Chapter 15

Cameron leaves before dawn breaks. She kisses me quick and follows Daphne to the front door.

“Get home safe.” Daphne pulls her into an embrace and they kiss. Cameron turns and gives me one last wave before joining what’s left of the night. I’m unable to move. Daphne shuts the door.

“I need to pee,” I tell her.

“So go.” She passes me and I take a step forward, realizing the controls are toned down now that Cameron is gone. I follow her upstairs and go into our bathroom. I shut the door and try to lock it but my hand won’t let me. Instead, I lean against it and steady my breathing. The reality of the night is still making me reel. Whatever happened will be better processed lying down with my head on a pillow; my body’s exhausted. I pee, put on some pajamas, and slide into bed next to Daphne. She’s facing the bathroom, but I didn’t check if her eyes were still open. I stare at her shoulders and wait for them to move. They don’t.

“Are you okay?” I ask. We didn’t really talk during the threesome—well, not about anything of substance.

“I’m not controlling.” She turns so her body is facing mine. “I don’t mind sharing you.” Gently, she cups my cheek and kisses my lips. Her thumb brushes my brow as her fingers crawl into my hair. I close my eyes.

“Did you enjoy it?” she whispers. Thunder is roaring inside my chest. I use my front teeth to pinch a piece of my inner lip, keeping it from trembling. The storm inside me grows. I fight to stay still, breathing quietly. I keep my eyes closed but I hear Daphne reach over to the nightstand. I’m replaying how warm Cameron’s skin was against mine when we last embraced. The way her breasts felt pressed against mine. Tasting myself on her lips one last time.

I peek up at Daphne; she’s holding the device in front of her. “Hazel, did you enjoy tonight?” she asks again. Her voice is still soft but there’s a tinge of urgency.

“Yes,” I say. Daphne stares at me and we make eye contact. It’s supposed to be the truth. Does she see something else? We stare at each other until Daphne breaks away. She gazes at the ceiling.

It’s easy for there to be multiple truths in a situation like this one. I may have felt pleasure from tonight’s escapade, immense pleasure, but it wasn’t what I wanted. That’s not how I wanted to have sex with Cameron. None of it was in my control, no matter how accurately Daphne mimicked my daydreams. I doubt my fantasies were the only ones being played out tonight. Not that I’d label any of Daphne’s ideas as “fantasies.”

“Did you enjoy it?” I ask her.

“I enjoyed it.” Daphne sinks into bed and reaches to stroke my cheek. This time I can faintly smell myself and Cameron on her fingers.

“I think Cameron did too,” I say, and breathe in through my nose.
