[TM] 199 - Mistake

Oct 18, 2007 17:37

We've erred. Draw it back. Rewrite over it. It will all correct itself eventually. It's in the programming.

Waking up she knows. With every fiber of what she was before this moment she knows that this is not who she was... but perhaps who they intended her to be. Strong hands run through shorter hair and across stubble covered features. Her new mouth draws into a thin line and smirks up in the corner as the doubt consumes her.

She'd failed them before... and this was never the solution. Yet here 'he' is now. No more do her slender legs brush against silken sheets like they did before, now there is a slight resistance and a bit more bulk beneath the sheets... in some places that she would be familiar with intimately... just not on her own form.

The sigh that slips from vocal chords is deeper and more exhausted. It's not just a new form... it's a new person.

It's their solution to her mistakes, and they just have to hope that as a man... as a male employed by the firm and created by the Partners that he'll be as cold and careless as many of their other lawyers. Sleeping through the steno pool and never letting love tear into those small parts of the liaison that had Eve had allowed before. They hope that the strong jawline and the coy smile will entrance the women into a thrall, but that he'll push them out of his bed at the end of the night. They wish that this new liaison... the improved version won't let emotions and silly things like love get in the way.

They know they should have done this the first time around... but she had been so cute... they almost couldn't resist her.
