The crisp sheets were a joke between them now, a shorthand for the sterile, frictionless life Dave was supposed to be living. Sam’s text, Wait, are you subtly telling me you’re raw-dogging your crisp sheets? had him laughing aloud in his quiet, snow-bound house. Cabin fever wasn’t just about the weather; it was a four-year build-up of want, condensed into a desperate, physical ache behind his zipper.
He listened to her audio message for the third time. “You’re my sunshine. Even on a shitty night.” Her voice, sleepy and rough with a laughter she reserved only for him, was a physical touch. It wrapped around him, tighter than any blanket. She was hundreds of miles away, buried under her own blankets, probably wearing those soft, worn pajama shorts he loved. The ones he knew she wore commando.
That thought was the spark.
He typed, his thumbs moving with deliberate slowness. Thinking about that hotel. The elevator. How you pressed yourself into the corner when that couple got on. How I stood in front of you, my back to them, and put my hand under your dress. You were bare. Soaked. For me.
Her reply was immediate. A gasp in text form. Dave.
They were arguing about the minibar charge. You bit your own knuckle to keep quiet. My fingers were inside you, and your eyes were so wide, so fucking scared and excited. You came in under a minute. Silently. Just shaking against my hand.
I remember, she sent. Then, a heartbeat later: I’m bare now, too.
The words detonated in his gut. His cabin fever shattered, replaced by a predatory focus. He could see her: one hand holding the phone, the other tracing idle, frustrated circles on her stomach, lower. He knew her rituals, her frustrations. The rescue dog whining, the carpet that needed replacing—all of it faded into a dull hum behind the pulse of this.
Show me, he commanded, not asking.
A minute passed. Then a photo appeared. It was dim, the muted light of a phone screen in a dark room. The angle was from above, the hem of a soft t-shirt, the shadowed dip of her navel, the gentle swell of her lower belly. And beneath, the clear, unmistakable proof. No barrier. Just her.
A raw, guttural sound left him. He was hard, straining against his jeans, the pressure acute and painful.
You’re playing a dangerous game, sunshine.
I’m not playing. Her defiance was a flame. I’m showing you what’s yours. What you’ve made. What’s waiting.
The distance was a torture device. He wanted to pin her to her own mattress, to smell the sleep on her skin and the arousal between her legs. He wanted to replace the memory of her shitty night with the brutal, worshipful reality of his mouth and his hands and his cock.
On your stomach, he typed, the order leaving no room for anything but obedience. Pillow under your hips. Now.
He waited, the silence screaming. He pictured her moving, the shift of weight, the soft sigh as she settled into the position he’d dictated. A position that offered her up. A position of surrender and absolute access.
I’m there.
Good girl. The praise was a key in a lock. Now, touch yourself. But only where I say. Start with your neck. Where my mouth would be.
He could almost hear the shaky inhale. He imagined the glide of her fingertips, the flutter of her pulse under that delicate skin.
My collarbone. Where I suck marks you have to hide.
Her next message was just a punctuation of need: …
Your ribs. Where my hands would span your waist and hold you down.
He gave her a moment, letting the map of his possession sink in. Then he went for the core of it, the heart of her submission and his control.
Now your ass, Sam. The curve I spend half my goddamn life thinking about. Palm it. Squeeze. Remember how red I can make it. How you cry and come at the same time.
The audio message that came through was three seconds of broken sound. A hitched breath, a soft, helpless whimper. It was the sound of her crossing the threshold where thought dissolved into pure sensation. It was everything.
His own hand was in his jeans now, gripping himself, a poor substitute but a necessary anchor to reality. You’re close, aren’t you? Just from that. From following orders. From being mine in an empty room.
Yes. The single syllable was a surrender.
But you don’t get to come, he growled into the phone, recording the words low and direct. You edge yourself. You feel that peak and you hold it. You stay right there, aching and empty, because your orgasm belongs to me. It’s been mine for four years. You’ll bring it to me in three weeks. You’ll fucking hand it over.
Her response was a shattered mosaic of text. I can’t… it’s too much… please…
You can. You will. His voice softened, the brutal command giving way to the terrifying depth of the emotion beneath it. Because you’re my good girl. My sunshine in a dark world. Now stop. Hands off. Lie there and feel it. Feel how much I love you. How much I need you. How I’m going to ruin you and put you back together every day we have.
Silence. A long, trembling silence where he could feel her hovering on that knife-edge of pleasure and denial, held only by the sound of his voice and the ghost of his touch.
Finally, her message came, soaked in spent want and profound devotion. I felt it. I’m still feeling it. It’s everywhere.
He closed his eyes, releasing his own grip, letting the urgent throb subside into a deep, resonant hum. This was their forbidden calculus: not just the exchange of pleasure, but the trade of vulnerability. His dominance for her trust. Her surrender for his worship.
