I’ve taken a chance on Aaron, and he’s taken a chance on me. Tonight everything between us is going to change.
Tonight is the night that I walk into the club on the arm of a Dom for the very first time.
I wonder what everyone’s going to say.
As it turns out, I don’t have to wait very long at all because Taylor, Hank, Belinda, Fiona, and Dax are all right inside the club when we enter. They turn to look at me, and none of them says a single thing at first. Their eyes go from my dress to Aaron and then back to the dress, and finally, they all look at me.
Fiona is the first to approach.
“Hello,” she says, speaking to Aaron and not to me. Smart subbie. Some Doms don’t like people talking to their submissive without their express permission. Even though Fiona is my friend, and even though she knows me perhaps better than Aaron does, she understands that he’s a new guy in my life.
“Hi,” Aaron says politely. “I’m Aaron.”
“Fiona,” she says, and she holds her hand out. Aaron shakes it and smiles at Fiona. “I’m friends with your submissive.”
“Ah, that’s lovely,” he looks at me and smiles. “It’s nice to know that Mallory has so many friends here.”
“May I have permission to speak with her?” Fiona asks.
“Of course,” Aaron says. Taylor catches his eye, indicating that he wants to have a word with Aaron. “Actually, on second thought, why don’t all of you submissives stay here,” Aaron says. “And I’ll be right back.” He gives me a kiss on the cheek, squeezes my hand, and then steps aside with Taylor. The two of them start speaking, and I can’t hear what they’re saying, but I’m almost instantly overwhelmed with hugs and acceptance and questions from the other submissives.
“What does this mean?”
“What’s with the dress?”
“Are you two exclusive?”
“Are you playing with anyone tonight?”
“Why didn’t you tell us?”
“When did this happen?”
“Okay, okay,” I say, laughing and shaking my hand. “First things first: it happened last weekend. No, we haven’t slept together. I don’t know if we’re exclusive and I don’t know what we’re doing tonight or if he wants to scene. The dress...well, tonight’s the first night with the dress.”
“You look incredible,” Belinda tells me.
“Truly beautiful,” Dax agrees.
“Thank you,” I blush, not really used to getting compliments or comments from other people. In the past, I’ve always sort of tried to just blend in.
Well, I can’t exactly do that in my current get-up, can I?
“He’s cute,” Belinda says.
“Really cute. Does he swing both ways?” Dax raises an eyebrow.
“Um, I’m not really sure,” I admit.
“I’m guessing you wouldn’t be into sharing,” Dax winks at me, and I shake my head, blushing.
“Is it horrible that I kind of want him all to myself right now?”
“It’s not horrible, sweetie.”
“I’m happy for you,” Hank says. He reaches out and takes my hand, squeezing it.“Although I guess this means that Taylor won’t be able to give you a spanking tonight,” he laughs.
“I don’t know about that,” I look over where Taylor and Aaron are talking. Their heads are close together. It almost looks like they’re scheming. “It kind of looks like they’re plotting.”
