The gentle massage made Delphine's limp body begin to stir. She moaned softly, her voice hoarse from moaning all night. Still, Cosima pawed at the blonde's thighs, massaging gently.

"Baby, are you awake?" Cosima whispered.

"I didn't sleep. I'm just relaxed," Delphine yawned.

"You were snoring."

"I don't snore."

"You slept four hours, Del." At that, Delphine jumped up, her hazel eyes wide. She glanced at her phone before turning her attention to the clock hanging on the wall.

"It's impossible!"

ay

"You passed out!" Cosima chuckled, remembering the way Delphine collapsed after so many orgasms.

"Why didn't you wake me?" Delphine asked softly.

"You were so peaceful and you took your punishment like a champ."

Delphine bit her lip, remembering that it was a punishment. "It hurt you when I kissed her?" She asked softly.

"Of course it did. I'm in love with you."

"But she meant nothing," Delphine whispered softly.

"But you mean everything to me..."

"There was no romance. No connection."

"I hurt you," Cosima realized with a soft grunt.

"It doesn't matter," Delphine shook her head.

"It matters to me."

Delphine sighed, knowing Cosima was waiting for her to speak. "I just didn't expect you to move on so quickly. That's all."

"She was a rebound, Del."

"No, she wasn't. You cared for this woman."

Cosima watched the blonde glance down. She knew this expression, the way Delphine's eyes shifted as the walls she held to protect herself went back up. "How did it make you feel?" She asked. She knew the answer, but needed to keep Delphine talking if she had any chance of getting through to her.

"Not great," Delphine answered quickly.

"Talk to me," Cosima asked.

"I tried to respect your wishes. I tried to love every sister equally-"

"I didn't mean to love me equal..."

"I followed your orders, Cosima. And it wasn't enough. I wasn't enough."

"Delphine-"

"It is what it is," the blonde said, flicking away a stray tear. "My love wasn't enough and it was simpler with Shay."

"It wasn't simpler with Shay!"

"Oh, great," Delphine rolled her eyes. "It was what? Better?"

"No! No!" Cosima snapped. "She didn't know me the way you do. She didn't know anything other than the surface stuff."

"Wouldn't you prefer easier?" Delphine asked, glancing around nervously.

"No. I'm self aware. I want to talk about my sisters. I want to talk about the biology and the clones and who I really am. I want to be honest and upfront."

Delphine looked down, biting her lip. She hated feeling so small and so unsure. She knew Cosima's words. Still, she saw how carefree Cosima's life was with Shay. That had weighted heavily on her through their breakup.

"I don't want anyone else," Cosima whispered. "Simple isn't you. Easy isn't you."

"So I'm complex?" Delphine smiled, a soft burst of laughter.

"Yeah. You're like a puzzle. And I like brain teasers," Cosima whispered.

Delphine lunged forward, kissing her deeply. "I love you," she panted, her lips crashing against the brunettes again.
