By the time it was over, Sadie was sobbing as loudly as Allie was sure she had been, and it took more than a quick hug like Hayleigh had gotten to calm her down. When her sobbing had finally turned to whimpers and sniffles, Master Derek ducked his head down and said something low so only she could hear. Sadie sniffled loudly, but a bright smile spread across her face a second before she threw her arms around his neck and squeezed.
Hopping off his lap, she pulled her pajamas up and turned to her friends. “I’m really sorry I got you both in trouble.”
It took all of half a second for Allie and Hayleigh to rush forward and throw their arms around her, assuring her it was all right and they weren’t even mad. Allie just managed to bite her tongue before insisting the spanking hadn’t really hurtthatmuch, because she wasn’t sure Master Derek wouldn’t take it as a challenge.
“All right, girls. Time for bed.” Master Derek ushered them down the hall, reminding Allie a bit of a mama duck herding her babies across the street. He tucked them each into their sleeping bags, and to Allie’s surprise, gave them each a quick kiss on the forehead before telling them they had thirty minutes and then it was lights out for the night.
Snuggled into her cozy “bed” for the night, Allie turned to her friends. “Thank you for asking if we could have a sleepover, Sadie. This was the best day ever.”
“Even though you got spanked?” Sadie asked with a giggle.
“Especially ‘cuz I got spanked. Twice!”
“Since you enjoy it so much, you can have mine when Daddy comes to pick me up.” Sighing heavily, Hayleigh rolled onto her back to stare up at the ceiling.
Guilt wormed its way into Allie’s tummy. “If it would help, I could tell Michelle that’s the rule for everyone and get her to give me an extra spanking, too.”
“Nah, that would be lying which is even worse than just getting in trouble. Besides, with all the you-know-what stress, all these spankings have actually helped me relax more than I have in weeks. I guess I kinda needed it.” Hayleigh’s nose wrinkled, like she wasn’t exactly happy about that realization.
“Is your Daddy going to be really mad?” Allie asked.
“No.” The corners of Hayleigh’s mouth twitched. “He’ll pretend like he is, because he’s supposed to be the big, bad, grouchy Chef. But in reality, he’s a big ole softie. I love him so much.”
“That sounds like Shelly. At work, she has to be all tough or else the guys won’t take her seriously. And sometimes she’s like that at home when I’ve really messed up. But for the most part, she’s a lot nicer than she lets on.”
“How did you guys meet?” Sadie asked, her eyes sparkling with genuine interest.
“We grew up together, and I think I was always a little in love with her, but I just figured that was how everyone felt about their best friend, you know? Anyway, we both dated in high school and some in college, and that was fun.”
“So how did you go from best friends to dating?” Hayleigh was sitting up now, apparently fascinated by the tale.
“Michelle needed practice.” The memory still gave Allie butterflies in her tummy. “We both knew we were kinky when we were in high school, and we thought we were both submissives. But then Michelle thought she might like to try topping someone, so I offered to let her practice on me. It was just supposed to be a fun thing, and then it turned into like, a stress relief thing for both of us.” Allie paused, mostly for dramatic effect, but partially because remembering always brought a flood of emotions. “But then I failed a really big mid-term because I went out partying the night before and I was super hung over on test day.”
“Uh-oh,” Hayleigh and Sadie said in unison.
“Yeah. After the test I went straight to her dorm and had a whole meltdown about how I was sure I’d failed and eventually told her the whole story and she offered to punish me so maybe it wouldn’t happen again.”
“Did it work?” Hayleigh asked, wide-eyed.
“Oh, yeah. It was a little awkward at first, but we’d been ‘practicing’ for weeks, so she knew what I liked and what I didn’t like, and she used all that knowledge to make me regret ever even looking at a bottle of alcohol.”
Sighing dreamily, as if it was the most romantic thing she’d ever heard, Sadie asked, “And then you lived happily ever after?”
“No. We both still dated guys off and on, until one night Michelle was spanking me and she just stopped in the middle of it and told me she didn’t think we should play together anymore.”
“What?” Hayleigh’s shriek of disbelief echoed around the room, and a moment later Master Derek poked his head in the room.
“Girls, you don’t have to go to bed just yet, but you need to keep it down.”
“Yes, Sir,” they all three chanted together.
When the door closed behind him, Hayleigh and Sadie turned to Allie, nervous excitement rolling off them in waves. “What happened? Why did she say you couldn’t play together anymore?” Hayleigh asked in a loud whisper.
“She wouldn’t say, not at first. It took me forever to get her to tell me what was going on. Finally, she broke down crying and told me she wanted more than just being my friend, but that she was scared I would freak out and hate her. Which, obviously, I didn’t.”
“Poor Michelle.” Sadie shook her head, her expression sympathetic. “That has to be scary, telling your best friend you have feelings for them.”
“Yup. And honestly, I didn’t even realize I had those same feelings until she confessed and then it was like a light bulb went off in my head. And it’s been just the two of us ever since.”
