Scorpio Rising 9
Ch 15
When I wake up they are both gone. No letter. Nothing. I get dressed finding my clothes in a heap near the bed. My head hurt from all the drinking. My eyes hurt from the sun peeking in the room. I wander to the bathroom to wash my face. Finding a bottle of mouthwash I use it. I look at myself in the mirror. Who are you? I ask myself. I look away. Finding a towel I dry my face and head down to the restaurant. Maybe they are having breakfast without me.
The elevator chimes and Marina walks out. She looks sad.
“Shane…”
“Where is Carmen?”
“She is in the lobby waiting for you.”
“So you two are close now? How was it fucking my girl?”
“You know full and well that is not how it happened.”
I look at the floor not at Marina.
“What did you talk about?”
‘We talked about you. We talked about her fear that she was not in love with you. We talked about how maybe she didn’t need you in the way that she thought, that she was only into the physical aspect of you.”
Ok. That’s new.
“You talked to Carmen about that. What else did she say?”
“She was afraid that you would find me more appealing and leave her. She spoke of feeling confused, that maybe she only cared for you because of her fleeting memories…..”
“Stop it. Just stop. I can’t fucking believe this.”
I walk into the elevator and Marina was still talking.
“………She wants to help me find my husband…this is after all why you called right Shane?”
She walks away with the posture of woman who said she felt used.
God damnit.
I hit the button for the lobby. The elevator goes down. The door chimes open. I walk out. Looking around the lobby and finding Carmen, I didn’t want to stay here longer than we had to. She sees me and heads for the door, I follow. The sun beating down on us heavy. I was so thirsty.

Loved the meaning behind that threesome. I understand why Marina was necessary for Carmen. All she’s known about is this ‘Great love/lust’ that the ‘first’ Carmen & Shane had. In her mind she’s never been with anyone else. Although there’s no doubt that Shane is the one for her, being w/ Marina helped solidify that. There hopefully shouldn’t be any more doubts about herself & Shane. These two always have some aspect of their relationship to figure out. Wonderful chap.
surprice suprice i love it lol
I knew where the dinner date was headed, but I really didn’t want it to happen. I thought for sure, if it happened, the threesome would cheapen Shane and Carmen’s relationship, make it base and superficial. In fact, as I read the beginning of this update, I though it was the beginning of the end for those two. But now, seeing that Carmen did it to learn about Shane and herself, I can see that the act didn’t tarnish their relationship like I had feared.
Another great one from you! I understand Carmen’s motive although I don’t agree with it. She was testing Shane out of her own insecurities and I think it helped Shane to understand Carmen more. These two have such a complicated relationship but theres no mistaking the intensity of their love.
Bravo! I can’t believe you can make Carmen’s cheating feel necessary. This was an important step in their relationship and you did a great job showing us the insecurites these two have and just what a toll Carmen’s memory loss has taken on this relationshop.
Bum, for the summer awards.It’s my bad I should have been more specific.
NDF! u know it and we all admit. it was an excellent chapter! i feel bad for marina tho.
Vote? What are we voting for?
