But I tried to keep silent.

"Ok, one thing I will say about you is that you trust me." Kaila laughed after breaking the kiss. "So many times nobody can listen to a simple basic fucking instruction. Don't ask any questions! You know what everybody always says? Every time? "Why Not?"" She snorted, rolling her eyes. "Which of course, is itself a question."

I looked at her blankly. Was... wait, memories of Helen, and an Owl floated back into my mind. Where was Helen? And why was Kaila another... wait, did I believe this shit? Was I going crazy? So many questions burned into my brain, and pulled by lower lip between my teeth and bit down, willing myself not to ruin this.

"I'm sorry. I wish... I can't say a lot. There are things I can say, things I can't say, and things that I can only say in response to a question. I hate these fucking rules. What's worse is the rules are something else I can't talk about."

"So, Pe... Dammit, Brent... I'm still... after two years of memories I'm still trying to get used to your name, can you believe that?" She laughed. "I mean, when I just had one lifetime to work with it was easy."

She leaned into me and kissed me again. I felt her instrument bump against me, as her arms came around me, pulling me into her tight embrace.

"I want you Brent." She whispered against my lips. "I want you one last time but it would be... I'll be cheating if I do this. I don't care, but I know you do."

She looked at me sadly, her arms stroking along my back.

"I don't love my husband anymore. I didn't even know I was married. I don't think I ever really loved him. And he's cheated on me. So many times." She sighed. "And I have to act insulted. Like it bothers me that he leaves me alone. If you can't do this, I understand. It could make the rest of this harder."

"I'm already hard..." I grinned, nipping my teeth at her ear.

"Oh... you... are you serious?" She laughed, gliding her hand across my sweater to press against my jeans. "Shit you are... and you just fucked our girlfriend too... What has gotten INTO you, baby?"

"I just found out who my girlfriend and my wife is." I snickered.

"Oh yeah, I'm never going to hear the end of that one. Hope you have some left for your other girlfriend after I'm done with you. Just don't ask me any questions." Kaila grinned, stepping back. Her hands went to her hair and knocked the updo askew with a momentary nudge. There was a flash of gold as something fell against the asphalt, and another lighter sound echoed in the still of the dim light.

"That mattress..." She pointed, with one hand, while reaching across herself with her other. I glanced in the direction and noted a extremely clean looking mattress, especially considering it was stuck in the middle of... NO QUESTIONS! I reminded myself trying to focus on the fact that my beautiful wife was peeling her dress off one handed.
