“You said something earlier,” I murmur against her skin. “In the kitchen, before we ended up here.”
“I said a lot of things, most of them were insults.”
“Not those, the thing about the toys.” I pull back and look at her. “You said you’ve been using every toy, imagining it was me.”
Her cheeks flush, in the low light of the bedroom, with my shirt hanging off her shoulder, she looks caught. “The painkillers made me say that.”
“You hadn’t taken the painkillers yet,” I remind her.
“Then it was the head injury,” she states.
“Lettie.”
“Fine.” She covers her face in embarrassment. “The toys you sent me, when I use them, I think of you, because you gave them to me.” She cringes over her confession.
“Is that so?” Now I am intrigued. When I bought the toys for her, I kind of hoped that would be the case.
“Can we not make a thing of this?” she pleads.
“We’re absolutely making a thing of this.” I grin. “Where are they?”
“Where’s what?”
“The vibrators.”
Her eyes snap to mine. “Why?”
“Because I want to see them.” I slide my hand up her thigh, pushing my shirt higher on her leg. “And then I want to use them on you.”
Her breath hitches. “You want to use my vibrator on me?”
“I want to do everything you’ve been imagining.Except better.Because I’m here now and I’m not a battery-operated substitute.”
“That’s very cocky of you,” she says, pointing her finger into my chest.
“Accurate, not cocky.” I kiss her shoulder. “Where is it?”
She hesitates for a second, then reaches over to her nightstand drawer and pulls out a small rose-gold vibrator. She holds it up between us like evidence at a trial.
“That’s cute,” I say, taking it from her.
“Don’t mock my vibrator.”
“I’m not mocking. I’m genuinely impressed. Where are the others?” I ask.
“In the drawer …” She bites her lip.
“Fine, we will play with them later,” I warn her. “This is quality.” I turn it on, and it buzzes in my hand. I test the settings, cycling through the speeds. “How many settings does this thing have?”
“Seven.”
“What’s your favorite?”
“Four.”
“What does four do?” I ask.
“It pulses.”
