Adam
Speed up to the precipice and then slam on the brakes
Some people crash two or three times and then learn from their mistakes
When Pet finally did speak, he didn't really know what to say, Adam now pretty confused himself, but he tried to comfort what he thought was there: "It's not. I love you Pet. So much..I don't want you to worry about that, okay? I love you so much I feel a little crazy with it sometimes. I'm not...I'm not leaving or anything. I don't think I could." He squeezed his husband with the arm he had around him, hoping that those words sunk in.
He tapped his fingers on the blanket as he tried to come up with a good answer to the question. "..How about...I guess...okay. What I'm asking, when it really comes down to it, right, is if you'd mind if I fucked other people every now and then. Obviously, you're welcome to do the same - hell, maybe we do some of it together." Adam winked and tried to nudge Pet, though it was halfhearted; he knew it was unlikely he'd agree to that. "We'd still be together, and in love, and all of it...just...I dunno. Not exclusive for all of that. How would you feel about that?"
We are the ones who don't slow down at all
And there's nobody there to catch us when we fall
