Chapter 1136
Preparation
John was glad the events of the day were over. He needed to thank Savannah and Young Allison for keeping Cameron out of combat. They were the ones who set up the cruise. They knew Cameron needed to be undamaged or she wouldn't go. They did everything they could to keep Cameron occupied and out of harm's way. He doubted anything else other than Savannah and Young Allison could have kept Cameron from some type of damage.
Savannah personally delivered Cameron back to their room and Cameron was there waiting for him naked.
John and Cameron spent a night of on and off love making.
Cameron wanted to make sure John got plenty of sleep too. She wanted him fit and alert for the cruise. She'd done all the 'work' during their 'unions'.
Her main goal was to satisfy John as much as possible. She was only able to take pleasure for herself once. She didn't mind. It was almost like 'edging'. When it happened, it was even more special and rewarding for her.
Maybe it was one of the reasons why she liked to do all of the 'work'. Often when that task was left up to John, she was left high and dry. Well maybe that was the wrong description because things certainly weren't dry. John had been much better for the last week as she trained him to be able to perform multiple times. It made her wonder if it was what training a circus animal was like. Wait. Where did that thought come from? She shook her head to clear it.
They were going on their honeymoon and she wanted John to perform to his fullest extent. She didn't mind taking over to make sure he was satisfied. Sometimes love was about sacrifice. She was more than willing to sacrifice to make John happy.
Cameron spent the entire night. There were long periods where she needed to stare at the ceiling in the darkness as she contemplated everything. She tried to tune out the times he snored. There were a lot of them. She needed to pay attention in case he woke up after one of them. She would check to see if he was ready to go again. She'd set some goals and decided she was going to do what she always wanted to do. They would be rewarding to both John and her. Not only was she going to be able to 'get away from it all'. She was going to get to be 'someone different' when she used someone else's chassis. At this point, she didn't care if it was a male or female chassis. She was her program, not her chassis or sheath.
The new morning was here.
It was the day of the cruise for Cameron and John
There seemed to be a lot of excitement in the air.
Cameron wanted to surprise John. She made John a cup of coffee. It was ready for him when he woke up. She made sure that wasn't the only thing that was ready for him when he woke up. She was ready as well if he was.
She gave him a kiss as he took it.
John was as pleased as he was surprised. Not only was he surprised about the coffee, he was surprised that Cameron was there when he woke up. It usually wasn't the case. It was something it took him a long time to get over. He finally realized how boring it was for Cameron to stare at the ceiling in the darkness and listen to him snore. He didn't want to feel selfish in that regard. She didn't sleep and she refused to go into standby after her prior bad experience. They were other things she could do. He didn't need to listen to her remind him there were others available for his 'pleasure' as well.
He took in her naked beauty as she stood next to the bed. There was something right in his face and at eye level. He'd made extensive use of it throughout the night and earlier in the morning. He was very pleased Cameron had worked to build up his sexual stamina. She'd worked real hard with him for just over a week so that he could perform six or seven times a day. He was pretty sure he could push it up to eight. He hadn't been able to do that a month ago. He hadn't actually tried either.
He hadn't been able to perform like that since they'd first been married. Cameron had been away for a few months after their wedding night. He didn't like being alone. Once she was back he made the most of it. He tried to be with her ten times a day. It seemed like a long time ago now.
John slowly moved his eyes up and across Cameron'sf lat belly to her perky breasts. They finally rested on her beautiful face. He looked at her big brown puppy dog eyes. He knew what he wanted. He knew what he needed right now. His body responded, he was good to go. It looked like everyone wanted a piece of the action.
Cameron liked the way John looked at her. She could see he wanted more. She wanted more as well. She reached down and threw the sheet completely off of him. She looked at his naked form stretched out on the bed. It was clear everything was good to go. She knew she was as well. She was on top of him in a flash and started out slow. She leaned forward and took John in a deep kiss as she continued. He'd fondled her at first but now his arms held her tightly around her back. She picked up the speed as well as depth of motion. She held him tightly in her arms.
Seconds ago:
John looked up at Cameron. He wanted more and he could tell she did too. As he looked into her beautiful brown eyes, she reached down and pulled the cover off of him. In a flash she was on top of him and started in immediately. He didn't really have time to think about anything. He reached up to fondle her but she moved her upper body against him and kissed him. He grasped her and held her tightly as she took him. Everything was intense. The more excited he became, the deeper Cameron's kiss became. In this moment he felt as if they were one.
