Subject: He was quiet that morning when he came in, and patiently waited for the secretary to call his name.

For once, he actually had a lot on his mind, and it showed by his pensive expression. He was dressed a bit less casually then usual, in jeans and a button down white dress shirt, left unbuttoned over his gray beater. A hand ran over his eyes slowly, rubbing his temples after a moment.

She was running a little behind schedule, but before too long her secretary was ushering him into her office and closing the door behind him. Glancing up from a file she was just putting away, she smiled a touch. She also was dressed a little more casually thanks to the heat - black pants, and an elegant red halter top, a black light jacket over the back of the chair. "Hey.." (NT) -- Ana, 21:20:13 08/16/03 Sat
"Hey." He sat down on the couch, shifting a little bit - looking almost as nervous as he had the first time he had come here. (NT) -- Jason, 21:22:05 08/16/03 Sat
"What's the matter?" She cocked a brow curiously, settling back into her plush chair and toying absently with her pen. (NT) -- Ana, 21:23:23 08/16/03 Sat
He shrugged, looking out the window, absently playing with his cellphone, flicking it open and shut. "Lot on my mind." (NT) -- Jason, 21:25:15 08/16/03 Sat
"You wanna talk about it?" She questioned gently - officially he was still seeing her as patient, but if their friendship progressed too much further, they would have to talk about changing arrangements. (NT) -- Ana, 21:27:07 08/16/03 Sat
He shrugged a bit, looking up at her briefly. "You already know most of it." (NT) -- Jason, 21:30:12 08/16/03 Sat
Her brows furrowed a touch and she shifted in her chair, crossing one leg under herself. "I'm not sure I really understand, honey.." She knew things that could be bothering him, but she didn't understand why today of all days, and what exactly was on his mind. (NT) -- ana, 21:31:51 08/16/03 Sat
"Have you ever felt guilty about something Ana? So guilty that it just drives you crazy, and everything makes you think about that?" (NT) -- Jason, 21:37:54 08/16/03 Sat
"Not really.. I don't really take alot of risks like that.." Her voice was soft as she glanced down absently to the pad of paper on her desk - immediately wondering now much he was regretting their kiss the other night. (NT) -- Ana, 21:40:41 08/16/03 Sat
He knew what she was thinking, and he was quick to lean forward. "I feel guilty because I enjoyed it so much..." (NT) -- Jason, 21:45:31 08/16/03 Sat
She glanced up at him, sighing softly as she dropped her chin into her hand. "But I bet it's been a long time since you've kissed anyone..." He might have enjoyed it with anyone - on one hand, she wanted him to want her, but on the other she felt so bad that he was having to deal with all this while he was still obviously very much in love with Skye. (NT) -- Ana, 21:47:56 08/16/03 Sat
He shrugged. "It's been a long time since I've wanted to kiss anyone." That had to count for something, he wanted her. (NT) -- Jason, 21:52:59 08/16/03 Sat
She watched him another long moment before speaking again, absently running a hand through her soft curls. "That's not such a bad thing... Wanting to kiss someone..." (NT) -- Ana, 21:54:52 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed lightly, watching her quietly. "I just..I don't know, I'm having all these weird thoughts and stuff Ana." (NT) -- Jason, 21:57:45 08/16/03 Sat
"Thoughts like you don't want to betray her?" Her gaze drifted down to watch as she absently scrawled her name on the paper. (NT) -- Ana, 21:59:30 08/16/03 Sat
"yeah, kind of...I don't know..like I wasn't with her that long you know, married wise at least...and i should be able to move on by now, right?" (NT) -- Jason, 22:05:40 08/16/03 Sat
She shrugged a touch, glancing up again. "I think it's really just how you can handle things personally... Maybe you two weren't married long, but you obviously loved her very much..." (NT) -- Ana, 22:07:15 08/16/03 Sat
"but I'm obviously starting to care a lot about you. So where does that leave me? Being in love with a dead woman, and unable to give myself to the perfect woman who's right in front me." (NT) -- Jason, 22:10:58 08/16/03 Sat
She was quiet for a moment at that - it was hard to know what advice to give him, because her opinion was very much biased. "Then maybe you're ready to start saying your goodbyes.." (NT) -- Ana, 22:13:03 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed softly, running a hand down his face before he fingered the chain around his neck - the chain that wore his wedding band. (NT) -- Jason, 22:14:54 08/16/03 Sat
Gaze soft on him, she tilted her head delicately, voice soft. "I just.. Don't want you to be pushed into anything you're not ready for." (NT) -- Ana, 22:16:40 08/16/03 Sat
"I know sweetheart..." He sighed, looking back to make sure ,the door was closed before he crossed over to her, his hand trailing down her cheek. "I do care about you." (NT) -- Jason, 22:21:43 08/16/03 Sat
She pushed her chair away from the desk a bit before leaning back in her chair to look up at him, a hand curling absently around one of his legs. "I know... I care about you too..." (NT) -- Ana, 22:23:35 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed, kneeling down in front of her. "But I wanna be able to give you all of me you know?" (NT) -- Jason, 22:25:23 08/16/03 Sat
