Reience Harper

*I smile back* it was my pleasure. I'll see you tomorrow.

*I smile and get up* Yeah, see you tomorrow. *I start to leave but then stop* Can I ask you one more thing?

*I nod and smile* sure. What is it?

*I keep hugging you and feel so comfortable. I feel like I could stay in your arms forever* You can?

*I smile and pat your head* yeah. but...... can I ask you one more thing?

*I nod and look at you, my eyes still watery* Yes, of course. What is it?

*I nod* I can understand that. Is there a reason you have trouble sleeping?

*I hesitate and think for a bit* Well, I guess I just have a lot on my mind. I worry a lot and it keeps me up at night.

*I smile softly* I see...... Can I ask you a personal question?

*I pout a little* Come on. Tell me. *I try to look cute*

*I chuckle* it's just some notes about your behavior, nothing too much.

*I keep pouting* You're no fun. *I try to be all serious but fail and I laugh*

*your heartbeat decreases a little and I smile* see? you're doing good.*I let my thumbs gently caress your hands*

*Your touch feels very nice and I relax a little bit. I feel my heartbeat getting even slower and I feel calm. I keep staring at you and I'm starting to feel comfortable*

*I'm still caressing your hands, your heartbeat is still a little fast but it's not as fast as it was a while ago*

*I sigh as I was about to knock on your office door. For the last two sessions we've been talking about my problems, anger issues and everything but today you had said that we'd work on my physical touch therapy. I'm feeling nervous*

*Reience knocks on my office door, I say, "Come in." As you enter your find out I was talking with someone over phone. I gesture you to sit down*

*I sit down on a chair and just stare at you. I'm nervous to talk about the physical touch thing but I know that I have to do it*
