Chapter 9

Noel

I woke with my heart racing and glanced over to where the girls were curled up together, Diana’s head in Ariel’s armpit. Thankfully, they were still completely passed out.

Carefully sliding off the edge of the bed, I slid my feet into a pair of slippers and quietly left the room. Otto and Esther’s bathroom was a tiny haven as I leaned against the counter and stared at myself in the mirror.

I’d had a sex dream about Titus.

My face flamed red.

I was a mother, for goodness’ sake. I was as round as a bowling ball. What the heck had caused me to have a—if I was being honest with myself, really hot—sex dream about my high school crush? When I’d been young, I used to have those kinds of dreams all the time. I hadn’t been able to escape them. Back then, I’d had a pretty vague understanding of all of it, though, so the dreams had really only consisted of some kissing and heavy petting. By the time that Titus and I had started going farther together, the dreams had tapered off, and afterward…well, I’d been so heartbroken and lost that it wasn’t surprising that I’d stopped having them.

For a while after Titus and I had sex, I’d built the whole thing up in my mind, convincing myself that it had been life changing and wonderful. If that wasn’t a symptom of how immature I’d been, I wasn’t sure what was. I knew all too well what sex looked like now, which is why I was so flabbergasted that I’d had the dream in the first place. Sex with Caleb hadn’t been horrible. He’d been nice up to a point and made sure that he wasn’t hurting me or anything…but he’d had a lot more fun than I ever had. Sex was just another chore to get through, one last thing I’d had to mark off my to-do list before I went to sleep at night.

Esther and Otto clearly had a healthy sexual relationship and I’d gone to public school until I got married, so it wasn’t as if I was under any illusions about sex. People loved it. They threw caution to the wind for it, like my sister had. Like I had.

But once I’d gotten a little older, I’d realized that sex just wasn’t that vital for me. I could take it or leave it. I just figured that I just wasn’t someone who was overly sexual and I was fine with that.

Apparently, I’d been mistaken, because as I stood in the bathroom, my skin still felt like it was overly sensitive and my nipples were pebbled against my pajama shirt. Lifting a hand, I brushed my palm across one of my breasts and hissed. Even mortification hadn’t cooled my body down.

How the heck was I going to face Titus after the dream I’d had? It wasn’t as if I could stay in the bathroom all day. I couldn’t avoid him since he was currently sleeping on my sister’s couch.
