Page 71 of Plaything

I also had four men who I wanted to fuck me, so hopefully, this outfit would speed up that process.

Reesia wore light-wash jeans and a white crop top, subtly showcasing her curves. Her hair was down, half her blonde hair tied back with a pink bow.

She eyed my outfit, “You look lovely,” she gushed, folding her hands in front of her. “Don’t let Niko feed you; we’re getting coffee on the way.”

Behind her, Niko gave me a sheepish smile. I guess they’d already had this conversation. Comfortably dressed in sweatpants and a t-shirt, he gestured to the food he’d made. “Are you hungry? I made eggs—”

“Well, I’m making her donuts and coffee,” Reesia shot back, sending him a scolding look.

I laughed at the two. “Coffee sounds great.” I could have Niko’s food anytime, and I appreciated Reesia going out of her way to be friendly. Granted, she was very straightforward with her friendship.

I’d never say anything out loud, but I didn’t necessarily think of Reesia as a friend. I knew she had declared, ‘We’re going to be friends, ‘ but it wasn’t that easy for me. I could be friendly, but friends was more than a word.

I was really looking forward to today. I wanted to get to know her; she was my insight into their world. After all, Reesia was their friend. She seemed nice, and I hoped that a friendship would blossom. People say opposites attract, and she seemed to be the opposite of me.

She was outspoken and very extroverted. I was reserved and entirely an introvert. She was bright and giddy, and I was constantly a dark, nervous wreck.

“Good morning, Odette,” Aiden greeted as he lingered by the kitchen door. Tiredness was laced in his tone, and he looked slightly taken aback by Reesia’s presence in our kitchen. He probably wouldn’t have worn a shirt even if he knew she was planning on picking me up so early. I was quickly learning that he was most comfortable in shorts.

“Hi,” I smiled.

He tilted his head, “Come talk to me for a second,” he instructed.

Nerves filled my entire body. Nothing, and I mean nothing good, ever followed that statement. Did I do something? My mind raced with every conversation we’d ever had. Nitpicking through my memories, I couldn’t think of anything that stood out.

I turned to look at Reesia, but she was happily typing away on her phone, unbeknownst to my inner implosion. Niko, however, seemed to notice my caution. He gave me an encouraging smile, nodding behind me to follow Aiden.

His cheery smile helped a bit. I exited the kitchen and saw Aiden sitting on one of the living room sofas. I approached slowly. “I feel like I just got called to the principal’s office,” I admitted before taking a seat on the cushion next to him. Hoping my joke lessened any tension, I watched him for a reaction.

He gently shook his head, giving me a soft smile, “I just wanted to catch you before you left,” he explained.

“What’s up?” I asked, noticing a few pieces of paper in his hands.

He looked relaxed as he rested against the back of the couch, quickly making my nerves disappear. “I wanted to give you this now; that way, you have time to think and ask any questions you might have,” he handed me the paper.

I unfolded it, revealing many words that were both familiar and unfamiliar to me as my eyes skimmed the page. There were so many different... kinks? I assumed that was what this list was. Beside each ‘kink’ was a box marked yes, maybe, and no. There were also a few other sections on the paper with more specific questions.

My cheeks flushed pink as I looked up at him, “I don’t know what a lot of these things are,” I admitted.

“We are happy to answer any questions. You can ask Reesia too if you want. This isn’t any of her business, but if you’re more comfortable asking her about some of these things, you can,” he said.

I let my eyes skim the page again. Maybe asking Reesia would be less embarrassing than asking my professors. I folded the paper and put it in my purse for later.

I was having a hard time meeting his calculating eyes. The list was huge and included things I couldn’t even imagine listed. “Is that... are you guys into all of that?” I asked, desperately trying not to sound judging or nervous. I assumed they’d reviewed this list and only put things they were willing to do on it before presenting it to me. If that was the case, I had bad news for them because anything that involved a fist was off the table.

A slight chuckle left his lips as he watched me, “No, absolutely not. There’s actually many things on that list that we’d never do,” he assured. Thank goodness! “This is for you to fill out so we know what you want to try, uninfluenced by our desires,” he spoke clearly. “It’s also important to note that there are a lot of things that aren’t on the list. I left some lines for you at the bottom to fill in things that aren’t listed.”

My shoulders slightly dropped, tension unraveling at his explanation. “That makes me feel a lot better. When’s the assignment due, professor?” I teased.

Keeping his demeanor matched with my own, he returned a slight chuckle.

“I just have one very important question.” I kept my tone serious as I stared at him. He mimicked my attitude, straightening up, looking intrigued. “Will this be graded?” I grinned, pleased with myself that I returned the mini heart attack he gave me earlier. “Or is it purely extra credit? Because I—”

His lips were on mine in moments. My eyes fell closed, my teasing long gone.

Whenever I imagined a kiss with Aiden, I imagined it rough and needy. I was right. While his lips were soft in texture, there would never be a mistake about who was in control. His hand held the side of my neck, drawing me closer to him.

My hands rested on his thigh, supporting my weight as I savored his taste. Just as a slight moan was about to escape my throat, he pulled away gently.
