She needs someone to walk her through this.

To occupy all her thoughts.

Or maybe that's my cock talking.

I run my fingers through her hair.

I hold her body against mine until she stops shaking.

Is this for me or her?

I'm not sure.

She has me so fucked up.

I don't know up or down anymore.

I certainly don't know right or wrong.

"You want to feel better, Kay?"

She looks up at me with all that trust in her eyes. "Yeah, but I don't see—"

"You want out of your head or not?"

"I do."

"You trust me?"

"Of course."

"Then go to my room."

Understanding fills her eyes. "You mean—"

"Yeah."

"Oh. Well. Um. Yeah. Okay." She pushes herself to her feet. "Okay. Is Em okay?"

"She's staying with Walker."

"Okay. Good. I, uh... Okay. Do we need a safeword or something?"

It never hurts. "You have something in mind?"

"Tattoo."

Fuck, it's like she's trying to be adorable.

How the hell am I supposed to give her up?

I nod. "Tattoo."

"Okay." Her voice is halfway back to normal. Her posture too.

She's slow about moving into the hallway.

Then into my room.
