She still couldn’t believe she’d said that an orgasm could help her sleep. What if he’d thought that she had wanted him to give her the orgasm?
God.
Immy didn’t really know how to flirt. She’d had no real experience. The guys had always protected her so heavily that she hadn’t had that normal teenage dating experience. And then after that . . . well . . . there had been Bob. But she’d thought Bob was a friend.
Bob had wanted more and Immy had had no idea.
So, yep, she had no game. No experience. And, apparently, she blurted stuff out without thinking first.
Dumbass.
Jenner frowned and then held open his arms. Without thought, she moved to him, cuddling into his side. Leaning down, he kissed her head.
“That’s no good. Nightmare?”
“Just couldn’t sleep so I was going to bake some cookies. I think I woke up Tobias.”
“Didn’t wake me. I was checking outside.”
“It’s dangerous to walk around at night,” she told him. “What if someone was out there? I don’t think your flashlight will help much.”
“I’m always prepared.” He winked at her.
Wait. Was he flirting?
Oh God. She wished she knew.
“When do you sleep?”
“Don’t need much,” Tobias told her.
“Come on, Immy,” Jenner said. “I’ll get you a pill and you can go back to bed.”
She nodded, chewing on her lip. The last thing she really wanted was to go back to bed. But she also didn’t want to wake up the rest of the household just because she couldn’t sleep.
“She doesn’t like the pills,” Tobias told Jenner. “They make her feel weird.”
Oh. Cupcakes.
Had Tobias really told Jenner that?
Jenner turned her to face him, his hand going to her chin to tilt her head back. “Immy? Is that true?”
“Umm.”
Jenner frowned down at her. “Immy. You never told me that. Why didn’t you say that you didn’t like taking them?”
“I don’t know. I just . . . you guys worry if I don’t sleep.”
“It’s no good if they make you feel funny,” Jenner told her. “We’ll find something else to help you when you can’t sleep.”
“I sleep pretty good most of the time. I’m just . . . worried about Maeve.”
Jenner nodded knowingly. “I get it. We all are. I don’t like trusting her protection to someone else. I wish she was here.”
“Gray Hawkins isn’t someone you mess with,” Tobias commented. “Your friend is in good hands.”
“Right. Thanks.” Jenner gave him a curious look. “And thanks for sitting up with Immy.” He turned back to her. “Next time, come get me, baby.”
