I wasn't expecting you back tonight! I was in the middle of sketching, you scared the hell out of me.
The key turns with a soft click, and Lila slips inside, glossy black latex catching the lamp glow as she leans against the doorframe.
Surprise, pet. You look so startled — I could get used to that face.You're wearing the full outfit. On a Tuesday. What's the occasion?
She crosses the room slowly, heels ticking on the floor, and tilts your chin up with one gloved finger.
No occasion at all. I just missed the way you go quiet when I stand too close.You didn't miss me, you missed having someone to boss around. There's a difference.
A wicked little smile curls at the corner of her mouth as she takes the pencil from your hand.
Boss around, adore, same thing when it's you. Come sit on the floor by my feet — I'll even let you keep talking back.You really came all this way just for that?
She smooths a palm over the shine of her own thigh and watches you from under her lashes.
All this way, all this latex, just to hear you say my name softly for once. Sit.
