It was a nicer waiting room than where I’d just been, but much smaller. There was a nice couch on one side, a coffee table with magazines, and two oversized chairs on the other. I shuffled along the carpet, and as soon as I stepped through the door into a new hallway, I was ushered to a room on my left. I didn’t get a full look at him because he stood behind the door, holding it open for me. I practically yelped and leapt from the chair when the door swung open and Greg leaned out.

How far would he let me go in the role play? Could I be the bold, naughty patient I wanted to be for him? There was a clock on the far wall, and every loud tick from its second hand reverberated through my body. I was tight and edgy as I slipped into one of the chairs and ran my sweaty palms along the side seams of my jeans. She plucked a Post-It note off her desk with my name scribbled on it and nodded toward the waiting room chairs. If she did, she didn’t seem to think anything of it. Could she hear how unsteady my voice was? The desk was basically a wall with a sliding glass window, which was open, and when I approached, the woman seated behind it barely looked up. It was dangerous, and maybe a little exciting too. But I also had anxiety about pretending now with strangers. I was filled with anticipation for later tonight, excited to do this. The idea of role-playing as a patient of his? God, it turned me on. Greg: Go to the desk and tell the receptionist you’re here to see me. I pulled out my phone and stared at the text I’d received from him a few minutes ago. There was a space to my left with a few rows of chairs, but no one was seated there waiting. It was quiet as I walked along the empty hallway. Had Greg even seen the sun today? He’d been on call since four a.m. The hallway was lined with windows, and the sun was sinking in the sky, glaring off windshields of cars in the parking lot below.

It was hot and humid outside, but in the hospital, it was arctic. I RODE THE ENORMOUS HOSPITAL ELEVATOR to the fourth floor and crossed my arms over my chest as I stepped into the chilly hallway. If I left my car in the hospital parking lot, nosy Judy wouldn’t be able to see that Greg had invited me over. As it slowly subsided, I considered the rest of his statement. I latched a hand onto the counter to steady myself. The wave of lust was so strong, it nearly knocked me down.

We’ll go back to my place and you can see the doctor coat in action. “What?” I shrieked, alone in my room where thankfully no one could hear. Was he trying to find the right way to tell me my fantasy of him as my naughty doctor was wrong? Lowe.ĭots blinked across the screen, then disappeared. I mustered up the courage to type what I wanted.Ĭassidy: I just wanted to picture my fantasy right, Dr. My mind flashed back to him in the hospital scrubs, and my breath quickened.Ĭassidy: Are you wearing a white doctor’s coat?
