“Fine,alsoSesi.”
“Sesi hasn’t been begging for my attention.”Callie suddenly felt warm.Theremighthave been some innuendo in her conversation with Sesi, but Callie could also have been letting her longsuffering libido run away with her.She couldn’t deny thatshewanted Sesi’s attention, though.“She’s like a spider.Just sitting there, waiting to trick you into doing what she wants.”
Sparx cocked an eyebrow, thinking, and then nodded.“That seems about right.Once you get to know them all, you’ll see that’s about as close as Sesi comes to begging.”
“You weren’t even conscious!”
“No, but Tornit was watching through the Hexaline.”
“You and Tornit are that close now?Having a little gossip sesh about his boss?”Callie mocked, but there was an edge to her voice.
“Oh stop.”Sparx waved her off.“Anyway, it’s obvious the feelings are reciprocated.”
“Fuck off, Sparx.”Sparx laughed and Callie went back to scrolling.A few minutes passed.Sparx attempted to cross his legs, but he just wasn’t as flexible in this new body.It would take some practice again.
“So, how much of your wishlist did you tick off last night?”he threw out, knowing perfectly well how it would land.Callie nearly choked.
“Jesus, Sparx!”she coughed.“Is nothing sacred?”
“Between us?”he laughed again.“No.Remember that time with the three guys and I told youeverydetail?”
“Yes,” Callie groaned.“Don’t ever do that again.I was cringing the entire time and you just kept going because you like pushing my buttons!”
“And you,” Sparx tapped his index finger on Callie’s shoulder, “like having your buttons pushed.Which is why we’re friends.”Callie frowned, but Sparx wasn’t wrong.She did enjoy the titillation of his occasional oversharing, even though she would be loath to admit it.Calliedidwant to let go, but something always bound her to propriety, unless she got a push.Then, she reasoned, she could at least partially fault someone else.Sparx was always more than happy to take the blame.
“So, spill,” Sparx goaded.“I want to know what weird shit she’s into.”
“Wait, what?”Callie was momentarily stunned.“One, we don’t kink shame and two, I thought you knew everything about her!”
“Noteverything.”Sparx whined.“And please, enough with thedon’t kink shame.With the size of that stick up your arse, you’d think you’d enjoy…”
“I am begging you, do not finish that sentence.”Callie grabbed a pillow and hid her face.
“Youdo!” he squealed gleefully.“Okay, so now I need to know how big…”
“Absofuckinglutely not!”Callie hit him with the pillow.Repeatedly.Sparx giggled and fell backward against the wall.“Too far!”Callie scolded.
“Alright, alright, you win.”He lifted his hands in surrender.
“I have no idea what she’sreallyinto,” Callie added once he had stopped laughing.“Just some light bondage so far.I think she didn’t want to scare me off.She can’t be intoeverything.Or at least notgoodat all of it.”
“That’s true,” Sparx mused.“Is there anything you werehopingfor?”Callie glared.Sparx raised his hand defensively again.“Professional curiosity is all.”
“And what profession is that?”Callie smirked.She hugged her knees.“I’m fine doing other things, but you already know what I’m hoping for.”
Sparx nodded.
“It’s just hard finding someone who’s bothgoodat it and I want to do it with.”
A crooked smile slowly spread across Sparx’s face.
“What?What aren’t you telling me?”Callie narrowed her eyes.
“Nothing, I swear!”Callie lifted an eyebrow.“Fine, I promised I wouldn’t say anything,” Sparx admitted.“But it’s not a bad thing.”Sparx grew serious.“You know I’d never do anything to hurt you, right?”
“Like that last date you set me up on” Callie twisted her lips.
Sparx cringed.“I am well and truly sorry for that.But you know that I was really trying to make you happy.”He paused for a moment, considering if it was appropriate to ask.He went for it anyway, in true Sparx fashion.“Did you ever, you know, with the…?”
