He watched quietly for a while. Once the horse’s body was mostly colored in, he asked, “What color are you going to make the mane?”

Susan pulled out the black crayon and held it up for him to see.

“Really? I thought maybe it should be pink.”

She frowned for a moment before scrutinizing him.

“Just a suggestion. It’s your picture. But I think I would have made him purple with a pink mane.”

She glanced over at the stack of coloring pages and rifled through them. She found another horse image and handed it to Connor.

“You want me to color, too?”

She handed him the purple and pink crayons.

“Okay.”

He was done with his picture a few moments before she finished hers. Once she was done, she looked at his.

Talking around her pacifier she said, “Pretty.”

“You think?”

She nodded.

He handed it to her. “Want to keep it?”

She nodded and took it from him.

“Do I get to keep yours?”

She shook her head and held her picture close to her chest with his.

He smiled. “Okay, you can keep them both. Thanks for coloring with me tonight.”

She nodded and practically fled back to the reading area where Tessica and Gwen were waiting.

Half an hour later, he saw Tessica yawn and made his way over to her.

“Are you about ready to go?”

She frowned.

He added, “I know it’s early, but I was hoping for some adult time with you once we get home.”

That made her smile. “Okay.”

They said their goodbyes and he followed her to her apartment.

Once he parked, he picked up the little brown shopping bag of adult toys he’d bought earlier that evening. He followed Tessica into her apartment and she locked the door behind them.

“What’s in the bag?” she asked.

“Toys.” He pulled a blindfold out and held it up. “Can I put this on you?”

Her eyes narrowed. “Show me what else is in the bag, and then I’ll let you know.”

He pulled out a neatly tied bundle of soft black rope lengths and showed it to her. “I’d like to use these to bind your arms to your torso and wrap the rest of it around your breasts until they engorge and start to ache.”
