"Oh good, because that does make things much easier," she said teasingly. Alastor had be be blind and deaf not to know that she was stubborn, but then he was just as bad when he wanted.
Marlene laughed. "Yes, I can see how kicking Potter to the curb would work in your favour. Besides, I can deal with you in charge of the Order. You in charge at work is a completely different thing." She bit her lip, thinking, and then nodded. "It makes sense. Patrol always knew all the gossip, and he's got the Aurors covered with me, Emm and Kings. It's a smart move. You'll do a good job, too. You might get bored, but you can do a great job."
She laced her fingers behind his neck and kissed him. "You have me, Alastor. I think we've established that. It's everything else that's a little fuzzy. I understand that you aren't asking me to change, but I want to know what makes you uncomfortable, what's too much. How would you feel if I were with another man? Or a woman? What about a threesome with said man or woman? I know you don't like to talk about sex like this, but I need to know how you feel and then I'll make my choices."
