\u201cYou don\u2019t show someone you care about them by fucking them, Summer.\u201d Tony growled, moving his eyes back to the TV just to piss her off more. \u201cAnd if you remember correctly I did sit here and reassure you. Or are we just not counting the time I listened to you complain about those bitches?\u201d He crossed his arms and moved as far away from her as possible. \u201cAre we just not counting that because you didn\u2019t get what you wanted in the end?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It hadn\u2019t been enough, and she didn\u2019t know why it hadn\u2019t been enough. It wasn\u2019t even because he said no to sex \u2014 waiting was familiar, was normal. His anger was painful. Was that why it wasn\u2019t enough? Anger was rejection, was denial, was being unwanted.<\/p>\n

Except he\u2019d said she should come back. Could come back. It wasn\u2019t go away forever.<\/p>\n

But it \/hurt\/. The pain swelled up her throat and bent her spine into an arc backwards, sliding twitches through her muscles. Her legs trembled, and her arms, and she bit her tongue on a whimper.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony ignored the sound coming from Summer and kept watching TV. She had this idea that Tony would always want to have sex. He would happily admit that it was usually on his mind but sometimes he\u2019d rather just sit around and talk. He stood from the couch and walked into the kitchen and pulled out another beer. He drained it quickly before pulling out another and returning to the couch.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She couldn\u2019t breathe. She couldn\u2019t breathe, and she couldn\u2019t move, and her limbs wouldn\u2019t stop shaking, and Tony was oblivious. He probably thought she was faking, to get his attention. The thought cut like a blade.<\/p>\n

One spasm released her, and she dragged in a breath, and then the next was seizing her muscles, cording ligaments and tendons against her olive skin. \u201cHelp,\u201d but she wasn\u2019t sure the sound made it past her own head.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cSummer, I\u2019m not going to sit here and coddle you like a damn baby, I love and respect you too much for that.\u201d Tony said, firmly, looking back at her. \u201cIf you want to sit down and explain why you\u2019re mad at me or whatever like an adult I\u2019ll gladly listen.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She managed to catch his eyes, but he wasn’t seeing the problem. “T-Tony,” she tried again, desperate to unlock her jaw enough to say something.\u00a0And then darkness, and the convulsions taking her muscles and shaking her like a rag doll, bowing her entire body backward.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
