It had been two weeks since the orgy at Liz's place, and Jim was only just getting all the feeling back into his legs. After the other girls had left, Jim and Liz had fucked each other senseless almost the entire three days, stopping only to eat, use the bathroom, and sleep. Liz had been letting him rest and hadn't tried to get him to have sex again just yet. He had worried about Liz getting pregnant after their multiple romps, but she had apparently started taking birth control well in advance of the orgy.
He was heading to the gym like he always did on his Fridays, and as he rounded the corner and could see the front desk, he saw Liz talking to someone. He could tell it was a spliced, but he wasn't sure with what. They were talking normal from what he could tell, but then he saw Liz grab a piece of paper and write something down before handing it to him. By now Jim had reached the door and was walking in, and the man was waving farewell and heading out.
Once he had turned, Jim got a shock. The man was a shark spliced, with no hair and light leathery looking skin. His face tapered into a point for a nose, much like how an actual shark looked, and Jim could see a few slits for gills just around his shirt collar. He was incredibly muscular, and Jim was sure that if he flexed hard enough, his shirt would likely explode into bits of cloth. He was physically intimidating, but he seemed perfectly calm despite all that, and gave off a vibe of going with the motion of the ocean.
As they passed each other, Jim turned his attention to Liz, who was waving to the shark spliced and then was all smiles when she saw Jim coming in.
"Hey sweet lips. Ready for a good workout today?" she said with her usual playfulness.
"I suppose" Jim said quietly.
Liz's nose twitched at his response, and she started to look at him worriedly.
"What's wrong?" she asked?
"Who was that guy? I've never seen him before."
"Oh, Carter? He's new in town and was asking about stuff in the local area. Why?"
"I saw you give him something."
Liz cocked her head for a second, and then a wily grin crossed her face as she looked at Jim.
"Why Jim, I do believe you sound a bit jealous. You worried that I gave him my number so we can hook up later?"
Jim blushes, but it's not just embarrassment causing his face to get red.
"Is that why you haven't wanted to have sex since the...party...you had? You're hooking up with other guys at the gym again?"
Liz suddenly went from coy to worried, realizing that Jim was genuinely upset.
"Jim, you know as well as I do that I love you. I didn't just say it in the heat of the moment, and I'm not about to hook up with some random guy I only just met today. The thing I gave him was Sam's name and number because he asked if I knew a masseuse that was okay with working on shark spliced since they have such rough skin."