Cameron could feel John respond to her in multiple ways as she made love to him. She could feel he was about to deliver. She currently held him in a deep kiss. She deepened it even further as John made it. She didn't slow her pace at all. John squirmed wildly beneath her as she continued. She made it again. John's hands moved from her back and slightly pushed on her waist to indicate she should stop. She made it again and rapidly slowed her pace and stopped. Her body was completely pressed against his and she still held the deep kiss with him. She felt as if they were one.
They both clung tightly together as the deep kiss between both of them was held.
John needed some air. He gasped slightly as he took in the fresh air.
Cameron lifted her head and looked into John's eyes as he took a few deep breaths.
"I guarantee you an entire week of that, plus a whole lot more." Cameron said.
John still needed to get all of his breath back. Cameron had just worked him hard. He wasn't sure what the duration of the latest sharing was but he figured an entire week of multiple events like that was going to be out of this world. He wasn't really sure how it could be a whole lot more either. What could be more than that?
"I can hardly wait." John said. "It looks like we're off to a good start."
Cameron wanted to make sure that John had the best honeymoon ever. She was going to do everything she could to make it that way for him. She planned to get the future started if she could. John had been reluctant to move his life forward so far. She would really like to get Savannah or Young Allison to go with them. It didn't seem like it was going to happen. The 'Chosen Ones' were very adamant that the honeymoon be about John and her. She would really like to have provided John with a virgin for their honeymoon. Maybe she would try later on to get Savannah or Young Allison to come along.
She carried John into the bathroom. She started the shower water while John took care of his personal business. The water was nice and warm when he arrived at the shower. They playfully washed each other off as they shared a lot of kisses and touches. They finished up and dried each other off. It was time to get down to business.
They both needed to pack for the trip.
John noticed Cameron didn't seem to pack very much.
"Thanks for the coffee, the love and the shower." John said as he watched Cameron pack. "You didn't take very much."
Cameron was informed by CamNet that all the luxury items needed for the cruise would be waiting in their room on the ship.
"I only need a few things." Cameron said. "We'll both have things waiting for us in our suite."
John was a little worried about the 'formal' nights. He'd never needed to dress like that for anything. He wasn't really comfortable with the idea.
"Are we going to do the 'dress up dinner' thing?" John asked.
Cameron tilted her head slightly.
"Of course we are." Cameron said. "I want to see you in a tuxedo."
Cameron thought John would look very handsome.
John wondered if a suit would be good enough but didn't ask. He wasn't really comfortable in one of those. In fact, the last time that he wore one was on the day that Cameron and he were married. It was a borrowed suit at that. John read that the 'dress up' events were all about selling pictures. Couples or families were seldom all in one place and dressed up at the same time. It made people more likely to get photos taken and then purchase them.
"Won't they take our picture?" John asked. "We don't need any problems."
Cameron didn't see any problem with that.
"The photos are all digital." Cameron said. "CamNet is in every system of the ship and the cruise line. Remember, she bought the cruise line with some of the money she confiscated from the Syndicate and the Cartel."
John still wondered about that. He didn't know CamNet pitted four street gangs against each other last night to cover their tracks and involvement with the Fanatics. He was aware it was a little more than CamNet that took on organized crime. He knew there was someone behind it.
"I still can't believe Young Allison ordered CamNet to take down the Syndicate." John said.
Cameron knew the true story but didn't want John to ponder over Young Allison's ruthlessness. She'd trained Young Allison to hit first, hit hard, hit low and keep hitting. Young Allison asked CamNet to 'wipe them out'. The same edict went into effect for four street gangs last night.
"Young Allison only asked CamNet to hinder and cripple their operations from the trouble we experienced at the casino in Las Vegas." Cameron said. "She wanted to give them other problems to worry about other than in our area. It put an immediate end to their interference in our orbit of affairs."
The magnitude of Young Allison's 'desire' wasn't lost on John.
"Either way, CamNet started the Syndicate and the Cartel into a war that has spread nationwide." John said. "Dozens have probably died by now."
Cameron didn't bother to mention thousands would die.
"It's hundreds by now. It's spread worldwide." Cameron said. "CamNet has taken hundreds of billions of dollars from both of them. She invested some of it in the cruise line when she bought it."
John was aware when Young Allison hit, she hit hard. The deaths she'd caused didn't seem to trouble her. She said they were all future Scavengers anyway if Judgment Day occurred.
He looked at Cameron's tight and trim figure.
"Are you going to do any sunbathing?" John asked.
