I ease my fingers into her panties and find what I’m looking for. It’s hot. It’s wet. And I’m hard.
But I control myself, making a quick swipe before I pull my hand out. Her sharp intake of breath makes my heart beat faster and my brain work overtime to figure out a way to end the evening.
I see Tori approaching. Raya watches me put my fingers in my mouth and suck, but Tori, who’s looking dead at us, seems too tipsy to notice.
“Who wants dessert?” she breezes.
Raya clears her throat. “I’m good. Ace is full. I think we’re gonna—“
“Oh, no, I was thinking one more drink.”
“I think you’ve had enough, T.”
I place my elbow on the table, resting my hand on my chin, my fingers carefully resting below my nose. Raya bursts out laughing when she sees this, but once again, Tori is oblivious.
“Fine. I’ll get my cheesecake to go,” she says sadly. “Leaving me all alone in this big city.”
“You lived here for five years, Auntie.”
“Shit.” Tori ponders that. “I forgot all about that. Your aunt haslived, honey. I don’t know whether I’m coming or going.”
“I prefer cumming myself,” I mumble.
Raya shoots me a look.
“Lemme ask y’all something,” Tori says. “Mainly you, Raya.”
We both lean forward.
“You said he talks you through it. What does that mean?” she slurs. “Talks you through what?”
I press my lips together to hold the smile at bay, but Raya just stares blankly at her aunt. I’m over here fighting for my life, and they’re just looking at each other.
Then Tori looks at me. “What does it mean, Ace?”
“You really don’t know?”
She shrugs.
Raya shakes her head, but I been drinkin’ too, and she ain’tmyauntie, so it’s whatever.
“When we make love—“
“Ace!”
I wave Raya off. “When we make love, and she has an orgasm, I like to give her verbal encouragement.”
Tori’s mouth drops open and her eyes go wide as they turn to Raya. Then she bursts out laughing. “Of course I knew. I’m grown.”
I laugh, too, but Raya rolls her eyes. “Really, Auntie?”
“Really. Ain’t gon’ be no more bald-headed bitches, hear?”
Her eyes move between me and Tori before she shakes her head. “Not y’all ganging up on meagain.”
“I’m sorry, babe. I’m kinda tired. I’ve been sleepier lately.”
“Yeah, I noticed.”
