Relieved, she nodded.“I didn’t think so, but I wanted to be sure.”
“Be sure.He was definitely not mad.”
“Okay.Is he asexual?”
That startled a laugh out of him.“What?Why would you ask that?”
“Well, so far I’ve had sex twice, and you’ve had sex once, and he’s had sex not at all,” she explained and shrugged.“So, I wondered.”
“Okay, first, that’s not how asexuality works,” he told her.“And second, no, Knox is not asexual.He’s very much sexual.Trust me.”
“Then what’s with the not fucking?”
“Well, for one thing,” he mused thoughtfully, “Knox is like, mature and shit.He says he’s too old to think with his dick.”
“Can you be too old to think with your dick?”she wondered.
“I don’t think so,” he said, and she snickered.“But Knox does, so I think that’s part of it.Plus he’s got this thing, I guess you might call it a kink, for delayed gratification.”
“Really?”
“I say it’s a form of self-torture, but he says it’s just anticipation.”He looked at her.“You almost broke him today.”
She blinked.“I did?”
“When you said the plug sure felt bigger, and did that little ass wiggle.”Jesse grinned.“I thought he was going to jizz in his jeans.”
She giggled.“That’s when he got all stern.”
“So he wouldn’t lose it,” Jesse explained.“The closer he is to blowing, the sterner he gets.That goes for both dick and temper, by the way.”
“Ah…good to know.”
He just grinned and tugged her hair.“I should get back to work.”
“Okay.”Laying her head down on the pillow, she smiled.“Thanks for fucking my brains out.”
“It was my very sincere pleasure.”He bent to kiss her.“You going to nap?”
“I think so.I don’t have to be downstairs until four.”
He eyed her bedside clock, one eyebrow raised.“You’re going to sleep for three hours?”
“No, I’m going to sleep for two, then take a shower.”
“Fair enough.”He kissed her again, lingering over it.“I wish I didn’t have to go.”
“Same,” she sighed.
“Stay over tomorrow night.”
She blinked.“What?”
“Stay over,” he repeated.“You don’t have to work on Monday, right?”
“Right,” she said slowly.“But—”
“We’re putting in a full day at the restaurant—well, I am, anyway, and Knox has meetings, so we’ll be up and out early, but you can sleep as long as you like.In our bed.”He smiled.“I like the idea of you sleeping in our bed.”