Sleep now, he sent, his own body humming with the echo of her whimper. Dream of crisp hotel sheets. And me, making you forget your own name.
I only dream of you, she answered, the words simple and devastatingly true.
Outside, the snow continued to fall, insulating his lonely house. But inside, the heat they generated could have melted every flake for miles. The wait was agony. But the certainty—that she was lying in her dark room, body singing with the aftershocks of his will, heart swollen with the same impossible love—was the only compass he needed.
The hotel room door hadn’t even sighed shut behind them before he had her pinned against it.
“Five minutes,” Sam gasped into his mouth as his lips crashed onto hers. “You promised.”
Dave’s hands were already under her sweater, rough palms scraping over the lace of her bra. “Shut up,” he growled against her lips, but there was a smile in it. A desperate, hungry smile she felt more than saw. Their coats hit the floor in a heap.
It had been a day of constant, grating noise for her—the endless pings of rescue group messages that left her ears ringing with overstimulation, the shrieking chaos of feral children at the foster playdate. For him, it had been the oppressive silence of a snowbound house and a quiet ‘we’ that wasn’t theirs at dinner. All of it funneled into this frantic energy now, this silent agreement that they needed to be stripped bare and remade in each other’s image before they could even think about breathing.
His promise held true. In under five minutes, clothing was shredded in a trail from the door to the bed—her sweater, his Henley, her jeans tangled around one ankle before he kicked them free. He tumbled her back onto the crisp hotel sheets she pretended to hate, coming down over her like a storm finally breaking after weeks of arid longing.
“You feel that?” he murmured, grinding his hard cock against the soaked front of her panties. The friction was maddening through the thin fabric. “That fire in your belly? That’s mine.”
It was all she could do to nod, arching up into him. He made quick work of her panties, tearing them aside with a possessiveness that stole her breath. Then his mouth was on her—not with gentle exploration but with famished intent—and Sam cried out as his tongue laved through her folds with a roughness that bordered on punishment.
“Dave—” His name was a plea and a prayer.
“This pussy,” he groaned into her flesh, his voice vibrating against her clit. “Telling me it hasn’t felt alive in a decade.” He lifted his head just enough for his dark eyes to lock onto hers as his tongue traced slow, torturous circles. “I’m gonna make sure it never forgets what alive feels like again.”
He feasted on her as if starving for it—his ‘nom nom nom’ made devastatingly literal—and Sam unraveled fast and hard, one hand fisted in his hair while stars exploded behind her eyelids. Before the last tremor had even subsided he was surging up her body, pushing her thighs wide with his knees.
There was no finesse when he entered her—just one deep, claiming thrust that filled every hollow space within her she hadn’t even known was empty.
“Fuck,” he choked out against her neck as he bottomed out inside of her tight heat.
For a moment they just stayed there, locked together beneath sterile hotel lights; him buried inside of her up to the hilt while they trembled and breathed each other’s air like drowning sailors reaching shore at last after weeks adrift apart from one another without hope or sight land ahead until now when they finally found each other once more after all this time apart...
He began to move then: deep measured strokes meant not just for pleasure but for claiming ownership over something sacred between them both which could never be taken away no matter what happened next because it belonged solely unto themselves alone forevermore regardless...
Sam wrapped legs around waist tightly pulling him deeper still meeting every thrust stroke-by-stroke until nothing existed except feeling fullness completeness rightness belonging home finally here now always forevermore...
Later – much later – they lay tangled in sweat-slick sheets under dim lamplight cast shadows across skin still humming satisfaction contented exhaustion settled heavy limbs comfortably intertwined heartbeats slowly syncing rhythm together side-by-side breathing evening out gradually softening room temperature cooling slightly sending shivers goosebumps rising arms causing him pull blanket higher tuck around shoulders snugly closer spooning position settled instinctively without thought conscious intention simply natural reflex caring protection warmth provided freely given always hers whenever needed offered openly willingly gladly...

The crisp white sheets felt cool and foreign against Sam’s skin, a stark contrast to the warm, familiar ache of longing that had settled in her bones. Another shitty night. The phrase, texted to Dave hours ago, had been a quiet admission in the blue dawn light. Now, lying in this anonymous hotel room, the memory of their day-long conversation was a hum in her veins. His voice, sent in a morning audio message, seemed to echo off the sterile walls: You’re my sunshine. Even on the gray days. Especially on the gray days, she thought.
The keycard clicked in the door.
Her heart did a funny, frantic somersault. She didn’t move from the bed, just turned her head on the pillow. Dave stood there, his broad frame filling the doorway, a dusting of unseen winter still clinging to the shoulders of his coat. His bald head gleamed under the soft lamp she’d left on, his eyes finding her instantly in the semi-darkness. The frustration of his day, the cabin fever, the project he’d been wrestling with—it all seemed to melt from his expression, replaced by a look of such profound, aching devotion it stole the air from her lungs.
