“Contractual Obligations” by shaenie
First read: 03.03.2010
It’s not that I didn’t like it but the plot was a mess and there was too much sex, even though it was constantly interrupted by profound conversation but since it had already been decided there was to be sex and a relationship the conversation felt, if not pointless, mistimed. If it hadn’t been 40.000 words, though, I might have liked well enough.
♥ "Don't lie to protect my feelings. I'm a big girl, and it's not your job to decide how I feel."
♥ "Neal," Peter says. "If you thought it would put her in danger in any way, shape or form, would you tell Elizabeth where to find the big pile of money and stolen goods that I have no evidence exists?"
"No," Neal admits, and wincingly anticipates the follow-up question.
"Would you tell me?"
"Shit, Peter," Neal says.
"Exactly," Peter says. "We will lie to protect each other. We will all lie, and we will lie to each other if necessary. We have to trust each other to know when to lie, to know when to tell the truth, and to know that if you don't know what to do, you spill everything. Elizabeth will not tell me things, you will not tell Elizabeth things, I will probably not tell both of you things. We all have to know this will happen. Don't lie to us if you can help it, but we trust you to decide if it's necessary."
