To wire two 6-volt batteries so that they end up producing 12 volts you need to wire them in series. To do that you need to connect the load to the positive terminal of battery # 1. Connect the negative terminal of battery # 1 to the positive terminal of battery # 2. Ground the negative terminal of battery # 2.
I have produced a diagram showing the connections for you.
