It was another three weeks before the next program was ready, and they had been rough ones. Cassie remembered what had happened, but Dave was certain that she didn’t know the *why* of what had happened. All she knew was that she’d been horny enough to settle for Dave, and though they never spoke of the event a few beatings by Clarence for made up reasons made her thoughts on the matter clear. It was over, he was not to speak of it, and approaching the subject (or her) ever again would result in a lot worse than a beating.
He took it all, spent his nights with an ice pack over his black eye and fingers moving rapidly over the keyboard. That first night had been a whim, a test run for something he wanted to work but didn’t quite believe really would. Now he had a plan, and a goal. A beautiful, amazing goal. Unfortunately the full realization of it would need to wait until he’d done more testing, and that meant waiting for the right opportunity.