She brushed her fingers through his hair, leaning forward a little. "I know... I understand..." It was hard to be understanding when she just wanted to be selfish, but pushing something wouldn't get them anywhere in the long run. She'd just never known anyone like him before... (NT) -- Ana, 22:27:18 08/16/03 Sat
"Be patient with me?" He questioned softly,bringing her palm to his lips. (NT) -- Jason, 22:30:41 08/16/03 Sat
"Of course... I promise... I'm not going anywhere." She dipped her head to place a kiss to his cheek, speaking softly. (NT) -- Ana, 22:32:09 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed softly, bringing her into his arms for a tight hug, murmuring a soft thank you. (NT) -- Jason, 22:33:56 08/16/03 Sat
She slipped her arms around him, ducking her face into his neck and sighing softly, a hand soothing reassuringly over his back. "Not getting away from me that easy.." (NT) -- Ana, 22:36:09 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed softly, holding her tightly to him, his face buried in her neck. She was quickly beomcing his strength, his rock. (NT) -- Jason, 22:39:18 08/16/03 Sat
Eyes lightly closed, she kissed his cheek tenderly, a hand running through his short hair softly. "You okay?" (NT) -- Ana, 22:41:12 08/16/03 Sat
"yeah..." He murmured, shifting a bit to brush his lips across hers. (NT) -- Jason, 22:43:01 08/16/03 Sat
Her fingers moved to cup his cheek and she returned the brief kiss, sighing softly afterwards. "Good.." (NT) -- Ana, 22:44:05 08/16/03 Sat
He rested his forehead against hers for a moment. "Whens your next appointment?" (NT) -- Jason, 22:48:34 08/16/03 Sat
"This afternoon..." She tended to schedule his appointments before lunch so she had more time to spend with him. Arms still around him, she kissed his cheek once more. (NT) -- Ana, 22:50:53 08/16/03 Sat
He shifted his lips to capture hers once more, his hand moving over her hair. It was powerful, how she affected him. (NT) -- Jason, 22:52:55 08/16/03 Sat
Meeting his lips willingly, she smiled a little into the kiss and moved a hand to play through the short hair at the back of his head. (NT) -- Ana, 22:55:07 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed against her mouth, shifting her to sit on her desk, one leg on either side of him. (NT) -- Jason, 22:56:45 08/16/03 Sat
One leg hooked lightly around his, an arm around his neck and a hand light on his chest as she returned the kiss willingly. (NT) -- ana, 22:59:38 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed, taking a ragged breath as he tore away lightly, trailing his lips down her neck. (NT) -- Jason, 23:01:22 08/16/03 Sat
She tilted her head to the side a little, sighing deeply as her fingers toyed with his shirt, eyes still lightly shut. (NT) -- Ana, 23:02:40 08/16/03 Sat
He nipped and sucked lightly at her smooth skin, his hands running up and down her sides slowly, admiring the well places curves. (NT) -- Jason, 23:05:59 08/16/03 Sat
A quiet sound slipped from her lips as she shifted closer to the edge of the desk to get closer to him, fingers of one hand raking through his hair, her other hand slipping down his chest to rest on his stomach. (NT) -- Ana, 23:08:12 08/16/03 Sat
His hands wrapped around her ribs, tugging her closer as his lips found hers in another deep kiss. (NT) -- Jason, 23:10:38 08/16/03 Sat
Her teeth caught his lower lip and tugged gently before she returned to the kiss, arms slipping tightly around his neck. (NT) -- Ana, 23:11:53 08/16/03 Sat
He made a soft sound before he broke away, trying to catch his breath. "Need to..slow down." He smirked lightly, dropping a kiss to the tip of her nose. "Your desk..not ideal for the first time." (NT) -- Jason, 23:13:58 08/16/03 Sat
She laughed lightly, exhaling deeply as she placed a single kiss to his neck. "Yeah, you're probably right..." (NT) -- Ana, 23:15:11 08/16/03 Sat
He sighed softly, his arms still around her. "Wanna go out tonight?" (NT) -- Jason, 23:20:51 08/16/03 Sat
"Sure... Where to?" She smiled, eyes on her hands which rested lightly on his chest. (NT) -- Ana, 23:23:32 08/16/03 Sat
"Dinner? then back to my place, or your place?" He murmure,d nuzzling her neck softly. (NT) -- Jason, 23:26:42 08/16/03 Sat
"Sounds good..." She tilted her head slightly and sighed quietly, brushing a hand over his head. (NT) -- Ana, 23:29:53 08/16/03 Sat
He smiled softly. "I should let you get back to work, huh?" (NT) -- Jason, 23:32:29 08/16/03 Sat
"Mm, yeah... Or else I'm going to have even more trouble concentrating this afternoon." She smiled, pressing her lips to his jaw and lightly patting his chest. (NT) -- Ana, 23:34:03 08/16/03 Sat
"Alright..I'll see ya tonight then? How about I pick you up around eight?" (NT) -- Jason, 23:37:50 08/16/03 Sat
"That works.." Her hand trailed down his chest once more before she shifted from her desk back into her chair, still looking up at him. "Have a good afternoon.." (NT) -- Ana, 23:40:30 08/16/03 Sat
"You too sweetheart." With that he made his exit, saying a quick goodbye to the secretary. (NT) -- Jason, 23:42:30 08/16/03 Sat
She watched him go, smiling softly and sighing as the door shut once again behind him. She made a few notes out of obligation before tidying up her desk and grabbing her jacket and purse to go grab some lunch before her next client... (NT) -- Ana, 23:44:22 08/16/03 Sat
