She gives me a tiny smirk. “Thank you.”

“My goal is to make every one of those pairs of panties wet.”

A soft choking noise escapes her lips. “Oh, really!”

“Yeah.” I should go get her some bras that match the panties. Yeah, I’m definitely going to do that. I just needed to sneak a peek at her bra to see what size it is. Though I’m pretty sure 34C is it. “Just gonna go clean up.”

I stroll through her bedroom to the bathroom, taking a detour of a few steps to snag the bra on her dresser. Heh. I was right.

In the bathroom, I pause. That was intense. Maybe because I’d been so keyed up after talking about Aidan. I never do that, but telling her actually felt . . . okay, I guess. We have something in common, people we loved and lost, even though neither of said very much about it. But I think we both understood that.

She’s added her shorts by the time I get back, but that’s okay because her ridiculous legs are on display, her feet propped on the edge of the coffee table.

“It’s still early.” I drop down beside her again. “How about we watch a movie?”

She blinks at me. “Like, on TV?”

“Uh, yeah.”

She makes a face but reaches for the remote control. “Here.”

“You have Netflix, right?”

“No.”

“What? No Netflix?”

“No.”

“Hulu?”

“No.”

“Uh . . . HBO?”

Her forehead wrinkled. “Maybe.”

“How do you watch movies?”

“I don’t.”

My chin drops to my chest and I stare at her. “Never?”

“Well, maybe once in a while . . . Okay, not really. I don’t have time to watch a lot of TV. I watch the news.”

I heave a sigh and start channel-surfing. “No Xbox? DVD player?”

She laughs softly. “I’m really letting you down here, aren’t I?”

“Okay, get your laptop. Is your TV Bluetooth? We can log into my Amazon account.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

I laugh, but I’m not sure if she’s serious or yanking my chain. “For this, we’re gonna watch porn.”

“Oooh. I’ll get my laptop.”

I bark out a surprised laugh and shake my head, watching her stroll across to the desk.
