“Thank you for taking care of me last night,” I say, nipping his shoulder.
He blinks at me, not quite meeting my eyes. “I-uh…the way you kiss me makes my brain go all four-oh-four, not found.”
I laugh at the aw-shucks feel of him this morning. So damned sweet. I can’t help but rib him a little. “Wait…are you saying all I had to do to shut you up was fuck you senseless?”
He chuckles, shrugging to himself. “Maybe this is how the zombie apocalypse begins: world’s first ambulatory brain death.”
I laugh, wondering why I don’t do it more, especially when his eyes shine like I’ve shown him a magic trick.
Swiping my thumb across his bottom lip, I whisper, “Oh, there you are. I was missing you.”
He squints, confused. “You were missing my mouth?”
“Allah help me, but yes.”
“You mean my words and not my dick-sucking skills? That mouth?”
“Is it okay if I missed both?”
“Is it okay if I tell people you’re my boyfriend?”
I roll my eyes, unable to help the chuckle that spills out of me. He’s such a dork. I gather his face in my hands, smiling broadly. “Yeah, that’s a hard pass. You set my car on fire yesterday.”
“It’s not nice to hold a grudge.”
“I’ll stop holding a grudge when my car stops smelling like a burned leather couch in the back of a sex club.”
“So you’ve been to a sex club. Iiiiinteresting.”
“Yes, I’ve been to a sex club. Many.”
“Dirty, gold star, or platinum?” he asks, because of course.
“It’s a secret I’ll take to my grave,” I say with a smile.
“Fair.”
“What’s your percentage?” I ask, charmed by the fact that he still can’t quite meet my eyes. “Boys versus girls?”
“Probably 70-30. Guys are easier to fuck. Last woman I fucked was my boss, the one in Wimberley.”
“Hedy?” I ask, remembering something about that.
He nods. “It was the same night she recruited me.”
“Never let it be said that you’re boring.”
“Okay, Sex Club.”
“That’s not my nickname.”
“It is if I say it is.”
I raise my brow, and he smiles.
“Fine. No nickname.”
I run my thumb across his bottom lip, folding it down slightly. “Also, I haven’t experienced these dick-sucking skills you speak of, so clearly we’ll need to fix that as quickly as possible.”
