\u201cNot exactly the point.\u201d She scratched the base of his ears again. \u201cI\u2019m quite sure it would take you two minutes to come up with some way to keep working.\u201d She didn\u2019t say anything else for a long moment. Then, very quietly, \u201cDo you think, maybe, we could go off somewhere, just the two of us, for a couple days?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony hummed again, low and content, and shifted to fidget into a more comfortable position.\u00a0 At her question, he opened one eye to look at her again, after a moment finally saying, \u201cI guess, I don\u2019t see why not.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI thought \u2026. I kinda want to see one of your other houses, and we\u2019ve both been under a lot of stress lately.\u201d Summer pulled her hand away from his kitty ears to tuck her hair behind her ear. A strand of it got caught in her fingernails, and she jerked at it, pulling at the muscles in her stomach, which then complained bitterly. \u201cOw, fuck, ow ow, get off DAMMIT,\u201d she wailed, uncurling from Tony to try to untangle the lock of hair from her hand. \u201cHelp?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony stared at her for a moment, quietly wondering how she had even managed to do that.\u00a0 He settled Helios down on his lap, and reached over to untangle her hand from her hair, musing, \u201cVenice is nice.\u00a0 And I haven\u2019t been there in a while.\u00a0 The last attempt to suggest a trip to Venice didn\u2019t go so well, and I never really found a good time to broach it again after that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She tried to comb the fingers of the broken arm through her hair and gave up after a moment. “I should just cut it all off,” she muttered, frustrated. “Venice? Really Venice? I haven’t been out of the country since … god, years ago.” Looking at her hands in her lap, Summer added, “I hate being this helpless to even take care of myself. I can barely even brush my own hair.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