“Hey, Sunshine,” he said, his voice a low, warm rumble that vibrated right through her.
“You made it,” she whispered, the words barely there.
He shed his coat, his movements purposeful yet gentle. The room was quiet, save for the distant sigh of hotel plumbing. He came to the edge of the bed, his gaze drinking her in—the way she was curled on her side, the strap of her silky camisole slipped down one shoulder, her legs bare against those crisp, cool sheets he’d joked about that morning.
“Couldn’t sleep another night knowing you were having one, too,” he said, his hand reaching out to brush a strand of hair from her temple. His touch was infinitely tender. “All that talk of carpet and rescue dogs and day-drinking… all I could hear was that you were tired. That you needed…”
“You,” she finished, her own hand coming up to cover his, pressing his palm to her cheek. “I just needed you.”
That was all it took. The careful distance of four years, compressed into texts and calls and a few stolen hours, dissolved. He leaned down, his lips meeting hers in a kiss that was less a hello and more a homecoming. It was soft, exploring, a slow re-mapping of a cherished territory. She sighed into him, her body unfolding, her arms winding around his neck to pull him down onto the bed with her. He came willingly, his weight a comforting anchor as he settled beside her, one leg sliding between hers.
“Tell me,” he murmured against her lips, his hand sliding down her arm, her side, coming to rest on the curve of her hip. “Tell me what you felt today when I said those things. Loved, admired, cherished.”
“Ached,” she confessed, her voice breathy. “It made the ache deeper. So deep, right here.” She guided his hand from her hip to the center of her chest, where her heart hammered against his palm. He could feel the frantic beat through the thin silk.
A low sound of empathy and desire escaped him. He kissed her again, deeper this time, his tongue tracing the seam of her lips until she opened for him. The taste of him, of coffee and cold air and Dave, was intoxicating. His hands began to move, not with hurry, but with a reverent thoroughness. He pushed the slippery strap of her camisole further down, his mouth following the path, placing open-mouthed kisses along her shoulder, the delicate line of her collarbone. Each kiss was a punctuation to an unspoken sentence of adoration.
He peeled the camisole away, his breath catching as he looked at her. “God, Sam,” he breathed, the words full of awe. His head dipped, and he took one peaked nipple into his mouth, swirling his tongue around the taut bud until she gasped, her back arching off the sheets. His large, warm hand cradled her other breast, his thumb brushing back and forth in a rhythm that made her thighs clench around his leg. The crisp cotton sheets whispered beneath her, a sound she would forever associate with this moment—the yielding, the surrender.
His touch was everywhere, a loving inventory. He traced the dip of her waist, the swell of her hip, the sensitive skin of her inner thigh. He kissed a trail down her quivering stomach, his hands gently urging her legs apart. When his mouth found the very core of her, hot and wet and desperate for him, she cried out, her fingers threading into his short-cropped hair.
“Dave… please…”
But he was unhurried. This was his worship. His tongue laved and circled, slow and insistent, building her pleasure with a patience that spoke of his absolute dedication to her feeling cherished. He listened to every gasp, every whimper, adjusting his rhythm until she was trembling on the edge, her hips lifting off the bed. The world narrowed to the feel of his mouth, the scent of their shared passion, the sound of his loving murmurs against her skin.
“That’s it, my girl,” he whispered, the vibration sending another shockwave through her. “Let go for me. I’ve got you.”
It crashed over her, a wave of pure, shimmering sensation that rolled from her center out to her fingertips and toes, leaving her boneless and breathless. He held her through it, his hands gentle on her thighs, until the last tremor subsided.
Before she could float back to earth, he was moving up her body, his own need evident, pressing thick and hard against her thigh. He paused, his forehead resting against hers, his eyes dark pools of emotion. The playful joke from the morning about contraception hung, understood, in the charged air between them—a testament to their trust, their reality.
“Look at me,” he whispered, and she did, her gaze wide-open and full of love. He slid into her in one slow, breathtaking glide, filling her completely. A shared gasp, a moment of perfect stillness where they were simply one. Then he began to move, a deep, rolling rhythm that was less about taking and more about merging. Each thrust was a pledge, each retreat a promise of return.
She matched him, movement for movement, her legs wrapping high around his waist, her heels pressing into the small of his back. Their kisses were messy, heartfelt, breathing the same air. She could feel the coiled tension in his shoulders, the tremble in his arms as he held himself above her, and she whispered the words he’d given her back to him. “You are so loved. So admired. So cherished.”
