    Summary

    It’s like playing dress up, like they used to, because Vi wouldn’t ever. She strips him past his jacket to a tank top and pants and she traces the contractions of muscle under his arms where veins travel and converge with paint on her fingers.

    Ekko’s skin is more warm and alive than hers is anymore.

    For her he leaves splotches and swirls of paint all over. Arms, legs, chest, back. Into her side he sears a huge blue star. The pink under her cheeks count as another encounter with closeness and his eyes again. Only a small amount of it is rubbed away by a sweaty fist and laughter.

    She stands with both arms out, “Are you trying to mark me?”

    Summary

    “We had a deal, didn’t we? I stay out of your business; you stay out of mine.”

    “Nina,” Matthias says lightly, “I’m just here for the game.”

    He wants to take the words back the moment they leave his mouth, but it’s too late. Nina looks back at him again, and he wishes she didn’t, because the look on her face makes him want to put his face into the mop bucket and drink.

    “Right,” she says slowly. “Just a game.”
