"There is no way to know everything," he said softly. "We'll try to know as much as possible and then we go from there. Look, we can talk about this until we're blue in the face, but the truth is that there are too many unknowns. I can promise you that I won't make any decision until you know everything and we have time to discuss it. It's the best I can do at the moment."
Stephen nodded. "I am. I like having my way. I like it too much, and you know you'd let me in everything, not just our sex life. I know people probably think that it's the other way around, that I put up with your shit, and yeah, it was true for a while, but now... God, baby, you never say no."
He lay down and pulled Adrian with him. "Do you want to go to Midori's? And if yes, what do you see us doing? How would we act?" He turned his head to look at Adrian. "You don't have to apologise. I'm worried that I'm already pushing too much. I wasn't upset, but obviously you were. Are you all right?"
