“Yeah. I’d get weepy every night after we hung up. I wanted to tell you to come home but I knew I couldn’t.”
“I’m glad you didn’t. I would have been packing up my car and speeding back. I mean, it’s still tough some days but I’m starting to settle in.”
“Oh, I almost forgot! Miss Dawson popped in on us the other day to give her condolences and to drop off some baby stuff.”
“She’s the best.”
“She is. She was the best teacher I ever had.”
I nod my head again. “Same for me.”
“Anyway, she told me you joined the dance club up there? What the hell, Sky…You’ve been holding out on me?”
“It’s nothing. She pushed me to sign up so I’d meet some people. And whatever, it’s turned out to be a good thing. I feel totally awkward because some of the girlsandthe guys…” I trail off, trying to think of a way to do them justice. “Sienna, they dance like they should be on Broadway. I’m serious!”
“I’m sure you’re doing just fine. One thing I know for sure is that the Perillo twins can shake it.”
“Damn straight,” Garth says.
“Is he listening in on this entire conversation?”
When he says, “Damn straight,” again, we both crack up laughing.
“I have period cramps, Garth. Any suggestions?”
“Hot shower followed by some hot sex. That always does the trick around here.”
Sienna is laughing so hard she can’t catch her breath. And shame on me, I should know by now that Garth doesn’t get embarrassed or back down so easily.
“Being that the second half of that plan isn’t an option, I’m going to say goodnight to you two freaks.”
“Love you, Sky.”
“Yeah, I love you guys too.”
I walk along, smiling and laughing to myself.Hot sex.I don’t think I’ve ever had sex that could be described as truly hot. I’ve given myself some spectacular orgasms, but Tyler? Hmm, I definitely enjoyed the journey to the finish line with him but he never got me all the way there.
He’d always finish first and pretty much collapse on top of me right after. I didn’t have it in me to ask for what I wanted. It was just easier to call it a day, to pretend when he’d ask if it was good for me.
Lying in bed wide awake, long after my roommate’s breathing evens out in a way that tells me she’s down for the count, I slip my hand under my shirt and move up, cupping one breast and then the other.
I picture Tyler at first, but the image of him pressing his body against mine does nothing for me. Slipping my other hand beneath the waistband of my sleep shorts, I go with the image of a stranger. He’s broad-shouldered, muscular and powerful. His legs are strong and his ass is firm. He towers above me, making me feel like I’m at his mercy. His hands are rough but his touch is gentle, and his words are kind and reverent. He tells me that I’m his, that I’m all he needs.
At a certain point I’m aware that my stranger has taken the form of that man, Libby’s dad, otherwise known as Grumpy Daddy, but I ignore that inconvenient turn of events in my fantasy.
Grump or not, the man was hot, and right now he’s giving me the absolute best oral I’ve ever had. I’m close, so close, but I still can’t get there until I picture him bending me over the desk in my office and pounding me into oblivion.
I sound like I’ve run a marathon, and pull the blankets up over my head to muffle the sound as I come down from that blessed high.
Rolling over, now in a pleasantly hypnotic state, I giggle as I drift off to sleep. It may have been his face and his body, but the oh so lovely man in my fantasy was a big step up from that uptight jerk.

“Maureen, you have to lighten up on the junk food, ok?”
An eye roll? Did she seriously just roll her eyes at me?
