Alex and Brayden said they wouldn't have sex, until Brayden talked to Jessica the coming weekend. But it wasn't the weekend yet and somehow Alex was currently lying on a blanket in a wooded area; his arms and legs wrapped around Brayden. As Alex moaned into Brayden's passionate kiss and they grinded their hips together, Alex wondered how him and Brayden got to this point.
Alex had just finished his last class and was walking to the bus stop. He would have usually met Professor Brooks in his office but he had a faculty meeting therefore that wasn't an option. Alex was close to the exit when he got a call from Brayden.
"Big dick," he answered.
"Tight ass," Brayden responded.
"Not for much longer if what happened the other night continues." Alex started to get an erection from thinking about it. He hoped no one noticed.
"Now I'm getting hard," Brayden said.
"That makes both of us."
"Have you finished class yet?"
"Yeah actually. I'm heading to the bus stop now."
"Do you want to go for a drive?" Alex heard some shuffling in the background as Brayden spoke.
"To where?"
"Just to a spot I know. I was going to pick up some takeout and thought we could hangout for a bit." This time Alex heard when Brayden unlocked his Chevy truck and got in.
"Like a date?" Alex instantly regretted saying it. He heard Brayden catch his breath and there was silence as Alex internally kicked himself. "Or we don't have to label it and it'll be just two friends hanging out." Alex kicked himself again.
"Yeah..." Brayden said. Alex imagined that Brayden was running his hand through his hair at the moment and he was. "Will you be at Agate Station?" he continued.
"I just got there actually."
"Okay. I'll see you in about twenty minutes." Alex responded with an 'ok' and Brayden ended the call. Alex sat at the bus stop with a heavy sigh. He too found himself running his hand through his hair. This made him realise that he was in need of a haircut.

Alex and Brayden were driving heading east on the OR-126. As they drove, they talked about how each others' day went and Alex tried to get Brayden to tell him where they were going, but he wouldn't say. Alex looked out the window as they passed the many trees and housing areas.
"Is there anyone else?" Brayden asked.
"Anyone else?" Alex looked at Brayden confused.
"Anyone one else... that you're uh... um... sexually active with?"
Alex smiled at Brayden's awkwardness. "Yes," he answered.
"Logan?"
"Why would you guess him?"
Brayden shrugged. "The way he was with you when you moved back to my place... I just thought..."
Alex chuckled. "He probably just did that to get under your skin. To be honest, we've fooled around a few times but it's never been 'like that' between us. We're best friends; nothing more."
"I would say he's a really great friend; since he came armed with a pocket knife when you first moved out." Brayden shook his head at the memory. "Would he have actually used that knife on me?"
"Yeah, if he thought he needed to."
"I'll keep that in mind."
"Actually, he's the one that convinced me to move back in with you."
"I'll remember to thank him the next time I see him."
"So if it isn't Logan, is it someone else from school?" Brayden continued. "If you don't mind me asking."
Alex decided to be honest. "Yes. I'm sleeping with one of my professors." Alex lurched forward from the sudden stopping of the truck. He gave Brayden a confused look.
"Sorry," Brayden said. "I just wasn't expecting that." He continued driving again. "So your professor? Is it something serious?"
Alex caught on to how Brayden sounded. He seemed a bit jealous. "No, it's not serious. After the intrigue of the student-teacher thing wears off, we'll probably stop." Alex decided not to mention the married part.
"Hmm."
Alex smiled. "Are you jealous? That sounded like jealousy?"
"Pfftt. I'm not jealous. Why would I be jealous?"
Alex laughed. "You are jealous!"
"No I'm not."
"Yes you are."
"No I'm not."
"Yes you are."
"No I'm... just a little bit." Brayden mumbled the ending.
"Awwww."
"Oh, whatever." Alex chuckled. "So you're into older guys?" Brayden asked.
