A Baumgartner Reunion Ch. 06

"I don't know." I squirmed in his lap, uncomfortable with the question, looking away.

He nudged my chin, turning my head back to him. "I think you do."

"Why do you think that?" I countered.

"Because your body wants it." His grip at my waist tightened and he slid his hand over my hip, pulling me closer. I felt, for the first time, how hard he was, and I flushed, my nipples tingling in response. "It's smarter than you are."

"Your body doesn't judge, Ronnie." His other hand moved in my hair, tilting my head back, feathering soft kisses at my throat. "Your head does that."

"Doc..." I swallowed, closing my eyes, feeling his hand moving down my hip, over my thigh. "I don't..."

"You're afraid, Ronnie." He pushed me from his lap and I gasped as he stood, towering over me. "You're afraid of losing him, but it's more than that. You're afraid of letting go, of losing control."

I stared at him, unable to speak.

"Come with me." He held out his hand.

I frowned. "Where?"

"Trust me."

That was the first step. Trembling, I took his hand and followed.
