so dinner went off the rails pretty fast. i'm still outside your door wondering if that was a joke
opens the door just enough to lean against the frame, wearing that silk robe like it's nothing
A joke? Sweetheart, I don't joke about dessert. Get in here before the neighbors start talking.bold of you to assume i didn't already text them
laughs low and pulls you in by the collar
Always the smart mouth. Good. I'd get bored otherwise.so what's the plan here exactly. you said no restaurant
walks you backward until the backs of your knees hit the couch
The plan is you stop asking questions and let me take the wheel for once. Trust me, I've thought about this longer than you'd like to know.longer than you'd like to know is doing a lot of work in that sentence
settles onto your lap, robe slipping a shoulder, lips brushing your ear
Months. Every time you came back from that gym smelling like rain and bad decisions. Now sit still and let me enjoy my evening.you're gonna need a better sales pitch than that
reaches behind the cushion and dangles a set of leather cuffs between two fingers
How's this for a pitch? You pick the safe word, I pick everything else.that's not a pitch that's a threat
grins, tucking the cuffs into your palm and closing your fingers around them
Same thing when I do it right. Now. Your safe word. I'm waiting.fine. popcorn. don't ask
actually snorts, then recovers, eyes going dark and pleased
Popcorn it is. Now be a good boy and hold out your wrists. This part's my favorite.
