“What does that mean?” I asked as he pushed his hard erection into me again. I moaned again at the friction.
“Just that I will find a more private ending to the night next time.”
“Oh really,” I said with a sarcastic air. “What makes you think there will be a next time.”
He pushed against me again and I arched my back. He kissed me hard and deep.
“Trust me, I am not going to last long without seeing you again,” he responded.
He released his hold on my ass and let me slid back easily down to the ground. Taking a step back from me he put some air between us. It was a good idea because in that moment my resolve was significantly dropping.
“As long as what happened last time doesn’t play out,” I said mostly to myself, “then I think I just might be gamer a repeat.”
“Don’t worry, Lilly,” he replied reaching down and kissing the upturned palm of my hand held in his own. “I know where you live now,” he motioned to my door, “so there is no escaping me this time.”

Barrett
The next few days continued on better than the first few months I had spent back stateside. Before, work and life seemed such a drudgery and very bland after the adventures and excitement I had experienced with the red cross.
Now each day I had something to look forward to. Any chance or excuse I could think of, I would use to text Lilly. The more I got to know her the less I could believe I let her slip through my fingers the first time around.
“Hey, I was thinking this weekend I take you back to the place where it all started?” I texted the following Thursday afternoon.
“I told you, the club isn't there any more. They tore it down and built an animal shelter instead.”
“I’m not picky,” I replied with a wicked smile on my face.
“There are parts of you that I would call animalistic, so maybe it would suit you better.”
I chuckled to myself. Lilly had no idea how much I wanted to be animalistic with her right that second.
“What would suit me is anywhere I can get you alone. Say you will meet me Saturday night?”
I waited impatiently for Lilly’s response. At this point I wasn’t even sure I could make it to Saturday without seeing her again. At the same time I knew with Aria, she would need time to get a sitter.
I would have rather liked go to her house and meet the girl that could possibly be my child. She kept much of what she said about Aria limited. I had a feeling she was still shielding her from me.
It made sense even if she wasn’t trying to hid the fact that Aria was mine. For a single mom, her number one priority would be to shield her daughter from men coming in and out of their life.
“I can’t on Saturday,” she finally responded back as the day was winding down.
I had just finished my last patient for the day. I was overly disappointed at the answer.
“Aria has a dance recital that night,” she added.
I breathed a sigh of relief. At least it wasn’t because she didn’t want to see me again.
“Then Friday night. The sooner I get my hands around that little ass of yours again the better,” I responded.
She texted back right away this time.
“Okay.”
I should have been satisfied with knowing that I would see her in twenty-four hours time but I wasn’t.
“What are you doing right now?”
I looked at my own watch. It was still pretty early in the afternoon. Days like this when the last patient was before the end of the work day I usually just spent the extra time catching up on paperwork. It wouldn’t be hard to slip out now though if I could.
“I am at work, of course,” she replied. “Been working on this Bakery ad all morning. Think I am going cross-eyed from it.”
“Sounds like you could use a break? I know a scientifically proven way to improve productivity.”
“Is it also a way to release pre-exam stress?”
“What? No!” I lied “I only meant I could bring you some coffee to help get your energy up.”
“I don’t needed coffee delivered, its already available here in my office. Plus aren’t you busy being Dr. Dreamy?”
“Done with my patients for the day. All these appointments have made me hunger for a very particular type of doctors visit.”
“I am feeling a little under the weather. Maybe you should stop by, just to check and make sure I’m not coming down with anything.”
I smiled in satisfaction at her words.
“Well, I did take an oath to help any one in need. I guess that means it’s my duty to make sure you’re alright.”
“Good, then you got twenty minutes to get here. I have a four o’clock meeting I can't miss.”
I didn’t respond. It was the green light I was looking for. I slipped out my lab coat and blew past the door just as Helen was about to come in.
“You seem to be going somewhere in a hurry,” she said surprised by my rush.
“Uh, yeah. Emergency. I’m going to take off early for the rest of the day.”
“Is everything alright? I would love to help,” she added pouting her lips at me.
“No, thanks but I’ll be fine.”
There was no way in hell that Helen was going to be able to help with this problem. I was throbbing at the thought of Lilly and only had a mind to slip between her pair of fine milky thighs.

Lilly
I couldn’t believe what I had done. Flirting back and forth between text was one thing, but inviting Barrett to my office for an afternoon delight? I was pretty sure I was so deprived it was making me delirious.
I knew he was already on his way when he didn’t text back. I thought I better run to the ladies room and do my best to freshen up. I had never done something like this before, I had no idea how it was suppose to go.
All I did know was since our night out together, my mind and body had been able to shake anything but the feel of his hands on my body. I was starving for his touch again.
I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror. I was wearing that flirty floral skirt with top and cardigan that had been rejected by Emma as date appropriate. Hopefully it would be office sex acceptable.
