“Yep. Bye, Harvs.” I hung up and put down my phone, then buried my face in my hands.

Escaping?

Yes.

That was exactly what I needed to do.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX – CHLOE

Farmers-in-Crime

“Is that… Stardew Valley?” I peered across at Theo’s laptop screen as a familiar launch page caught my eye. “Did you actually buy it?”

“Mm. Honestly, it’s like my computer knew I’d watched you play and kept suggesting me videos on it.”

I side-eyed him. “Videos?”

“On YouTube. Instead of listening to music like I usually do, I’ve been watching people play this bloody game, and now I have to play, too.”

I shook my head in disbelief. “I can’t believe I’m spending my Saturday night sitting next to my boss playing Stardew.”

“There are other things we could do on this Saturday night,” he murmured, leaning in.

I reached over and pushed his face away from mine. “Everything is better in moderation.”

“Most things are,” he agreed. “But sex is not one of those things.”

Well.

Yeah.

“Tell me,” I said, turning to face him. “Would you work out if your muscles were sore after two back-to-back sessions?”

Theo blinked his grey-blue eyes at me. “No. I’d probably rest them for a day or so.”

“Then please extend that same courtesy to my vagina.”

“Nobody has ever asked me to extend a courtesy to their vagina before.”

“Then take this chance to do something for the first time,” I replied. “Unlike your penis, my vagina is a muscle, and muscles get sore.”

He leant in and rested his cheek against the side of my head. “Chlo. Did I hurt you?”

I paused. “Is that what you took from what I said?”

“You just said you’re sore. How else should I take it?”

Ugh. What a softie.

“Are you really worried you hurt me?” I reached up and patted his cheek. “You didn’t.”

He covered my hand with his, linking his fingers through mine, and pulled my palm down to kiss it. “Again, you said you’re sore.”

“Well… Muscles get sore when they aren’t used regularly.”

He stilled, then quickly relaxed. “I see.”

“You see? What’s that about?”
