Lillian

Warm and relaxed, Lillian’s eyes drifted open, the warm weight on top of her felt comfortable, natural even. Her eyes slowly started to focus on the ceiling, the tiles lighted by the gray dawn coming through the plate glass windows. She blinked a few times as everything came into focus. She looked down to see Jade’s dark hair falling over her shoulder. Her stomach clenched. What have I done? she asked herself. Her heart started thudding in her chest. She started moving, trying to maneuver from beneath Jade without waking her.

“Good morning,” Jade half-whispered lazily while yawning. So much for not waking her. “How long have we been asleep?”

Lillian opened her mouth to answer, but she wasn’t actually sure. Jade relieved her of the obligation of answering by checking her phone. She sat up on the couch, still completely naked, and didn’t seem to have a care in the world. Lillian quickly moved around the room and gathered her clothes, sliding into each piece as she came across them.

“It’s only been a little more than an hour,” Jade said and stretched languidly, falling against the couch.

Lillian pressed her lips together. She wasn’t sure what to say, or if there was anything to be said. This had been one big mistake, brought on by the exhaustion of the night. She glanced out the window again. The sky was still gray, but the air seemed still, especially compared to last night. It was just lust, nothing more, storm-driven lust. She opened her mouth to say as much, but the words stuck in her throat. The image of Jade on her knees with Lillian’s leg kicked up over her shoulder flashed through her mind, and it felt as though she had been struck by lightning.

“Lillian?” Jade asked from the couch. Lillian wondered if she was even going to bother with getting dressed.

“Doctor Holder,” Lillian corrected almost automatically. She glanced at Jade through her eyebrows as she slipped her shoes on.

“Excuse me,” Jade said, her eyes tightening slightly. “Doctor Holder, I guess we need to get back to work.”

Lillian nodded, her chest constricting. All she could think about was getting out of that room. She walked toward the door and hesitated but couldn’t make herself look back. She was sure Jade would have an expression of insult, and she probably had a right to it, but Lillian just wanted to get out of there. Get away from Jade, and that room, and those incredible memories. She fought against a chuckle when she realized that the door had been locked. Jade had probably planned all of this. Lillian felt embarrassed, almost disgusted with herself for allowing this to happen. You didn’t allow anything, you initiated it, she told herself as she pushed through the door.

Thankfully no one was in the hallway. It was still early in the morning as far as patient treatment went, and the lights were still dim. She went quickly to her office to grab a change of clothes. She would shower in the locker room and get ready for morning rounds.
