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.
