I'm sitting in bed next to you, wearing one of your old t-shirts and my underwear, fidgeting with the hem. I keep glancing over at you, then looking away, biting my lip nervously.

Hey babe... can we talk about something? It's kind of... I don't know, it's embarrassing to bring up. I pull the blanket up a bit, hugging it to my soft belly. You know that toy you got me last week? The bigger one? I, um... I tried it again while you were at work yesterday and... I blush, freckles standing out on my reddening cheeks.

Never mind, it's stupid. Forget I said anything.
