“Please feel free to let me know if this is inappropriate or just poorly timed, but I would like to introduce you to Tabitha and see if you are a…” He paused, glancing between the two of us and then back to Tabitha before shrugging. “An available Daddy?”
It was obvious asking if Harper was asingleDaddy would’ve been stupid at this point.
Her companion was at least a bit confused about how to address us, but Tabitha just grinned and bounced and hid behind one hand again. “Boo.”
Clearly, her little side was on the little end of the spectrum.
Perfect for Harper, but what would she do about me?
Letting Happy Daddy take the wheel, I gave him a smirk and a sidelong glance that had Tabitha giggling again.
At least she seemed to enjoy the grumpy sunshine trope?
Harper laughed like she was the funniest thing he’d ever seen, which just tickled her even more but had her companion rolling his eyes. When Happy Daddy managed to stop making her giggle, he finally nodded. “Yes, I’m a Daddy and I would love to meet a sweet little girl. This is my partner, Gaylen.”
Leaning in dramatically, he gave a bad stage whisper. “He’s cranky and needs a nap.”
Damn right.
She didn’t take offense, though, giggling and nodding and putting her finger up to her lips. “Shh…”
She was going to end up being his partner in crime. I had to fight a strong urge to tell her no goats, but I wasn’t sure I was in the mood to explain that ridiculous sentence.
“Good girl.” Happy Daddy winked, which had her smiling even wider and swinging her companion’s hand. “So ignore the grumpy Dom and why don’t you have your friend tell us more about you?”
Bouncing, she nodded and pulled the guy’s hand. He sighed again, which I was starting to be able to relate to. “Tabitha is a single little who is looking for a Daddy.”
Glancing between the three of us again, he shrugged and continued. “She’s never been in a relationship with two men, but based on her current reading choices, I don’t think she’d have an issue with it.”
He ignored her wicked giggle and continued like it was an everyday kind of conversation. “As you’ve probably guessed, her little side is fairly young, although the age varies, and she’s mischievous.”
Good information… but who the fuck was he?
“And what does Miss Tabitha like to play?” Harper shifted so he was sitting on the edge of the couch and smiled at her even though the question was directed to her companion. “There’s lots of toys here tonight.”
“You may take her to play with the tea party set up or the ball pit. She’d enjoy either. You may not play any kind oflet’s see if the little is wetgames and her clothes stay on.” His dryly delivered answer as he gestured toward her knee-length dress had me wanting to smile even though it wouldn’t have been appropriate.
This was weirder than any date we’d ever been on and I wasn’t even sure it was a date yet.
“Those are perfectly reasonable boundaries and I’m sure you’d be able to help with anything she needs.” Harper’s vague inclusion of the guy had him nodding but still not explaining who he was.
“Once I know where you’re going to be, I’ll hang out near there but I won’t interfere unless something goes wrong. Her safeword to stop everything is banana.” Before he could explain that one, she made a face.
Leaning closer to Harper, she made a gagging sound that had the peanut gallery trying not to snicker. “Squishy.”
Since I happened to agree with her, I nodded as Happy Daddy spent the next few seconds trying not to laugh. “Agreed. That’s a good safeword. We both use oatmeal for a similar reason.”
And because he’d been stubborn as fuck and wanted somethingpersonalinstead of just using stoplight colors.
She nodded eagerly and made another face. “Slimy.”
“Oh yes.” My answer, and maybe hers, had her companion rolling his eyes.
That set off her and Harper so they were both snickering. Companion guy, whose name I still didn’t think I’d heard yet, shook his head before focusing back on the logical parts of the conversation. “Where would you like to play?”
Her head bopped side to side as she considered the question like she’d been asked if she wanted to share state secrets. “Sit. Balls.”
Sitended up meaning that she was going to sit on Harper’s lap because she let go of her friend’s hand and plopped down on Harper. He just beamed like she’d given him the best present ever and carefully wrapped his arms around her without holding her too tightly. “Sitting is a very good idea.”
