“You know I’m all for helping test them.”

“Yeah, I appreciate it. We should be at that stage soon.” If things go well, we could have a cutting-edge hockey skate in our fall catalog, and I could end up with an awesome bonus.

We’re called up for round two. This time it’s a Lamborghini, and I get behind the wheel first. Car racing is a blast. We trade spots after a while, and then we switch to the final car. Afterward, we return to the hotel to shower and get ready for dinner. The guys can’t stop talking about their racetrack exploits. You’d think they were pro drivers, not hockey players. They’re like giant twelve-year-olds. I mean, me too, I guess. It was pretty great.

When everyone’s ready, we all head out together. I check myphone and find a new message. The guys are busy either texting their partners or sharing videos they took of the cars they drove.

Essie

Where are you going for dinner?

Nate

Where are you going for dinner?

Essie

I asked first.

A picture of her holding a banana pops up. Her fingernails are a pretty pale pink, and they feature stars in yellow that shoot across her fingers.

Nate

Is this a bribe?

Essie

Is it working?

Nate

No.

It absolutely is. I’m already picturing my cock sliding through her hand, thumb rubbing the crown.

Two more pictures pop up. One is a neck-down shot of Essie standing in front of the bathroom mirror wearing a sparkly, black dress with little pink hearts edging the hem, and a plunging neckline that highlights her cleavage. The second shows off the back of the dress, which dips low in the back. There’s no bra. There can’t be. Which means her nipples are just a thin piece of fabric away.

Essie

*eyelash batting GIF*

Are you sure you don’t want to give me a hint?

Nate

So you can torture me for two hours in that dress? Not a chance.

Another picture comes through. This time it’s a close-up of her mouth, and her lips are wrapped around the banana.

Essie

Suit yourself.

“Everything good, man?” Tristan asks.

“Huh?” I click the side button and my screen goes blank.

“Everything cool?” He glances at my phone.
