They moved into the bedroom, still kissing.
Robin sat down on her bed and leaned back. She opened her legs widely, welcoming her lover.
Sebastian lay down on top of her, kissing and petting her. His hands ran over her face, shoulders and breasts, working their way down to her core.
Robin wanted to watch what he was doing, but her eyes fell shut again, the pleasure he was giving her blinded her. “Now.”
“You’re a very demanding little girl.”
Her eyes opened to see how he meant that. When she saw that he was grinning at her, she answered, “I like to get what I want.”
“I’ll see to it that you get what you want.” He thrust into her, filling her completely.
“I missed you,” she told him before her eyes closed again.
“You’re right. We were apart for too long.” He pushed up into her deeply, slowly making love to her. He wanted to enjoy her today. His eyes were able to feast on her body, which was spread open underneath him. He kissed her often and told her that he loved her.
She opened her eyes and told him that she loved him too.
They pressed their hearts together and clung to each other until they came together. Each thought that they were a perfect match for the other, and each worried that they’d never see each other again after the floods reseeded.
Chapter 8
Sebastian held Robin in his arms until it was time for him to check on Mrs. O’Brian. It was getting dark outside again.
While he dressed, he stood beside Robin’s bed, watching her sleep. The bond they shared was so strong that it astounded him.
He wrote her a note and set it on the closed toilet seat, telling her where he was and reminding her about the sample he still needed.
He needed to have a long talk with her about the effects of burnout. Why couldn’t she see that that was where she was heading?
Sebastian peeked into Robin’s room when he returned. He was extremely quiet, so he wouldn’t wake her. The light next to her bed was on. “Robin, you shouldn’t be working.”
“Hi.” She closed her file and moved it to the side.
Sebastian sighed. “I thought I was clear. Robin, we talked about this.”
Robin rolled her eyes at him. “I woke up and thought I could get work done. It relaxes me when everything is completed.”
“Young lady, I don’t appreciate that tone.”
“I’m not a young lady,” she pouted.
“Well, you’re not acting like an adult either.” He felt a need to really lay into her and lecture her about working too hard and about her manners.
“What? You were working too. Mrs. O’Brian is your patient. That means you were working. I’m not scolding you about that.”
“So you read my note. You knew where I was. That means I can finally check your urine sample.” He went into the living room and grabbed his bag from the sofa where he’d just placed it.”
“No, don’t go in there.”
“Why not? Did you poop?”
“No, I just had to go so badly that I didn’t have time to catch it in the cup. Next time,” she lied.
Sebastian saw right through that lie. He set his bag down by her feet and lifted her out of the bed, making her screamed surprised. He turned her body over, so she was laying face down on his lap.
“No. Stop. I don’t want this.”
“This isn’t a question of what you want. It’s a question of what you need. You need to listen to me and help me help you.” He brought his hand down, stinging her backside.
“Stop!”
“I’ll stop once you’ve learned your lesson. Daddy is so mad at you right now. I think you provoked me, so I’d spank you, because you know you deserve it.” Each word that came out of his mouth was accompanied by one of those stinging spanks.
Robin was bouncing around on his knee, trying to get up. She was no match for his strength, so she tried to cover up her bottom with her hands.
“Get your hands out of the way. You know you deserve this.”
“No,” she pouted better than any six-year-old could.
“Robin, if you remove your hands, it would show your good will, and your willingness to better yourself with my help.”
She thought about that. Daily she dreamt about having a life trainer who would help her to eat healthier, and who would help manage her time better, so she could sleep more. He was offering her exactly what she wanted plus the benefit of sleeping together. He’d clearly told her that he wanted to take care of her.
She admitted to herself that she’d provoked him, seeing the note had rubbed her the wrong way. She’d felt clever when she crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.
Sebastian figured that she was too busy pouting to really think about the value of her life. He spanked the back of her thighs, trying to get his point across. “I need that sample to know what you have and what you don’t have. I doubt that you’re sick. I think you got overwhelmed at work. Perhaps, you even had a panic attack, and then you cried and said it was the flu. You couldn’t let yourself go home for exhaustion, but you could if you told yourself that you’re sick. You’re too hard on yourself.” He spanked harder, desperately trying to get his point across.
Robin stretched her arms longer trying to get to her thighs. She hated that he was able to see through her so easily.
“You don’t understand how serious burnout is. Did you know that more women die of heart attacks nowadays than men? You’re in the high-risk group because of your job and your resulting lifestyle. Don’t ever think, not even for one moment, that I’d stand by and watch you work yourself to death. And I mean death when I say death.”
Robin removed her hands and covered up her face. “It’s just for a couple of weeks. When I make partner, things will get better. They are going to make the announcement on Monday.”
Sebastian rubbed his warm hand over her pink hind cheeks and her red thighs, trying to ease the pain for both of them. “Do you really think that you’ll have a nine to five job once you make partner?”
