    Summary

    The stranger took a deep breath, and it was the first time she came seemed even slightly uncomfortable. Now they had agreed on a price and Vi had accepted, perhaps the rich Piltie had lost her nerve. Despite her sudden discomfort, her eyes did not waver. They stared into Vi without blinking, sultry, unbreakable — as if they’d known each other for years. 

    “I’m not interested in receiving.” she said, shifting slightly where she sat. “I am not interested in…my own pleasure. I prefer to do the pleasuring.”

    Vi swallowed.

    Well, she hadn’t been expecting that.

    Summary

    “Nah, you way over-tipped last night. This one’s on the house.”

    Lena’s shoulders slump in mock exasperation. “Kara, don’t start with me.”

    “I am absolutely starting with you.”

    What a smug little shit, Lena thinks. But God is she cute. “You really don’t want to play this game.”

    "Yeah? Maybe I do.”

    It’s said so softly, so gently, and if this was one of Siobhan’s movies, they wouldn’t be talking about the money or drinks at all, they’d be talking about something clenching around Lena’s chest, something stifling, a loneliness that paralyzes her bones.

    “Don’t blame me when you lose,” Lena says with a gentle upturn of her mouth, her voice low and crackling, leaving a fifty-dollar bill on the bartop before she turns away.

    Summary

    “I’m sure.” Lena doesn’t mean to snap —it’s more of a mild annoyance if anything because if her once best friend doesn’t know that there is no way in hell she would be doing this if she didn’t want to, if she didn’t, however unwillingly, trust Kara with this, then did she ever know her at all? “As long as you’re amenable, Kara, I’m offering my complete consent. Is that okay, or would you like it in writing as well?”

    For the first time, Lena’s snipe and the crystal clear memory of their last phone call just makes Kara smile. “I’m good,” she says softly.

    “Good.”

    “You know, a week ago, the morning after we— I’d convinced myself it was a dream. I was scared to check my call log.”

    “Do you have many wet dreams about me, Kara?”

    Kara laughs suddenly, though she can’t help but feel like she’s been missing out on an essential experience. “No.”

    “Shame.”

    “You, uh, you hung up last time,” Kara ventures hesitantly. “Before I could…”

    “If you’re worried I didn’t complete the mission, I’m happy to inform you that I did.”

    “No, before I could tell you that you sounded beautiful.”
