Hell, no.
"Thought we agreed no more self-slapping."
"I'm sorry."
I'm about to tell him he doesn't need to apologize when he adds, "Maybe you can take care of that for me next time?"
God, yes.
Adrenaline surges through me, and my fingers clamp down around the giant dildo until my knuckles turn white. Man, it's thick. I once did costuming for a porn shoot—yes, there aresomeclothes in porn—and this thing would give any of those dudes a run for their money.
I turn my attention back to Darby. "If that's what you want," I reply. "But I'd like to take you out on a few dates first."
"You would?"
"Yeah. I don't do hookups or one-night stands."
"Me either. I just… You want to take me out?"
"I promise not to sing."
He laughs. "Unless I ask you to?"
"Maybe."
I glance back down at the dildo and think about what Sky said. It's completely ludicrous, and I totally understand Darby's reluctance to use it on himself in public.
But we're not in public now.
The store is closed.
He's locked in a changing room.
It's just him and me.
Mitch is still a good thirty minutes away, and knowing him as well as I do, he'll call the second he's on his way.
Sky obviously knows Darby a million times better than I do, but I suspect I know what he was trying to get him to do. Take a chance and do something wild and completely out of character in the hopes that by doing it, Darby might see himself in a new light.
I'm determined not to let Sky's efforts go to waste.
"Will you do something for me?" I ask.
"Of course."
I place the dildo by the slit near the door handle we normally use to hand clothes back and forth. "Will you fuck yourself with this thing?"

Darby
"I don't need to see it or watch you," Kip adds, his voice low and sultry…perhaps a tad lower and sultrier than normal. "But I would love to hear you pleasure yourself."
Thiscannotbe happening.
I'm locked in a fitting room with a forty-three-year-old former model with the deepest voice I've ever heard urging me to fuck myself with a dildo? This is one Christmas Eve I won't ever forget.
"I don't know, Kip…"
