“I used to dream you’d say that to me one day,” he said, unable to stop the smile on his face.

“I’ll say it every day if it makes you look like that,” said Bobby, kissing him gently.

“You know I love you too, don’t you?”

“I was hoping, but it’s always nice to hear.”

“I’ll say it every day to you as well.”

They kissed slowly for a while, and before long, Bobby was sliding inside him. They’d recently had the condom conversation. Gabriel was already on PrEP and rarely went without condoms – and hadn’t since his last check-up – and Bobby had been tested after he found out about Alex and Dillon. They’d wanted to feel closer to each other, and it couldn’t feel more perfect.

Gabriel moaned as Bobby buried himself as deep inside Gabriel as he could get, peppering him with gentle kisses. It was slow and perfect. Even at this speed, Bobby was focused solely on Gabriel’s pleasure. He squeezed his arse muscles, which caused Bobby to moan and thrust harder.

“I know what you’re doing. Let me set the pace, and I’ll bend you over the couch later and fuck you until you can’t walk.”

Gabriel chuckled. He’d happily do whatever Bobby wanted him to. When Gabriel had first met Bobby over two years ago, he’d set him as the benchmark of what a perfect man could be, and nobody had ever met that standard. He hadn’t expected this to happen. Bobby Kavanagh had been a fantasy, and now he was Gabriel’s future, and he would deliver on his promise to make sure this beautiful, kind, and sexy man knew how much he was loved every single day.

EPILOGUE

BOBBY

One year later

“Happy wedding day, husband to be,” said Bobby, kissing Gabriel on the forehead.

He loved waking up with this man in his arms. It was his favourite part of the day, but he also liked it at night when he fucked Gabriel unconscious, or when they got back from work and cuddled on the sofa watching Christmas films. Every part of the day with this man over the last year had been his favourite.

“I’m already your husband.”

“I know, but we’re making it official today.”

Gabriel chuckled. They were still legally married after their drunken Vegas ceremony, and they were now back at the scene of the crime to do it sober this time. Their original wedding date would stand, so today was more like a vow renewal. Both of them still couldn’t recall their original wedding. That memory was gone forever, lost to the alcohol gods. Today, they would make new memories, surrounded by the people who were most important in their lives.

“What time is it?” asked Gabriel.

“It’s only eight o’clock. We’ve got ages until we need to get ready.”

“What do you want to do?”

“What do you think?”

“Yeah, that’s not happening.

Bobby looked Gabriel in the eyes with concern. “Are you okay?”

“We christened this hotel suite a lot yesterday.”

Bobby smiled. “Do you think people knew why we were late for dinner?”

“Of course they did. Although I wish Jason hadn’t made that comment, so my mum knew as well.”

“Your mum knew before he said anything. Do you think she’s never been late for dinner herself?”

“Don’t! How would you feel if I said something about your parents?”

“Well, I hope my dad is still keeping my mum satisfied.”

“Oh my God. What is wrong with you?” said Gabriel, looking horrified.
