Doc, Jaden, Medicine and Some Rest (Myself and leonardo de tigre only)

[Mr.Fabulous]

Jaden opened her eyes to the warm, pleasant feeling of Doc still wrapped around her. Smiling gently to herself, a frown quickly formed on her face when she realized they were now lying on a bed, instead of the pool. On top of that, she had a splitting headache and her belly groaned in despair from the Grog that still lingered in her system. But at least the rest of her body felt heavenly from what had transpired last ni-

... Wait. From what transpired last night? Oh... Madre mia! Jaden mentally facepalmed herself red at remembering she had just shared steamy, loving sex in the pool with the illustrious Doc Holliday, leader of the TAZ, of all people! Despite the migraine in her head, her thought processes were as clear as ever, and they told her she had just soiled the matrimonial vows of a happy, married man with carnal sin, tempted a well-meaning doctor into break his unwritten vows of professionalism, and having tempted another innocent into the ways of the Black Grog. Wow, Jaden... How the hell did you get yourself into these things, she thought to herself.

On the other hand, she felt Doc suddenly shuffle underneath the covers, making her flinch still. As he settled down, he pulled her in closer to him and sighed contently as her body heat gave him comfort. Still sleeping soundly, his body gently spooning her naked and tiredly-satisfied body, and his arms still lovingly embracing her, another thought came to her mind that... maybe this wasn't so bad. After all, her body wasn't complaining from how well-pleasured it was, so she supposed it was a good thing. She just wished she remembered more of that night than the blur of naughtiness and alcohol that clouded her senses at the time. What a pity.

Still... How would she explain this to David? He was already showing signs of cracking. She thought she was on a roll this time, but a fiasco like this would only undermine what she's done with him so far. And it would certainly make that already-distrusting man further retreat into his cold shell. Seriously... Wow, Jaden. Everything was already going good for you, and now you just... Wow... Slow claps go to you, you little pita.

Actually, you know what? He doesn't need to know any of this, she figured. This was just another one of her moments of weakness, something that he of all people should've come to already accept from someone like her to occasionally suffer from. Anyway, this could just be a one-time fling, a total accident that wasn't meant to be, right?

... Right?

Jaden turned her head a bit to look behind her, and still saw Doc sleeping soundly there. Their talk last night... it transcended far beyond a simple medical and terraforming question. Indeed, she could still remember most of what happened that led them to this point, and it all made her feel sorry for him. A gentleman long distant from his home, wife and kids, a gentleman long fatigued by the stresses of his monumental work, a gentleman long tired and given little chance to be gentle. In turn, she shared her own painful tales of lost lovers and lost causes, a few of her present dilemmas, and the dilemmas that would siege her far into the distant future.

Both of them were paining. Both of them were tired. And both of them were very, very lonely. Or perhaps she was overthinking again. Feh, what a bother...

With that, she let out a deep sigh and leaned closer into Doc's warm embrace, reluctant to sour what was a perfectly-sweet morning any further. Closing her eyes, she waited patiently for Doc's turn to rise from his slumber, half-hoping he would have more wisdom to help her deal with her devils.