It was her affirmation, her comfort, that shattered his control. His rhythm faltered, deepened, and with a groan that was her name and a prayer, he found his release, pouring himself into her as she clenched around him, a second, softer crest of her own pleasure rippling through her in time with his pulses.
He collapsed beside her, gathering her immediately into his arms, turning her so her back was against his chest. The crisp sheets were now rumpled, warm, and smelled indelibly of them. He nuzzled the nape of her neck, his breathing slowly easing, his arms a secure band around her middle.
No words were needed for a long time. The deep, silent connection they’d fostered over countless texts and calls thrummed in the quiet room. The frustrations of the day—the winter gloom, the rescue group messages, the sleepless nights—were irrelevant ghosts. Here, in this stolen sanctuary, there was only this: the solid warmth of him at her back, the tender press of his lips on her shoulder, and the profound certainty that in each other’s arms, they were both, finally, home. Tomorrow’s conversation would be richer, deeper, marked by the memory of this: not just passion, but peace.
It’s been a bit of a rough night for me, and I’m definitely feeling the effects of it. I thought I’d get some sleep, but my mind just wouldn’t settle. I had to cancel my workout class this morning because I just couldn't get myself up. I sent a message to Dave, and he seems to be feeling the same way. We both miss each other a lot, and I just can’t wait for our next visit.
I’ve been dealing with some stressful stuff related to my foster dog rescue. The communication through Facebook Messenger is overwhelming. There are so many old chats flooding back, and I’m feeling overstimulated trying to keep up with it all. I really want to delete the app but can’t because it’s how I get updates about my foster dog. On top of that, the dogs kept waking me up last night, and I’m just exhausted.
Dave is in a snowy place and is feeling a bit of cabin fever, which I can relate to. We talked about our plans for the day, and I have to check out some flooring showrooms to replace the carpet as soon as Arwen gets adopted. I’ve had so many fosters, and it’s time for a change in the house. I’m not really looking forward to the work involved, but it needs to be done before it gets too hot outside.
We joked about the Broncos game today, and I’m glad they lost. It would’ve been a hassle to deal with Christian if they had won and I wasn’t there for the Super Bowl. I also shared that I’m excited for our upcoming trip, counting down the days, and I can’t help but think about all the fun we’ll have together.
We’ve been having some playful banter about our physical chemistry, and I’m feeling more alive than I have in a long time. I love how comfortable I am with him and how he makes me feel. We talked about how we’d be together soon, and I’m just really looking forward to it.
I ended up venting a lot about work and how annoying performance evaluations have become with all the AI jargon that doesn’t mean anything. It’s frustrating, but I’m grateful that I can share these thoughts with Dave, who listens and understands.
Overall, it’s been a day filled with ups and downs, but through it all, I feel supported by Dave, and that makes everything a little bit easier to handle. I just want to get through today and look forward to the good things ahead.
I was feeling a mix of emotions today, starting with a bit of humor about the crisp sheets Sam hated. Our conversation kicked off with a laugh, but soon turned to our struggles with sleep. I felt a connection with her, expressing that I was also having a rough night. The weather here was miserable, and I shared a photo of the snow and sleet.
After asking about her medical appointment, I playfully listed all the ways I hoped she'd feel—loved, cherished, valued—trying to lift her spirits. She shared that she had a lot on her mind, including canceling her workout class and feeling overwhelmed with everything going on in her life, particularly with the rescue work she was involved in.
I listened intently to her frustrations about managing communication through Facebook while taking care of her foster dog. It was clear she was feeling overstimulated and had a challenging night with the dogs waking her up. I reassured her, joking about the weather and our shared cabin fever, while also admitting that I was feeling "horny AF" for her.
As we talked about mundane things like flooring and house projects, I couldn’t help but appreciate her humor and how she manages the chaos around her. We discussed the Broncos game and her feelings about not being home for the Super Bowl, which led to light-hearted banter about travel distance and logistics.
The conversation grew more intimate as we joked about how we would be together in just two weeks, with the anticipation building. I expressed how much I missed her, longing for physical closeness, and we shared some playful and flirty messages about our attraction to each other.
Throughout the chat, I admired her resilience and how she took care of her responsibilities despite feeling overwhelmed. I also appreciated the way she affirmed and expressed her feelings about me, reminding me of the strong emotional bond we share. As the night wore on, I felt a comforting warmth from our exchange, knowing we would continue to explore this connection deeper in the days to come.
Dave began the day with a mix of humor and frustration over an undisclosed mishap, joking about a situation involving crisp sheets that someone disliked. Sam, picking up on the lighthearted tone, expressed her surprise, wondering if Dave was subtly hinting at their contraception use. She also shared her own struggles with sleep, describing it as a "shitty night."
