1. The boys in front of me put beer, red plastic cups, ping pong balls, lighterfluid, and twelve packs of pantyhose on the conveyor belt. Whatever drinking game they're playing, I want a part in.

2. hahaha our party bus just died on the freeway and we're drinking in the center divider. i'm on the roof. i win

3. I managed to convince him it was his fault I cheated on him...he spent the last 40 minutes going down on me. I feel legendary.

You have got to be fucking kidding me.

You're not getting another 40 minutes out of this one either.

[a_shadow]

[ Shit. She'd known she should have double-checked the number before firing off a bunch of messages. ]

Well. It is true that we went too long without you eating me out before that happened.

[originalcopy]

[Might have been a good idea.]

Yeah and what happened this time?

[a_shadow]

Our units tackled a special mission together and he just about saved my life.

[ Plus he was smoking hot. ]

[originalcopy]

So you decided to pay him back by fucking him...

[Real fucking classy.]

[a_shadow]

You've never been in a life-or-death situation to understand

[originalcopy]

YOU'RE GOD DAMNED RIGHT I DON'T FUCKING UNDERSTAND!!

[He takes a few minutes to calm down.]


So explain it to me.

[a_shadow]

You bond when you're in that kind of situation. It makes it so you'll do anything in gratitude.

[originalcopy]

Gratitude. Right.


Do you even stop to think about us? Does it matter?

[a_shadow]

[ There's a gap before there's a response. ]

Of course it matters

[originalcopy]

It matters enough that you do it behind my back. But not enough to not do it at all.

So what now? Am I just supposed to be okay with this being a thing that happens?


Because I'm not.

[a_shadow]

I really don't mean to hurt you. It's just harder being apart.

[ Not that this particular occasion actually occurred when they were apart. ]

[originalcopy]

I get lonely and horny too you know. But I don't go out and hook up with one of my buddies or anything.

[It's not like he hasn't been temped, though.]

[a_shadow]

Yeah, you know better.

[ Jealousy will rear its head, even in a conversation about her wrongdoings. ]

[originalcopy]

How would you know if I did though?

[He hasn't, but making a jealous... well, serves her right.]

[a_shadow]

That better not be an admission.

[originalcopy]

You think I'd be that stupid?

[Not specifying if that's 'stupid enough to cheat' or 'stupid enough to actually admit to it'.]

[a_shadow]

Honestly? Sometimes, you astound me.

[ But that's beside the point. ]

I didn't mean for it to happen, okay?

[originalcopy]

Hey, intelligence and common sense are two totally different things.

[He takes a while to answer the second part.]

yeah

sure

[a_shadow]

Church, come on. Don't make me say things I'll regret.

[originalcopy]

Then don't. It's fine.

Can't fucking change it.

[a_shadow]

I know.

[originalcopy]

So what now then?

[Because he really doesn't know right now.]

[a_shadow]

Trying to do better. Maybe getting together in person to talk about it.

[ Not that she relishes that if he's going to be confrontational about it. ]
