She didn’t tell him what he’d just done to her.
Only once that week did Theo break his rule and send her some questions later than dinnertime. He must have been thinking about her before bed.
Theo| Coke or Pepsi?
Audrey| Coke
Theo| Fancy hotel in the city or Airbnb remote getaway?
Audrey| Ohhhhh I want both!
Audrey| I never get to travel
Theo| Pick.
Audrey| Airbnb, you ass
Theo| Showers or baths?
Audrey| Baths
Three dots, but they were quick.
Theo| Wait, really?
Audrey| Yeah
Audrey| We didn’t have bathtubs in a lot of my foster homes, and we don’t have one in my apartment now
Audrey| Soaking in a tub is the height of luxury
Theo| Good to know.
Theo| Back massage or foot rub?
Audrey| Yes
Audrey| And don’t you dare ask again, I want all the massages, so fuck off
Theo| Alright, fine.
Theo| I’ll allow it.
Only one more question came through that night.
Theo| Cozy night in or date night out?
Audrey| Cozy night in, every time
The hesitancy did reappear for a bit with that one.
Theo|…thank god.
Every once in a while, she got him to answer a question of her own.
Theo| I don’t understand vanilla being equated with “plain.”
Theo| There’s nothing plain about vanilla.
