"Everett..."
"Everett... Everett..."
The man's muscles tensed over her, but he couldn't hold back any longer, bending down to capture her lips, silencing any plea for mercy.
"You asked for this. You've got to endure it."
"Mmm..."
Dorothy felt his lips burning against hers, sealing her off completely.
By the time it was over, all she could vaguely remember was Everett carrying her into the bathroom to clean up, and then... everything went black.
What she didn't know was that, after taking care of her, Everett had to take two cold showers just to calm himself down.
...
The next morning, as soon as Dorothy opened her eyes, she felt every bone in her body screaming in soreness. She tried to sit up, supported by her arms, and was greeted by the smell of freshly brewed coffee and pancakes.
It had been so long since she felt this cozy, family atmosphere.
Pushing the bedroom door open, she saw Everett lifting their daughter into a high chair at the dining table, whispering, "Mommy's still sleeping, let's keep it down, okay?"
"Okay!" Abigail nodded vigorously, her finger pressed to her lips in a hushing gesture.
Everett stroked her hair, then looked up to see Dorothy.
"Awake, huh? Perfect timing. Come have breakfast."
"Mommy!" Abigail shouted upon seeing her, immediately wanting to get down from her chair.
She looked up to meet his gaze.
"Let's eat." Everett said with a smile.
"Yeah." Dorothy nodded, then suddenly remembered something, "Oh, did Dr. Quincy have something for you? You came back so late last night, I didn't ask. I didn't want to seem distrustful."
"It's nothing major, just something about your treatment." Everett gave a vague answer, not exactly lying.
"Dr. Quincy must be busy, and you went out of your way to call her back for my treatment?" Dorothy's voice fell, "Everett, I don't want to be a burden to anyone. Look at me, I'm much better now. Let's not bother Dr. Quincy with my treatment anymore."
For some reason, she now felt... uncomfortable with the idea of Quincy and Everett in contact.
Even though she knew very well that Everett had no other intentions with Quincy besides her treatment, she still felt somehow uneasy.
She couldn't control her jealousy.

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
