her. 
    When we got here she wanted me to sit in the waiting room while they worked on her arm.  Since there was no fucking way I was going to sit in the waiting room, I told her I was pretty sure they weren’t going to strip her naked to cut her cast off.  That won me a short lived flare of her emerald eyes I got a hint of yesterday during the cookie incident.  But she quickly shut it down with a resigned sigh while muttering, “fine”.  But that flare reminded me of her blazing personality that used to be Leigh.  She always had a quick temper, but not the kind that turned her into a bitch.  No, it was the kind of temper you could sit back and enjoy because it was fucking cute as hell to see her get pissed about something. 
    I’ve known Leigh since elementary school where she and Gabby were thick as thieves, but they were a year behind me in school.   Leigh didn’t have much of a home life so my aunt and uncle, Gabby’s parents, all but adopted her.   They took Leigh on vacations, helped her with homework and even assisted her in navigating college applications, financial aid and scholarships since she was the first in her family to go to college.  Leigh’s mom never gave a shit about her and I’m not sure her dad was ever a part of her life. 
    Now, Gabby might be my cousin but I’m not blind to the fact the two of them together in high school were the subjects of many teenage boys’ wet dreams.  I made sure every male in that school knew Gabby was off limits and I bundled Leigh into that as well.  Although at the time, I told myself it was just because she was Gabby’s best friend, but I think it would have made me crazy to have anyone touch her.  I was a teenage boy too and certainly no angel, I knew exactly what I was protecting them from.  I never allowed myself to go there with Leigh because of Gabby.  By the time I came back after law school she had tied herself to her asshole husband and it was too late for me to stake my claim.  She might not be ready, but this is my opportunity and I’m taking it.  I plan to help her work through her shit and only hope it will go faster than her going at it on her own.  But I’m sure as hell not missing this shot with Leigh. 
    She’s tall but thin, I usually go for women with more tits and ass.  Even though hers are small, she has enough to make her feminine in a way that makes her delicate, even tiny despite her height.  Her long legs and lean body always carry her in a graceful way.  A way that makes you watch her as she moves through a room, soaking up the sight of her so it’s burned on your brain until the next time you’re granted the opportunity.  Her light blonde hair is long and sexy the way it falls around her face, shoulders and back.  Her milky skin only enhances how bright her emerald eyes shine.  But, it’s the way she moves and those eyes I’ve allowed myself to think about for the first time in a long time.  Adding to that all that is Leigh:  loving, kind, selfless, loyal.  Any man would want that in his bed for a lifetime and be willing to put in the effort and patience to get it, which is exactly what I’m going to do.  Nevertheless, I plan on giving her a good nudge here and there along the way. 
    Now, I’m not a patient person by nature.  I’m not even a gentle guy by nature.  And I’m sure as hell not a soft spoken man.  Am I a nice guy?  Sure.  But these new and unwarranted tendencies are all pouring out of me in spades with Leigh over the last few weeks.  Maybe it’s because I read the police reports and medical records.  Maybe it’s because I’ve known her for so long and even wanted to protect her when we were young.  But I think it’s because I want to be exactly the opposite of what she’s known.  I want to be whatever she needs right now and give her everything she wants down the road.  Whatever it is, it has shocked even me because it’s coming easy and natural.  Yesterday she gave me
