Sometimes, Tommy really wonders what he gets himself into, usually seconds after committing to it.
He doesn't regret this, though. He'll stick to it. For as long as he can. Or for as long as she wants him around. Whichever comes first.
When she sits up, he lays there for a moment, his gaze fixed on her back. Her hair falling between her shoulder blades. The graceful slope of her spine. The curve of her hips.
Sitting up himself, he pulls aside the covers on his side of the bed just enough for him to scoot under and lie back down.
"Just Voodoo," he sighs, folding one arm behind his head. "Uh. And I sorta mentioned you to Elrond, 'cause I told him we went to that wedding, but I didn't actually say we were-- uh, together, 'cause that conversation got a little awkward 'cause it was like I was talking to your dad or something and I got really nervous for some reason, so-- uh. Yeah. Oh, and a woman from around my time named Clementine, but I never said your name, only that I was-- y'know, with you, 'cause me and Clem used to-- uh, fool around, and I just wanted to make it clear that I couldn't do that anymore, but she's a really cool chick for a cop, so there was no hard feelings or whatever. Besides, I think she likes someone else anyways."