“Maybe not that short, but it would be better than now.” She stayed where she was unsure if he was finished with her spanking or not. If he weren’t, she’d lie nicely and take what he felt she deserved. He was the only person who truly cared about her. She didn’t doubt that for a second. She never would. He clearly loved her. Even now, over his knees, she felt his love. He was a stranger, but he was the person who she was closest to on this planet.
“So you recognize the problem, and you’re working to fix it?”
“Yes, Daddy,” she replied.
“What happens if you don’t make partner?”
“I guess I would have to continue working long hours until it does work.”
“Honey, you can’t go on like this. I wouldn’t have you anymore. Don’t do that to me,” he begged.
“That won’t happen. I worked the hardest. My clients are happy with me. They never complain about me. My co-workers like me. I did everything right.”
Sebastian hoped that she was right. “Sometimes, you do everything right, and things don’t work out like you’d hoped.”
“I promise this will. It has to.”
“And if it doesn’t. What will you do then?”
“Don’t say that. It has to work out.” She moved her hands away from her face and looked down at the floor under them.
“I hope it does. Still, I’m worried. I did this because I want to have you around for a long time. You’re the most important person to me in the world.”
Robin’s heart should have melted at his confession of love. Instead, it made her mad. She didn’t want him saying that it might not happen. It had to work out. “I told you that I’d get it. There is nothing for you to worry about. I’m the best worker at the office. I’m better than the others who go home to their families. I care about work the most, so I’ll get the promotion.” her words bit at him, letting him know exactly what she thought about his doubts. “If you w
ant to make it to the top you have to make sacrifices and do your best. You have to push yourself to your limits and get as much out of your body as you can. I can take a pleasure cruise when I retire. Now isn’t the time for selfishness.”
“I think you’re full of it. In fact, I know you are. I could feel that you were a bit constipated last night, and you didn’t go today, and you just now told me that you didn’t go while I checked on Mrs. O’Brian. I think you need to get rid of that crap you carry around with you. Maybe less crap would come out of your mouth then.”
“What? No, I’m fine.” Robin couldn’t be hearing him correctly.
“When did you go last?”
“A couple of days ago. I’m fine.”
“You should be going every day. But don’t worry. I’ll get rid of it for you, honey.”
“Stop, No, wait. What are you doing?” She heard him opening his bag.
“I’m getting rid of the hamburgers and other fast food that’s stuck inside of you.”
Robin felt a nozzle pressing into her anus, and then slipping inside of her. “No,” she said horrified.
“A doctor knows best.”
“Please, I’ll pee for you. I’ll do it right now. I won’t give you any more problems,” she promised and begged, anything to get him to stop. This was a thousand times worse than peeing in front of him.
Sebastian had decided what would be best for her, and he stayed on his chosen path.
“I could take a laxative like I usually do. That will work.”
“This is faster. Soon all the nonsense will be out of you. Then I’ll see to it that you’re healthier, so the problems don’t occur again. If it does, you’ll know how I handle it.”
“No. This is so outdated. You can’t do this.”
“This isn’t outdated. In fact, I’ll be giving Mrs. O’Brian one in a couple of hours.” He let the liquid slowly fill Robin’s body.
Robin had to grab onto her blankets to take the pain. “Stop! I’m full! Nothing more will fit.”
“A bit more, honey. Until the bag is empty,” he told her. She truly did need help.
“Let me up. I have to go. Now,” she added. Slowly, she was forgetting her embarrassment. The fact that she was completely naked and draped over his clothed sexy body with a pink backside from a spanking was fading in importance.
“It has to stay inside a bit to be able to work its magic.” He hoped that when it came out she would understand that taking care of herself was important too.
“It worked already. Let me up,” Robin called over her shoulder.
“In the future you’ll exercise more and eat real fruits and fiber.”
“Whatever you want. Just let me go now.” Robin was clenching her hind cheeks together tightly for fear that she might go on him here and now. “Understand that I have to go to the bathroom now.”
“Relax, Robin. I know what I’m doing. This will help. You’ll feel like a new person when it’s over.”
“When will it be over?”
“Soon. Then you’ll drink lots of water, and I’ll call for a healthy meal. When was the last time you had fish?” he asked. He removed the nozzle and petted over her pink bottom, lovingly.
“It’s been a while. Sebastian, I need to go to the bathroom now, please.”
“You need to relax, so it can work.”
“This is so embarrassing,” she declared.
“No, it isn’t. I’m helping your body work like it should. I love you so much. If this is what is going to help you, I’ll do it. There is nothing special about this.”
“Really? Do you spank all of your patients naked and then give them an enema over your lap.”
“Just the ones I really care about,” he barked back at her.
“Now?” she asked, hoping she could go now.
“I want you to relax and breathe deeply then you can go.”
Robin did as she was told. She forced her heart to stop racing, and her lungs to accept big gulps of air.
“You can go now.” He let go of her and watched the woman he loved race to the bathroom. He followed her in and had to smile when he saw her sitting on the toilet smiling and saying ‘thank God’.
