Negotiation
Monday, July 21st, 2008
“So did Jen sort things out with Laurence, then?”
We lay entwined together, wallowing in the afterglow of a particularly vigorous fuck. There were so few precious nights left for us to take full advantage of my empty bedroom and, although we’ll be in WOMAD pretty much instantly after the end of term, we were still squeezing in as much sex as possible. Who knows if we’ll get to see each other through the long weeks of the summer holiday?
“Well, kind of,” I murmured, snuggling against the warmth of his chest. “They’ve agreed that if he catches her doing something really bad, he can’t punish her but he’s allowed to send her to someone else who will.”
“I’m kind of surprised she even agreed to that, to be honest.”
“Well, this was after like several days of negotiation. I think Rosie did a lot of work diplomacy-wise – that girl should so get a job at the UN or something.”
“Yeah.”
We lay in comfortable silence, stroking each other, kissing occasionally and generally revelling in the proximity and warmth of our naked bodies.
