For Nina and the prompt: Ros/Adam and suburbs.


She knows it will never last, this thing between her and Adam. He needs a wife, a mother for Wes, someone who'll be happy to settle in the suburbs and keep house.

Ros is too restless, too used to being on her own. Maybe that's why she went to bed with Adam in the first place, because she knew from the start there could be no future for them. She's never wanted to be someone's wife, someone's mother.

Even so, even though this must end soon, she'll enjoy the affair for a while longer.

For as long as she can.
