stop messing around?”

“I’ll pick you up after work,” he says. He grabs his crotch and adjusts it to exaggerated effect, and I can only look away, shake my head.

“No you won’t.”

“We can talk more about my cock piercing then.”

“I’ll cut it off,” I say. I make a pair of scissors out of my index and middle finger.

He winces. “Ouch. See you at six.”

Before I can reply, he’s left the curtain flapping in his wake, his finger in his mouth, and a cocky swagger in his step.

“Not too strong.”

“Yeah.”

“Smells expensive.”

“Sure.”

“I’ve smelled it before. I think it’s—”

I cut her off. “You ready?”

Tina’s
client, and damned if I’m going to lose her because I couldn’t put on a better bedside manner.
