I sighed and gave up another secret. “Okay, fine. Jana used to send me all kinds of self-help sex videos to watch.” When Bailey blinked at me as if she totally didn’t believe me, I turned a little defensive. “I mean, not because I was awful at it. That was just her thing. She liked investigating new tips and ideas.” The last of my explanation came slower and slower the more I worried about upsetting her by talking about my relationship with another woman.

But all she said after ten second of gaping at me was, “You’re really serious, aren’t you?”

Relieved she wasn’t jealous, I grinned. “What? You thought you were the only person who’s ever seen other people have sex?”

Her mouth fell open, and she snorted out an amused sound.

I shrugged, growing more entertained by the second, even though it’d always kind of irked me when Jana had sent me a new video, like she really had been trying to tell me I sucked. “Honestly, the most helpful one I watched was actually some guy just fingering some fruit as he explained the best places to touch.”

Bailey threw back her head and laughed. “Oh my God, I have to see that one.” Grasping my arm, she ran her hand up it as she smiled at me. “Remind me to thank Jana for sending you all those.”

My heart thumped hard and heavy in my chest and emotion overwhelmed me. I wanted to thank Jana for more than just that. She’d always made me feel as if I wasn’t worthy enough, as if no matter what I did for her I needed to try harder. She had never appreciated me for just being me. She’d never made me feel like a Casanova. She’d never made me want to just grab her face and kiss the fuck out of her. Not the way Bailey did.

The lack of what Jana had done for me made everything that Bailey did do feel all that much bigger and more powerful. It was like starving a man before serving him his favorite meal, so he could truly appreciate the different between heaven and hell.

Bailey was my heaven: spunky and bold and even argumentative enough to keep me challenged and on my toes, but sweet and soft and perfect when I needed an emotional pillow to lay my head on.

I honestly wasn’t sure if I had ever loved anything as much as I loved her in that moment.

Her lips parted as she read my feelings. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

I shook my head. “Like what?”

“Like…I don’t know.” She bit her lip. “Like you love me. Like I amaze you.”

“Because I do love you,” I said. “And you do amaze me.”

I cupped her face in my hands as tears glittered in her eyes. “Oh, wow,” she rasped. “This is…it’s just so surreal. Are you sure it’s really happening?”

“If it’s a dream, then it’s my dream too.”

She pressed her lips together before whispering, “Thank you.”

My eyebrows crinkled with confusion. “For what?”

Sniffing, she shook her head as if she didn’t want to talk about it. But then she said, “For showing me what love could be like.” Her fingers rested against my chest, right over my heart. “What sex could be like.” She gave a wonderful, watery laugh. “I mean, I’ve listened to Paige and Tess talk about it with their guys, and I just, I don’t know, I assumed they were exaggerating because they were just in love and wanted to play their boyfriends off as superhuman lovers. When Tess said Jonah had given her two orgasms in one round of sex, and Paige claimed Xander had given her three, I thought they were full of it, but—hey! What’re you doing?”

After her pushing her back down on the blanket and crawling over her, she gaped up at me as if I’d lost my mind.

“What?” I asked, blinking down at her as if confused by her confusion. “You just said the record was three orgasms in one round. I’ve given you three, and our round’s technically not over yet, so, challenge accepted. We’re breaking the damn record.”

“Oh my God,” she groaned in annoyed disbelief, even as her eyes glittered with glee. “You don’t seriously think you can—oh! Oh my God!” This time, the phrase was gasped in pleasure. “Okay, maybe you can,” she finished in a high, strained voice while I licked my way up the inside of her thigh. “Jesus, Beck.” Her fingers burrow in my hair, encouraging me on. “You win. You already win.”

Yeah, well, now I wanted to win bigger. I teased her pussy, making her groan and arch toward my face. We were both still fully naked and stretched out on the bl

anket in the hay, her on her back and me on my stomach as I lay between her legs. Just when I decided to give her clit some direct attention, something scurried across my bare ass.

At first, I thought it was her fingernails, teasing and tickling. But then it struck me, where I was laying, there was no way her arms were long enough to reach down that far.

Jerking my face up, I mumbled, “What the hell?” and glanced over my shoulder in time to see a grey ball of fur with a long pink tail dash cross the loft floor toward another pile of hay.

“Holy shit!” Beyond freaked, I sprang upright, forgetting about my O-challenge and making Bailey spring upright, demanding, “What? What?”

When she caught sight of the fur ball, she yelped and covered her breasts. “Ohmigod, was that a rat? That looked like a rat.”

A shudder of revulsion consumed me. Immediately denying it, I shook my head. “No. No, maybe it was a kitten. There are a couple gray kittens around.”

Yeah, I could handle a kitten running across my naked butt.
