“Yes.” I splutter. “It is, actually.”
“Why?”
“Well, how would you like it if I waved my body around in front of you all the time?”
“You do.”
“I do not.”
“You’re wearing panties and a camisole right now. I see your body wherever I look, so don’t play Mother Theresa here, Eliza. ”
I roll my eyes, I’m still lying with my back to him.
“And besides, we’ve been like this for years. Why is it suddenly bothering you now?” He adds.
“I’m just horny, okay?” I spit before I can put my mouth to brain filter on.
Oh… hell.
“You’re horny?”
I scrunch my eyes shut. Did I just say that out loud? “Good night, Nathan.”
He rolls me onto my back, and his eyes dance with mischief as he leans over me. “You’re horny?”
“No.” I try to backtrack. “What I mean is, I’m a single woman, and you shouldn’t be naked in front of me all the time.”
He gives me a slow, sexy smile. “Why not?”
“Just…” I press my lips together as I try to think of an appropriate thing to say that doesn’t make me sound like a pervert. “I’m just saying.”
He gets up and goes to my underwear drawer. He grabs my vibrator and tosses it to me. “Go for it.”
“What?” I frown.
“Do your best.”
I stare at him.
“Don’t let me get in the way.” He raises an eyebrow. “Fuck yourself. Pretend I’m not here.” He picks his book back up and turns the page he was at. “I won’t watch… much.”
“You’re disgusting.” I throw the vibrator off the bed and roll over in a huff. I pretend what he just said isn’t the hottest thing I’ve ever heard.
“You did say you want to start being more open about our sex life,” he says. “I’m just saying.” I can tell by the tone in his voice that he’s amused. I hear the page turn, and I know he’s gone back to reading.
My mind goes somewhere it shouldn’t. I imagine masturbating in front of him. Would he touch himself while he watches?
Would we come together?
My sex clenches as I imagine how hot that would be.
Fuck, where did that come from?
Stop it.
He grabs my hipbone and pulls me back sharply to sit snugly against him. The heat of his touch begins to travel through my system. Like chocolate near a flame, melting as it gets hotter.
Fuck this. I need sex.
