RATING: R for sexual references
CONTENT: Reggie/Millie friendship, Mason/George romance George/Luc sex
SUMMARY: George decides to take the plunge (no pun intended, you'll see why)
AUTHORS NOTES: All right this as close as NC-17 as I'm going to write, and the juciest dets you're going to get about G&M's relastionship, so deal with it! Song used in this one is black lab's keep yourself awake. You may be able to find this one of the buffy OST too, if it's from there someone please confirm. I don't know why I fit it there, feel free to bitch slap me if you hate where I put it. I got a little ambitious and the two kind of go hand in hand, but since the concept is A (one) day in the life I had to make it two parts… couldn't leave 'ya hanging though…
Thanx goes to my wonderful boy and a special friend for the handle on the first person situation….
On with the show….
The next morning when I woke up I decided to just sleep with Luc, as long as Reggie thought that it was an okay idea. After all she had been raised the same way as I did, and if she didn't have a problem with me having causal sex with some guy I didn't know then I knew that what I was thinking wasn't completely wrong and immoral! I could hardly believe that I was actually seriously considering having sex with someone just for the sake of having sex with them, Daisy would be proud.
I pushed the cat aside, and went downstairs, knowing that Anika and everyone else would soon be showing up. Luc was still sleeping, and look at him, I had to admit he was very attractive. He was tall with nice eyes, not as great as Colt's though, and a good build. It wasn't a bad thing that he wanted to have sex with me, it was me who needed to give up her morals a little. There was nothing wrong if I did decide to just have sex with him.
After I had made the coffee Luc got up, and didn't mention anything about the conversation the day before, I was glad as I still didn't know what I was going to do. Moments later Colt had followed the smell of coffee up the stairs. I don't even think his eyes were open until he took his first sip of coffee. I noted to myself not to change where we kept the coffee maker or he'd injure himself.
Anika handed out our post-its, and had Luc stay behind after we all dispersed, meaning that his time with us was very short, and I had to act quick, his last soul was probably going to be the next day. I went immediate upstairs to check my email, and was relieved to find that Reggie had emailed me back.Hello,
Millie, I'm married so I don't know what to tell you, other then you're not that much older then me and you're not dead!
I know that you don't like to hear this, but Mason is not coming back, and I know that he broke your heart, but I highly doubt you'll be in a serious relationship with the first guy you're with after him.
Have fun! You would have been doing that had you not gotten into a serious relationship so young! So live like you're young again, and just be careful about it.
That's all I can really say about that.
-Reggie
I was very relieved that she thought that it wasn't a bad idea, even if she didn't know the truth about Mason. It was true, he wasn't coming back, and there should be no reason why I was becoming a prude, and grumpy. Especially when I had an opportunity to see if I could get out of my funk right in front of me. If I didn't cease the opportunity it's be a while before it arose again. What was that saying? Carpe Diem? It was about time I did. I decided to not tell Luc right away, as much fun as it would be to tease him, we both had other things to focus on that day. I looked my post-it, and discovered that It wasn't far from my house, and it was half way through the day. I was kind of curious where Luc's was, and at what time. I went downstairs.
"Hi," I said. "When's yours?"
"One thirty," he told me.
"Mine too." I held out the post it.
"It seems that we're going to be going to the same place."
"Well that's a good thing I guess."
"So you've forgiven me for what I said yesterday?"
"Thought about it a lot, and yeah, there's no point in being mad."
He shrugged. "I find you attractive, and seeing as my last day is tomorrow even if we had wanted we couldn't have had anything real."
"I don't want anything real, I still hold out hope that I will be reunited with Mason in whatever is to come."
"You still believe that there is something good ahead?"
"I wouldn't be able to do this if I thought that people were falling into a void, or worse going to hell."
He shrugged. "That's rather noble of you."
I shook my head. "We all have our beliefs I suppose, and I guess it's all about learning how to respect the beliefs of others."
He nodded. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize that you didn't do the casual sex thing."
"How do you know that I don't?"
"From the way you reacted yesterday."
"You have to remember I was eighteen when I died and Mason was the first person I was with. I don't know what my feelings on the matter are because I never really had to think about it. I went from being very single to very much in love."
"I can understand that, have never done that but I understand what you're telling me."
When he wasn't acting like an ass, he wasn't a bad guy. Somehow I was glad that he was going to be leaving the next day, I think that had he been staying I probably would have changed my mind about the whole thing. I would be afraid that it would get too serious. A casual relationship seemed even more stressful then a real one. At least in a real relationship you could always fall back on your love for one another. We kind of just stopped talking and avoided each other the rest of the day. We hardly even spoke when we got to the spot where our appointments were that day.
It was a pretty simple death. A couple had decided that to celebrate their love for one another they would bungee jump together. For whatever reason they decided that it would be a good idea to not get professionals involved. Someone told me that they thought it was more romantic to do it all by themselves. Here I thought that love was blind, not stupid.