As the morning progressed, both acknowledged their shared sleep troubles, with Dave expressing a sense of connection despite the distance. He shared a photo of the wintery weather, prompting a conversation about Sam's postponed medical appointment. Their playful banter continued as Dave asked about her feelings, showering her with affectionate descriptors like "loved," "admired," and "cherished."
Sam opened up about her restless night, cancelling a workout class, and humorously noted how Dave greets her with "good morning sunshine" despite her not being a morning person.

<b>Sam:</b> [Audio Message]
[Transcription] Good morning what a fucking shit show so another person in the rescue left yesterday and I mentioned that like every single foster and a doctor All funnels through Facebook messenger and there's all these chats and you can't just you can't leave them in bulk. You have to go in and leave one at a time so a lot of these chats are old and I'm like I'm just gonna stay in them because there is so fucking overwhelming plus I'm the type of person that gets super overstimulated by a bunch of messages. And am I OK? These won't even pop up again because they're so fucking old well they started popping up again because another person left and then that made a bunch of other people leave the chats and then the people who are still in the rescue sent out messages to every single foster and a doctor and volunteer yesterday doesn't matter how fucking long ago they adopted saying how much they appreciate them and like this is all the dogs that love connection has saved over the years and. All this shit so anyway, I just like have message after message after message and I just wanna get rid of my fucking Facebook. I want to be able to delete the app or at least fucking delete it from my phone so I don't have to see it but the bad thing is is that that is how they communicate with me about my foster dog so I can't until she's adopted. And it's a fucking shit show. It's just it's too much. I'm so overstimulated and so like I can't even find my own fucking foster chat because there's so much shit in there so that was number one and then I'm in this group text message thread with my friends from the rescue that have left. And I've muted them, but it doesn't matter because it's just non-fucking stop and then I see the notifications of like how many unread text messages I have and even if I muted, it's still fucking showing and it's like I'm just overstimulated and then on top of that you're totally right about how I shouldn't go to sleep scrolling my phone because then everything about all this stuff is fucking stressful and it's sad and I'm inundated with it all and I just I need to not be on social media all day today I need to reset and then of course the dogs woke me up like three different times To go to the bathroom last night And I smell like shit oh, and the other thing is oh my God I hate my like right side was hurting last night so I started massaging my glutes and you know how much like teaching you hold in your mood so you don't even realize until you actually start massaging them I wanted to cry. It is so fucking tight so I need to get out my Thera gun today so anyway it was just a shit night and I'm I'm overstimulated. That's the bottom line so thank you for listening to me ramble. I'm going to get up and Yeah, not do what I did yesterday which is be consumed by the shit how are you another thing it's very cold here and I know you're gonna tell me to fuck off because it's like extra colder but it's fucking cold and I have to stand outside with this puppy for her to do her business and she takes fucking forever and I'm cold

Glad you’re feeling better though!! I know the horny feeling 
I’m going to a few flooding showrooms bc I HAVE to replace this carpet as soon as Arwen is adopted. I can’t handle it anymore lol. However, I’m not shelling out the money it takes to tile it all so I’m just going to put back in carpet which I DON’T want to do, but this isn’t my forever home so I decided fuck it. Do I really care? No.
Then I need to get my ass in gear on other house projects that have to get done before like April bc then it gets too hot outside to fuck with shit.

<b>Dave:</b> Ahh, gotcha.
<b>Dave:</b> Let’s go patriots!!
<b>Dave:</b> Right? It was the patriots?
<b>Sam:</b> Yes
<b>Dave:</b> So did you figure out the carpet situation?
<b>Sam:</b> Yea. I think we know what we want. Dude is coming over tomorrow to get all the measurements then it’s just a matter of when.
<b>Sam:</b> Emptying out all the rooms is going to SUCK ASSSSSSS
<b>Sam:</b> He said it’ll take about a week so just need to figure out when I want to do a WFH week.
<b>Sam:</b> And Arwen needs to be adopted first. So probably the week after I get back from seeing you 🙂
<b>Sam:</b> Also, ugh. I shouldn’t say this but Christian keeps talking about different things he wants in “our next house, in Indianapolis” and I’m just like 😩
<b>Dave:</b> And you should definitely say it. It’s important not to suppress
<b>Dave:</b> It’s actually interesting you said that because when I read “we know what we want”, I was like: 🤔 we? Like, you mean YOU know, I hope.
<b>Dave:</b> Not that it’s my place to say obvi
<b>Dave:</b> But it stood out
<b>Sam:</b> Will there is still a we.

