description: An Excerpt Ready By R.J. March By the time Kevin and Billy reached Cape Cod, they had broken up. They hadn't really known each other long, and neither was particularly impressed by the strange twist this vacation had taken. "I think it's a good idea," Kevin said. He'd been skeptical all along--it hadn't seemed the best idea, the two of them as a couple, from the start. (They'd seemed rather mismatched, in his opinion, but the sex was fucking awesome.) And so the breakup seemed justifiable until he started calculating the cost of it, what with the vacation and a house for the week, rental car, souvenirs--he'd gotten off cheaper in the past.

What was it about being in a car that made him want to play with himself? He glanced over at Billy's legs, the hem of his silky basketball shorts raised high, sunlit, and he felt a moment of remorse-- Was that why I loved him , he asked himself-- his thighs? It hadn't been love, though--not in the real sense of the word. It wasn't consuming or anything like that. He knew consuming--he'd been there.
