Mostly the same

“You might as well start, you’ve known about her kink for a little longer so you must have had a chance to think it over.” Emma said, giving you the opportunity to speak first.

“Okay, but I don’t want you just agreeing with me if I say something you don’t like” you replied, hoping you wouldn’t influence her too much.

“You know I’d tell you if that was the case. I’m in this for the long haul and I don’t want any little resentments to start popping up. I’ll say the same back to you if you have anything you disagree with” Emma countered.

You had nothing you wanted to bring up with her as your life had been nothing but win after win recently and even the thought of complaining about something had never crossed your mind. Even now that you had the chance, there wasn’t anything at all that you could think of so you just shook your head and went back to talking about Izzy.

“I’m hoping that her level 1 has something different than everyone else so far but I don’t want to get my expectations up. Her kink does focus on being away from one another which seems to be the opposite of the usual KDK process. Maybe everyone’s kinks so far haven’t needed any special requirements and we have gotten lucky. Or unlucky depending on your opinion” you explained, the details derailing the conversation as you got thinking about other KDK conditions that could potentially exist.

“But what are you thinking for after her level-up? Best case and worst case?” Emma asked, bringing your attention back.

“Worst case, we can’t level her up any further and I keep in contact without trying to get her more involved. I’d still like her to be close to everyone in the future if it means she will get away from my father but in the worst case that gets put on hold for a while. The best case however…” you replied, watching Emma’s reaction before you continued.

She had sat up straight and her hands were holding your arm, her concentration firmly held on your words. You knew she was hoping you would get dirty with whatever you said next and you were happy to oblige.

“Then there's going to be a lot of late night phone calls between the two of us where I talk about all the things I want to do to her and how if I ever saw her again in person I’d make sure she doesn’t regret it. I’ll let you listen in as well. Getting to hear how horny she sounds and how desperately she wants me to…”

“I can’t hear your voices anymore so I assume you are… Oh you aren’t” Grace interrupted, walking back into the room and looking surprised that you were just whispering to Emma and not doing anything more.

She only had a towel wrapped around her which showed off her cleavage with how low she had closed but it had been too short of a time to have had a shower, her hair still dry and making you wonder why she had come back in.

“Mom! He was just getting to the best part!” Emma complained, her face still flushed but now she didn’t know where to put her energy.

“Hey, no need to stop on my account” Grace replied, putting up a hand to tell you to continue and in the process, loosening the towel just a bit more.

You knew she liked to show off and she definitely had your full attention but sadly she grabbed a few things from her bag and returned to the bathroom. She shut the door partially behind her and you were hoping for some sort of hint to see if she wanted you to follow her but you saw nothing before you heard the sound of the shower starting to run.

“Do you think we should…” Emma hinted, motioning to the door.

“As much as I want to, I think her having a shower and knowing that we ‘could’ be watching and her not knowing for certain, that would be more exciting for her…but I do really want to see her so let's wait a little bit” you replied, the plan to tease Grace falling through when you thought about it for a little longer.

“As long as you carry on telling me more about Izzy later, I can agree to that” Emma suggested, getting up once she had some sign of agreement out of you.

You would have been happy to tell her more now but she went to where her clothes were and started to pick out what outfit she planned to wear for the evening meal. With Grace taking a shower and Emma probably having one after her, it felt like you should put some effort into this, or at least more than you had been planning on doing before, and make sure you looked presentable.

The clothes Grace had put out for you were still in the bag but you got them and made sure they weren’t creased in the time since they had been bought. You still had to pick out the dress shoes you had luckily brought with you and while it didn’t feel like a lot of planning compared to your usual schemes, you arranged your evening outfit while Emma did the same.

Her search took a little longer but planning outfits side by side was something you didn’t expect to enjoy and the shared looks between the two of you put a smile on your face with a matching one coming from Emma as well.

In the weirdly mundane atmosphere that you were enjoying, you also ended up casually chatting about when you were actually planning on doing some school work, even if it was something you had been trying to avoid. Even if this break was to get away from life back home, your exams were fast approaching and you both agreed that it felt like a waste to have these intelligence upgrades and then not actually use them when it came to one of the best uses you could probably get out of them.

The meal and whatever happened after that was still your priority but you both tried to make a promise that you would actually do some studying tomorrow, even if it meant sacrificing some time you might have gotten to spend having fun alone.

You didn’t know if that promise was going to be fulfilled but putting it out in the open instead of it just being a thought you kept to yourself did make it seem more likely to come true.

During all of this, Grace finished her shower without either of you getting to peek at her, much to Emma’s disappointment. Grace still walked back out in just a towel which gave you plenty of eye candy which you got to enjoy for longer than Emma as she reluctantly went into the bathroom to have a shower herself.

Emma didn’t have the same idea as Grace as she fully shut the door behind her but that made it that much clearer that you and Grace were now alone in the room together, with her wearing a lot less than you were.