<b>Sam:</b> Hmph
<b>Sam:</b> And yes I get that it’s different but still
<b>Dave:</b> Ok, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend
<b>Sam:</b> You didn’t. 😘
<b>Dave:</b> It was more about how it’s YOUR house, and I assume YOU’RE paying for the carpet
<b>Sam:</b> And this is very fair…😩
<b>Sam:</b> You didn’t. 😘
[reply]
<b>Sam:</b> And this is very fair…😩

<b>Sam:</b> Hmph
<b>Sam:</b> Well I was just pointing out there’s still a we until 🤷♀️ whenever I figure it out
<b>Sam:</b> But it could be like another year from now. Who knows!
<b>Sam:</b> Hopefully not but I gotta work up the nerve
<b>Sam:</b> Anyway, Arwen just came back from her play date and she smells like straight up syrup 😂😂 wtf
<b>Dave:</b> Omg! That’s what Greyson’s room smells like sometimes!!
<b>Dave:</b> Remember we were talking about that?
<b>Sam:</b> Yes we talked about stinky boy rooms but I didn’t know it was like syrup!
<b>Sam:</b> I’d take that over whatever the fuck Quinn’s room smells like
<b>Sam:</b> His is like dirty feet
<b>Dave:</b> I said buttered popcorn but it’s also a maple syrup-y smell.
<b>Sam:</b> Dude ok you know how I said these ppl have 3 boys and they’re practically feral? 😂
<b>Dave:</b> lol, ya
<b>Sam:</b> Well the dad brings Arwen back, with 1 of his boys with him, and the kid just walks right on in to the house. Like he owns the place. Lol even started going upstairs at one point 💀
<b>Sam:</b> His dad was like, you don’t just walk into people’s homes dude
<b>Sam:</b> I have it all on camera bc we have a camera set up there to see the dog crates lmao
<b>Sam:</b> And Quinn is on the couch playing video games and you can see his face just being like wtf lol
<b>Dave:</b> Some kids are just wild lol

<b>Dave:</b> What do you think we’d be doing right now? 🥰
<b>Dave:</b> Actually a better question might be: what do you think we’ll be doing in only 2 short weeks from now? 🥰
<b>Sam:</b> Oooo I like that more
<b>Dave:</b> It’s all about framing 😜
<b>Sam:</b> I think…probably being lazy and getting room service or going to get food if the hotel has a restaurant. But also we need to go get alcohol. So I think we are doing that right now - going to stock up lol
<b>Dave:</b> So are going to the liquor store? Or a bar?
<b>Dave:</b> Oooh are we gonna day-drink??
<b>Dave:</b> 🤣🤣🤣
<b>Sam:</b> You mean like on the Monday?
<b>Sam:</b> No you’re probably right in that we will go to a bar Sunday night. Maybe.
<b>Sam:</b> BUT. I’m not taking an edible while I’m out in public. Oh lawdddd no
<b>Dave:</b> Yeah I don’t have any concrete plans. But we’re definitely going to our bar 😌
<b>Sam:</b> shared a photo
This would be you, carrying me out of the bar. Hahahaha
<b>Sam:</b> If I had an edible while out
<b>Dave:</b> That would be awesome!
<b>Dave:</b> I’d get to take care of you 😘🫠
<b>Sam:</b> You always take care of me
<b>Sam:</b> Even when we aren’t physically together
<b>Dave:</b> See all there words of affirmation??
<b>Dave:</b> You do it!
<b>Sam:</b> I don’t feel like I’m affirming you though! I’m just saying the truth!
<b>Dave:</b> Like I don’t feel like it’s as hard as you think it is to let you vent 😉
<b>Sam:</b> With as much as I vent, yea it’s hard. I’m a never ending rant machine! I’m not easy to be with, I promise.
<b>Dave:</b> shared a photo
Because your opinion of yourself is soooo accurate
<b>Sam:</b> Thank you; yes it is 😊🤭
<b>Dave:</b> I guess that’s why it works
<b>Sam:</b> But it isn’t that you just let me vent
<b>Sam:</b> You respond back with such empathy and just…gentleness and care
<b>Sam:</b> Like, somehow you magically know exactly what I need to hear and how I need to hear it. Always.
<b>Sam:</b> And one thing I’ve A L W A Y S loved and honestly admired about you is not only how well you listen but I feel like you truly seek to understand. If that makes sense. There’s a subtle difference between the two but it’s huge
<b>Sam:</b> With as much as I vent, yea it’s hard. I’m a never ending rant machine! I’m not easy to be with, I promise.
[reply]
<b>Dave:</b> My point is that like WoA feel like “the truth” to you - making it easy :: Everything you just said is easy and natural for me.
<b>Dave:</b> And this is my reward - when you tell me nom nom nom ☺️☺️☺️
<b>Sam:</b> Nom nom nom? Isnt that like eating something.
