Not a bad idea.
Probably should’ve thought of that myself, but I was so flustered at the idea that Laney was gripping me for dear life that my brain short-circuited.
And fine.Gripping me for dear lifeis probably an exaggeration, but the point is still that she wanted to touch my pee-pee, which she once told me was the most disgusting thing on the planet when she caught me taking a leak behind a tree.
But I’m not holding my dick.
She’s not holding my dick.
So who’s holding my dick?
She lifts her brows. Doesn’t have to say a word, and it doesn’t matter that it’s been years since I voluntarily talked to her before yesterday.
Easy to see what she’s running through her brain.
If you think stalling will make me look under that sheet, you’re dead wrong. I know a setup for a flashing when I see one.
But it’s not a setup.
Someone’s holding my dick.
I snort out a grunt and push back the sheet. And yeah, I’m pushing it back far enough for her to see, no matter where she sits on the bed or in the room, because I’m going to fucking prove to her thatsomeone is in this room with us.
I look down.
And I see—
Oh.
Huh.
Fuck.
That’smyhand.
Unless someone else got tats identical to mine down their forearm and has that same scar under the knuckle on their index finger that I got during that incident involving a marmot, a mountain bike, and a raccoon jawbone.
So that’s my hand holding my dick. Even though it doesn’tfeellike my hand is holding my dick.
“Are you kidding me?” she mutters.
“I don’t know how it got there.”
I move it, except it doesn’t work.
Try again.
Nothing.
My gaze flies to Laney. “It won’t move.”
I get a dead-faced stare back. “Very funny, Theo. News flash: exposing yourself to me won’t make me any less effective as your babysitter today.”
“It won’t move. It—”
Oh. Oh,therewe go. The tingles. I’m getting the tingles in my fingertips. “It—it fell asleep,” I stutter. “I couldn’t—I didn’t—look.”
I pry my hand off my dick with my other hand, lift the dead arm, and drop it on my stomach. “It fell asleep. I couldn’t feel it. That’s why I thought—”
