After lunch discussion

Sitting propped up on some pillows as he relaxed on the bed. His work laptop to his right with a partially written email and Amanda to his left, who was laying horizontally on the bed. Her feet hanging off the side of the mattress and her head laying on his chest, with her long blonde hair spilling over over him as he ran the fingers of one of his hands through the long mane. Amanda looking up to the ceiling watching the fan spin overhead, every once in a while looking up to Derrick’s strong jaw. Earlier she had sent a text to April, asking if she could clear schedule for an impromptu half day of work. She was her subordinate, but she felt some guilt for taking time to herself, like it was selfish. The reply would be comical if it wasn’t sadly true.

April: With you taking Wed off and a half day today this will be the first paycheck you don’t lose PTO. I know you are aware you can only accrue so much.

April: As your friend I say, enjoy your day and get it girl!

April: As your admin I say, get your promotion, go away and leave me in charge. :)

With the rest of the day off she was enjoying just relaxing after sex, more sex a great meal and more sex. She was pretty sure if they went another round she would have to get Derrick some gatorade to properly hydrate. The sound of the clicking keys on his laptop stopped and then she felt him gently kiss her forehead. “Mandy, I have to say. Today was, well every second with you has been incredible.” He said stumbling a bit on his words, a bit of nervousness in them that she hadn’t heard before. “For me that all felt amazing, but I haven’t been with anyone since…” Derrick paused for a second before continuing and Amanda stayed silent so he could get out what he was struggling with. “Well, I haven’t actually dated anyone since before Candace. Was everything okay?”

Reaching up Amanda touched his stubble covered cheek, letting her long nails gently run across his skin. “Was I not clear with saying the lords name, or yours.. Or what ever else happened to come out of my mouth?” She said with a small grin teasing him. “More like screaming at times, but umm yeah. Communication is important to me and I wanted to make sure I didn’t do something you didn’t like and thought if I did something you liked and wished I had done more of it.. That sort of thing.” She had seen him commanding, seen him being playful, seen him being flirtatious, but the only time she had seen him **** is when he was talking about his daughter and how he really didn’t know what he was doing and just trying his best. This was close to that vulnerability. He had just rocked her world more than once and was then nervous about it. “Derrick, that was amazing. Everything you did was to my liking.” She said as sweetly as she could to reassure him. “I would say we could talk about things we do like and what we don’t if you weren’t going away, unless you have any more steam left in your engine.” She wasn’t partially ready to go again, but Amanda felt like sounding a little flirty.

“Ah.. not right now.” He said bashfully. “Going away or not, that is something I would love to hear about. Are you okay with talking about something like that?” Amanda thought for a second and wasn’t sure if she ever had a boyfriend that wanted to discuss something like this before. “You know what, I am okay with it, but only if you give as good as you get.” Moving his hand from her hair to wrapping around her side Derrick nodded. “Deal, but ladies first.” Moving her right arm so she could entwine their fingers together she smiled up at him, each looking into one another's eyes. “Well, a previous boyfriend had us try bondage. It was surprisingly thrilling to be bound up with the cuffs and ball gag at another's mercy. It was kinda hot… but I do not enjoy being spanked. I also do not mind giving a blow job, it just is not my favorite thing. Though points if you groom.” She said that last part pointedly to Derrick before continuing. “I am also not a fan of swallowing or umm wearing a man’s cum.” Derrick moved his thumb across the bridge of her hand listening and waiting for her to pause long enough for his turn. “I have never done bondage, one way or the other. But if it is something you enjoy I would be happy to try it. No spanking though, not even a little pat as you walk by to let you know you are doing a good job?” Right away she knew he was back to his playful self, but she wanted to make sure the message was clear. “Not if you want to keep your hand.” The voice was monotone and left no room for any other interpretation. “I do like my hand, but you do have a great ass, might be worth it.” He brought is free hand up to eye level turning it this way and that. “No, can’t risk it even, but the temptation is real.” They both shared a little laugh before he continued. “I can absolutely do better at grooming down there, this was umm just not planned. I have never cummed on a woman’s face or anything like that, so no worries there. Though I do think it is well hot for someone to swallow if I’m honest. It also sounds like you like taking a submissive role, have you ever tried being more dominant in the bedroom?”

Amanda’s gaze looked up past Derrick to the spinning fan overhead again. The conversation didn’t feel uncomfortable like she thought it would when she considered telling Bailey about the spanking he seemed to enjoy giving, she did it for him and figured there was no harm, but this felt good to discuss things. “At work I tell people what to do all day and never thought a man would like being told what to do in bed. I know about mistresses and the whip thing and what not, but that was just never me. I suppose I could be one top and control the pace, that does feel good and for the right man I could swallow every once in a while.” The two continued there talk for a few more minutes before were interrupted by a text to Derrick. “It looks like we need to head back to work. The girls are leaving the mall and Candace will be headed back here to get ready for tonight.”

WIth that the two got out of bed and started to get themselves back into proper work attire as quickly as they could to make sure Derrick’s daughter didn’t catch them or both the girls if Bailey was with her. It wasn’t until they were on the way back to work when Derrick asked a question that caused Amanda to think on her feet. “I have been told I can be strict with my rules for Candace, but I’m surprised with everything you have told me about Bailey that you don’t have her text you when she is going somewhere. Shit, I am not trying to back seat parent. I have read half a dozen books on parenting as a single dad and I still feel like I don’t know what I’m doing half the time.” Patting his hand Amanda smiled at Derrick as she tried to come up with an answer. Latching onto his backseat parenting would be the easy option, but a meaner route than she wanted to take with him. “Sometimes I think of Bailey as older than a teenager and it gives her more freedom, something I didn’t have growing up. My mother wanted to know if I was going to cross the street, but let Megan do what she wanted so long as she came home before dark. Other times she knows she should be better at communicating with me, but she isn’t the ahh… forward thinking type.” The statement had been mostly true and it looked like Derrick bought it, and while it was good that he did. She felt terrible about it at the same time. Today had been amazing and part of her hated that she knew it was fleeting, but another part was happy, because it meant she no longer had to be so dishonest. “I get it, we always want to give what we didn’t have and don’t worry about Bailey. I’m sure she will be fine with you by her side, I know she has a lot of other gifts to make up for what she lacks.” He said the last part as tactfully as he could.
