"I know what Jenga is," he said, chuckling. "And I guess it's as good of an analogy as any. We have plenty of things we need to stop as well, things I can't tell you about. you already know more than you proably should, especially if ou ever end up in our dimension, but at least there's a battle plan this time around."
There might have been a fleeting satisfied smile on his face. Just might have. However, his interest was directed on what he was doing more than any satisfaction that he was reading the situation right. "The stories feel too foreign, too wrong, too...." He shook his head. "It's not me, Nell. I can never go back and be that person who had dreams. Honestly, I don't want to, because it doesn't do anything other than point out all that we've lost because of damn machines. I don't want dream, but reality." He dipped his head ad locked their lips together, while he pushed the bra aside, freeing her breast for better access, pinching it and teasing it, feeling the nub harden. This was real, this was better than dreams that would never be fulfilled.
He shifted as he left a trail of kisses on Nell's jaw and down her neck. "You'd be bored more than me," he whispered. "You want the challenge. You don't want people just to take your word for it, but you want them to make you work for it. You'd have made a good agent." These were probably not the discussion to have while kissing and fondling someone, talking about work while nipping and biting warm skin. Derek had never said that his idea of a date was a normal one, though.
"A show were machines destroy humans and their planet? I think I'll pass." Then he was laughing. "I think we're proof that you can have sex and not have a kid. Fuck, plenty of people in the resistance proved that. Maybe we should stop worry about the future and we can prove just how possible it is to have sex with no kids. That might require you to shut up a little. Just a little." He was not going to discuss machine and the war while fucking. Other than that, she could still ramble on if she could. "You can still tell me how amazing I am."