Cameron played it a little coy. She was willing to 'show off' a little.
"I don't want to needlessly damage my sheath with the sun." Cameron said. "I'll bring along a swimsuit and bikini. I may need to show the other females on board what true beauty looks like."
Cameron knew others thought she was beautiful. She wasn't really sure why. Her appearance wasn't even her own. It belonged to Allison Young. She knew Savannah and Young Allison were beautiful. They were perfect to her but she felt 'flawed'. She wondered if there was really such a thing as 'flawed beauty'. She believed that her appearance was just average. She felt most of the things that were wrong with her, were all inside of her.
John felt Cameron was beautiful.
"You always look Tight." John said.
Cameron was afraid loving eyes were blind. Maybe she was nothing special to look at. She did try her hardest to please John.
"I've always tried to give you the best." Cameron said.
Cameron knew appearance mattered to John. That's why she stopped letting him see her sheath when it was damaged. She didn't want him to be disgusted at the sight of her. She didn't want those images to be in John's mind. She reached up and absently mindedly touched her right breast. She remembered when there was only rumpled sheath material there after repeated damage in the same area. It gave her comfort to know Savannah loved her no matter what she looked like or how badly she was damaged. They were two different types of love. One was more physical and the other was more emotional. She started to reach up and touch the left side of her face. She remembered how badly damaged she was damaged when John sent her to get Sarah out of jail. She quickly lowered her hand. Why couldn't he have waited a few days until they transferred her? They would have taken Sarah back to the insane asylum. It would have been much easier to take that location down or simply nab her on the way there. She didn't want to think about that right now. They were supposed to go on their honeymoon. She didn't want to be angry at John.
John was a little concerned at what Cameron might try to pull when they were isolated and alone on the ship. He was ready for some fresh meat but this was their long overdue honeymoon. Cameron told him so many times over and over how he was supposed to move his life forward. He was more than ready to do that as long as Cameron was there too. He hoped maybe there would be a special treat for him. Cameron promised him the best honeymoon ever. He really didn't know what that was supposed to mean. He would try to play it a little cool to see what she would say.
"Who else will be on board?" John asked. "I don't want any of the girls to be there."
John knew if the human girls were on board that Cameron would push them on him. It was better if they were not there since this was their honeymoon. The chance to have a virgin was still a nice thought. Maybe next time…. When he referred to the 'girls', he mainly thought of Savannah and Young Allison. He didn't really think about Vanna, Allison, Jesse or Claire. Maybe he should have.
Cameron needed to protect John from the anti-Metal faction. She thought he referred to Savannah and Young Allison as well. She was prepared to do that. It actually didn't bother her that much anymore. Maybe it was the prospect that she would be able to share with them too. It was very alluring to her. She was ready to expand as she allowed John to expand. She believed it would draw all of them closer. There would be the freedom to choose that was reinforced by what was always there. She tried to think who John would be most likely to accept in his bed. Maybe it was the mother instead of the daughter.
"I still can have Claire or Savannah in our suite for you." Cameron said. "It has an adjoining room. They can both be 'available'…. When they're not sharing with each other, I'm sure that one or both of them would be more than willing to share with you."
Cameron didn't think now was a good time to point out both of them were pregnant again. Maybe she was just trying to cover her tracks. They were both acting as surrogates for Allison and Vanna. She doubted John would last longer than two minutes with either of them if it did happen. It would allow her to test John's love over sexual desire.
It was a very alluring thought to John to have a choice of innocence or experience. He thought it would be best to break in Savannah first and then try Claire. The idea was very tempting. He figured he'd be lucky to last much longer than a minute with Savannah since it would be her first time. He didn't think that would be too bad because Savannah really wouldn't know what to expect. That would also allow him to last a little longer with Claire when he started in on her. She would know what to expect. She would also know what to do. He needed to focus. He wanted to spend time with Cameron.
"It's our long overdue honeymoon. Let's keep it that way." John said. "How many Terminators did you say were coming?"
Cameron ran a number of possibilities until she decided she was going to strip the virginity from one or more of the Metal girls. She didn't want to get too specific yet. Once they were on the ship, John would be more or less trapped, especially when they were at sea. That was most of the time.
"There will only be a few Terminators on board." Cameron said. "I was going to have Bob and Jim come along. They would share a room as a couple. They would be 'partners'."
John coughed and spit out the sip of coffee he was drinking.
He started laughing.
"I wasn't expecting that." John said.
