Chapter 8: The Remote

I pulled the little black bullet out of my bag and laid it in the center of his palm.

I put the remote beside it.

Jesse sat on the edge of the iron bed in his undershirt and jeans.

He turned the two pieces over in his big hand.

"What is this?"

"Something I bought online in Macon the week after the funeral," I said. "I never used it with anyone."

"Why not?"

"Nobody I wanted to hand the remote to."

He looked up.

For a moment he did not move at all.

Then he closed his fingers around both pieces and held them against his chest.

"Tell me the rules," he said.

"The rules are about supper," I said. "At your father's table it's a show."

"A show."

"You don't touch me except where they can see," I said. "What they see is a husband being polite to his wife."

"I won't touch you," he said.

"Good."

"I'll just be holding this," he said.

I felt my face go hot.

"That is the loophole," I said.

"That's a remote." His mouth quirked. "I'm a farmer. I read the instructions."

I laughed, and stepped between his knees, and pulled the green dress up over my head.

Underneath I wore a black lace pair of underwear with a small pocket sewn into the front.

His eyes went to it and stayed.

"You planned this."

"I planned it last night," I said, "while you were asleep on my shoulder."

He put both hands on my hips and drew me down onto the bed beside him.

He kissed me, slow and thorough, until my knees went weak.

"Lie down," he said.

I lay on my side.

He stretched out behind me, fully clothed, with his chest against my back and his knee between mine.

His hand traveled down my side to the lace.

"I'm going to try it first," he said. "I want to know what I'm holding."

He slipped the bullet into the little pocket against my clit and thumbed the remote.

A low buzz started, gentle and steady.

I gasped.

"That's the lowest one?" he asked in my ear.

"That's the lowest," I said.

"What's the highest?"

"Don't," I said.

"I'm only asking."

He pressed a button, and the buzz doubled.

My hips jerked off the quilt.

"Oh, God. Jesse."

"There she is." He nuzzled my hair. "You're so wet already. It's soaking through the lace."
