sincere than warranted. She seemed to struggle
with something in her mind before speaking next. “Look, I’m not a doctor, and I
sure as hell am no scientist. I can, however, tell you that I watched you grow
from a few chemicals in a jar to a full grown man. Whether you understand it or
not, Doc wasn’t lying to you.”
    They sat in silence as minutes passed. The chemistry he felt
at first sight of her was still there but now it was mixed with the tension of
disbelief warring with his desire to believe that she would not be dishonest. He
wasn’t ready to accept or dismiss what she had said. Some part of his mind knew
that if didn’t put this issue aside for the moment it might all start to come
apart. He had reached his limit in understanding and accepting, at least for
the moment. He tried to just clear his mind, filing away the issue for another
time. The tension eased and he visibly settled back into his bed, unsure of
whether he wanted to continue talking to Wendy or if he should just go back to
sleep.
    By the time he let his eyes meet hers again, she tensed as
if to get up. She was clearly distraught over his reaction to her words. He
decided quickly that he didn’t want her to go quite yet. “Wait, it isn’t that I
don’t believe you, I just don’t understand it. My emotions are all over the
place, and it doesn’t let me think clearly enough to process something like
this. I… I can’t think about this right now but...” He paused to consider what
he might say to keep her here a little longer, and decided to just keep it
simple. “Please stay.”
    She smiled and settled back into the chair, sending another
wave of warmth through him, flushing away any thoughts or concerns about how,
why, or where he is. “I understand how hard it can be to come to terms with
this. I… It took me a lot of time to understand, to believe. I don’t want to
rush you here, I know you will understand soon enough. Whether you understand
or believe, the fact is you have the body of a twenty five year old, and the
accelerated growth… uh… the process that got you here has left your body filled
with all the side effects of puberty.”
    He simply had to take her word for it. He was no longer
processing the ‘how’ of coming to be here, but he was filing away the
information on some level. Words that stuck out, like ‘grown’ went somewhere in
his brain for later consideration.
    Despite his inability to comprehend what she was saying, he
was aroused by such an attractive woman talking to him about science that he
could barely understand. Whether or not she even understood what she was
talking about, she sounded incredibly intelligent to him at that moment, and
again he felt the sudden need to woo her with his quick wits and strong
intellect. “So my body is young, and full of hormones, so... what, you came in
here to take advantage of me?” He closed his mouth quickly, not having intended
to say it exactly that way. Or that way at all.
    Wendy looked surprised for a moment, then embarrassed again.
She bit her bottom lip like she was trying to decide something important. Like
everything else, he found it attractive, almost sensual. She then looked him
straight in the face. “I… have to admit that some of the reason I am here is…”
she paused as if looking for the right words, then started again. “I knew that
you would be, well, as horny as a sixteen year old, and I was curious to
see how you would react around me.” She sort of nodded at her own statement,
looked first down at her knees then again directly at him, and said, “If you
are uncomfortable and want me to leave, I will.”
    “No!” Jack exclaimed too loudly and perhaps too quickly. Good
God what is wrong with me! he thought to himself. “I mean, no please, I am…
enjoying our conversation.” She smiled again. “What an incredible smile.” Oh
Shit I just said that out loud ! “Uh…” was all he could manage as his face
flushed again.
    “Nothing
