Tommy stares at the candles lighting up the bedroom before he hesitantly says, “It’s pretty.”

Chuckling, Brian wraps his arms around Tommy’s waist. “You could sound more enthusiastic.”

“I’m not good at romance and that kind of shit.”

“So you say,” Brian murmurs. “But even the prettiest roses have thorns. Don’t you know that?”

Tommy’s blood rushes south. He knows that tone of voice all too well.

“What do you mean?”

“You want a demonstration, boy?”

“Yes. Please.”

For once, Tommy figures it out really fucking fast. All it takes are the first drops of hot wax on his skin.
