“Making out,” Isabel supplies helpfully.
I glare. “Thanks. So, we’re watching the game and it was dark and he was stressed and we ended up getting close—"
“But with clothes on.”
“And then we were lying down—”
“On top of each other.”
“And things were getting a bit heated—”
“Dry humping.”
“But before anything more could happen, Julien pulled back—”
“Humped too hard.”
“And he exacerbated his hip,” I finish without reacting to any of Isabel’s interjections, which I’m quite proud of.
“Who says dry humping anymore?” Paige asks.
“Excuse me for being excited! Leah is the only one not banging one of my brothers so it’s fun to talk about someone’s sex lifewithout internally gagging.”
“You never gag internally,” Dana says. This is what I love about Dana. She comes in with the best underhanded remarks sometimes.
“Also, wait, did you saybefore anything more could happen? What happened?”
Isabel claps. “Ooooh, I don’t know this part.”
“That’s because it wasn’t pertinent to tell Dr. Douche that I orgasmed. He only asked about Julien.”
Paige says, “Caleb was his doctor again?”
At the same time, Isabel says, “Oh my god, how was your orgasm?”
I sigh, not really wanting to answer either of those questions.
“Yes, because Caleb was the doctor who fixed his hip the first time, he treated Julien again.” When I turn to Isabel, she’s laughing hysterically at Paige’s irritation. “It was an orgasm,” I say with a shrug.
Dana snorts.
“What?” I ask, surprised it’s her and not the two bloodhounds.
“I may be married, but I’m not blind. There’s no way sex with Julien would be anything less than fantastic.” She gives me a knowing smirk I don’t like one bit.
My cheeks flare with heat. And with the memory of Julien’s hands on me at the forefront of my mind, I fully miss the next ball.
Paige isn’t as interested in my pitiful excuse for a lie. She’s still focused on Isabel. “Caleb is your spy?”
Isabel shrugs. “I was at the hospital, and we bumped into each other. He asked how Julien was. Imagine my surprise when I found out why he’d been there. I love it when my cases involve sex scandals.”
“This is not a sex scandal.” No one is remotely listening to me now.
“I mean, ‘Beautiful Bombshell Mom Takes Out Top NHL Goalie with Her Sexual Prowess’ is kind of a good headline.”
“Oh my god, he was hurt before the ...”
“Humping? Injury-inducing orgasm?” Isabel is a force to be reckoned with.
