Not that I'm only thinking about one of them in particular.
Not that I'm remembering how he looks without the v-neck, sneakers, and skinny jeans.
My purse hums with Justin Timberlake singingSexyBack.
Incoming call from Tom Steele, Irresistible.
I answer the phone. "Hello."
"Hey, kid. You miss me yet?" His voice is light.
I tease back. "It's all I think about. I ran out of ink doodling your name in my notebook. You think I should get my 'Tom Steele' tattoo as a tramp stamp or at the top of my bikini line."
"Depends how much you like doggy style."
My cheeks flush. I try to think about something besides Tom throwing me on the bed and fucking me from behind.
I fail miserably.
"Bet I can guess where your mind went." He chuckles. "We're boarding in fifteen. This is your last chance to open the present without Pete overhearing everything."
"What if I want him overhearing?"
"Don't tell me Hazel convinced you that bassists are where it's at. She's already torn my heart in half."
"I wouldn't step on her turf. Sisters before misters."
Tom's laugh flows through the speakers, filling the room with warmth. It's like he's here. Almost. If he was here, I'm not sure I'd be able to resist touching him.
"It's up to you," he says. "I understand delayed gratification a little too well at the moment."
"Can I ask you something?"
"Don't embarrass easily."
My cheeks flush. Any normal person would find this question horribly inappropriate, but Tom is not at all normal. "Do you have wet dreams?"
"Tsk. Tsk." His voice drips with mock offense. "I ever ask you if you have sex dreams?"
"Something tells me you will." I find the wrapped gift bag in my suitcase, take a seat on the bed, and place it in my lap. "Do you?"
"Yeah."
"About anyone in particular?"
His voice softens. "I'm not sure I should answer that."
I bite my lip. This might lead to him sayingsorry, that was a mistakebut it's a risk I have to take. "Why did you get me off last night?"
He's quiet for a minute. "I wanted to make you feel good."
"Tom. That's barely an answer."
"I'll explain after you open the present."
This better be good. "I'll put you on speaker." I set my phone on the bed and reach into the gift bag slowly.
It's a vibrator.
