Sasha doesn’t tell us how to distract Terrence long enough so she can remove the dilators from his Amazon shopping cart; she just says, “Go!”

So, Reggie and I are standing in the middle of the hallway, sweating bullets as Terrence rounds the corner. I have every intention to let Reggie take the lead, until I see Dom walk up after Terrence. I nearly spill all over the floor when he looks at me.

“Dom?” I say. My voice croaks, like I haven’t spoken in years. It feels like we haven’t spoken in years.

“Mo?” He’s just as surprised.

Terrence says, “Reggie? Monique? Where’s Sasha?”

“Uh,” I say, turning to Reggie.

“Uh,” he says, looking at me with the same question mark on his face. He raises his eyebrows, urging me to come up with something.

So, I say the first thing that comes to mind: “She’s pooping.”

Reggie snorts and turns to me. I shrug. “Yep, she’s pooping,” he says, nodding. “She actually has explosive diarrhea, the poor girl. She asked us to guide you back downstairs, so the smell doesn’t overcome you.” Reggie waves his arms forward, trying to usher them downstairs.

Terrence doesn’t budge. “Nah, man. We’re just going to my room.”

“You’re too close, good sir!” Reggie says. “I can already smell it from here. We must go downstairs at once. Right, Monique?” He looks at me.

“What? Oh, yeah. Poop.”

That’s all I say.

Reggie looks at my face, and he can’t stop himself. He busts out laughing. My mouth drops open, because I don’t know whether to laugh too or to try to keep up these poop charades. But Reggie howls, “Really?” and I can’t help myself when he laughs like that.

“Reggie, stop!” When I push on his chest, he grabs my arms and holds on because he can barely stand. It’s not that funny, but his laugh is so contagious.

Terrence says, “Are y’all high or something?” He scoots around us, and there’s nothing we can do to stop him, because we’ve lost our breath from laughing so hard. We’ve completely failed Sasha.

Dom, on the other hand, doesn’t like how Reggie is holding on to me. He grabs my waist with one hand and pries Reggie’s fingers from my skin with his other, saying, “All right, that’s enough.”

And it feels like it’s been so long since he’s touched me. When he does, I’m instantly entranced. Gone, up and out of my mind. The only thing I can concentrate on is being touched by him.

As Terrence nears the doorway of his room, Sasha suddenly walks out. “Sasha, what the—”

“Hey, bro,” she says nonchalantly.

“The hell are you doing in my room?”

She shrugs. “It’s where I go to fart. I don’t want to stink up my own room.”

“You nasty little . . .” He shakes his head. “How many times do I have to tell you to stay out of my room?”

“Just five more times, then I think I’ll understand.” She walks past him, giving me and Reggie a quick bulge of her eyes. “Well, we should get going.” She grabs my hand on her way past, pulling me out of Dom’s arms.
