Prompt: Reid's first time in a sex shop.
Emily and Reid had started dating five months ago. And so far, things were still great. At first, they weren't really dating. They were just two good friends with common interests who hung out together after work. But the more time they spent together, the more they grew physically attracted to each other. So finally, they decided to date for real.
It was weird for Emily because she had never dated a co-worker, or a younger guy, or anyone like Reid. But dating Reid was very easy. After all these years, she knew that he was 'one of a kind'.
It was around 9:00 am by the time Emily slowly woke up. Reid was still asleep, close beside her. She kissed his shoulder before she carefully climbed out of bed.
As Emily showered, she reviewed her plans for Reid's 30th Birthday. Though the team was organizing a small party for Reid, no one knew about their relationship and she was a little nervous because this was the first birthday as his girlfriend. She wanted to spent some time alone with him, and offer him something much more personal.
After her shower, Emily headed into the kitchen to start breakfast. Just as she finished making pancakes, she felt Reid wrap his arms around her waist as he kissed her neck.
"Good morning." He whispered in his sexy sleepy voice.
"Good morning and happy birthday!" She said, as she turned around and kissed him deeply.
"How do you want to spend the day?" Reid asked. He wanted to go back to bed with her and make love until they had to meet the team at 6:00 pm. But Emily had something else in mind.
"I want to take you somewhere. And then, I'm all yours." She said.
Emily smiled when Reid nodded his approval. She knew that if she told him exactly where they were going that he would never have agreed with her.
Reid had no idea what their final destination was until Emily parked the car. And when he saw the tinted-glass doors and the big letters SEX SHOP in front of him, he realized where they were going.
"Come on. It's going to be fun!" Emily laughed, as she took his hand and dragged him into the shop.
Reid was surprised how large and understated it was on the inside. There weren't any suggestive posters on the walls, and the patrons were mostly women, and couples. He was nervous, and felt his cheeks burning. As he and Emily walked around, he avoided eye contact with the other customers. Despite being from Las Vegas, Reid was still uncomfortable regarding the sex industry. He was embarrassed being in this shop.
On the other hand, Emily was quite comfortable around adult toys. Reid knew that she had a few at home because she was an independent woman, fully aware of her own sexuality. But she never used sex toys when he was there.
He began to wonder why Emily had brought him to this place. Was this some kind of hint about their sex life? Was she bored with him and needed to spice things up? Reid had not been with a lot of women, but he knew how to please them. Well, at least that was what they had told him.
"I'm buying you a gift. But it's a surprise, so you can't come with me. In the meantime, get some things that you want. Ok?" Emily said, giving Reid a quick kiss before she headed towards the lingerie area.
Reid looked around for a bit. He avoided the shelves full of porn movies. He also avoided the bondage section. Because unlike Rihanna, chains and whips never excited him. He grabbed some condoms, lube, and massage lotions. He didn't really need them, but he didn't want to be empty-handed when Emily returned. He waited for her near the cash register.
"Can I help you with something, sir?" The clerk said. The young woman smiled from behind the counter. She was about 5' 7", blonde, in her early thirties, and the name "Jill" was on her nametag.
"It's OK." Reid cleared his throat, as his face became even redder. He didn't know what to say.
"Is this your first time here?" She asked. He nodded, slightly.
"Looking for a toy? We have a large and interesting collection for men." The clerk said.
Reid coughed, embarrassed. He would never judge men or women who tried to improve their sex lives. But this just was not his thing.
"It's Ok. I'm waiting for my girlfriend." He mumbled.
"Just let me know if you need anything." The clerk said.
At this point, all Reid needed was to go home before he died of embarrassment. Luckily for him, Emily joined him at the counter. She had finished her shopping, and was holding a small wrapped package.
"Do you need anything else?" Emily asked him. He didn't respond so she demanded "Are you OK?"
"I'm fine." Reid said. But she could now see his discomfort. So, she quickly paid for their items, and they left the shop.
As they got back into the car, Emily still couldn't figure out what was bothering Reid.
"What's wrong? Talk to me, baby." She said, as she looked into his beautiful hazel eyes.
"Are you satisfied? I mean, do I sexually satisfy you?" Reid whispered.
Emily looked at him like he was insane. Why the hell would he even ask something like that? Even though he was less experienced than she was, Reid knew about things that she never thought were possible. And he was very open-minded in bed.
"You make me very happy, sexually and otherwise. I guess I brought you here to let you know that it's Ok for you to talk to me about your needs. You've told me a lot about your past and your family, including some painful memories. But you hardly ever talk about your sexual needs and desires. I don't want you to feel frustrated, or used in our relationship. I love you so much." She said, as she continued looking into his beautiful eyes.
Reid didn't know how to respond, because he never felt used or frustrated around her. He was very happy with Emily as his girlfriend. She was smart, funny, beautiful, and sexy. She was his best friend, his colleague, his lover, and his confidant.
"Trust me. I'm not frustrated at all. I don't talk about my desires because I don't need toys, clothes, or anything from this shop to be sexually satisfied with you. I'm very happy." He said. Then, he kissed her.
After a few seconds, Emily ended the kiss and said, "We should get going. I've planned a lot of things today just for you."
"By the way, what did you buy ?" Reid asked, as she started the car. Emily pretended that she didn't hear him.
So, with an evil smile, Reid said, "Ok. Keep your precious secret. But remember, your birthday is in three days."