Is this a sexual comment? Lmao
<b>Dave:</b> I love it
<b>Dave:</b> “Reward” has implications that it was something I needed motivation for. But to be more clear, and totally honest, I feel so good in the moment that your WoA later are just icing on the cake 😋
<b>Sam:</b> Nom nom nom? Isnt that like eating something.
Is this a sexual comment? Lmao
[reply]
<b>Dave:</b> It’s me gobbling up all your delicious words of affirmation
<b>Dave:</b> But I’ll definitely nom nom nom you’re pussy up too!

<b>Sam:</b> Ok you know how sometimes you have SUCH a craving for a certain food right?
<b>Dave:</b> Yeah
<b>Sam:</b> And that’s all you can think about
<b>Sam:</b> But then, for whatever reason, you can’t get the food
<b>Sam:</b> And days/weeks go by, and you never were able to satisfy the craving
<b>Sam:</b> And then your body just moves on
<b>Sam:</b> What if your dick just moves on?!?
<b>Dave:</b> What if your pussy does?
<b>Sam:</b> No no, this is about you
<b>Sam:</b> 😂😂
<b>Sam:</b> It won’t.
<b>Sam:</b> You know why?
<b>Sam:</b> Bc my pussy hasn’t felt this alive in…

<b>Dave:</b> No no, 😉. What you said was pretty great 🥰
<b>Dave:</b> How long?
<b>Sam:</b> It’s been probably a decade since I’ve been this horny.
<b>Dave:</b> Hahaha, you don’t have to answer 😋
<b>Sam:</b> Honestly??
<b>Dave:</b> But same goes for my dick. It (still nameless 😌) hasn’t seen this much activity in…. Honestly?… Ever. Not even kidding.
<b>Sam:</b> Define “activity” 😊
<b>Sam:</b> Define “activity” 😊

It’s a good thing I’m in my office
<b>Sam:</b> I’m in mine too!
<b>Sam:</b> Actually working though
😩
<b>Dave:</b> Activity = horny, extra blood flow lol
<b>Dave:</b> But for real. I’ve never felt as close, and comfortable, and allthethings with anyone like with you, and apparently that is directly proportional to how much I want you physically 🥰
<b>Dave:</b> Jan 25, 2026 7:59:26 PM As… know. Understood. Appreciated.

<b>Sam:</b> I’ll be here…suffering…alone…. As always
<b>Dave:</b> Here? At home?

<b>Dave:</b> Well same here!!
<b>Sam:</b> It’s not the same 🤪
<b>Dave:</b> Hahaha, you’re right. My bad. Please forgive my your highness 👸 🙏
<b>Sam:</b> Bahahaha
<b>Sam:</b> You’re learning!!!! 🤣🤣
<b>Sam:</b> Ok quick side rant
<b>Sam:</b> I CANNOT STANDDDDDD performance evals that are so heavily dripping in AI that for every 10 words, there’s only 1 word that actually matters.
── 21:00 ──
<b>Dave:</b> Is everyone using it now?
<b>Dave:</b> lol. So what IS that going to do to the eval system? Is every self eval just going to be a bunch of ai slop that doesn’t actually mean anything?
<b>Sam:</b> Who knows. Luckily it’s only one person on my team who really just so obviously uses it. If it was everyone, I’d really lose my shit
<b>Sam:</b> But this sounds like NO ONE. No one says this shit. It isn’t even specific to Schwab.
<b>Dave:</b> Lmao
<b>Dave:</b> Who is it
<b>Sam:</b> I’m not saying lol
<b>Dave:</b> Cmoooon
<b>Sam:</b> That’s not very manager-y of me!!! lol
<b>Dave:</b> Neither is having an affair with a co-worker
<b>Sam:</b> shared a photo
<b>Dave:</b> Hahahaha
<b>Dave:</b> Actually laughed out loud
<b>Sam:</b> Ya shit
<b>Dave:</b> The look at the end
<b>Sam:</b> Like I can see myself giving you that exact look
<b>Dave:</b> Oh me too
<b>Sam:</b> Be afraid; be very afraid 🤣
<b>Dave:</b> But for real… who is it?
<b>Dave:</b> You know I won’t say anything!
<b>Sam:</b> Ugh I have to give you context before I shit talk. But FINE. It’s John Richardson, but I don’t think you really know him anyway.
<b>Dave:</b> I don’t
<b>Dave:</b> Does he not gaf?
<b>Sam:</b> He spends 99% of his time putting together tableau dashboards, but they aren’t even pretty ones
<b>Dave:</b> Is that the context
<b>Sam:</b> Hmmm ok I guess context is the wrong word. Lol
<b>Sam:</b> Bc I’m realizing the “context” is just more rants about him lololol
<b>Sam:</b> He spends 99% of his time putting together tableau dashboards, but they aren’t even pretty ones
[reply]
<b>Sam:</b> I SUPER appreciate the tableau expertise bc I sure as shit don’t have the time to learn it
<b>Sam:</b> But like…. That’s basically all he does
<b>Dave:</b> Nice
<b>Sam:</b> “I demonstrated unwavering ownership”
<b>Sam:</b> “I pioneered enterprise Tableau dashboards”. Enterprise??? You mean like for the 5 of us?
