Tell me about a story I haven't written yet, and I will give you between one and three sentences a paragraph (who are we kidding, I suck at brevity) from that story.
Because
lowriseflare told me to, and she is a lady who gets what she wants. But mostly because MY GOD, LONG TIME NO SEE, LJ, I'M NOT DEAD, ETC.

When Sam first says, "Let's go," there are a good thirty seconds where Andy is absolutely positive he means go back inside. Because hello, questionable tryst with her undercover superior officer? Kind of screams rent-by-the-hour rooms. She's actually heading towards the main entrance when Sam catches her hand, slowing her progress with a "Hey".
Hey is for horses, Andy thinks out of nowhere, something her mother used to say when she was real little. "Um. Don't you want--?" She breaks off helplessly, a weird head nod that's supposed to mean something along the lines of screw me on some questionable bedsheets. It's the best she can do, under the circumstances. Being shot down once has made her gun-shy.
Sam just looks back at her, steady. His palm is warm straight through her glove. "Not here, McNally," is all he says.
He holds her hand all the way to the car.

"Sorry," Missy says between takes, both of them taking turns sipping from the same water bottle. They have to leave it outside of the shot, way on the other side of the set. Missy keeps putting her shirt back on to go get it; Ben doesn't. "My mouth probably tastes like ass now." It's been a long day--a long day of fake making out, god--and her tongue is starting to feel fuzzy.
"It doesn't," Ben says mildly, and for some reason Missy believes him.

Thank you!! That was great! My favourite line? "Ben doesn't". Hahaha. Maybe he's aware that she's been looking ;) Glad you're back posting!

They tell the kids Daddy got in a little fender bender. Elizabeth's hands shake for a week.

Phillip thinks it's him, at first, when the orders come down for them to have a child; Elizabeth always turns her head to the side and tells him to hurry up. She never fakes it, which Phillip starts off appreciating and eventually grows to resent (she could try, Jesus, since after all he's the one who has to--). But Phillip knows what it's like, having the KGB own your entire body, so he always finishes himself as quickly as possible. He makes love like a man trying not to upset a cup of tea.
Once, though--once they're fighting and they go to bed fighting and Elizabeth swears at him, American swear words, telling him to stick it in because it's the right time, the right part of the month, only when Phillip finally does it feels different, she feels different, and he notices for the first time they way she's holding herself so stiff and still, like she's trying not to ( ... )
