    Tired from the game, James suggested going inside for a break. They headed towards the pool table in the room. James threw his shirt on the table, cooling off from the exertion.

    Seeing James, Andrew also took off his shirt and laid it next to James'. For a moment, Andrew paused and admired James' muscles, his eyes wide with surprise.
