:::She suddenly moved by his sadness:::
where is it...? :::she hovers over it, looking at it closely:::
I don't see where...

*Alex slid in and kissed Cora gently*
There. It feels all better now. You're a real sweetheart, Cora, you know that? It's hardly a wonder I love you.

oh!
:::she was a bit surprised at the kiss, and couldn't help but smile gleefully...but it the expression flicked off suddenly when Cora remembered how worried she was about him:::
Has this happened to you before, Alex? Are you going to report it to the authorities?

*Alex shook his head*
Yeah. Its happened a couple times before. A guy doing well for himself is a prime target when he walks through the poor side of town. I... I'll call the cops when I get back home. I have some pictures in my wallet that are very dear to me. I should call and cancel the credit cards too.

:::Cora sighs and keeps working on the other cuts and bruises:::
I can't believe such terrible crime ran so rampant at one point... I mean, I knew of it, but to I never thought I'd ever have to see such a thing... Alex, you need to do something about this. You can't let this happen again.

Well, I do what I can, babe. I go down there every month or so to provide legal aid to the poor and homeless. I donate to Humanitarian charities.. I really can't think of what else I might do... Besides, if people are desperate enough to mug me, they must need help.

:::Cora finishes up the last little cut on his neck, and she sighs as she puts away all her medical tools. She stands up and looks down at Alex in his chair:::
You should be lying down, Alex. I should take you to your room...

*Alex took her hand and grinned devilishly*
Well, I've never had sex with a broken rib before, but I guess there's a first for everything. Even for me.

:::she blushed feverishly:::
Alex...! I don't really think you can... I mean... that bone needs to heal, and it certainly won't unless you keep still.
:::she pauses a moment to think about it:::
You didn't even take the pain inhibitors...

Pleasure and pain, baby. They often go hand in hand. Come on.
*Alex stands up, clutching his side*
Shall we make our way to the Room of Love?

:::She steadied her hand, and with her strength it was as good as propping yourself on a table:::
Right... up now.
:::she waited till he was all the way standing:::
How can pleasure and pain be simultanious... doesn't one sort of signifiy the other's abscence?

Not necessarily.

Oh, shoot. We'll need that key.
