Thread: Change in Plans (AlureNova and Minderbinder)

Never. That was Alice's answer to the woman's question. Once she finally ended up tying the knot with Liam, the young lady was well-aware that she'd never get an opportunity to pursue such an opportunity. It was a temporary reprieve, a chance to relax for the first time in what felt like months. Even still, her stomach squirmed as the idea wriggled its way into her mind. Alice never thought of herself as a 'bad' person. Sure, she occasionally overstepped her bounds on occasion, she was hardly a pillar of morality, but it was never anything incredibly serious. But this? Oh, this was most certainly serious. Her breathing continued to come out at a hurried pace, forehead slick as looked towards the woman with blank eyes. Whether or not she loved Liam as much as she told herself, Alice knew that this whole thing was wrong regardless. She was betraying his trust, and with a random woman who she'd known for a whole twenty minutes. Even if she never saw the woman again after this night, Alice was well aware that she was never going to be able to forget it. She was never going to be able to forgive herself. Her hands trembled as they feel across the wheel, the girl not even bothering to pull away as Sera's hand gently fell across her arm. Her breathing still ragged, Alice slowly turned her head, letting her eyes meet Sera's once again. One night, She spoke, voice nearly a mumble, Just one night, The engine roared to life, and with a bit of reversing the pair were back on the road. It getting dark now, the soft glow of the town able to be seen just barely over the horizon. Alice didn't mutter a single word as she drove them towards the town, hands still shaking ever so slightly as she tried to keep her eyes upon the road. She'd agreed. She'd actually agreed to the idea of cheating on her fiance. The mere thought gnawed at her, the girl becoming even more ghostly. Alice was almost tempted to take back what she said, and even more morbid part of her almost wanted to just ditch the woman here and now. Out of sight, and out of mind. But, she didn't. Despite what she thought, Alice could feel herself craving even more of the woman's touch. For once, she wanted to be the selfish one. Within minutes, they'd enter the town. The streets were, surprisingly enough, mostly empty. Most of the people were probably eating dinner, or maybe they just decided to turn in for the night. Not like Alice minded, she wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone. Keeping a steady grip on the wheel, she'd slowly cruise down the narrow streets, passing by the mom and pop stores as she mentally tried to recall the directions to the hotel. Being the only one in town, it didn't take long to stumble across. It was a fairly small place, cozy as well. Wedged between tiny convenience store a diner, it seemed more like an apartment block than anything. Regardless, Alice wasn't going to be picky. She knew that the size of the rooms was going to be the last thing she cared about come tonight. Gently winding her way into the parking lot, the young lady picked a spot. With a twist of the keys, the engine died and Alice's eyes finally fell back across Sera. Well, um, here we are...
