Stuck Between Them

Chapter 14: Hey Darling

SARAH POV:

We were naked in Max's bed, just relaxing after doing certain activities.

The Voice: Now is the time, ask him.

"Who is your teacher?" I asked while drawing circles in his hair.

"Why are you interested in my teachers?" he turned towards me.

"Not teachers, teacher as in the teacher who taught you how fuck like that.". I clarified.

"Oh, that teacher, you are never gonna meet her.", he said in the most casual way.

I got closer to his face, "Max Summers, you underestimate me."

"Sarah Em Boone, no, I don't. Sometimes I still have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that you are my girlfriend." he kissed me on my nose.

"Let's play a harmless game called 20 questions.", I stirred away.

The Voice: let's see how much you can get out of him.

Sarah: you wait and watch.

"Ok, but nothing about you is harmless." He joked, unaware of the fact how true he was.

"How many women you had sex with before me."

"Two?"

"Have you killed anyone in the field?"

"Yes." Before it got awkward, I asked the next question.

"Why didn't you ask me how many people I have slept with?"

"Look at you. There are probably lots."

"Fair point." I agreed with him.

"Tell me something about you that would surprise me."

I have a goddamn voice in my head.

The Voice: You are a freelance assassin. Or better tell him you kissed his sister.

Sarah: or I have a voice in my head that is a massive dick.

The Voice: Like he is ever going to believe that.

"I am bisexual. At what age did you lose your virginity?" I followed with another question.

"Hold the fuck back. How did I not know that!" Max sat up.

"It never came up, I'm straight, but I do enjoy female company if I feel like it," I explained.

Max fell back again. "Damn, now I also have to look out for women checking out my girlfriend."

I chuckled, "It's not like that, and you know it, I am basically straight, but I don't mind female company. Now answer my question."

"That's firkin wild. I'm a late bloomer, at 18. How many times have you been shot?"

"Enough times that I have to count, how old she was when she took your virginity."

"Early thirties, I guess."

"Fuck Max, you never cease to amaze me. Please tell me the second one was actually a girl your age."

Seeing his goofy smile, I spoke again.

"How old Max!" I demanded,

He made a face that told me he was calculating.

"Thirty-nine."

"Max, you were landing women double your age at 18. I am 36..... wait a minute, was it your high school teachers?"

"I wish, but no, none of them were my high school teachers."
