On the couch

You slowly come to your senses and realize you were sleeping on Ashley’s couch. Last night’s events come rushing back to you, and you realize you have to make things right with Ashley. “I can’t have her thinking I cheated on her again! I don’t want to lose her! I love her!” you boldly declare using your inner voice.

Suddenly you feel a pair of hands on your shoulders and you are back in the present moment instantly. Turning your head, you see Ashley’s smiling face looking down at you, her hands gently massaging you.

“Wake up, Doug,” she says softly.

You thank your lucky stars that she doesn’t seem to be too pissed at you over what happened last night.

Suddenly you sense that something is wrong. Your wrists, something is binding your wrists together. You struggle to pull your arms out from behind your back only to feel metal edges digging into your skin painfully.

“Relax Doug,” Ashley says as she straddles your back, continuing to massage your shoulders, “I got up early this morning and did some thinking.”

“And I decided that I our current arrangement just isn’t going to work out. I talked to Amy and my mother about this, and we realized that it would be best for you to stay with me 24/7, as a live in ****.”

“S-****?”

“Yeah, that way you don’t have make any more decisions. I’ll decide what goes, and you don’t have to worry about it,” she explained, making the whole insane idea sound quite normal.

“And my mom already spoke to your mom while you were sleeping. A couple guys from Bella’s are even going to be delivering a cage later today. That way you can sleep at the foot of my bed in your cage tonight,” Ashley continued on.

“Unless you are extra good and I decide to let you sleep in my bed, that is!” she chuckled.
