God, I f*cking missed you.

We have to be careful.

I'd love to photograph you sometime.

Would you take your clothes off?

I've got a girl for you.

Is it her?

Ashley? No, she's...

Dangerous.

She's also off limits.

I decide who's off limits.

You're Nolan Keats?

Yes. It's my pen name.

If you still need proof, I can give it to you.

[clears throat] Hello.

Did you get my gift?

I did.

Thank you.

So now do you believe me?

I'm sorry I didn't before.

I don't blame you.

It's good to be skeptical of strangers.

So is this the new book you have coming out in the fall?

Yes.

Wow.

What?

Oh, okay.

So when I heard there was a second book coming out, I freaked I got so excited.

Well, I hope this one doesn't disappoint then.

Oh, it won't. You're brilliant.

In fact, I've been trying to figure out a way to contact you ever since I read "sl*ve" so I could tell you that.

Really?

I think more than anything I just wanted to say thank you.

For what?

That book completely changed my entire perspective on sex and love, and it opened up this part of me that...

Dude, Tomas wants them to renew their wedding vows.

Okay. We'll talk about it later.

She hasn't told him she's leaving him.

What the f*ck!

Hello?

I'm still here.

Sorry. My roommate was having a crisis.

What was I saying?

How my book changed your perspective on sex.

Oh, right.

Yeah, it flipped on this switch inside me, and I haven't been the same since.

Elaborate.

Um...

I had the most intense orgasm of my life reading your book.

Hello?

I'll call you tomorrow.

I will.

I didn't ask you.

No, he did, because you haven't told him you're leaving him.

Why?

I'm waiting for the right time.

This is the right time.

End it or I'm done.

♪

I'm getting really tired of you telling me no.

Well, if you're such a fan of giving orders, why don't you find your own submissive?

I prefer being on my knees begging you to give me what I want.

What is that?

I want to f*ck you.

It's been a while. You're frustrating me.

I've been busy.

What if I find us someone...

Dillon.

Someone we can both have fun with.

You know that I know what you like.

I'll think about it.

Why are you doing this to me?

God, I hate you.

You wish you hated me.

Hey, have you forgiven me yet for the other night?

For which part?

Attacking me in the hallway or puking in the front lawn?

Both.

Let's just chalk it up to drunken stupidity and agree that we're both better as friends.

But, you know, don't expect me to apologize for the sex or anything, because I'm pretty sure you enjoyed that.

That was also drunken stupidity.

No problem.

But you have to promise me one thing.

Okay.

No masturbating until I say so.

What?

I'll tell you when to cum.

You're kidding.

If you think my books excite you, imagine how intense the real thing could be.

I know how we can get the evidence.

Dude, it's genius.

It's messed up.

Hell, Scarlet asked you to model for her.

You're just doing what she wants.

Yeah, but I don't want to do it.

She won't suspect anything.

Just get her to start talking to you.

Tell her how much you dig her artwork, how creative and talented she is, and then, boom, ask her if she's leaving her husband.

Okay, this is so not subtle.

Well, then, figure out what you're going to say, because I booked you an appointment on Thursday.

You're kidding me.

Nope.

Spank me five times.

Why?

You should really read about it.

I don't need to read about it.

I'll do whatever you want. Just give me your ass, and tell me what happened with Scarlet.

Start talking.

Okay. So she cares about you a lot.

Really? How?

Spank me.

One.
