“Periods suck. I wanted to rub your back or get you a heating pad and make you dinner. All the girlfriend crap, you know?”

“That’s really sweet, Silver.”

“I didn’t want to overstep, or I would have offered, but maybe next time.”

“Yeah, next time.” Honor squeezed her hand. “You said something about more rules?”

“Oh, yeah. Communication and safety.”

“Okay.”

“I want to know when you’re with someone.”

“I don’t know that I will be with someone.”

“You don’t have to know it right now. I’m just saying that if that happens, that you want to be with someone else, I want to know about it.”

“Before or after?”

“Both, if possible. But I know some things get heated fast, and you might not have time to send a quick text, so after.”

“You’ll do the same?”

“Yes.” Silver nodded. “And safety. Regular testing after any partner where you’ve gone down on them, or they’ve done that to you if you’re doing it without protection, and we don’t do that without a dental dam until after the results come back. That kind of a thing. If I’m fucking someone with a dildo, it’s not one I’d use on you. Same for you. But if you’re in a pinch and have no choice, there’s a condom.”

Honor looked around the restaurant.

“Too much? Should I stop?”

“No,” she said. “It’s just that I’ve never thought of…” She leaned in closer. “Fucking someone with one of those. I don’t think it was fucking when I used the double-sided one with you.”

“No, it wasn’t. Are you thinking about it now?”

“Yes.”

“Me?”

“Yes. Would you want that?” Honor asked.

Silver nodded and said, “But I do like to be the one doing the fucking most of the time.”

“More than okay with me.” Honor’s cheeks were red.

“Hey, come here.” Silver put her fingertip on Honor’s chin and moved her lips to Honor’s, giving her a quick kiss. “You are being very cute right now.”

“Cute? I’m barely hanging in there.”

“Why?”

“Because I’m turned on, and I’m actually thinking of asking you to take me into the bathroom and just get me off really fast.”

“Another time, I definitely will,” Silver replied. “Now, if we’re dating, we’re dating. That means we go on dates or do other activities outside the bedroom, like going to dinner and me kissing you over the table when it’s not going to lead to anything else.”

“Right. Okay.”

“But, Honor, I don’t know how I’d feel about you actually dating someone else, too. I mean, we can try it, if you want to, but I feel like I just want this part to be you and me.”

“Okay,” Honor said.
