I'll spare you my theories on your metabolic rate for now. Your math adds up, but I'm flattered I'm accounting for such a high percentage.
"Very okay." That is encouraging.

[thiwp]

"very okay" might've been putting it lightly, if i'm being very honest.

[harrisonwells]

Even more interesting.
I'd be lying if I denied it might have been the highlight of my evening.
Or that I hadn't considered it again.

[thiwp]

is it really unexpected, though?
you're a great kisser
the highlight, really? i dunno
that birthday cake was pretty incredible

[ sent a short while after ]

i've been thinking about it, too

[harrisonwells]

I'm glad you think so. I would say the same.

And what is it you've been thinking about?
Try to be specific.

[thiwp]

[ it takes her a little bit to respond, mostly because she had to get up and close her bedroom door. nobody's home, but, better safe than sorry ]

it's not like that night was a blur or anything, i can remember details
but i've been thinking about what it'd be like to slow things down a little bit too
the fact that we were rushed was pretty fun, but taking our time could be too

[harrisonwells]

I don't think I'd mind at all taking my time with you, Ms. Stacy.

[thiwp]

tease.

[harrisonwells]

Oh, not yet.
You don't get to where I've been by being impatient.

[thiwp]

i'm actually the most impatient person
when it comes to anything, but especially the idea of kissing you again like i did the other night
you might have to help me learn how to slow it down a bit

[harrisonwells]

It's not always easy.
But it is almost always better in the end.
Delayed gratification can make you want something even more than you ever would have wanted it if you'd just taken it right away.

[thiwp]

but what if i want it really, really bad?

[ just sort of staring at her phone and blushing like an idiot. she can't handle this! oh god why did she think she'd be able to handle this? can't handle it in a good way though, yeah. so she'll keep playing along. ]

[harrisonwells]

[It's tempting, very tempting, to answer that question with a call. He knows the effect his voice has, he just doesn't usually care about it. But that would undermine the exact lesson he's imparting now, namely patience.]

Imagine what needing it will feel like.
Good night, Ms. Stacy.

[thiwp]

[ o m g ]

g'night, dr. wells.
