Fic: Intimacy
Fandom: Life
Rated: G
Charlie understands screwing. He understands armfuls of Heather, Lydia, Debbie. After prison any guy would understand.
The things he's more fuzzy about are the small touches, the emotional reaching, the way his ex-wife's lips feel when they tentatively slide over his.
It's too nuanced, too-- much.
Commitment isn't an issue. He does commitment in his sleep; the concept of adultery, disloyalty isn't something he can grasp.
It's the bizarre inbetween that gets to him. Makes him shiver and want. It's a lot less control than he'd like. It makes him a lot less sure of what to do, aside from take what he's offered.
