Though the last ‘encounter’ hadn’t gone as planned, there’s still a bit of hope that Amber isn’t a complete lost cause. Since the challenge of getting the blonde in bed would theoretically be easy enough, it’s a question of whether the girl’s worth the effort it would take. Weeks go by while he debates, going back and forth on the idea until the fifth Sunday comes around. With Remy watching surreptitiously from the other side of the sanctuary, a seemingly accidental flash of thigh when sliding into a pew makes the decision easy. There should be a bruise marring the paleness of her inner thigh by now from his teeth sinking in; that modest skirt should be wrinkled from being pushed upwards to give himself something to hold onto while his other hand splayed across her mid-back to keep her face-down on his table as he fucked her; that woman should be his property by now. And yet, she isn’t--but she could be. 

Once the service is over, he heads out the door to bide his time as a plan is formed. Both hands are tucked into the pockets of his suit jacket while the man leans against the wall as the perfect picture of innocence while he bids goodbye to every person that leaves, but the moment the girl comes out the door, the act is dropped. Fingers loop none-too-gently around her wrist while he starts walking, tugging Amber along until they’re around the corner and away from an audience.  Only then does he release his grip, though the lack of touch doesn’t last long Remy’s hand wraps around her shoulder to keep the woman’s back against the brick wall. “We need to talk. Seeing you every week and not having you near is killing me, and it is not fair to either one of us to pretend as though nothing happened, non? It hurts me because... because tu me manques.”

Remy: There is a customer at my work who mentioned your name.

Contrary to how most people are, the only time Jude allows himself to relax is at work. Surrounded by boys as broken as he is, it’s easy to know how to behave around them. Jude doesn’t shield himself nearly as much as he does with other people, knowing that the best way to earn trust from the boys is to show he’s been in their position. The only exception is the volunteers who came and went at various times; Jude never bothering to get to know one too well since they tended to flee after just a few visits. But there’s one who has stayed longer than the rest; one whom the boys happen to fall all over themselves for since not only is she pretty, but she has the compassion most other volunteers have lacked. As co-owner of the home, it only seems fair that he should reward one of the only people who has been able to earn the trust of those who don’t trust easily.

Of all the times for Amber to show up unannounced, this moment ranks up there amongst the worst possible.The cocaine buzzing in his blood sets his heart racing and has his head slightly fuzzy, though he’s still completely aware of how fucked he is. Due to the drug making him feel far too warm, all he’s wearing is a thin pair of sleep pants that--without him even realizing it--already hang far too low and display his hipbones, and it suddenly doesn’t seem like enough of a barrier from the girl. As far as he knows, Amber doesn’t even know he does drugs, so he has to tread carefully in front of the good girl until he can get her to leave. But she must take his hesitation of a greeting for acceptance, and he can only watch helplessly as she glides into the walkway. 

Remy: Did you know that you are really, really pretty?
