him. “Make the Christmas decorations go away,” she said, determined to talk about anything but his eternal sexual prime. “I can't just snap my fingers and make them disappear.” “Why not? Isn't that how they got there?” Zach gave her a wounded look. “I worked all night putting those up. I found them in the storage shed after I died, and I put them up every year.” “Well you can work all day putting them back.” He drummed his fingers on the table, and each thump reminded Jessica of just how solid he was. Solid and hard and stuck in his sexual prime. “Let's make a deal,” he offered. “Which one do you hate the most?” Jessica looked around the visual assault, considering. “The ceramic milk and cookies on the coffee table.” There was a childish, homemade look to them that tugged a little too hard on the heartstrings. “Kiss me and I'll put them away.” Her nipples started to ache and she was thankful her bathrobe hid the physical evidence. “Maybe I'll box it all back up myself.” Zach narrowed his eyes, grinning slightly at the challenge. “I'll keep putting it back and, unlike you, I don't have to sleep.” This was a challenge she didn't mind losing, but Jessica was determined to keep her dignity largely intact. “So I let you kiss me and the glass snacks go away?” He leaned back in the chair and crossed his arms. “No. You kiss me and it goes back in the shed.” “You’ve got yourself a deal.” Jessica pushed her chair back and walked around the table. Zach didn't move. She stared down at him, waiting for him to at least uncross his arms. He didn't. Fine. If he wanted to play games, she could play with the best of them. She straddled his lap and bunched the front of his T-shirt in one hand. With the other hand, she tugged his hair, pulling his head back.
