I wish you would.
“I like learning you and your body, what makes you tick, tick, boom. I love exploring and playing with you. I’ve never had a partner I connected with like this.” I am shaken to realize it’s true. I am twenty-seven years old, and I’ve never felt anything close.
“Me too. You see everything, every reaction, every need. It’s a little intense, but I like it.” She leans her head back on my shoulder, and I slide my arms around her torso.
“I’m taking notes so I don’t forget.” I kiss her neck and she shivers. “Like that right there.”
“I love a man who is studious.” She grins and squeezes my thigh. “You’re still wearing your glasses.”
“You said they were sexy.”
A soft quiet settles between us as she finishes eating, but my brain will not let it last long.
“You seemed upset when I called and then you came home late. Want to talk about it?” I ask. Penny sighs and puts the crust back on the plate. I take it and set it on the floor.
“Some of the early reviews came back and mentioned that the MiO was difficult to get the hang of. Obviously not the first impression we want gearing up for the third-party resellers launch.”
“Is it hard to use?” I dig my fingers into the space between her shoulder blades and she slouches forward to give me access.
“It does take some experimenting. Because everyone’s anatomy is different, finding the G-spot can be tricky, and then figuring out what makes yours feel good is another layer. But that experimenting is part of the process.”
“That makes sense. Do people know that going in?” I ask.
She sits up straight and flails her arms as she turns to explain. “We included it in the user directions. With diagrams! And suggestions!”
I chuckle at her vehemence. “Well, no wonder they had trouble. Horny, excited people reading directions before playing with a new toy? I can see it now. ‘Honey, get your face out of my pussy and come up here. We have to read first.’” I protect my face as she swings a pillow playfully at my head.
“What else can I do? I’ve gone through so many edits of those damn directions trying to make them as easy to follow as possible…”
I hug the pillow to my chest so she can’t bop me again. “Yeah, but once they have the toy out, it’s too late. I know I wouldn’t have the self-control.”
“I need to reach them before they get the toy… Oh my God! That’s it! Onboarding before the toy even gets there! We could send out a video demo with the order confirmations so they hear the information when they are excited about the toy but haven’t gotten it yet. Dash, you’re brilliant!”
“No, baby, you’re brilliant. That was all you.” I slide my hand up to cup her still-bare breast, and she leans back into my chest, trusting me to support her. “I like these naked business meetings. Have I mentioned how much that fucking sexy brain of yours turns me on?”
“Not today.”
“My bad.” I tweak her nipple lightly, earning a gasp and a moan. “You know what, I think I am a little hungry. You keep plotting your global sexual revolution, and I’m gonna have a little snack.”
Turning her in my arms, I lower my head and show her exactly how hungry she makes me.
The next morning dawns well before I am ready to rise, and I roll, hoping to convince Penny to play hooky, but the spot next to me is already empty and cold. With a groan, I pull on fresh boxer briefs and search for her.
I find her hunched over her computer at the table with a phone to her ear.
“No, we didn’t talk about that. My mouth was a little busy. It seemed like a better use of my time… Stop it. But yes. It’s just so much easier to fuck it out…”
I cough softly to alert her to my presence.
“Nicola, quit laughing. We found the problem. We need to get the customers learning before the device arrives. I was talking with Dash last night… Ha ha very funny. Behave yourself. I’m putting you on speaker because he just walked in.” She mutes the phone and holds it to her chest. “Good morning! I hope I didn’t wake you. I was too jazzed to sleep, so I came out here to work. Nic and I were just getting into it. Want to help?”
I grin and nod, pleased to be included. She sets the phone between us on the table and hits the speaker button.
“Okay, Nic, so I was thinking that we send out an email with a training video to everyone with their confirmation email so that we can explain the setup before the device arrives. Dash made the point that people are too excited for close reading when the toy actually gets there.”
“It’s a good idea, but we don’t have that produced. And where are we going to host the video so that only folks who’ve ordered can see it?”
Problems and solutions chase each other through my head. I snag the most likely and easiest pair and jump into the fray. “I assume you have a website constructed?”
