Cat Snips - a Short Story Collection by Cat Johnson by Cat Johnson Page B

being together sans
electronic devices, now he suddenly wondered where they were? “Did
your little sleazy barfly nurse have toys?”
    “ Meg…” His
voice held a warning while his hand stopped its blissful
ministrations and began to pull away.
    She grabbed his wrist to keep him
there. “Wait. I’m sorry.”
    “ I’ll consider
letting it slide this time if you break out your vibrator.” He
waggled his eyebrows playfully. He sat up and with both hands pulled
off the pajama bottoms she’d put back on after their earlier
fight.
    She couldn’t figure out why
he would be interested in her vibrator, but at the moment, in spite
of her mad, she was too horny to care. She rolled toward the bedside
table, slid open the drawer and pulled out the requested item. Her
favorite big girl toy of them all, the pink Rabbit vibrator, which
she had nicknamed Bunny.
    “ As seen on Sex
and the City,” the package had read. She figured if it was good enough for those
girls, it was good enough for her and she hadn’t been
disappointed. In the pleasure department, to date it had proved to be
the best thing without a pulse a girl could get between her thighs.
    Jeff smiled at the sight and
reached for the nightstand to grab the condom again. Her anger
returned at the visual reminder of what he’d done last Friday
night.
    Turning back to her, he took one
look at her face and demanded, “Stop. I’m sorry I did it
and I will get tested again as soon as possible. But for now, we’re
stuck using a condom. Okay?”
    Sometimes it was a curse he knew
her so well. Even if she wanted to hide what she was feeling, she
couldn’t. He
could read it all over her face. She’d learned never to play
poker against him.
    “ Did you at least use a
condom with the nurse ?”
The last word came out sounding like a curse.
    “ Yes.”
    “ Do you carry them around
with you at all times in case you get lucky?” That came out
sounding pretty nasty also, but the thought he might be out looking
for sex with others made her sick.
    He sighed deeply. “No, I
don’t. She had them at her place.”
    “ Figures,” Meg
grumbled.
    He let out a short laugh. “What
do you have against nurses anyway?”
    She hated being laughed at when
she was mad. It made her even angrier. “Nothing.”
    At least, she didn’t used
to. Apparently, it was just this one particular nurse…and the
fact she’d fucked Jeff in particular.
    Jeff continued to run his hand up
and down her bare leg while they spoke, causing her skin to prickle
with goose bumps. Finally Meg’s need and curiosity won out over
her displeasure. “Why did you want Bunny out?”
    “ Bunny? You named it?”
He laughed again.
    She looked away, embarrassed.
“Yes. And stop laughing at me.”
    “ I think it’s cute.”
Jeff squeezed her leg and she looked up in time to see his warm
smile.
    “ Why did you want him?”
she repeated.
    He grinned wider. “You’ll
see. Trust me.”
    Meg frowned again. Good old
predictable Jeff was proving himself to be not so predictable any
longer. She wasn’t sure she liked this new turn of events at
all.
    He didn’t give her time to
consider it further as he leaned in closer. “Now come here and
be quiet so I can kiss you.”
    She scowled until the pressure of
his mouth forced hers into a different position entirely. As he
kissed her deeply, his tongue sliding between her lips and stroking
in and out slowly against hers, simulating what he would soon do to
her body, she let her anger go. It was hard to stay mad at Jeff when
he kissed her like that.
    Remembering their first kiss
ever, that night months ago, she realized Jeff’s kisses had
been her downfall to begin with.
    The strong, slightly rough touch
of his hands roamed, pushing her top up. He had to break the kiss to
pull the shirt off over her head. He gazed at her nakedness. Her
nipples were puckering in the chill air, but he soon bent to warm her
with his mouth.
    He took his time, nibbling on
each breast, one by
