Concerned eyes were trained on her the very second she inhaled a little sharper than expected.

"That didn't sound good…"

She shrugged a little as she forced herself to relax, "-Just that issue I've told you about…"

"That endo-stuff?" he asked as he let one hand glide over the front of her thigh.

She nodded.

"That causes pain with this stuff as well?" his eyes were just as concerned, if not more.

She shrugged, "Sometimes. Don't think about it."

"No-no-no-no." his eyebrows knitted closer together, "I want you to be comfortable. We don't have to do this if it's hurting you…"

She chuckled a bit, "I already told you, don't worry about it… And it's not like we could be a couple without doing this at least once in a while."

He opened and closed his mouth a couple of times, not really knowing what to say.

"Don't worry about it…" she winked.

"Any way we can make this less painful for you?"

She shrugged a little, "Never been a perfect answer to that question. Some days nothing hurts, some days everything does."

"I don't want to hurt you…"

She took a deep breath, "Will you just relax, alright?"

A small smirk tugged at his lips at her frustration, "Probably not the thing you want to hear right now, but you're kinda hot when you're annoyed."

She chuckled.

"Now, any way I can ensure this will be as comfortable as possible for you?"

"Well, you can't exactly grow smaller…" Emily rolled her eyes, causing Metal to flash a cocky smile, "But one trick is to take it slow. Gentle."

Metal nodded and let his other hand travel from her thigh and up her side, "Alright. Your pace."

She nodded and moved her hips gently, "You sure you're comfortable as well?"

He chuckled and squeezed her left thigh gently, "Can't remember being more comfortable."

"I can't believe we haven't done that before…" Metal chuckled after Emily had laid down next to him again.

She chuckled as well, "Well, you haven't really been up for that much physical activity the last few months…"

He nodded a little, "True."

She pressed a kiss against his chest, he answered it with a kiss on top of her head.

"You good?" he whispered, looking down at her.

She nodded against his chest, "Perfect… How's your leg?"

He pulled his leg towards him a little before he lifted it in order to study the boot he had put back on after the shower, "Forgot about it for a few minutes there… How was your… The pain thing?"

"Not bad…" she pulled herself a bit closer to him.

He furrowed his brow and looked over at her with concern.

"I would tell you if it hurt too much." She sighed and drew a pattern on his chest with her fingers, "When I don't, the pleasure overrides the pain."

"I still don't like the thought of you being in pain…"

"Nothing you can do about it." She shrugged, "Better just accept it and make the best out of it."

He nodded a little.
