“Women do wear pants.”
“Someone isn’t.” He cupped her ass and pinched it.
“What’s stage two?”
“Yawning and stretching. You know, like you do when you wake up in the morning, but you’re not quite bright-eyed and bushy-tailed yet. That’s stage two.”
“So stage two is when your cock is awake but it hasn’t had its coffee yet?”
“Right.”
“So stage three is postcoffee?”
Ian nodded. “Three cups. Wide awake.”
“Your cock is wide awake right now?”
“It is ready to take on the world.”
“Is there a stage four?”
“Oh, yeah. Stage four is serious business. It’s caffeine and adrenaline. It’s so hopped up it can’t sit still. Stage four is usually the last couple of minutes before coming. You know that moment during a shuttle launch when all engines are firing and it’s like hovering a couple feet off the platform? That’s stage four.”
“Is there a stage five?”
“Coming is stage five. There is no stage six. You go immediately from stage five to stage one. Like...in seconds.”
“I like stage three,” Flash said, running her hand up and down him again in one long stroke. “How long can you stay here?”
“A long time with the proper amount of stimulation. But if it’s more than four hours, I have to call my doctor. That’s what the commercials say, anyway.”
“Am I giving you the proper amount of stimulation?”
“The perfect amount. Absolutely perfect.” He put his arms on the side of the hot tub and laid his head back. Flash half sat, half floated on his lap while she played with him, teased him, tenderly caressed him.
“You feel really good,” she said.
“You’re telling me.”
“I mean, you feel good to me,” she said, holding him closer, relishing his nearness. “I wanted you for a long time. It’s nice to finally be able to have you. I had a crush on you from the day you started.”
“You did?”
“I did. Big-time.”
He shook his head. “I’m stunned. From the first day?” he asked.
“The very first day. You gave your speech to the company and took the time to talk to every one of us. And you were so handsome. Are handsome. Were handsome. You were then and still are very handsome. And sexy.”
“I feel so stupid now,” he said. “I’m trying to figure out a time in the past year and a half when I knew you had feelings for me. I can’t. You played it way too cool.”
“I did suck your cock and let you fuck me and come on me. That wasn’t a hint?”
“I’m trying to remember a time other than that night.”
“The week before when we were alone at work together? I was practically throwing myself at you,” she said. “You didn’t get the hint.”
“I was close to getting the hint before your stupid ex-boyfriend walked in.”
