No scales or humps. No hairy back either, for the record.
Eve
I don’t believe you.
The next message that pinged in was an image.
I’ve never come so close to falling off my chair. “Jesus fuck,” I whispered.
It was a selfie in his bathroom. His back turned, one hand up, holding the phone to take the photo in a mirror’s reflection. It didn’t show his face, but it did show every inch of delicious, sculpted back.
No hair, scales, or bumps in sight.
I swallowed hard.
Eve
Okay, so your back is good. But now I’m thinking you’re hiding something on your chest, since you conveniently left that out of the photo.
I went back to admiring the photo of his back, in particular, the lower half that narrowed into his hips and ass.
His ass looked damn good. And I knew he was a gray sweatpants sorta guy.
When my phone binged again, it was another bathroom selfie.
His body was more perfect than I could have even imagined. Any daydream I might have had about defined pecs and ripped abs was blown away by the real thing. For an insane moment, I considered licking the screen. That was how hot the man was.
Eve
Jesus Christ. Do you live at the gym?
Boston
Only every other week.
He lied. Nobody got a body like that by working out intermittently. His sweatpants hung low on his hips. So low they showed off his V lines and a tiny sliver of dark hair that disappeared beneath the waistband.
Perv that I was, I tried zooming in to check out what he had going on beneath it, but he was hidden behind the bathroom sink.
A flash of disappointment joined the heat coursing through my body. Did I dare carry on the game? Just how far could I push the man before he said stop?
I really wanted to find out. “Ah, fuck it. We’ve come this far, might as well push my luck a little more.”
Eve
Photo stops at your waist? Shame. I’d hate to think it was your dick that is your problem area.
Boston
Did you just ask me for a dick pic? I thought girls hated those?
Eve
We hate the unsolicited ones… Different story if we asked for one.
Boston
Are you asking for one, Eve?
