Oh God…

How did…

What had…

I must’ve looked like a moron because the crazy man turned to Leif. “Your partner seems slightly overwhelmed. I do that to people, so it’s okay, I’m not offended. But if you’d like to talk to him about the precum situation privately, you can just come over anytime over the next few days.”

Now Leif was wearing a similar stunned stupid expression.

Crazy man sighed and shook his head. “Look, I’m okay with the peeping thing since you’re just curious but no jerking off and nothing weird.”

Oh wow.

“I’m not jerking off.” I wasn’t sure that was where I should’ve started, but it was what came out first. “And we’re not partners, just friends and roommates.”

Now crazy man was the one who looked confused as he glanced back and forth between us and sighed. “Whatever you say.”

Huh?

“I don’t think you realize quite how clearly people can see in through your windows.” Leif ignored all the insanity and simply focused on the practical. It was a very Leif way to handle it. “It’s difficult to tune out unless we close our blinds all day long. We can’t predict when you’re going to have a shoot very well, so that’s not reasonable.”

And it was frustrating because I never knew if it was going to be a lingerie day, a pup one, or nothing at all.

Or if it was crazy man and screaming photographer have sex in the studio day.

We closed the blinds on those days.

Watching that seemed rude.

Crazy man shrugged. “We need the natural light, so like I said, no jerking off or anything weird.”

What would be weird in that situation?

Not that I was planning on doing anything weird, but…but I liked pup day.

“What are you going to define as weird in this situation?” Leif just had to be Leif and ask the question. “I just want to make sure we’re all on the same page.”

“We’re definitely not all on the same page.” Crazy man was back to shaking his head. “Alright, let’s start with what you’re watching.”

“The lingerie.”

“The pups.”

I really shouldn’t have answered that, but in my defense, I was still in shock from everything else. And when both men turned to look at me, I really knew I should’ve kept my mouth shut.

“The pups?” Leif’s eyebrow went up.

Crazy man frowned. “Why not the lingerie?”

Not knowing which nosy question to answer first, I automatically took a step back. “I…the lingerie. I meant to say the models. They’re very pretty and most seem to be very nice.”

Not that I knew that firsthand but most seemed to have a good work ethic.

“Invite me in.” Crazy man sighed just as dramatically as I’d always imagined it sounding. “I’ll take tea or water or juice. I’m at the overload point on caffeine, though.”

“I have some herbal tea?” For some reason, Leif thought that would be a reasonable response.

Crazy man agreed with him based on his polite smile. “That sounds lovely.”
