with this special man. Ryan looked up at him with hopeful eyes, and Jake knew he wanted to be the one to make those hopes come true.

AKE kept Ryan gathered against his chest for a long while, just enjoying the feeling of Ryans warm body against his. He kissed his temple, and Ryan nuzzled into his neck, trying to get as close as he could get. All too soon though, Ryan got a little self-conscious, him being naked in Jakes lap, and the fact was that Jake was still rock hard in his jeans.
    “Oh, Jake, Im sorry. This cant be very comfortable.” He started trying to pull away, but Jake didnt let go of him.
“Its okay, Ryan. Just, give me a second, alright?”
Ryan nodded and held still.
“God, Ryan, you are so beautiful. I mean, is that okay to say to a guy?” Now it was Jakes turn to be self-conscious, but Ryans shy smile took it away.
“Me? I dont know about that, but its fine with me if you wanna say it.”
Jake pulled him in for a gentle kiss before getting his legs underneath him and helping Ryan stand. He helped him gather his clothes before grabbing his shirt, and they both quickly dressed.
“Jake, dont you want…?” Ryans eyes strayed to the enticing bulge in Jakes jeans.
He smiled at Ryans question and nodded. “I do, but not now. I want to show you something first. Will you come with me?” Ryan looked at him thoughtfully for a minute before nodding. Jakes grin got bigger. “Wait here for a second.”
He turned, ran back to the house, and was gone about five minutes, just long enough for Ryans worries to return. When Jake came out of the house with a saddlebag full of stuff, he saw the look on Ryans face. He walked over to him, set the bag down, and pulled him into his arms, happy when Ryan came into them willingly. Jake held him close for a few minutes, kissing his hair, stroking his back, and just helping him relax.
“Are you sorry about this, Ryan?” He was kind of scared of the answer.
Ryans eyes came up to meet Jakes. “No, not at all, its just, I dont want you to be.”
Jake was determined to find out the reason for the sadness in Ryans eyes, but later. Right now, he had other things he needed to do. “I am never, ever going to be sorry about this, Ryan. I mean, like, ever!” He leaned down to kiss Ryan softly before straightening up and heading outside, leaving Ryan alone to gather himself together.
He went to the pasture and whistled, and Aragorn headed for the gate. Once the big horse got there, Jake opened it and let him out before securely fastening it again. He put his hand on the horses neck, and the two of them headed for the barn.
Jake grabbed a bridle and put it on the horse before heading to the tack room to grab what he needed. He came out with a blanket, throwing it over Aragorns back properly before heading back for a saddle. The horse just stood there, reins trailing on the ground, seeming like he had all the patience in the world. Once the saddle was taken care of, Jake grabbed a bed roll, attached it to the saddle, and did the same with the saddlebag before looping the reins over the horses neck. He looked at Ryan, who stood there in confusion.
“I know you want your own horse, and you can ride Beau, whenever you want to, but, I was really hoping, I mean. God, I am so lame.” He reached up to run his fingers through his hair, trying to figure out what to say. Finally, he just went for it. “Ryan, will you ride with me, please?” And he held out his hand.
Ryan smiled shyly and took it. Jake led him over to Aragorn and let him swing up first. Then Ryan scooted forward as far as he could go, letting Jake swing up behind him. He settled in behind Ryan, and Ryan passed him the reins before leaning back against Jakes hard chest. Jake snaked one arm around him, pulling him as close as he could, before signaling the horse to head out. He kissed the back of Ryans neck, loving the smell of Ryan mixed with the smell of horses. This could be his favorite smell in the world in a
