    Summary

    Jax didn’t deserve to be forgiven, so he really didn’t want that from her in the first place, actually. But, god, he thought. He wanted this a whole lot. It wasn’t a very difficult decision.

    (Or: Pomni and Jax try something new to forget the abysmal situation they're in.)

    Summary

    “I just,” Pomni whispered, doing this little slow-blink that drove him nuts right up at him, and his heart clenched. She seemed surprised to admit, “I can’t think of anything to say.”

    Jax thought that someone could have driven a train through the place right now and still he wouldn’t have turned away from her. The truth was he didn’t have any ideas himself of what to say, but in disclaiming this herself she hadn’t said anything he needed to respond to, anyway. He could have stayed silent and they both would have been content with that, he thought. But her eyes were so open and honest and there was this squeezing feeling in his chest that felt deeper than a heartbeat, and he heard his own voice pipe up, anyway. 

    “I …” he whispered. Quietly admitting,  “Me, neither.”

    Summary

    “Is it even gonna …” Jax grumbled, face pressed into the sheets. “Does it even feel good?”

    Pomni didn’t think he’d take an I have no fucking idea very well, so instead she tried to deflect. “Did it not feel good last time, when I—”

    “That was a one-off,” Jax snapped, prying a hand from the sheets to point accusingly backward at her. “It was—I don’t know, you caught me off guard, or something!”

    Summary

    She peered over at him. “Shut the door.”

    Jax was staring at her in a way she wasn’t sure she’d seen before. His expression was so … open. It was the only word that came to mind. He seemed both apprehensive and prepared to absorb whatever she threw at him at the same time.

    Maybe that meant his guard was up—but he did as she asked, anyway, putting a hand on the door and pushing until it shut with a click.

    Summary

    Pomni stepped into the room just a little, leaning her weight back against the door. She thought about toying with him a little, but at the end of the day, she really just wanted to get down to it. Pressing her lips together, she glanced quickly around the hall, watchful for familiar faces that actually might question her if they saw who she was talking to.

    When she felt the coast was sufficiently clear, she turned back to him. “What are you doing after work?”

    Jax only stared at her for a beat or two, his eyes a touch wider than they had been a moment ago. He seemed surprised to hear her be so forward—an unintended effect, but not an unwelcome one.

    At length, though, he smirked. “You tell me.”
