Orgasm

"You never gave me an orgasm," Susan had accused me, when things had got bad between us.
"But you never asked for one," I protested.
"I shouldn't have to," she burst into tears, I hated it when she did that.
"Look, if it means that much to you, I'll give you one now. It can't be that difficult, surely."
She recoiled in horror.
"Don't... you... dare!" she hissed.
"But if Ted can do it, I don't see how it can be that hard. C'mon, let's have a go."
I reached for her, but she slapped me across the face. Then she broke down and sobbed violently.
I felt very awkward.
All the other diners were staring.