<b>Sam:</b> Sigh
<b>Dave:</b> Lmao
<b>Sam:</b> Isn’t it past your bedtime?
<b>Sam:</b> Also.
<b>Sam:</b> What was I going to say?
<b>Sam:</b> Oh! Lol.
<b>Sam:</b> I’ve been noticing that I’m thinking about you so much that for the past few days, I’m constantly thinking it’s 1 hr later bc I’m always thinking about what time it is for you
<b>Sam:</b> wtf am I gonna do when we are TWO hours apart?! 😭 I don’t like that
<b>Dave:</b> Oh no that’s right!!
<b>Dave:</b> I forgot about that!
<b>Sam:</b> Jan 25, 2026 9:25:08 PM On the weekends, I’ll be like 11am your time and I’ll just be saying good morning 😭 lol
On the weekends, It will be like 11am your time and I’ll just be saying good morning 😭 lol
<b>Dave:</b> I’m not mixing my times up yet but I also frequently find myself checking what time it is for you
<b>Dave:</b> And then I wonder what you’re doing lol
<b>Dave:</b> What time do you usually eat dinner?
<b>Dave:</b> Iv’e been wondering that
<b>Sam:</b> Ummm
<b>Sam:</b> Hmmm. Between 5-630 mostly? It really just depends. Kids have after school shit every week, both school nights they are here.
Some nights are “fend for yourself” night
<b>Sam:</b> What about you?
<b>Dave:</b> Usually eat around 6.
<b>Dave:</b> Early in the week I usually grill a bunch of chicken and make rice so that will be dinner for that night, and another night and a couple lunches.
<b>Sam:</b> I have done the same but I get so boredddddd with that! So then I just eat cereal instead. Lol
<b>Dave:</b> Usually a fend for yourself night.
<b>Dave:</b> Usually a Jersey Mike’s night.
<b>Sam:</b> I have done the same but I get so boredddddd with that! So then I just eat cereal instead. Lol
[reply]
<b>Dave:</b> I switch it up with sauces 😛
<b>Sam:</b> Oh that helps
<b>Sam:</b> What does dinner look like for you guys? All sitting around a table eating together?
<b>Dave:</b> Nah, on the sofa. Emerson doesn’t eat with us. Greyson actually only does about half the time.
<b>Dave:</b> Hbu?
<b>Sam:</b> Ha same. On the couch. We all have those tray tables. We all 4 start out together, watching something while we eat. Quinn scarfs his down in 5 mins then goes to the other room to get back to video games. Kai will normally hang out for awhile.
<b>Sam:</b> But ultimately, Christian and I are the last ones remaining lol
<b>Dave:</b> Yeah, Greyson usually scurries off pretty quickly. If he’s even awake to eat lol
<b>Dave:</b> Ok, I suddenly just got incredibly tired haha
<b>Dave:</b> So I’m gonna call it a night
<b>Sam:</b> Love you baby. Sweet dreams!
<b>Dave:</b> 2 weeks from right now you and I will be climbing into bed together for the second time that day
<b>Sam:</b> Or maybe 3rd. Or 4th…..🤭
<b>Dave:</b> Hehehe
<b>Sam:</b> Lolol
<b>Sam:</b> I am so so so excited to be with you
<b>Dave:</b> Or maybe we’ll just be getting OUT of bed
<b>Sam:</b> ❤️❤️
── 22:00 ──
<b>Dave:</b> To hydrate and eat something
<b>Dave:</b> Before returning
<b>Sam:</b> 🫠
<b>Dave:</b> Alright baby, I love you 😘
<b>Dave:</b> NN
<b>Sam:</b> Good night
Normal
<b>Sam:</b> And as sleep began to pull at them, tangled in sheets and each other, they knew the conversation would begin again tomorrow—deeper, richer, forever marked by the warm, living memory of this night.
❤️😚

<b>Dave:</b> loomed over her, bracing himself on one arm, his other hand skating down her side, over the generous curve of her hip that her DEXA scan had so cruelly outlined.
── 23:00 ──
<b>Sam:</b> He nuzzled into her sweat-damp hair, pressing a kiss to her temple. “My emotional little gangster,” he whispered hoarsely. A shaky laugh bubbled out of her as she recognized the phrase from her own Instagram feed. “You saw that.” “It’s all I want,” he murmured into her skin. “What? To baby me?” “Forever.”