Cameron tilted her head slightly. She was unsure why that was 'funny'. It was quite commonplace now. She actually thought they would make a good couple based on their long association. She wasn't sure if they're close association on the ship would have allowed them to expand their relationship further based upon the conditions around them. She didn't see anything wrong with it if it did. Both of them were sterile and couldn't reproduce. It shouldn't make a difference who their mate was. Events played out differently in the long run. That was where she was at now.
"Bob asked to be put on the security staff instead." Cameron said. "I left the final decision up to him. I like to be fair."
Cameron believed that she was very fair with everyone. She believed she treated Riley with more fairness than any of the rest of them. That even included Savannah. She knew they were other factors involved why all of the girls still kept some distance between Riley and themselves. She felt responsible for that as well. She didn't feel that she ever made anyone do something they didn't want to do on their own. She felt she opened the door for them. If they wanted to walk through, there was nothing to stop them but themselves.
John still pictured Bob and Jim as a couple on a cruise ship. He needed to get that image out of his head. He actually thought being a crew member might be a better choice for Bob. He wanted to know a little bit more since they were going to be on the ship in a few hours.
"So Bob will be part of the ship's crew?" John asked.
Cameron thought it was a good choice.
"Yes." Cameron said. "CamNet took care of everything. He'll be able to roam and patrol the ship at all hours."
That thought did cause John some worry. There was some image that always seemed to pop in his head when he thought about trouble on a Honeymoon cruise. He wasn't really sure
"We shouldn't have any problems right?" John asked. "What do you expect this to be, a 'Deadly Honeymoon'?"
There was something about the term 'Deadly Honeymoon' in the back of Cameron's mind. It seemed so familiar.
"I would hate for anyone to go 'missing'." Cameron said. "If there's any trouble, it will be dealt with."
John figured the security on the ship would be taken care of, that left the security at the ports of call.
"What about the ports?" John asked.
John wondered if they would have to stay on the ship. He'd like the opportunity to get out and look around at some of the ports, even if they were local. It was more than normally happened for him anyway.
Cameron believed she covered all the contingencies.
"I'll have a team of Terminators at each one. Everyone likes to get out now and then." Cameron said. "I'll also have a helicopter on standby at each port. We can be back to the base in a short time if we need to be."
John wanted to know how they would stay in touch with everything. He strongly doubted Cameron would remain in the 'dark' for an entire week about their current operations. He thought maybe he would need to know what was happening from time to time as well.
"What about our interface with John Henry and CamNet?" John asked.
Cameron made arrangements to cover that.
"Our own equipment will be on board in our room. It will be in the adjoining room to our suite. It's basically another suite connected to our massive suite." Cameron said. "I'll need something to do when you're asleep but I'll still be close enough for when you wake up. We still have a lot of love making to share. I expect no less than six times a day. I think eight times would be better."
John hoped he would be able to keep that expectation 'up'. He thought it was only supposed to be five or six times a day. Maybe the 'extra' one or more would be for one of the girls. She'd been building him up to that over the last week. He knew Cameron could do six hundred a day. He remembered he'd read somewhere that some porn star was with nearly one thousand men in a day. He didn't think six to eight times was too much to ask of him.
"You've been getting me into practice." John said. "I need to recharge a little."
Cameron didn't think it would be a problem. She would do most of the work. She would lead most of the time.
"I've been working on speeding up the recovery time for you." Cameron said. "I'll do most of the 'work'."
It seemed three out of four times already that Cameron did 'everything' herself. He realized he was along for the ride most of the time. That was okay with him too.
"You always do." John said. "You do it very well I'd like to say."
It was satisfying for Cameron to get John 'there'. It gave her a sense of accomplishment even if she didn't make it.
"A happy customer is a repeat customer." Cameron said with a smile.
Cameron gave John a playful kiss.
John watched on the videos that the cabins and suites were cleaned and serviced by a staff on board. It was done the same way as a hotel room would be. That meant strangers in the room.
"What about the people who tend to the rooms?" John asked.
Cameron was ready for that angle.
"The 'Owner's Suite' has full maid and steward service." Cameron said. "It's located in a private area with two other giant suites. They each have a regular suite as a spare bedroom as well."
John was a little concerned with some strangers seeing all the computer equipment. He wasn't sure what else she might bring along. He didn't want to ask and give her any ideas about something she wasn't already going to do.
"How do we keep them from seeing all of the gear?" John asked.
Cameron smiled to herself over that question.
