Clinical Follow-Up: Dependent Coverage Year - by Cole Harlan

The paper stuck to the backs of his thighs. Ethan’s heels rested in the stirrups while gloved fingers pressed upward inside him and a dry fist stroked his cock in long, unhurried pulls. Pre-come already slicked the shaft and dripped onto his stomach. Victor stood at the head of the table, close enough that Ethan could hear the shift of his weight, and did not look away. Coverage still listed Ethan as dependent. The spare room was the only address on his mail. Refusal cost the remaining months of both. Victor held the forms, the appointments, the key to the plan that kept the clinical frame intact. Each exam supplied proximity neither of them named. At the sink Victor’s fist used the same rhythm the doctor had used on the table. In the empty lot his mouth closed over Ethan and stayed until the pulses eased. In the dark of the spare room his palm tracked the heartbeat under Ethan’s chest while he moved inside him. Ethan stayed still when the distance closed.
