"What?"
*Rochester looked at her with a sigh of relief and a tired grin.*
"Blush to match her hair?"

"Walk in on you to tell you of her latest sexual conquests," *she said. Shadi frowned thoughtfully.* "She knows something's wrong."

*Rochester stroked her hair gently.*
"Don't you worry about Alex. I'll take care of it. She knows when not to push a matter."
*He gave her a wry grin.*
"And yes, sometimes."
When we're not sharing them.

"I don't care who walks in," *she said happily.* "I don't want to be anywhere else." *She was silent a moment, then asked in a slightly awed voice,* "She was with a girl, wasn't she?"

*Rochester let out a sharp, genuine laugh.*
"I would think so. Unless I've left more of an impression that I thought."
*He stroked her cheek gently.*
"But I doubt it."

*Her eyes widened, and she didn't know whether to pursue the Alex/Rochester thing or the girl thing.*
"But... but what do they do?"

*Rochester bit his lips to suppress another laugh.*
"Well, darling...it's not all that different. Preferences are based on the couple, however...remember the first time in the barn? Yes...something like that."

"Oh," *she said, thinking about it and she smiled slyly up at him.* "That was nice."

*Rochester beamed with pride.*
"Well, I do my best."
*He kissed her forehead softly.*
"I would hate to think that it was all for my benefit."

"Nope. You could definitely do that again sometime, if you want," *she said playfully.* "But... she likes boys too, though. Like you. Like..." *She stopped herself from saying Erik or Dorian's names.*

*Rochester gave her a doubtful look.*
"It's not really like that. She's pretty sure about her preference, I think. Just makes the occasional exception. But I don't think I'd saw she was playing for both teams."

*Shadi nodded, just absorbing.*
"But you do."

*Rochester blinked, unsure of what to say. So he answered plainly, his dimple deepening.*
"But of course. I was never one to take sides. I think that everyone has something to offer. I prefer to not judge..."

*Shadi looked up at him innocently.*
"Does it bother you, my asking? I just want to know. People do so many strange things; it's confusing, sometimes, sorting it all out."
*Like walking in on your father and the man who would later take advantage of you, after meeting your father only because he agreed to take you to bed.*

"That's just because your sueauthor hates you. Or loves you too much. Either way, you're screwed."
*Rochester gave a quick dismissive shake of his head.*
"Oh no, darling, I don't mind. It's just..."
*He gave a wry smile.*
"Sometimes I forget that not everyone knows about me."
*His fingers caressed the skin of her back gently.*
"I'm happy to make any part of it make more sense. Any that I can anyways."
*He smiled softly, as if to invite more questions, should she have them.*
