Guilt.
Being drugged could probably excuse the explicit sexual harrassment of a friend and colleague.
Other girls, with lesser boyfriends, might even be excused for the attempted infidelity.
But this was practically treason. A logical endangerment of the Work. And worse, it was hurting Andrew.

Gio sat in the bed she'd been morosely put to as the doctor looked her over. She still found foreign doctors humiliating and inappropriate, but what pride could really be left after what she'd done?

She wondered how Sengai had explained to him what happened. It occurs to her that he might have left all but the most essential points to her.

Maybe a better girlfriend would keep her mouth shut to avoid hurting him, but she couldn't lie to Andrew.

	He settles onto the bed with her, nestling her up to him, an arm going around her. "Good, then all I'm worried about is helping you get through this. I love you, I'm comfortable with you, as you are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And that's wonderful, but ... the guilt is still there. "You.... you could do better, you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She presses more firmly into his arms. "I love you so much," she mutters before kissing him, trying to feel ... cleaner from the process of doing so. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He returns the kisses, then draws back to meet her gaze directly. "Is there anything I can do that would help?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Managing to look him in the eye gets her breathing heavier as much as the kiss does. Her hands slip under his shirt. "If you're not too tired, may I just touch you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He lifts his arms a bit, to let her remove the shirt if she wishes. "All you like. I'm never too tired for you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She takes it off of him with earnest care and that difficulty taking her eyes off of him that he'll be familiar with by now, though maybe it's even a little more ardent than usual. And then she nuzzles at his chest, presses kisses to the top of his shoulder. Lets her bodies faded but still very present need demonstrate itself on its rightful object.

	If this helps her, then he's certainly not going to object any. Andrew relaxes, letting her gaze and hands wander as they will, 'mmm'ing softly at the touches and kisses. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-02-28 08:58 am UTC (link)
	And every contact, and every hint of approval about it, makes her more eager. "Do.. do you want me, mon ange?" she asks between kisses tot his stomach. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-02-28 09:05 am UTC (link)
	He's definitely gotten more worked up by the feel of her hands and lips against him, a touch flushed, breathing just a little harder - making the answer to the question fairly obvious. Just in case. "I think you might be overdressed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-02-28 09:11 am UTC (link)
	And Gio manages to efficiently scramble out of her clothes, stretching naked before him, her expression still as earnest and interested and eager-to-please, with just a touch of uncertainty, as the first time they got this far. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-02-28 09:12 am UTC (link)
	He admires every inch of her, eyes roaming over her body hungrily. "Beautiful, as ever." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-02-28 09:21 am UTC (link)
	And Gio shivers a little, just at that. "Thank you, mon ange." She reaches for him again, ready to kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-02-28 09:29 am UTC (link)
	He returns the kiss, harder and hungrier this time, one hand going to her hair, the other to cup, then caress one breast. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-02-28 09:35 am UTC (link)
	An eager sound against his lips, pressing more against him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-03-04 05:01 am UTC (link)
	He presses back against her, continuing to fondle her breast, just a little roughly, his tongue probing between her lips, twining with hers in a deep kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gio whimpers against his mouth, not at all unhappily. She's peeled off her psychic shielding to match her clothes, feeling utterly vulnerable. It always feels right to be that way in his arms. And she needs right, now. Needs that just-a-little rough feeling. Needs to be indisputably... "Yours, Andrew," she gasps when they part for air. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-03-04 05:27 am UTC (link)
	He's still occasionally getting used to...all of this. But he has gotten to know her well enough to know, when she gets in such states, what she wants. To be his, to be a little vulnerable. To not have to be in control. He urges her, gently and wordlessly, onto her knees before him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-03-04 05:37 am UTC (link)
	And she sinks to kneel happily, hands sliding over his waist, eyes shining. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He lets her handle details like those zippers and snaps, just shifting to step out of the last of his clothes as she helps out, before his hand returns to rest in her hair. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-03-04 05:49 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you," she says quietly at his hands in her hair, then leans to nuzzle. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He rubs himself back against her, growing more aroused by the moment, but not rushing her in the least. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	burnwithlight 2012-03-04 05:58 am UTC (link)
	And she brushes her face against him, kisses, licks, all downright worshipfully. "Je t'aime, mon ange," she mutters against him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	assaultnbattery 2012-03-04 06:01 am UTC (link)
	He groans a bit louder, stiffening more under her attentions and worship. His hips shift in time with her motions. "Mon Dieu, that's amazing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