“I love you more than you will ever know. Nothing you do could embarrass me.”
Chapter 9
Sebastian got dressed and looked over his shoulder at Robin. She was dressing in a smart suit. She looked like a little girl playing business lady. He knew perfectly well that she was more than capable of doing her job, but in his heart she was so precious to him. He wanted to protect her from work.
They had a marvelous weekend laughing and talking and of course making love. When she slept on Saturday night, he delivered Mrs. O’Brian’s baby. She had given birth to a boy, who she named Taylor.
It made him want to have one of his own. He knew exactly where he wanted to plant that baby.
“How do I look? I don’t want to look too good. No one should think that I knew I would get it, but I don’t want to look too everyday-like either.”
“You look professional yet approachable,” he told her.
“Thank you.” Her eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.
Apparently, he’d answered her perfectly. “How do I look?” Sebastian asked, teasing her.
“Like you need to go shopping. That outfit is so yesterday and the day before that.” Robin was bubbling with happiness.
“The next time you see me, I’ll be wearing something else. When will that be, Robin? When do I get to see you again?”
“I don’t know. We may go out for drinks to celebrate tonight. I have no idea what protocol is for something like is. Let’s trade cell numbers,” she suggested.
“Call me as soon as you know. I’ll want to brag about you at work.”
“Really?”
“Yes, you’re my girlfriend, right?” He held his breath, waiting for her answer.
Robin hesitated before she answered him. “Yes, of course. I am. We’ve made a pact to stay friends no matter what.”
“Yes, we did.” Sebastian felt her slipping through his fingers.
“I have to go now, or I’ll be late. Just let yourself out. I trust you not to take the TV with you when you go,” she joked. Her mood was fantastic.
“Mr. Johnson would catch me before I left the building.”
Robin laughed and waved goodbye to him.
In the taxi on the way to work she folded her hands and prayed for the promotion. ‘Please, don’t let them use the exhaustion against me. I want this so badly, Lord. Hold your hand over me and guide me throughout the day.’ She ended the prayer like she did every day. Praying was her form of meditation. That would probably please Sebastian. He’d like to know that she took a moment and settled down every day to pray.
‘Watch over my Sebastian, God. Guide his footsteps and help him find happiness with someone who truly loves him. Someone who can see how special he is and give him what he needs.’
Sebastian also prayed while he stood in his apartment changing into fresh clothes.
He prayed that Robin would let him love her, and that she’d accept him the way he was, and even realize that she too had little girl tendencies; tendencies that they could explore together.
Chapter 10
Robin held herself in check. She wanted to cry, but she pulled herself together and went to her colleague and shook his hand. “Congratulations.” She gave him a nice smile. She needed him to like her, so he’d consider her for partner in a couple of years when a position was open again.
Robin stepped to the side, so others could congratulate him. She stayed by everyone as long as she felt decorum demanded. Then she went back to her office and sat down behind her desk. She threw herself into her work.
When she looked at her cell, she saw that Sebastian had called her a couple of times.
Robin couldn’t call him back just yet. She still needed to pretend that everything was normal. This wasn’t the place to cry. She needed to be strong and hide h
er disappointment.
She continued to work until six. The secretaries were packing their things together and leaving for the evening.
Robin felt that she had to leave now before she embarrassed herself. No one was allowed to see how hurt she was. She’d go home and cry there while she ate a hamburger and drank a strawberry shake.
She left the building after giving several people a nice smile and saying good evening.
There was no reason for her to stay late. Adam never did. He went home to his wife punctually every evening at six. Robin would do the same from now on too. Her hard work hadn’t paid off.
She called a taxi and slipped into it as quietly as she could, pretending that nothing had happened and like she’d hadn’t experienced a terrible disappointment.
Sebastian saw Mr. Johnson standing by the door from across the street. Mr. Johnson waved to him. Sebastian waved back and crossed the street.
“Hello, Dr. Kennedy. Who are you here to visit today?”
“I here to check on your newest tenant. How is he?”
“Taylor is doing fine. His mother is also up and around, carrying on as usual.”
“Has the father been able to make it home yet?”
“Yes, he’s home now. I’m sure he’ll want to thank you.”
“I was happy to help. Is Robin back from work? I could check on her too. If she’s home,” he added.
“She usually doesn’t come home until later. I’ll tell her you inquired about her. How was your first day back at work?”
“It was nice. They had a cake to celebrate.”
“That’s nice, but this is a nice city.”
Sebastian figured that Mr. Johnson wanted him to marry Robin and move in. He was a great guy, but Robin was back to being a super-girl. She didn’t even have time to answer his phone calls. Sadly, he’d spent his lunch hour buying her an engagement ring. He would probably never get a chance to give it to her.
Robin held her briefcase on her lap like a little girl would hold her lunchbox. Traffic was slow at this time of day. She hadn’t reckoned with that. This wasn’t the usual time for her to go home.
