Chapter 1
As Rick entered The Falcon’s Nest, he heard The Cure’s Friday, I’m in Love
and smiled. Not his favorite song, but damn, he was glad it was Friday. It took only a few seconds of scanning the crowded bar to find his friends sitting in a corner booth near the back. His smile stayed in place until his gaze landed on Josh.
Crap. There was something vaguely unsettling about Josh, but Rick could never put his finger on it. Yet, it nagged at him and tended to irritate him. He sighed deeply, knowing if he wanted to hang out with his two best friends, Mark and Andrew, he had to put up with Josh. God, he missed the days when it was just the three of them. They’d met back in college, and over the years, it had become a tradition to get together on Fridays, usually at this bar.
The place wasn’t fancy. Walls with posters advertising local LGBTQ events, pictures of stars, and some large lighted marquee-style letters spelling out words like dance,
drink,
and party
enclosed a pretty basic club. And old wooden bar lined one side, with booths along two walls, the dance floor at the far side, and round tables spaced throughout the area. But The Falcon’s Nest had amazing appetizers, great music, and lots of men. And it was cheap. So basically a win all around. Friday nights were typically pretty busy, and at least one of their gang had always tried to arrive early and grab a booth.
Rick deftly wound his way through the crowd as he made his way to the booth, noting that a lot of the bar’s regulars were already trolling for fresh meat. He slid into the booth as Andrew moved over to make room.
Hey, Rick. I just ordered you a beer.
He flashed his friend a genuine smile. Thanks. I need one. Work was a nightmare.
He glanced across the table at the tall brunette seated directly across from him and tried to keep the smile pasted on. Josh,
he said with a nod, keeping his voice even.
Hey.
Josh was a man of few words and barely acknowledged him most of the time, but tonight Rick could have sworn he saw a hint of a smile tug at his lips and a twinkle in those emerald green eyes.
Interesting.
He let his gaze skip to Mark, the quiet man with the short bright red hair, pale skin, and a few freckles sprinkled across his nose. Mark smiled at Rick and rolled his eyes. He wasn’t too crazy about Josh either, although for an entirely different reason than Rick’s. One word—jealousy—over Andrew. Anyone with eyes could see that Mark was head over heels for Andrew. Well, anyone but Andrew could see it.
They’d all been friends for so long, Rick couldn’t pinpoint exactly when Mark had started looking at Andrew differently, but he’d noticed a change in Mark’s demeanor around Andrew last year. Personally, Rick thought if they did get together, the guys would be good for each other. Not that Mark had ever admitted his crush to anyone.
Andrew was a good guy, but clueless. He was a nurse at the local ER, and one night he’d been working a late shift when several firemen had been brought in by ambulance. There
