It’s night. Car headlights flash over us like strobe lights. The air is pure and clean, and every breath I take feels like confession, a release of some empty feeling. Tyson is talking about something, I’m not sure what. I’m just watching his animated face dance with his words. His hazel eyes, so dark under the streetlights, light up as they remember something funny that happened earlier. His dirty blond hair flops forward over his face, and I want to reach up and push it back for him. He moves his hand up over his cheek to scratch his nose and all I can think of is how I wish I could be that hand.
“Adam?” His voice comes back slowly, drifting in like the shore at summer. “Adam?” He calls my name again. He’s giving me a weird look. I can tell I’ve been staring at him, and he can too. Somehow, I don’t care anymore.
My hand dances along his arm, up to his shoulder, to his neck, landing on his cheek. My other fingers find his, and snake around them. He looks confused, as if he doesn’t know quite what to do. So I lean in, letting my tangled-up fears go to absolution. I press my lips against his, moving my hand round to the back of his head.
And at last, I have him.

I like
It's easily one of your more thought out pieces - it's more magical and lyrical than the pieces you get more intense with.
I love, by the way.

"I’m just watching his animated face dance with his words."
--I liked this line. Sometimes watching someone speak is the most captivating thing. I love to watch speech happen.
"I press my lips against his, moving my hand round to the back of his head."
--I can see this being played out in my mind.
It seems you are questioning if you should continue with this kind of story write (gay romance) but you can write anything and you know that.

Interesting story. Short, romantic, and nicely described. I like how the narrator lose themselves in the kind of trance that the Tyson guy puts them in. I thought the narrator was a girl until I read the note, heh. I was confused as to why he was calling him "Adam". Blonde moment? Anyway, good story.

Thanks for your comment. Would you be interested in more?

Bring him over to the Men on Men Group.
