Hey again! This is a little intimate piece; I love doing my family's hair, but it feels different when you're doing it for a significant other. As usual, let me know what you think!

"Yo girl... you got a pen? Cuz I'm tryina give you my John HanCOCK if you know what I mean."
"Ishy I will throttle you, come sit your goofy ass down."
"Aiight," he grins. I open my legs and he gets comfortable on the floor between them.
He's got water dripping onto his beater so I press the towel more firmly around his neck, and he pushes his broad shoulders back against the give of my thighs.
"What are we watching today?" Probably The Office. I don't even know why I asked.
"The usual." He shakes his head, sending droplets across my legs and feet, and I watch him scroll through the seasons for his favorite episode.
Looking at the dip in the nape of his neck, just visible underneath the tiny curls brushing his shoulders, I get a little hot. I mentally shake myself and get to work.
"Ishy, you want these curly?" I'm three rows deep into twisting his hair, and I need to start braiding the twists up if he wants them krinkly in the morning.
He's absent-mindedly twirling the drawstring on his sweatpants. "Yeah, that'd be cool," he says, shifting and dislodging his towel from one shoulder. I'm captivated by it: little brown freckles dusted over smooth skin. I want to bite it.
"I'm halfway through, you want a break?" We've been through another episode and a half of The Office and my butt hurts from sitting on this stool.
"Yeah, I'mma go get a beer, you want one?" Ishy's ass is thick as fuck; he'd be comfortable sitting on broken glass. I think about biting that too, as I wipe my hands on the towel.
"Nah, I'm good." I let my eyes linger on his uncovered torso, little curlicues of dark hair sprinkled all over his chest and down his stomach. "I'mma move to the bed and put some pillows down for you to sit on, because I'm about to fall apart on this chair."
"Damn girl, why you watching me like you want a piece of me?" He pretends to cover his body with his arms and half-turns away from me in mock disgrace.
I chuckle, still hot and getting hotter. "I'm tryina get your hair done but you lookin all fine for no reason over there. When I finish I wanna jump you."
His eyes light up. "Aw shit, my baby gonna sit on this-" I roll my eyes, trying not to match his kilowatt smile. "John HanCOCK!!"
"Go ahead and do whatever you gotta do, I'm not tryina be here all day."
"Nah, come here for a second." He's got his hands out, a smirk on his lips, and a plan in his eyes, with the crown of his hair still undone and damp on top of his head.
"We ain't never gonna get your head done if I come over there Ishy, go get your beer and come on back." I stand up and shake the pins and needles out of my legs.
He creeps over to me and hugs me from behind while I'm grabbing pillows from the recliner next to the bed. "Shoot, Fay, I'm tryina get your head done."
He runs his hands up and down my sides and over my breasts while I laugh into his mouth, but after a moment of giggling I go silent as he trails his hand down to cup my mound. I lean back against him, neck starting to strain from craning to meet his lips. He grips me firmer and strokes his index finger against me, and I rock into his hand.
"Go on, Ishmael, before I leave you looking like that." As much as I want to push him back into the bed not two feet from us, we only have two The Office episodes-worth of hair left to get through.
