Mason, naturally, was onboard with anything X-rated. “It might help you sleep.”
“Thanks for your concern.” His concern was clearly more about hearing Kylie pleasure herself than my sleep.
“You weren’t opposed to rubbing one out before bed last year,” Jude pointed out. Thanks for bringing that up, bro.
“Yeah. After a phone call with Aubrey, you’d jerk off immediately.” Mason said something else, too, but my heart stopped. He’d said her name. Aubrey. I’d heard it in my head a million times in the past week alone, but it was the first time I’d heard someone else say it in a long while.
Jude shot Mason a nasty look, while Kylie looked at me with concern. “I’m sorry,” she said. “I didn’t mean to pressure you. I just—I don’t think I can make myself come if you’re not on board.”
I waved her off. “Whatever you want to do is fine with me.”
She bit her lip. “I know, but… I’d feel embarrassed if you were just trying to sleep, and I’m right across from you doing…” She trailed off.
“Paddling the pink canoe?” Mason supplied. He had such a way with words. Kylie lobbed an empty beer can at his head, but he batted it away easily.
“Really classy, man,” Jude said. Then he looked at me. “We all know you’re not sleeping enough.”
“I know.”
“And I know how hard it is for you, but you can’t go on like this,” Jude continued. “You’ve got to do something about it. Maybe go to the gym with us sometime. Or take a long walk. Do something so that you’re tired enough to go to bed at a reasonable hour.”
“Personally, if you’re not feeling up for that kind of thing yet, rubbing one out while a hot girl uses a vibrator on herself seems like a good alternative,” Mason said.
If I had more energy, I’d tell him to shut the fuck up.
But then he softened his message somewhat. “What you’re doing isn’t healthy. Give your body the rest it needs.”
That was the cure for a broken heart? Jerking off? But it was true that it was something I used to do before bed. At least a couple of times a week if not more. It was enjoyable and a quick stress reliever. Now, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d touched my cock in that way.
Maybe this unconventional idea was a first very strange step toward the land of the living? “All right, I’ll do it.”
“Awesome,” Jude said.
“That’s my boy,” Mason said, reaching over to give me a high five.
Then all eyes were on Kylie as she stared at me. “Wait, what?”

Kylie
Stunned, I remained frozen on the couch after the guys got up to get a snack. Parker wasn’t supposed to agree to the weirdest plan in history. I never in a million years thought he’d agree to it.
Yet… I hadn’t suggested it just to get Jude and Mason off my case. I really did wish Parker would relax and start to enjoy things he used to. Things that nearly all guys liked. And judging by how hard it was to get to sleep while sexually frustrated the last few nights, I did believe in the ability of an orgasm to help you nod off. But still… he’d actually said yes.
The man who wouldn’t answer until you called his name a half dozen times had said yes to that.
Which meant I’d run out of excuses. It wasn’t like I didn’t want to try the vibrator. I’d had one in college, though it had spent most of its battery-operated life hidden at the back of my underwear drawer. Before that, I didn’t have any way to get something like that. My tiny town of Norris didn’t exactly have any sex shops. And I didn't even have my own credit card to order things online until I went away for school.
My old vibe hadn’t been as nice as the one the guys had bought me. It had been too thick. At first, I thought the surest way to get an orgasm was to insert it, but it was far too wide for that. Then I’d done some reading online and learned more about the female orgasm.
That in itself was frustrating. It seemed like guys were born with the knowledge of how to get themselves off, but I’d had to do research. After that, I tried pressing the tip of the vibrator to my clit, but the stupid thing was too big and blunt, and I ended up throwing it out. The new one, which I hadn’t even taken out of the package, was not that much bigger than a lipstick, and it came to a rounded point that looked like it might get the job done a lot better.
I couldn’t wait to try it, but I’d intended for its first outing to be while I was alone.
