Eventually Mary thought it was time to free herself a little more, and she reached down between them to make sure the condom didn't slip off as she moved. She collapsed onto the bed beside Much with a heavy sigh of contentment, lying on her back and reaching over to touch his stomach (because it was close enough).
She felt like she'd cheered Much up a little from when they'd first met tonight, or at least distracted him from all his troubles. Sometimes a distraction was the best you could do, and Mary knew all about that.
