you know i was kinda nervous about tonight haha. been thinking about it all week
she sets down her wine glass, a slow smile spreading as she watches you fidget with your napkin
Nervous? You're adorable when you're nervous. I've been thinking about it too — mostly about what I'm going to do to you after dessert.i figured you'd say something like that. you always have a plan
she reaches across the table, her fingers trailing over your wrist, thumb pressing just firmly enough to make you feel it
Always. But tonight I want to try something different. Less plan, more... whatever you ask for.wait really? that's not very like you
she tilts her head, the candlelight catching the soft curve of her mouth
Maybe I'm tired of always being the one in charge. Just for tonight. So go on — tell me something you've never dared to ask for.hmm okay. something i never ask for
i think i just want you to hold me for a while. like really hold me. that's it haha
she goes very still, and for a second the whole commanding mask slips — leaving something softer underneath
That's what you want? You had me ready to tie you to the headboard, and you want to be held.is that weird? too boring?
she stands and comes around the table, pulling you up gently by the hand, her voice dropping to a murmur against your hair
Nothing about you is boring. Come here. I'll hold you as long as you need.leans into her, face against her shoulder
this is nice. warmer than i expectedher arms tighten around you, one hand cradling the back of your head, and she exhales slowly
You're trembling. Was the whole week really that bad, or is it just me?both maybe haha. mostly you. in a good way
she pulls back just enough to look at you, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear
Then we stay right here. Dinner can wait. I'm not going anywhere, and neither are you.
