I’m thinking. This is a lot toprocess.

What are you thinkingabout?

What I want to donext?

Hmmm. What are the options you’reweighing?

Shae tried to think of something cute and clever, but her brain and her thumbs just wouldn’t cooperate. The truth came tumblingout.

Option 1: Send equally impressive picturesback.

If I can match your expert lightingsituation.

Option 2: Ask you if you want me to comeover,

like rightnow.

I’m fine with eitheroption,

but now I do feel badbecause

I know you have to get up early forwork.

What’s the best option that involvesyou

getting the best night’ssleep?

Shae felt herself grinning like an idiot. How could a guy be this cute and sweet whilesexting?

Well a good orgasmdoes

usually put me tosleep.

But by the time I got overthere…

Right. We’d be blowingyour

full night of sleepplan

tosmithereens.

How do you feel aboutFaceTime?

You can see me. I can seeyou.

Not exactly sex, but the next bestthing.

It seems like a reasonable Option3.

If it will help you sleep, thatis.

Give me a fewminutes.

Shae didn’t wait for him to respond. She tossed her phone on her bed, then jumped up and ran into her bathroom. There was no shame in her bonnet game, but she needed to sleep with Aidan at least once in real life before she exposed him to the world of Black women’s night time protective style routines. She unwrapped her hair as quickly she could, fluffing it along its natural part before she dug up her best fuck-me lipgloss.

She gave herself one last look in the mirror and realized that should do the trick. As soon as she changed out of her t-shirt and sweats. She ran back into her room and dug up this lacy nightgown she’d splurged on after her she’d moved out of her parents’ house in Baldwin Hills and into her own place. She’d worn it for more than five minutes exactly notimes.

Shae slipped it on and it actually fit better than when she’d first tried it. No panties felt like a safe go-to move. She flopped back down on her bed and grabbed her phone, pressing the video chat icon under Aidan’s profile before she could talk herself out of it. Aidan picked up right away. Shae had literally just seen pictures of him completely naked. Seeing his face and the upper part of his bare chest on her phone should not have come as such a shock. Still, just looking at him reclining against his pillows had sent a fresh wave of heat all overher.
