say." Jeremy slapped Cole on the shoulder. "I should still be in town then, so I'll see you on Saturday?"
    Cole nodded. " So I'll see you on Saturday . Let me know if you want to meet at the comic book store or if you're just going to come here. We can rent some movies or something."
    "Sure," Jeremy said, then held his hand out to Anderson. "It was nice meeting you."
    Anderson stood up and shook his hand. "You too."
    Jeremy looked at him closely for a moment, then jerked a nod. "See you guys later."
    Cole walked Jeremy to the door and let him out. They paused to whisper to each other, then Cole closed the door and came back to sit down on the couch.
    "He was surprisingly nice," Anderson said. Off Cole's look, he shrugged, "He's getting to be a pretty big Hollywood actor. I wouldn't have expected him to be so cool."
    " I wouldn't have expected him to be so cool . He's always been like that," Cole said. "I don't think he's ever going to turn into one of those douche bag actors that treat people badly. He's very down to Earth."
    "I just feel kind of dumb that I didn't realize he was your cousin," Anderson said, standing up. He walked over to the couch and sat down next to Cole, where he reached out and pulled the other man close against him.
    " I just feel kind of dumb that I didn't realize he was your cousin ," Cole laughed, shaking his head. He turned in Anderson's arms, snuggling close against him. "What are you trying to do?" His voice lowered, "Are you maybe trying to seduce me?"
    Anderson's lips quirked. "Maybe just a little. Does it bother you?"
    Cole shook his head.
    Anderson's skin felt hot and prickly and he couldn't resist snuggling in closer against the other man. There was just something so nice about human contact. It was something he'd been missing without even knowing it. He'd had a few flings, but it had been awhile since he'd last tried for a real relationship.
    Anderson pressed a kiss against Cole's forehead, then against his cheek, then kind of bent around Cole's body to kiss his lips.
    When Anderson brushed his tongue against his lips--silently questioning--Cole opened his mouth and let the kiss be deepened. Anderson could feel his body starting to catch fire and he liked the way Cole's fingers gripped the front of his shirt tightly, pulling him closer in wordless demand.
    "Hold on," Anderson panted, pulling away.
    Cole made a piteous sound in the back of his throat. He'd never realized before just how much he liked kisses.
    Anderson laughed, a low sound that went right to Cole's groin. "We're not stopping. I just want to get a little more comfortable."
    He got up on his knees and straddled Cole's lap. It probably looked ridiculous, considering Anderson was the taller man, but all Cole knew was that he was getting some contact against his erection. And when Anderson started kissing him again, his fingers combing through Cole's hair, he didn't have any objections.
    They made out for what felt like hours. Just kissing and grinding against each other without removing any clothes or either one coming. It should have been frustrating, but instead Cole thought it was incredibly hot.
    After a while Anderson pulled away and sat on the other end of the couch from Cole. "I don't want to do this yet," he said. He drew in deep breaths and fought for control, pressing the palm of his hand against the base of his cock. He was just glad he hadn't taken his jeans off or it already would have been over because there was no way he would have been able to let Cole go.
    Cole groaned. " I don't want to do this yet . What are you talking about? I'm totally ready to do this."
    "I'm not stupid. I can tell that you don't have very much experience," Anderson said frankly.
    Embarrassed, Cole bowed his head. His cheeks were burning and he felt all itchy in his skin. It was a real trial not to run away.
    "It's all right." Anderson put his fingers under Cole's chin, tipping his head back up to meet his eyes. "I talked to my dad
