[ Once usually isn't enough for me.

What? What did he do to deserve such teasing words and mental images moving around in his head. Uh oh. Okay, maybe he started it but Dash lifted the teasing to a whole new level and he needed to keep his cool. He meant every bit of what he said about never doing anything sexual while intoxicated. Consent could be slippery then and he refused to even sort of take advantage. It caused too many horrifying flashbacks over what and who he used to be.

Taking a deep breath, he let it out slowly as they made their way to the bedroom. Dash's robe comment anything but humorous to him. More alluring mental images! He would not survive the night. Nope. This would finally do him in.

More deep breaths, this time he managed to sink down onto the bed, taking off is shoes but contemplating with his pants. Usually, he slept nude but obviously couldn't this time around! Talk about unnecessary temptation and seduction there. ]

You should get some rest, Dash. You've had an action packed night. You can tell me all kinds of things you like in the morning.
