"Jenny is giving you a way out. Just go make him happy."
Jeremy grabbed my hands excitedly and spun me in circles. "Honey! Honey! Let's sleep together!"

As she spoke, she turned on the waterworks.
That was enough for Steven to stop and watch as I was dragged into the room by Jeremy, ignoring my pleading gaze.
