I want to object to doing anything else but dress and start problem solving now, but when her lips meet mine? I lose myself in her kiss and open the shower door. Pausing long enough to say, “It’s a deal,” I pull her body close to mine and turn on the warm sonics.

“Cinq? Can we have frisky times in here with your wound and all?”

I shrug and go back to nuzzling her neck. “The medicines are working. I’m tender there but not in agony.”

“Good, and, um, something else, should I accept this match the system is telling me about?”

Joy fills me. Her system knows we’re a couple even without my tech to answer hers. “Only if you want to. The choice is yours.”