"CamNet has everything covered." Cameron said. "We'll be protected and secure on our voyage."
John thought about Cameron's wording for a moment.
"I notice you didn't say 'safe'." John said.
Cameron learned from Sarah and John what she repeated back to him.
"No one's ever safe." Cameron said.
Cameron picked up her black dress.
John smiled when he saw Cameron's black dress.
"I see you are bringing your black dress." John said. "Are you going to wear underwear with it this time?"
Cameron looked at the black dress with satisfaction. She liked the way it showed off her figure. She didn't have any droop or sag anywhere. Everything on her sheath was high and tight.
"No." Cameron said. "When I wear this dress, it's all I wear. The dress and my high heels that is."
John was a little surprised to see some jewelry that Cameron set out. He didn't normally see that type of jewelry on any of the girls associated with the Resistance. They actually all specifically stayed away from jewelry unless it happened to be a set of nipple rings or a set of rings elsewhere, a little lower.
"I noticed you have a necklace among other things." John said.
Cameron looked at the jewelry. She'd actually acquired quite a bit of it. She didn't pay for any of it. She thought about what John told her one time back at the first house.
"Diamonds are a girl's best friend. I picked it up when I took down a drug kingpin." Cameron said. "It was one less future Scavenger and I made a haul of cash, precious metals and exotic stones. They'll all go for the purchase of weapons and supplies to be stockpiled for the future."
John learned long ago not to question Cameron about her operations outside the immediate scope of the Resistance operation. It provided them with unlimited funding. He knew anything that could not be bought was acquired through other means or terminations.
"I'm packed." John said.
Cameron in John each only held a 'carry on'.
"So am I." Cameron said.
John didn't realize how quickly they could pack. They just weren't taking that much.
"Now what will we do?" John asked.
Cameron hoped John would have slept a little longer. He didn't. They'd made productive use of the time after he woke up. They then showered and got everything ready. They were still ahead of schedule.
"It's still too early to go to the port." Cameron said. "I think you got up too early."
John was jazzed to actually be able to get out and go somewhere.
"I'm really excited about doing this." John said. "I seldom get out anymore."
Cameron still worried about John's safety.
"You need to be protected." Cameron said. "That's my function."
John looked at the clock on the dresser. There was time to kill.
"Do you have any other 'functions' that you can do?" John asked.
Cameron stripped off her top. She tossed it on a chair.
"I can think of a few." Cameron said.
She unhooked her bra and held it out at arms length and dropped it on top of her shirt.
"Oops." Cameron said.
John looked at her topless figure and was instantly excited. He knew what was 'coming' next.
"You look beautiful, Cameron." John said.
Cameron knew her beauty belonged to Allison, all of them. She was going to point that out to John but decided not to. It always seemed to upset him. She knew one day that it would be Young Allison standing there in front of him, with Savannah. The future was always knocking. John would need to be protected from the anti-Metal faction. She'd made Savannah and Young Allison promise almost their entire lives to help protect John at his side and in his bed. She'd made both of them 'child brides' years ago, even if the relationship was yet to be consummated. She'd given John what he asked her to do for him. Well, it was what Future John asked for his younger self.
John wondered why Cameron stopped undressing.
Cameron blinked a few times and came back to the present.
"Well?" Cameron asked with a smile on her face.
John moved forward and removed the rest of Cameron's clothes as she removed his.
"This doesn't count for the cruise." Cameron whispered in his ear. "This one is extra."
John swallowed hard. It would technically be the third time since the day started.
Cameron scooped John's naked body up in her arms and carried him to the bed. She carefully laid him down.
"You can relax." Cameron said. "I'll do everything."
John already liked where this was going.
"Start me up." John said.
Cameron reached down and touched John. She could see he was about halfway to 'full attention'.
"I think I know a few ways." Cameron said as she giggled.
Cameron bent over John and showed him one of the ways.
John watched her head move up and down. He always liked when she did that. It was OK with him if she kept going. She wouldn't get much pleasure though.
She lifted her head and looked at her handiwork after a very short time. She thought about finishing him off that way but she wanted something out of it as well. She liked to have her 'bell' rung too.
"It's ready." Cameron said as she smiled at John. "'Little Willie' has 'risen' for the occasion."
She thought about which way to please John this time. She was very satisfied with the results the last time so she decided to do it the same way again. She moved up on top and gave him a kiss. It was time to get started.
"Oh, Cameron…." John said.
Cameron gave John another kiss and deepened it as she started. She knew it's what John liked and shared it with him. She increased her speed as she held the kiss.
