson man before him.
    “Did you know I was gay, Jag?”
    Jagger choked on his shot of whiskey, the foul tasting shit burning his throat and nose as he spewed most of it back up. “Hell, Riley, you can’t just toss something like that out there when I’ve got liquor in my mouth! Dude! That is so wrong.”
    Riley was gay? How did he not know that Riley was gay? Ehhh …because he never partied with anybody. He had spent his time studying shit that he already knew instead of enjoying himself or making friends. Four fucking years…wasted. When had money turned into his priority? When he’d never had any money, that’s when!
    “Okay. Since you’ve spit out most of what went into your mouth, I’m assuming you’re ready to listen and talk now? I’m gay. If you had ever went anywhere with any of us, this wouldn’t be so shocking to you, but, yeah, I’m gay. I’m not ashamed of it and I don’t hide from what I am.”
    Jagger felt his hackles rise. “What the fuck are you implying, Riley? You think I’m gay? And ashamed? And hiding?”
    Was he ?
    Riley poured himself another shot. “It isn’t my place to answer whether you are gay or not, Jag. That honor belongs solely to you.” He tossed the shot back. “If anything, I worry about you hiding. Hell, Jag, you’ve spent the last four years hiding. You’re always hiding. Why?”
    “I don’t hide,” he sputtered. “What the hell? I never missed a practice or class. Hell, I wasn’t even late for a practice or class,” he countered. Sure, he was arguing but even he knew how desperately stupid his arguments sounded. He knew Riley wasn’t talking about his attendance in any damned thing except party functions…and he’d hid from ever one of those, just like Riley accused. For the first three years, he’d been in his dorm with his beloved razor …
    Cocking an eyebrow, Riley answered, “You never hid your mind, Jag. That was always out front and center for everybody to enjoy.” Reaching over, he jabbed him in the chest with a finger. “You hid your heart, angel. You never once let it come out to play…no fun play…no seriously fun play. If you hide it away from everybody, you’re going to end up an empty shell. Fuck, Jag, you’ve been nothing but a high-achieving shell for the past four years…right up until I said the name Colton Montgomery to you.” His head tossed back as he laughed. “You should have seen that tight-assed shell crumble at the mention of his name.” Riley leveled his gaze at Jagger and a smile spread across his handsome face.
    Shit, Riley was fucking hot. How had he not noticed that before now? More importantly, why did Riley not make his blood hot and his skin itchy like Colton did?
    “Shut the fuck up. You’re drunk, aren’t you?” Jagger asked, hoping his captain was shit-faced drunk and wouldn’t remember a word of this conversation. He was hitting way too close to home.
    “Nope,” he answered, making a popping sound with the word. “I wish you could have seen it, Jag. Life sprung right into your eyes in an instant. It was beautiful.” He turned in his direction and winked. “You were alive for the first time since we had met.” He stood up, gathered his shit, and started for the door. Once there, he turned back and said, “Colton is a good guy. Gay college athletes kind of have to stick together, vacation in the same spots, and shit like that. We’ve never partied together, but I’ve heard all good things about him. He’s not gonna hurt you. Hell, he’d better not hurt you! Just do me a favor and stop hiding for those twenty- four hours? If you want to continue hiding when it’s over,” he shrugged, “then that’s your decision. On this date , why not let yourself have