To make a long story short they forgot that the point of bungee cord is that it stretches and when they jumped off the side of the cliff they simply kept falling until they ended up on the ground in a rather gruesome mess. The couple appeared on the top of the cliff, looking at each other, confused.
"I don't remember anything," the woman said.
"Look down, you're dead," I told her, good god I really had picked up on some of Mason's worst reaping habits.
She looked down at the mess that lay underneath her, and would have puked if souls had the ability to do so, which just all the more proved to her that she was really dead. They took it pretty well, and seemed to be happy together.
"I just have one question," said the man. "What did we do wrong?"
"Bungee cord needs room to bungee," Luc explained, shaking his head.
The man started to laugh uncontrollably until the woman pointed out two parasails in the distance, and the couple went towards them. I never did understand extreme sports types. I was undead and I thought that doing anything like that was incredibly stupid. Maybe it was the inability to die that made it so unappealing. That much rehab seemed like an awful lot of stuff to go through on top of work.
"I'm sorry that I keep pissing you off, I'm really not trying to," Luc explained.
"How much do I have to like what you act like if all I want to do is fuck you?" I asked him.
His jaw dropped. "Did you say what I think you just said?"
"What did you think I said?"
"That you wanted to fuck me."
"Then your ears are working."
"What made you change your mind?"
I shrugged. "I talked with a couple of people, and they seemed to agree that having sex may good for me, and since you offered I figured I may as well take you up on the offer. Who knows when an offer may pop up again."
"To be honest I don't care what made you change your mind, I'm just glad you did."
"You seem awfully excited about this."
"I told you already you're beautiful."
I found out much later from another temp that Luc and Mason had had a rivalry going on until he started going out with me. I guess somehow he thought sleeping with me would beat Mason. Crazy person love is much more important then a name on a scorecard. I kind of wished that I had of known that before hand or else I would have waited for someone else. It wasn't having sex that I regretted, it was who I had it with. I made me feel very dirty and like I had hurt him in a way that could not be fixed. The other thing that kind of got to me was that I had sex with another man in Mason's bed, but I couldn't very well go anywhere else.
We got home and we went almost right to my room. It wasn't as romantic as when I was with Mason. There were times when we had quickies, but for the most part it was very romantic, with a lot of touching, and hugging, and kissing, and "I love you's" involved. With Luc it was very different, very primal.
For one thing I always liked foreplay better then sex with Mason, but Luc didn't seem to like that and what I wanted didn't seem as important as what he wanted, so there was very little but the actual intercourse.
When I was with Mason I sometimes let him be in control, and it made me feel good but when control was forced upon me I didn't really like it that much, but beggars can't be choosers, and there was no way that it would happen again, so I just went with it. I didn't even bother to tell him that I didn't really enjoy and only came because it had been so long since I had felt a man inside me.
The other thing that I had a lot of trouble with was that whenever Mason and I made love we would hold each other after, but Luc just left after he was done. All the way though the experience I kept reminding myself that it was sex not love making, but it still didn't seem right to me. But I was very glad for the release. After we finished I read a book, and moped around the house, and just busied myself until it was time for bed.
I was surprised when he came back right as I was getting into bed. I don't know what made me do it again, but I had sex with him again. That time all I could think of was the close your eyes and think of England advise. I seriously just stared at the ceiling, there was nothing romantic or nice about it at all. I wanted more then anything for him to just morph into Mason who was so gentle and nice to me. I was glad when it was over, but I didn't regret it.
After he left I had turned on my radio and fell asleep. I had a dream about Mason, and heard a song that made me cry, when I was thinking about him.
Black Lab - keep myself awake à song plays after G&L hook up before he moves on
I hate to talk like this, I hate to wipe this in
Suffer all that I can say
I have this dream at night, almost every night
I've been dreaming it forever
It's easy to remember it…
It's always cold, It's always day
You always here, You always say
I'm all right, I'll be okay
If I can keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
Get up early and look around me and
Can't help but wonder what you need
Cause when I'm sleeping an'
So deep an'
It's so much more real to me
Closer then reality
It's always cold, It's always day
You're alway always here, You always say
I'm all right, I'll be okay
If I can keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
Get up early in and
Look around me and
Buyin' coffee by the pound
When I'm sleepin' an'
So deep an'
I keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
Keep myself awake
I really didn't know why the song effected me so much and reminded me so much of Mason but it did, and I ended up crying myself to sleep that night. Not even the comfort of the cat made me feel much better about myself. Part of me wanted to wake up Colt and talk to him. But instead I sent a quick message to Reggie asking her if she thought I had done the right thing. She told me that I had to stop stressing and that Mason even if he had died would not be upset that I was moving on. But I wasn't really moving on, I was just getting what I needed, and made me feel dirty.
End
End notes; so, yeah, that's it for this part, it's short but I felt it had be written. I lied again I think may have to do one more time jump before the final one. I just keep getting more and more ideas for more and more songs. Don't ask me why keep myself awake seemed to fit for the after sex scene, I couldn't tell 'ya!
