âDJ⦠â I said, when he finally released me from his embrace. Looking up at his brown eyes, I had to smile.
âWhat, Baby?â
âYou know we canât.â
âWeâre both consenting adults with fully functioning bodies and no attachments,â DJ said without taking a breath. âNot only can we, but Iâm sure we can do it well. You know athletes are the best in bed.â
âWeâre on my floor.â
âYour bedâs ridiculous,â he whined.
I could see the disappointment in his eyes.
âDonât you have somewhere to be?â
âOh shit!â he said, rolling off me and checking the time on his phone. âWhat am I supposed to do with this?â
DJ smiled and pointed to his crotch.
âSorry, honey, but I told you we canât.â
âYouâre not in a âgood placeâ now,â he whined again, using air quotes. âWhoever he was, Iâm gonna to kill him.â
âThatâs why youâre my bestie,â I said as I kissed his cheek. âDoes it make you feel better that you have me tuned up like a Fender guitar?â
It wasnât true, but it seemed to make him feel better. I was numb to most touches. Oh sure, Iâd get a slight tingle and in the back of my mind Iâd think this was how it was supposed to be, that I should just go for it. But in reality, we were playing out a bad rom-com with our canned expressions and perceived responses.
âNo,â DJ snipped.
I guess lying about being turned on was enough to satisfy him. He stood up and I was beginning to regret my no. DJâs skin-tight workout shirt was defining him in a way that made me wish I needed his dictionary. His biceps flexed as he moved reminding me of what it had been like to have strong arms hold me down but submission took too long to satisfy me. Taking control wasnât any better. Either way, DJâs shirt had to stay on.
âWill you at least think of me with fondness?â DJ asked, bringing me out of my own head.
âDude, youâve been the only one in my spank bank since we met,â I assured him as I pulled my legs up to my chest and curled into a ball.
At least that earned me a smile.
âHow does a sweet face like that harbor a mouth like yours?â
