amount of blood, but his pressure’s doing fine and we’ve got him all stitched up. I’d like to keep him overnight, but he’s insisting he be allowed to go home.” Sam chuckled and shook his head. Yeah, Hal could just imagine his little man standing up to the doctor.
    “So I can take him home?” Hal asked, rubbing his hands on his jeans.
    “Give him a few more minutes on oxygen. He inhaled a little smoke but nothing damaging. He’ll need some clothes though.”
    “Huh?”
    Sam blushed, “It seems he was only wearing his underwear when he entered the church.
    After seeing his arm, Casey did the smart thing and used what he had to hold against the wound.”
    Despite the fact Casey was safe, the idea of even a handful of people seeing his man naked didn’t set well with Hal. “I’ll take him home in a hospital gown. Bill me for it if you need to.”

    Hal left the hospital with a very drowsy Casey wrapped in a hospital gown and blanket.
    Through a little creative buckling, Hal managed to secure Casey so he could stretch out in the seat beside him.
    With Casey’s head on his lap, Hal pulled away from the clinic. “The church?” Casey asked, his voice still a little scratchy.
    “I haven’t seen it, but Ryan assured me the damage wasn’t anything that couldn’t be repaired.” Hal threaded his fingers through Casey’s hair. He was glad nothing more serious had happened. “I’m sorry, babe.”

    Casey turned his head and kissed Hal’s hand. “I was so scared you were in that building.
    All I could think about was getting to you.”
    “When I realised I’d been a shit-head, I decided to surprise you at the park with hot chocolate. You were the only thing on my mind and like a complete ass I left the lights and the coffeepot on.” Hal sighed. “I’ll pay for the damage and do the repairs free.” He wanted to ask Casey for his forgiveness, but Hal knew he didn’t deserve it.
    “Hey,” Casey said, looking up at him. “When I saw the smoke? I didn’t give two thoughts to that building. It was you I was worried about. Still am.” Hal tried to watch the road, but his eyes kept drifting down to Casey’s face. “I love you.”
    “Good, because you’re going to be seeing a lot of me for the next ten days.”
    “I hope for a little more than ten days, babe,” Hal said with a grin.
    “Oh, you’re not getting rid of me. I meant I’ll be working beside you during the day and sleeping beside you at night.” Casey gave him a smug look, and Hal shook his head.
    Before he could protest, Casey continued. “It’s more stress for me to sit at your house and worry about the building getting done in time. At least this way, I’ll be doing something about it. I may not be the most experienced help you’ve ever worked with, but I’m the cutest.”
    “Ya think so?” Hal asked. He tried to keep a straight face but failed miserably. “Charlie Brooks is a damn fine looking man.”
    “Stop right there, Mr. Kuckleman, before you bite off more than you can chew.” Casey pinched Hal’s leg.
    “Good thing I prefer blonds.” Hal pulled into the garage and turned off the ignition.
    “What about your arm?”
    Casey unbuckled his seat belt and sat up. Moving his arm up and down a few times, Casey nodded. “I figure if it feels good enough for me to be horny, it’s good enough to work.”
    Hal looked at the gorgeous man next to him. After everything he’d done, Casey still wanted him. “Really, you’re horny?”
    “Always,” Casey said. He leaned in and ran his tongue over Hal’s lips. “My arm may be sore, but my ass is fine.”
    Hal’s cock sprang to attention at the image. “Shit, let’s get you inside. We only have a couple hours before we have to get to work, and I plan on fucking you several times.” 62

    The feeling of being stretched and filled was pure bliss, Casey thought as he lay under Hal. He could see Hal’s concentrated effort to go slow and Casey shook his head. “Take me,
