Admin Yellow 26, Fish Blue 8, Sphene 14: Don't
Author: Kat
Title: Don't
Story: In the Heart
Colors: Admin yellow 26 (The higher up you go the harder it is to tell the good guys from the bad guys.), fish blue 8 (Elephantnose fish), sphene 14 (Hardness)
Supplies and Materials: Graffiti (Lilith Fair Main Stage: Crooked Crown, Bonnie Raitt, seed beads, canvas, brush (chicane), oils (ignoring the apocalypse), stain (Politics is not the art of the possible. It consists in choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable. - John Kenneth Galbraith), beading wire (free fall), novelty beads ("To while away—forbidden things—/My heart would feel to be a crime" -- Poe)
Word Count: 200
Rating: PG
Summary: Two sides of the same coin.
Warnings: adultery.
Notes: So apparently Zack's mother is a politician. News to me.
She can't look down.
Lorraine knows in the back of her mind that what she's doing is wrong. Adam is married, no matter how unhappily, and she knows the stories-- they never actually leave their wives. But she loves him, oh, she loves him, and she's never been so happy as she is with him, laughing or watching TV or in bed, moving together.
She can't look down, because if she does she will see his wallet on the floor, the pictures of his wife and children. So she doesn't.
If she just keeps going, everything will be all right.

Elizabeth knows Adam is cheating.
He's not nearly as clever as he thinks he is, and she knows he's cheating. Mysterious trips, working late all the time, the disappearance of his cell phone when he'd always left it lying around before: he's cheating.
She could confront him, but they have children, and a divorce wouldn't look good to her constituents. As long as he's careful in public, she can go on pretending she doesn't know. He can have his other woman. Elizabeth wishes her joy of him-- he's terrible in bed.
She knows he's cheating. She pretends she doesn't care.
