Andrew is taking a few minutes for a cup of coffee when he finds Sebastian. What are the odds of meeting his first love years later at a conference center? The odds of meeting for drinks leading to something more aren’t nearly as high, but when Sebastian’s hotel has double booked him, something more is almost guaranteed. After years apart is there any chance for more than just one night?

His chest is broader than I remember and he is heavier through the shoulders. His belly is still firm and flat, but not ridged with as much muscle as it used to be. One of his legs is hidden, tangled in the sheets, but the other is displayed nicely for my appreciation. He has always had the best looking legs. I used to tease him about having prettier legs than most of the girls at school. I was jealous.

My eyes run over the contours of his leg, firm muscles and smooth skin under a layer of soft hair, strength and beauty combined. Even his knee and ankle look good -- he would never win a knobby-knee competition. His foot is in perfect proportion and his toes are slightly curled as he sleeps, the nails short and neat.

He shifts slightly and I tense, thinking he is waking up, that I must have disturbed him with my earlier movements or perhaps he can feel the weight of my gaze. I relax as he settles back to sleep and I can continue to watch him. There is something about watching him while he is unaware of my scrutiny that makes it that much more satisfying.

I know he wouldn't object to me staring at his naked body while he's awake -- he certainly didn't object last night -- but these stolen moments feed the voyeuristic part of me. Somehow it feels like this time is mine, that he is mine in a way he never has been, and never will be, when he is awake.