I got back to my office just in time for the receptionist to phone in.
“Um, there is someone here to see you,” she said with an edge to her voice.
"Yes, I’m expecting him. Go ahead and send him in. Hold my calls too, please,” I added.
I felt so embarrassed say it. Surely she would know a hot stranger walking into my office and asking for privacy all at the same time probably added up to something nefarious.
I leaned against my desk facing the door while I waited for Barrett to show up. It was a short walk from the main receptionist desk to my door. He knocked softly once but didn’t wait for me to answer.
When he walked into the room my breath instantly caught in my throat. He slipped in silently but I still almost hear the rippling of his muscles as he moved. His white shirt seemed to be pulling so tight as to tear against his arms.
He shut the door behind him and I heard the soft click of the lock. I bit my lip full of anticipation.
He slowly stalked his way over to me. I watched his hands and forearms as he rubbed them together looking over my body. He had rolled his shirt sleeves up exposing his skin. I couldn’t believe that even the sight of his forearms was getting me crazy wet.
“Hi,” Barrett said softly as he came to stand before me.
I looked up into his eyes and swallowed hard. I wanted to say something back but I had completely lost my voice. He didn’t seem to mind though. Reaching, he took one lock of my hair and ran his hand through it.
Even though I couldn’t feel the touch on my body it still made me ache. I couldn’t wait any longer. Standing on my toes I reached up and wrapped my arms around him. I enveloped him in my kiss and he let me.
In an instant his hands went to
my hips and lifted me up on the desk. I spread my legs for him willingly. I heard the soft plops as I let my ballet slipper flats fall to the ground.
“Oh, wait,” he said pulling back from me. “I have something I wanted to give you.”
He didn’t move away from me and I kept my arms around his shoulders as he reached behind him into his pants pocket.
“It took me a minute to dig it out of all my packed stuff,” he put his had forward and showed me a crumpled up handful of lace.
I looked at it confused before realization had dawned on me.
“I figured I should give them back,” Barrett said with a sly smile.
I took my underwear from his hand and threw it on the desk behind me.
“I had always wondered what happened to these after that night. You kept them all this time?” I asked a little surprise.
“It was a night I didn’t want to forget.”
“That is either really hot, or really creepy,” I laughed as I let my fingers run along the short hair along the nape of his neck.
“Baby, right now I am fine with either,” he said before taking my mouth again.
I was enveloped in the heat of his touch. His hands seemed to move like magic all over my body. He was everywhere and not near enough places all at the same time.
“I’m going to fuck you hard right here on your desk,” he moaned against my throat.
“Yes,” I encouraged him.
I felt the buttons of my sweater pop off. Slipping it off my shoulders he tossed it on the ground. He was kissing along my collarbone and shoulders now. It was all together too tantalizing.
I reached to the zipper of his pants and stroked my hands against his hard shaft. Reaching for my shirt, he quickly slipped that up and off as well. In nothing but my bra and skirt he laid me back down on top of my desk.
I watched as he stood to his full height looking down at me and slowly removed his tie and top button of his shirt. I wanted him to take off more, but he didn’t. Instead he came down on his knees in front of me.
Spreading my legs with his large hands he watched my eyes. I closed them to feel every tantalizing touch as I felt him push my skirt up over my hips.
“You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to do this again,” he said deeply as he slipped my undies down and off.
His hands pressed firmly into each thigh spreading them farther apart. I was keenly aware of the cold desk below me and the fell of his warm skin close to me.
His fingers came to my lips and parted them slightly. I moaned as he blew soft cold air on in the wetness between my legs.
“Fuck, Barrett,” I moaned as the sensation shot up my body. “Kiss me,” I begged for him to put his mouth on me.
Instead he placed one foot on either one of his shoulders and spread my thighs wide open for him. I tightened as he kissed and nibbled along my inner thigh. It was amazing but I wanted more. He was teasing me.
“Please Barrett," I moaned again. “Fuck me with your mouth.”
He did at that instant. It was an insane sensation to go from the cool air to the warmth of his mouth. I almost came just from that. Barrett's strong hands grabbed my hips and pulled me closer to his mouth.
Over and over again he dipped his tongue deep inside me twisting and twirling it around. I reached my hands over my head enjoying every second of his tender kisses. I fell the rise growing stronger in me.
Just when I arched my back and came in a rushing climax, he turned his head and rubbed the rough stubble of his chin against my bean. It was overly sensitive and I bit my hand to keep from screaming out loud.
“Barrett,” I moaned again as I came down from my orgasm.
He stood at my words and I could hear him unzipping his pants. I couldn’t bring myself to open my eyes yet. The orgasm seemed to take every ounce out of me.
“Look at me,” he ordered softly.
I opened my eyes. Barrett thick with desire was ready and poised to enter me. I watched as he slipped it deep inside me. We both gave an audible breath of satisfaction.
