-- This is my first submission. As real life tends to be stranger and more exciting than fiction, this is one of many stories I want to tell about encounters and experiences I've had. I won't be writing these in any kind of chronological order which will hopefully mean no one will recognise me. However, if I do seem familiar, then please drop a note to say hi.
I've changed names and places to protect those involved, and I'm a little fuzzy on a few of the minor details, such as exact wording of conversations. This is not a nice tale of soft BDSM where the Dom realises the error of His ways and lets His sub top from the bottom. What happened to me was dark and violent, and I was only just eighteen. Be careful what you wish for, little ones. --
I was spitting venom as I applied my lipstick - dark, bloody red to match my mood. There was a reason I was born with green eyes and He had ignited the beast within me.
I'd sat like a good little submissive, sobbing uncontrollably but always saying 'yes, Master'. Ryan explained that He was going away for a weekend to spend time with another submissive.
I wasn't crying any more though, I told myself as my bottom lip quivered. I was going out clubbing with some friends and I would show Him that He was lucky to have me. One last look in the mirror confirmed I was the perfect little gothic princess - naturally dark chocolate hair pulled up into pigtails of ringlets, corset top pushing my small breasts up under my chin, scandalously short skirt showing off the tops of my trademark white stockings, striped knee-high socks and killer heels. I'd show Him, and myself, and everyone.
I was meeting Tom at the club, but I needed to pick up my second chaperone for the evening. Keegan was one of Ryan's closest friends and he'd been assigned the task of ensuring I didn't get into any trouble that night. I didn't mind too much, I liked Keegan a lot. He was much older than me, in his late thirties, short and stocky, heavily muscled, with a flaming ginger mohawk and tattoos from behind his ears down to his ankles - he was the polar opposite to my young, slender, dark haired Master. While Ryan was calm and quiet, His best friend was brash and loud, known for his violent temper and sudden outbursts, but to the girls in our group he was like a cuddly teddy with endless patience.
I pulled up outside Keegan's house and tapped the horn. He was soon piling in my metro, filling the little car with swearing and a thick Sheffield accent. A few moments were spent in a signature Keegan big ginger bear hug and rolling two slender cigarettes - mine with a menthol filter - before we sped off into the dusky summer evening.
Keegan flipped through my CD collection as we flew up the slip road onto the dual carriageway. 'So, Ryan went off to see Ellie then,' he said out of the corner of his mouth not occupied with rollie.
'Yup,' I spat, 'fucked off until midday tomorrow.' I blushed and glanced over at him, embarrassed at my outburst. 'I mean, it's not like He's mine or anything, I've got no say, it's up to Him.'
'He's a wanker,' Keegan slid a Throwdown album into the CD player and reclined his seat back further.
'No, He's not, it's not like that between us,' I trailed off.
'I know exactly what it's like between you two, Penny.' He had his head tilted towards the window and watched me from the corners of his eyes, 'Ryan isn't exactly discreet about what goes on.'
I really did blush then. 'In that case, you know what I want,' I retorted.
'Sure do,' he smiled widely and pulled his feet to rest up on the dash, 'you want a night out to let your hair down. Tom and I will look after you, we'll have a great night and you'll forget your troubles.'
I returned his infectious grin. 'Amen to that!'
Tom was waiting at the club when we arrived. He was hard to miss with his plus-sized frame and impressively groomed goatee. I was swept off my feet for my second hug of the evening, Tom growling into my stomach. After the customary greetings we headed inside.
The venue was dark, sticky and played just the right combination of our version of cheese; Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine, Disturbed, some Blink 182. I had a lot of male attention to bolster my ego and Tom and Keegan were kept busy. It was like going out with body guards - whenever I was just starting to have fun grinding up against a bearded biker or a tattooed goth, the poor guy was inevitably whisked away by the collar and given a stern talking to.
By about one in the morning, all of the interesting guys had been warded off and Tom, Keegan and I were outside chatting and smoking. Keegan took out his phone. 'Time to be heading home sugar.'
'Awwwwuh Uncle Kee, do we have to? It's really early.' I pleaded, pouting and twirling a pigtail around my fingers.
'Don't push it, Penny, else Ryan will tan your hide when he gets back.' Keegan's face was stern.
I turned to Tom. 'Tom, Keegan is mean, you won't let him take me will you?'
Tom laughed, 'If Kee says it's time to go, I think we'd better do as he says.'
I stamped my feet but Tom and Keegan grabbed my hands and I started shuffling towards the car park.
Keegan took my car keys out of his pocket and nudged me to the passenger side. 'I'm driving sugar.'
'Think you can handle miss bratty-pants?' called Tom over the top of the car.
'Yeah, Ryan said she was to stay at mine so someone is keeping an eye on her tonight until he gets back tomorrow.' Keegan shrugged, 'apparently, I've got "babysitter" tattooed across my forehead.'
Tom shook his head. 'I feel for you buddy. See you in the week maybe.' He headed off towards his car.
I turned to Keegan. 'Ryan didn't tell me I had to stay at yours tonight.'
'He only just texted me,' he pulled his phone out of his pocket, 'did you want to see the text?'
I shook my head. 'No. But I want to drive. It's my car.'
Keegan sighed. 'It's late, I'm not going to have an argument with you. I prefer to drive when it's night time. Now hop in the passenger seat like a good girl.'
I fizzed. He just said the two words that can still to this day make me melt into a puddle of acquiescence. I bowed my head and slid into the passenger seat when he opened the door.
Keegan flopped into the drivers seat and adjusted the mirrors. 'Sugar, roll us some ciggies and let's get going.'
'Sure, Kee.' I fished tobacco, filters and papers out of the glove compartment as he pulled away headed for his place. Normal conversation resumed as my little car hurtled through the night. I pulled out my pigtails and let my hair hang loosely round my shoulders. It was comfortable, I always felt safe with Keegan, his loud Northern accent and easy laugh were soothing. I could almost forget that Ryan was two hundred miles away screwing some other girl's brains out.
Keegan rolled the car to a stop in a parking space outside his house.
'Hey, Kee, I'm fine, really, I don't want to be an imposition. I can go back and stay at my own place tonight.' I smiled.
'Don't be silly, Penny, it's not a problem at all.' He unbuckled his seat belt and popped the buckle on mine.
'To be honest, I could do with some alone time. Take stock of things, you know? Thanks so much for tonight, it was really fun. Took my mind off Ryan and everything.' I could feel myself welling up. I needed to be alone, now.