She soon felt John grasp her tightly. She rapidly slowed and stopped. She was still on top of John as she held him. She released the kiss.
John gasped for air. His chest heaved.
"I love you, Cameron, and you love me." John said with much difficulty.
Cameron's face was right against John's face.
"I love you, John, and you love me." Cameron said.
John was sure it was better than the last time and that was only a couple of hours ago.
"That was incredible." John said. "Just like always."
Cameron often wanted to ask him if it was better than Riley, the dead one, but never did. She knew she was better at everything. It was still something that always haunted her. She felt John never should have reached out or touched Future Riley for anything. She'd always been right there for him and indicated she was 'available'. She didn't want to dwell in the past. Life moved forwards not backwards.
"We need to get ready." Cameron said.
John still breathed heavily from Cameron's performance.
"I'm going to need a few minutes." John said.
Cameron knew there were other ways to assist John.
"Hardly…." Cameron said.
She stood and carried John to the shower.
"I can stand." John said.
Cameron wanted the shower to be like the last one that they'd just shared.
"You can wash me." Cameron said as she turned the water on. "You know what spots I like you to be 'thorough' on."
Cameron gave John another kiss.
John really wondered what he was in for. He wanted to make sure.
"So we're going to have a whole week of this?" John asked.
Cameron wanted to give John a few sly reminders. She tried to keep a straight face.
"Yes." Cameron said. "With nothing else to do but for you to eat, be entertained and there's food too. I know 'Little Willie' is going to get a workout."
John moved behind Cameron, his hands reaching around her as he washed her breasts.
Her hands closed over his hands and kneaded them into her breasts. It made her think back to when Ginger needed to graft the front section of her sheath onto her chassis. Ginger's breasts were four times the volume of hers. They were very plump and she really liked the super pink nipples. Everything was long since Resequence back to normal at this point in time. She liked the way that she always looked. It was apparent that John did as well. She still believed she looked better than Future Riley. She didn't want to think about that. It was to be a special time for John and her on the ship.
Cameron turned her head back and gave John another kiss. She then slid his hands down to her 'secret spot'.
John was very excited at everything Cameron did. He knew she was with him whenever she could be but he knew she took the burden of fighting the 'war' on her own shoulders as much as possible. He knew she didn't like him to see her with sheath damage. He was up for her program in another chassis at this point if she was. He'd accepted she was her program in whatever chassis it was in. He didn't want it to be tied to loving 'Allison's appearance' only. It still bothered him when Cameron mentioned it. When he'd first met Cameron in Red Valley he didn't know who Allison Young was. To him, that appearance was always 'Cameron'.
He 'finished' Cameron off and they finished their shower. They playfully dried each other.
They dressed quickly in the bedroom.
John was a little worried that maybe they'd spent too much time making love.
"We're not going to be late are we?" John asked.
Cameron thought it was covered.
"Not when I own the ship. Well, when CamNet owns the ship we won't." Cameron said. "We have plenty of time."
John began to wonder about some of the smaller details.
"What about security?" John asked. "Won't we have to go through a metal detector or something? I remember you don't do so well through those things."
Cameron wasn't worried about any of the security equipment. It would all be dealt with.
"CamNet has it covered." Cameron said.
John wondered if there would be any intrigue or mystery involved.
"Are we going to go on as Homeland Security or Interpol Agents or something?" John asked.
Cameron tilted her head slightly. It was an option.
"That can be a back story if we need it." Cameron said. "We won't, I hope."
John finished dressing and put on a pair of mirror sunglasses. He reached up and touched his facial hair.
"How do I look?" John asked. "My goatee isn't that thick."
Cameron thought of a character from a recent movie that was out.
"You look like a young Tony Stark." Cameron said.
John liked to hear that. He liked the way that Iron Man's alter ego looked.
"I look that good?" John asked.
Cameron smiled and touched his cheek.
"You look better." Cameron said.
Cameron gave John another kiss.
Preparation
Do plans ever work out
Or is it just an illusion
Everything always changes
It's not just a delusion
One plus one may not equal two
Everything isn't as it seems
If one wants to know for sure
Just listen to the screams
Everyone thinks that they're
The one that's in control
All they leave in their soul
Is an even bigger hole
Everything is in flux
There's no sure path
All one will find there
Is anger, hurt and wrath
Don't get caught up with elation
If it expands beyond flirtation
Everything will end in frustration
No matter how much preparation
Nobody
