Her mind jumped to her conversation with Olivia and Isla earlier today. Without overthinking, she fished out the box from under her bed and wiped the dust off it.
Harper had been taking care of herself for as long as she could remember, so what was one more thing to add to her list? She looked at the white and pink box that had never been opened and stared at the clear plastic window, revealing the vibrator inside. It was pink, which made it look a little less intimidating.
Why the fuck not?
Either it would be a waste of time and effort, or it would give her the release she needed while she waited for a real man to come into her life.
She closed her eyes and gave control over to the pink vibrating toy.
Chapter 5
Harper felt refreshed and relaxed. Who knew that all she needed was a little self-care? She walked into the kitchen, her steps lighter, the air around her less restricting. She started the tea kettle and grabbed her mug out of the dry rack.
Even the tension in her neck had eased. It might’ve been the orgasm or the fact that the orgasm took all her energy, and she completely passed out and, for the first time in a very long time, got a full eight hours of sleep.
Milo strolled into the kitchen, his brown hair ruffled from sleep and his eyes still a little droopy.
“Good morning,” she said, noting the extra cheer in her tone.
Milo halted, hand up and looked like he was about to turn around but stopped himself. “Morning,” he said, though it sounded awkward and unsure. He shoved a hand through his hair and turned on the coffeepot.
“You okay?” she asked.
“Fine.” He reached around her and grabbed his coffee mug before coming to a stop in front of the coffeepot. He leaned against the counter and crossed his arms. “So, how was your night?”
Her eyebrow arched as she glanced in his direction. “Not much happened from the time I said goodnight to the time I went to my room.”
He nodded.
“Why are you acting weird?”
“I’m not acting weird.”
“Could have fooled me.”
“It’s just that. Well. I heard a lot of um… noise coming from your room last night.”
“Oh my god.” Heat erupted in her cheeks, snaking out and flowing down her neck and into her chest.
“It’s nothing to be embarrassed about. We’re all sexual beings. But I thought you’d want to know that the walls aren’t that thin.”
Harper’s head fell into her hands. “And he’s still talking.” She loved having roommates, but in a time like this, she really wished she lived alone or that the walls were a little thicker. She wasn’t even loud.
She glanced up at him, his eyes zeroed in on hers and his head tilted. “All I’m saying is if you’re that lonely, I’d be willing to help you out.”
She couldn’t believe they were having this conversation. “Please stop.”
Skepticism shone bright in his eyes, and she wanted to knock him one. “Tell me you never thought about it.”
“About what? Us? No. I never thought about it,” she deadpanned, then realization dawned on her. “Have you?”
“Maybe once or twice back in high school.”
Disbelief swirled in her mind, and she stared at him wide-eyed. “Twice?”
He shrugged like it was no big deal. Itwasa big deal. “I was a horny teenager, and let’s face it, Harp. You were hot.”
“Were?” she asked with a tilt of her eyebrow.
