“Cleaning up.”
“Oh.Thanks.”But when she reached for the cloth, he held it out of reach.
“Uh-uh.My job.”
Discomfort made her squirm.“Oh, that’s okay.I’ll just take a shower.”
“You’re half asleep,” he pointed out and swiped the cloth gently over her belly.
She couldn’t deny it felt good, soothing and refreshing.But when he dipped the cloth between her thighs, she stiffened.
He dropped a kiss on her belly button.“Just want to get the excess lube, sweetheart, so you can sleep easy.”
After a moment of hesitation, she spread her legs, and he swiped the cloth over her labia.She couldn’t deny it would be nice not to wake up sticky with dried lube, and since he’d used a lot of it, letting him clean it up seemed only right.
She’d nearly relaxed again when he shifted to grip the plug between her cheeks.“Whoa!”She sat up, grabbing his wrist.“What are you doing?”
“Taking the plug out.”
“Why?”
His brown eyes were serious.“Because if it gets too dry, it’s going to feel like sandpaper coming out.”
Okay, she didn’t want that.“I’ll do it.I have to clean it, anyway.”
“I’ll do that, too.”
“But—”
“This isn’t my first butt plug, Chloe,” he told her, amused.
She scowled.“Well, it’s my first.And what if…”
“What if, what?”he asked when she trailed off.
She wanted to bite her tongue off, but he was looking at her, waiting for an answer.“What if it’s, you know…”
“Less than pristine?”he ventured.
Her face was just going to burst into flames.“Yes.”
“Wouldn’t be the first time,” he said with a shrug.“Deep breath now, sweetheart.”
She obeyed automatically, hissing on the exhale when he pulled it out.“All done.”He kissed her again, distracting her while he used the cloth—cooler now—to gently wipe across her now empty asshole, then slipped off the bed.“Be right back.”
She fretted until he came back and lay down beside her.“Well?”
He propped himself up on his elbow.“Well, what?”
She wrinkled her nose at him.“You know very well, well what.”
He laughed.“Just lube, sweetheart.”
“Oh.”Relieved, she sighed.“Good.”
He grinned.“What would you have done if it was covered in shi—”
She jabbed a finger in his face.“Don’t say it.”
