Adam
Adam
Did you leave something on the sofa again?
Jenna
Jenna
Yup!
Adam
Adam
Well, it ain’t a toy, but I’ll take the bottle of pinot. Thanks for thinking of me, Rosy.
Jenna
Jenna
It was the least I could do to thank you for the panties.
Jenna
Jenna
I’ve got my own wine here in my hotel room. Lil bottles from the mini bar. So cute!
Adam
Adam
What’s the occasion?
Jenna
Jenna
Dunno. Just happy to have a job that lets me travel and meet with investors.
Jenna
Jenna
Best job evah!
Adam
Adam
And how much of that wine have you had?
Jenna looks at the one little bottle on the nightstand and drinks from the second.
Jenna
Jenna
I’m nicely buzzed but not out of my mind.
Adam
Adam
Are you texting because you miss me?
Jenna
Jenna
I suppose I do miss your cocky charm 😉
Adam
Adam
All right. Let me pour myself a glass and you can tell me why you broke into the mini bar.
Jenna
Jenna
YES. We’re having a roomie talk! It’s almost like I’m there with you.
Adam
Adam
Not quite.
Jenna
Jenna
I know. But I can’t imagine what it’d be like to face you after what we started.
Adam
Adam
That’s not a reason to stop this though…right?
She puts down the bottle and nestles into the bed, the warm wine humming through her.
Is this a good time to tell him she’s wearing his gift panties?
Jenna
Jenna
Right. I’ve decided to give you permission to do something you totally want to do.
Jenna
Jenna
Then we’re going to forget all about it. Okay?
Adam
Adam
This is surreal, but yes, okay.
Adam
Adam
But first — are you sure you haven’t had too much wine?
Jenna
Jenna
Want me to recite the alphabet backward? Or walk you through all the decimals of pi?
Adam
Adam
Haha, in that case, I believe you.
Jenna
Jenna
Then here we go.
Jenna
Jenna
Didn’t you tell me that you wanted to see my notorious nightie?
Adam
Adam
Damn.
Jenna
Jenna
I believe that’s the caveman way of saying YES, I TOLD YOU THAT.
Jenna
Jenna
Thus, for one night only…
Jenna
Jenna
I’m allowing you to open my closed bedroom door to take a peek inside.
Jenna
Jenna
But ONLY at my lingerie drawer.
This offer has been gnawing away at her all day long.
She buries her face in the pillow, waiting for a response.
Adam
Adam
Which drawer is it?
Jenna
Jenna
You’re in my room already?
Adam
Adam
Like I’m going to wait?
Jenna
Jenna
It’s the middle drawer under the mirror.
Jenna
Jenna
DON’T cheat and look anywhere else.
Adam
Adam
You know I’d never cheat on you, Rosy.
Jenna
Jenna
#Aw
Jenna
Jenna
Did you find the drawers?
Adam
Adam
Adam
Adam
What if I took this OUT of the drawer?
Jenna
Jenna
Um…
Adam
Adam
I want to hold it against my face so I can smell you.
Jenna
Jenna
Permission granted.
Adam
Adam
Damn, it smells amazing. Just like you.
Adam
Adam
Flowers. Your skin. Something else.
Jenna
Jenna
Oh…
Jenna slips her fingers under her shirt, touching her belly, then slides them down further.
She turns on Voice to Text…
Jenna
Jenna
Maybe you should describe what you’re imagining…
Adam
Adam
Okay. You’re wearing this nightie. I can see the hint of your curves under it.
Adam
Adam
Your breasts…your waist…your hips…
Adam
Adam
I’m on my knees in front of you and I lift up the chiffon…
Jenna
Jenna
Oh my God…
Adam
Adam
And then I have to taste you.
Jenna
Jenna
Yes you do.
Across the country, Jenna is actually moaning.
She’s imagining the moment too…
Adam
Adam
When you come, you nearly scream and melt against me…
Adam
Adam
But I catch you before you fall.
Jenna presses her face into the pillow.
Her cries get muffled until they become happy sighs.
Adam
Adam
You still there?
Jenna
Jenna
Barely. This a first.
Adam
Adam
What is?
Jenna
Jenna
Let’s just say I’ve never been satisfied like that before.
Jenna
Jenna
Ever.
Adam
Adam
That’s because no one knows you like I do.
Adam
Adam
My sweet, nerdy, hellishly hot Jenna.
Adam
Adam
I always liked you the way you were, but damn, I’m liking you this way too.
Adam
Adam
I’m liking every version of you.
An emotional surge consumes her, and she sucks in another tense, liberating breath.
She lets it shudder out.
Jenna
Jenna
Wanna open up another drawer then tell me what you see?
Adam
Adam
Please tell me you have a cosplay drawer with corsets…
Jenna
Jenna
Second from the bottom.
Adam
Adam
I’m so digging this.
Adam
Adam
Jenna
Jenna
You watch Game of Thrones, huh?
Adam
Adam
Um yeah. You’d make the hottest Margaery imaginable.
Adam
Adam
But I want Jenna, not her.
Jenna
Jenna
OMG, you’re going to make me come again, aren’t you?
Adam
Adam
I can make you do that all night.
Jenna
Jenna
I’ve already had my fun. I want YOU to do it now.
Jenna
Jenna
Look in my two top drawers. What do you see?
Adam
Adam
Adam
Adam
Sitting down on your bed now.
Adam
Adam
So this is what you keep hidden under those business suits.
Jenna
Jenna
Very hidden. No one else has ever seen these things but you.
Adam
Adam
Goddammit…
She sits up, imagining Adam’s green eyes full of heat and need.
Jenna
Jenna
Picture me in that bra and panties as I lean against the wall across the room.
Adam
Adam
Just so you know, my hands are gonna be busy here…
Jenna
Jenna
Good, because I’m slowly walking over to you as your gaze devours me.
Jenna
Jenna
I’m so hot tonight. It’s summer, and I need you to take these things off of me.
Jenna
Jenna
So I stand in front of you, letting you reach up to unhook my bra.
She brushes her fingers over her chest.
Jenna
Jenna
As you slide it off me, my breasts are exposed.
Jenna
Jenna
You slide your hands up my waist to cup them…
Jenna
Jenna
I reach down to your fly, and you’re ready for me.
Jenna
Jenna
I pump you up, then down, slowly at first, then faster, faster…
She pictures him doing the same, and she gets so damned hot.
Jenna
Jenna
And when you come, my name is on your lips.
Adam
Adam
Goddamn, Jen.
Adam
Adam
Tell me you changed your mind about coming back to your place before I leave tomorrow.
She almost types YES, but then only smiles wistfully.
Jenna
Jenna
Sweet dreams, Adam.
Because as sated as Jenna is, she panics for a moment—
Now Adam knows what’s in her drawers.
Taking a calming breath, she promises herself she’ll never let him see what’s in her closet…
Adam
