Chapter 2: Chapter 2
“That’s fucking disgusting. You’re like my brother from another parents, man. I don’t want to imagine your naked ass doing unspeakable things to sweet, innocent Pablo.”
Keenan snorted. “Pablo is anything but. He can swallow my dick and do this thing with his tongue—”
“Yuck! Enough!” Javier exclaimed before he mock-gagged while trailing after Keenan toward the elevator. “You’re the worst!”
Keenan laughed. “That honor will go to Justin and Blake. I’ve seen more than enough of them, if you catch my drift.”
Javier chortled as he followed Keenan into the elevator. “You, too?”
“Hell yeah! I think David, Joshua, Calvin, and Vincent had caught Justin and Blake in a few compromising situations in several places in the office. They weren’t completely naked, but they were definitely getting it on hot and heavy.”
Javier guffawed much louder now. He, Keenan, Justin, David, Joshua, Calvin, and Vincent had started at the pharmaceutical firm at around the same time straight out of college, and they had been best friends ever since. After years of hard work, they had all risen to their present positions. David Lee was the IT Junior Manager, Joshua Wallace was the Social Media Specialist, Justin Wong was the Human Resource Manager, Calvin Maxwell was the Junior Manager for the Research and Development department, and Vincent Yang was the Finance Manager.
“Those two can’t keep their hands off each other.”
Keenan shot a disgusted expression at Javier. “You can say that again. I’ll need extra strong brain-bleach to get the images out of my mind.”
“If you know where to get something like that, buy me a few bottles. I want to erase the images of Justin’s naked ass and Blake’s cock from my mind,” Javier said with a shudder as he and Keenan stepped out from the elevator a short moment later.
Javier and Keenan shared a pained smile immediately afterward.
“I will, buddy.”
Then the two of them beamed at each other as they headed toward The Overrated Llama. The bar was within walking distances from the office, so Javier and his best friends never took their cars there. Instead, they would get there on foot at least three times a week and stay for two, three rounds of drinks before making their way back to the office building where they worked at to get their cars. They never drank too much. In fact, most of the time they would simply nurse one glass of beer for about an hour or two. On the rare occasions they had consumed too much alcohol, they would call for a cab each.
The moment Javier entered the bar, he could feel himself relaxing a little. Maybe getting a drink and catching up with his best friends at the same time would help to alleviate some of the frustrations he had to endure at work. It was the middle of the week, so there weren’t as many customers. The number of patrons at The Overrated Llama would start to increase on Thursday and Friday, and based on past experiences, he knew the bar would be insanely crowded on Saturdays and Sundays. The music was upbeat, but its pounding wasn’t one of those annoying types that would inevitably give him a migraine. He and Keenan spotted their group of friends with their respective boyfriends at one of the tables. He sighed in exasperation andamusement when he caught the sight of Justin and Blake kissing, groping, and rutting against each other.
“Hey, guys,” Javier greeted his friends and their respective boyfriends before turning toward Keenan. “Kee—oh, hell!”
Pablo had approached Keenan all the way from behind the bar, and those two were sucking faces so hard, it was a miracle their lips were still on their faces. Javier shrugged at David and Tobias, both of them smiling at him in sympathy. He liked Tobias because the billionaire treated David well. Granted, he didn’t think he could ever be in a relationship with someone like Tobias. The man was possessive and jealous to the point of being excessive at times, but Javier noticed the joy on David’s face every time he observed the two of them together. As long as his best friend was content, he was more than willing to give Tobias the benefit of the doubt in spite of his initial concern that the billionaire might turn into an overly controlling asshole. So far, David had been ecstatic in his and Tobias’s blossoming relationship, so Javier was able to accept the billionaire with ease.
“I don’t know which pairing is worse,” Tobias said while darting his eyes back and forth between Justin and Blake on the left side of the table, and Keenan and Pablo on the right.
“Justin and Blake,” David muttered loudly with a whole-body shudder.
