A Presence Felt - Part 2

... my therapist, I know you can't just start dating me. It would look bad."

Adrian sat up a little straighter. "What are you trying to tell me, Stella?"

Her stare met his again. "I'm telling you that I meant what I said earlier. I won't ask you for anything more than this. I don't ever want you to feel obligated to spend time with me simply because you're holding onto guilt about what we've done."

"That's not why—" Adrian began, but she pressed a finger to his lips.

"Last night, you said you needed time to think about all this, so I'm going to give that to you, Adrian." Stella eased off his lap and stood. He watched while she grabbed a tissue from the box on his desk and used it to wipe between her thighs. Then, she began getting dressed.

"Stay," he urged gently.

Stella only shook her head. "Once you've figured things out, you know where to find me," she told him with a wink. "If you decide to stop by my house in the future, I promise we'll steer clear of the spare room."

Adrian climbed to his feet and dressed as well, all the while trying to think of a way to convince Stella to remain with him. She'd just pulled her shirt over her head when he asked, "Will you be safe there alone? In that house?"

Her expression was almost amused. "I won't be alone. You know that."

Adrian leaned forward to grasp Stella's arm. "But will you be safe... with him?"

The question hung in the air between them, seeming to take on its own weight. "Of course," Stella finally whispered. "Whatever that presence is, he's changed my life for the better. Just as you have." Before leaving Adrian's office for the last time, Stella kissed the corner of his mouth, making him hunger for more. "I really hope I see you again, Adrian," she said.

Then she was gone.
