Seeing Red - Part II

ii.

They met Adam Monroe. Peter thought that Adam died years ago after the original twelve villains escaped from Level 5. He was suspicious of Adam’s intentions from the start but Claire was immediately taken with him.

Peter wasn’t sure whether it was because he knew the Company’s history or something else but Claire relied more on Adam to tell her everything that she needed to know about the Company.

Together, the three of them took over the old Odessa facility. She was so excited, her face lit up and she even winked at Peter, hinting that they would later christen the facility in private.

And they did, later that night in one of the Company cells, unaware that the video surveillance was still active.

Peter didn’t know about the tape until Adam came to him later and handed it to him. He said that he enjoyed some of it, especially the parts where there good shots of Claire on top, bouncing up and down. Peter punched him and shoved him against a wall, threatening him to stay away from Claire.

Adam grinned, promising that he would and gave Peter the tape without further argument.

Peter took the tape and viewed it in an empty office before destroying it. He had stopped being ashamed of his relationship with Claire a long time ago but watching the tape, reminded him of that nasty word that he fought hard to forget about.

He never mentioned the tape to Claire.

~~

Claire liked staying inside of the facility and playing with the many devices that she found; the facility used to scare her but the ghosts that haunted it were long gone now, buried with the past and she preferred it that way. One day while Peter was out tracking a suspected murderer, Claire thought that she was alone.

Adam was always wandering around in shadows, watching her. It had been months since the sex tape Claire still didn’t know about but now Adam’s presence was starting to grow on her.

“You’re not with Peter,” she noted, looking away from him as he entered.

“Neither are you,” he mused. “I know about the two of you.”

Claire grinned, turning to him. “I know that you do,” she teased. “I’m not ashamed of us. Peter loves me so much and I love him. Always have,”

He smiled to himself, coming over to her. “Do you know that I saw the two of you having sex?” he countered, leaning into her. “Right here, fucking over and over…”

She slapped him hard across the face, glaring at him. “Fuck you, Adam!” she snarled turning to leave but Adam grabbed her arm, staring into her eyes before she kissed him passionately. The attraction had been building up for months now, the long stares between them and flirting right in front of Peter.

Claire forced him onto the examining table, taking off his pants and shirt, discarding her leather pants and black top. Claire didn’t waste any time, straddling his body and taking him into her. Adam grinned and laughed, watching her build up a fast rhythm. He wanted this so badly, feeling the burn between them. Even before meeting her, he dreamed about what she would be like.

Adam continued to grin, remembering that tape of Peter and Claire in this same position, only this time it wasn’t Peter on the receiving end. This moment was inevitable in his mind; he knew from the moment he had met Claire and learning that she could heal like him that it was only a matter of time before she ended up in his bed...or on a cold autopsy table.

Finally, Peter wasn’t the only one fucking the former cheerleader.

~~

Peter came back later that night to find the two of them talking playfully with each other. Claire smiled at him, jumping into his arms and kissing him in front of Adam. Her eyes sparkled in a way Peter hadn’t seen before.

She was so beautiful. Peter wanted to kiss her but Adam’s blue eyes watching him stopped him. Instead, he said that he needed to rest, glaring at Adam before excusing himself, leaving them alone.

Claire was disappointed and confused but Adam was there, snaking his hand around her waist. Claire told him that she wanted to be alone and he obliged but later that night, after she had spent time crying, she found him again and they had sex.

The dance began.

~~

Peter and Claire took turns hunting and tracking. When Claire was feeling cooped up, she would grab her gun and whatever other weapons she could fit into her pants and took off. Sometimes Adam would come with her though Peter didn’t like it when he did; Claire was always easily distracted when Adam was around.

He especially hated it when Adam and Claire would be gone for hours but Peter hated it when they were gone for more than a few days because that’s when the paranoia would creep up on him: paranoia that they weren’t tracking villains but sleeping together behind his back.

He would see images in his mind of Claire fucking Adam. It made his skin crawl imagining Adam touching Claire, her hands upon him, his eyes upon her naked body…

Just when Peter thought that he would crack, Adam and Claire would come back, looking innocent. Their excuses for being away were always different, but often clever. As much as Peter wanted to yell at Adam for sleeping with his girl behind his back, something always held him back.

It was Claire. It was the way she’d kiss him, her eyes promising him that there was nothing going on between her and Adam. Peter forced himself to believe her because the last thing he wanted was for that darker side of him to come out and hurt her.

Never in all the years that they had been together, had Peter ever struck or physically hurt Claire. She was precious to him, he loved her and he convinced himself that if there was something going on between Adam and Claire, it was nothing more than a fling.

Not love.