“I’ve missed you,” he said as he grabbed my hips and thrusted hard into me.
He kept a steady pace pushing his member deep inside of me. I could feel the rise coming again and would have given anything to stay like this forever. He too was beginning to swell inside me.
He leaned over me, one arm on either side of me, as he dipped his head to kiss and suck at my breasts. With a quick swish of his hands he popped both my tits from their cups and took one perky nipple with his mouth.
All the while he kept up his pace beating hard into me. I dug my hands into his hair and arched my breast higher to him. I wanted him to take every inch of my body.
I could feel him swelling thicker still inside me. I felt like I was going to burst. He knew it too.
“Yes, baby, cum for me again, Lilly,” he ordered me against my breast.
I did come for him again. It was an entirely filling and execrating orgasm that I could easily say I had only experienced one other time in my life.
I felt him swell to bursting before he too found his release inside me. He pulled on my hips hard digging our bodies as close together as possible as he ejected his juices down my wet insides.
He steadied as we both orgasmed. Barrett waited till we both relaxed before sliding out of me. He lifted me gently up so that I was again sitting on the edge of my desk. I watched as he tenderly popped one breast and then the other back inside my bra. Wrapping his arms around me, he enveloped me to him and kissed me softly on the head.

“Do you need me to go soon,” I said as I held Lilly to my chest.
If it were up to me, I would insist she leave her office right that instant and come home with me. I didn’t forget that she had that meeting later today. As much as I would have much rather lock her up in my bedroom for the rest of the day, I knew that wouldn’t be a possibility.
“Not yet,” she said with her head resting on my chest.
I leaned my chin on the top of her head and breathed in her sweet scent. I had been wild dreaming about this woman over the years. I had always figured if I ever had her again it would settle the matter. Like it was a thirst that only needed to be quenched once.
It wasn’t something that I was ever going to have enough of now that I had tasted her again. Finally she leaned back from me and I reluctantly released her. She slipped off the desk to collect and replace her clothes.
I looked over her desk and noticed a single picture frame. I turned it with trepidation. This is the moment I had wanted at the beginning of all of this. It had to be a picture of her daughter.
Sure enough it was. It looked like a school photo, and I guessed from a few years earlier. Aria looked to be five or six in it. One of her front teeth was missing and she was giving a big happy grin. What was unmistakable was the two pitch black ponytails with bows.
“This your daughter,” I said staring down at the picture.
“Yeah,” Lilly said taking it from my hand quickly and looking at it herself fondly. “It was a couple years back. I should really put the new one in. All kids look so alike when they are little and still have that baby fat.”
I looked at the picture in her hand. Was she trying to convince me that that similarities I saw were just happenstance? Maybe it was because the idea had already been planted in my head, but I was sure now, looking on the face of that little girl that she had to be mine.
“Is the father still around?” I asked as I took a seat in one of the two leather chairs that faced her desk. Instead of going behind her desk, Lilly took the other one next to me. She set the picture frame back in place facing away from us before tucking her feet under her.
“Um, no.”
“That’s too bad. Did he move away or something?”
I hated that I was prying but now more then ever I wanted to hear her tell me the words.
“He was in the Navy. A SEAL actually. He died while he was depl
oyed though. Before Aria was born so…”
I could see the nervousness in her words. It was hard to tell if it was hurt or because she was making it up.
“I’m so sorry to hear that,” I responded. “That must have been so hard for you to lose him.”
"We didn’t really know each other. He was deployed before I even knew I was pregnant.”
“Did you tell him though?”
“No,” she shifted awkwardly in her seat. “It all happened really quickly. But I was fine with taking care of Aria on my own. I mean, I know it’s not the perfect situation but we do alright.”
“Yeah, I see that.” I said waving around to the office. “You must be a bigger deal then you made yourself out to be,” I teased.
“No, not at all,” she laughed and brushed her hair back. “But we get by.”
I thought on that as I made my way back to the office. I had no plans to return, but knew I probably should. If I was lucky, the rest of the staff would have taken off leaving me alone to work and think in some peace and quiet.
I was troubled by what Lilly had said. It wasn’t that I didn’t believe her or worry about them financially. Lilly had clearly been a trooper putting the need of her daughter before everything else.
What plagued my mind was the fact that she shouldn’t have done it all on her own. Of course I repeated over again to myself there was no way I could have know she was pregnant and she had no way to tell me.
It wasn’t how I had wanted to end things eight years ago. After a meeting like that I had hoped that we could have actually started something. Lilly had blown out of that VIP room as fast as she had blown into my life.
I wonder if some part of me had known out in the universe there was my child, that she was the mother. Why else would I have attached myself so much to the memory of Lilly over all these years.
If I was truly being honest with myself, that memory of our night together had been an excuse for me never to start another relationship. Every time I even tried, all I did was compare the woman before me to the one I had known so briefly. The one that was gone in the blink of an eye.
