Not so bright

You expected to wake up in an idyllic fashion in the early hours of the morning. Hoping to see the sun shining through your curtains and the sounds of birds tweeting to greet you for the wonderful day you had planned ahead. Instead, the sky was a dull colour of grey and as if to spite you, when you opened the curtains, the heavens opened up and it started to rain.

Most of your plans for the day weren’t reliant on the weather as they were predominantly inside, but the workout with Grace that you were about to go to was another thing entirely.

Just as you were about to grab your phone and message Grace, a ping rang out to tell you Grace had already beaten you to it.

Grace: Morning Max, sorry if this wakes you. Not sure if you have seen the weather but it looks like we won’t be able to do our workout session in the Garden like last time :(

Grace: We can still do it inside in my home gym though if you would like but if you are worried about Emma catching us then there’s no worries about rescheduling :)

You smirked to yourself when the issue was resolved just as soon as you spotted it, starting to type out a response to Grace as well as adding a little extra just to spice up your morning.

Max: Just woke up so you couldn’t have timed it any better :)

Max: Yeah I’m happy to do it inside considering the weather. Should I come round any time or are you still getting ready?

Activating ‘Let me take a selfie’

You waited for a response with bated breath, hoping your comment would spur her to send a more exciting photo in addition to the active effect. Her response took a little longer to come through but you were definitely happy with the result.

Grace: No come round any time :) I’m still getting dressed but it's not like you’ll see anything you haven’t seen before ;)

Grace replied, with you barely reading the message before you scrolled to view the full image.

The photo was taken from her bedroom, a room you had now been acquainted with, and she stood in a silk nightgown in front of a full-length mirror. The gown was fully open and the only item of clothing she wore underneath was a pair of panties, the robe open wide enough for her beautiful breasts to be on full display. She even held them up with her arm to purposefully show off for you and the knowing smile on her lips was enough to say she knew you would enjoy what she was sending.

Max: Wow you look stunning. What a great way to start the day :)

Max: I have a few things to sort out but I’ll be over as soon as I can.

Grace: No worries, I’ll unlock the front door so let yourself in and come find me :)

The invitation to ‘come find her’ was something you could hardly just ignore. You had unconsciously been pacing around your room ever since you started texting, unable to sit or stand in one place as the conversation went on. Now that you were given the go-ahead to make your way over, you quickly rushed to get everything sorted. First, quietly rushing to the bathroom to freshen up before returning to your room to find some appropriate clothes to attempt exercising in. You had left your phone in your room while you were preparing but a new message awaited up when you got back.

Grace: By the way, you might as well bring all your school stuff with you given the weather. I’ll be dropping Emma off at school and there's no point in you walking in this rain so we can give you a lift like usual :)

Max: Will do :)

Your efforts to pack what you needed quickly redoubled as you grabbed your school bag and an extra set of clothes, not wanting to spend the day in some gym clothes after doing whatever Grace had planned for you.

This did put a damper on some of your other plans as you had wanted to walk to school with Emma to discuss a few new developments with anyone potentially listening but you were sure you could find some time to fill in the details at some point.

After double-checking you had everything and that you looked as presentable as you could be in some sweatshorts and a tank top, you made your way out of your bedroom and down the hall, triple checking you had your phone just in case. The house was quiet and everyone’s doors were shut, leading you to believe that you were the only one awake at this hour.

You went to the kitchen and grabbed a few bits to eat unlike yesterday when you had rushed off to Emma’s and had spent too much time with both Mom and Sarah that you found yourself in such a rush. You were about to just grab some fruit and maybe some snacks from the fridge when you saw that Mom had left you some sandwiches already boxed up, your name written on the side along with another identical box for Sarah.

You assumed she had pre-made them last night before she had come upstairs and with no way to thank her now without potentially waking her up, you decided to write a note instead, also giving you a chance to explain where you had gone so early and that you would most likely not be back until after school.

You kept the note short and sweet before heading to the front door. You wanted to spend as little time in the rain so instead of sneaking out through the back door again, you went out the front door and out onto the porch. The entryway roof just barely covered you from the horrible weather as you locked the door behind you, showing no signs of stopping as you prepared yourself to start running.

The trainers you had decided to put on instead of your regular ones now looked to be one of your better ideas as you set off running past the front of the house and through the yard, opting to cut across the grass from both houses instead of taking the extra time to use the path. Your normal shoes were now safely tucked away inside your bag along with all your other clothes and books for the day and that decision seemed to pay off as even with the short distance, your shoes were completely soaked by the time you reached the safety of Emma’s house.

You tried your best to make sure you weren’t bringing in any excess water from outside, taking off your trainers while you were under the shelter of their entryway just in case before opening the door and heading inside.

Neither Grace nor Emma were to be found as you walked inside, making you wonder where Grace was and how flirty she had been being when she had told you to ‘come find her’

Author's note:
Hi all,
For the first time since the story started, I have received a request for a branching side story completely separate from Max. After reading over the chapters I've decided to approve them as they fit the theme of the KDK without interrupting anything with the Max storyline that I've been trying to keep to myself at the moment.

These chapters are written by OhTheLesbianity so if you want more of the KDK then I'd advise taking the time to have a read of these(first 2 chapters will be up shortly) :)

I'd also like to add that if you want to view anything KDK related then you can bookmark/favourite the story but if you end up preferring one branch over the other the following the author on chyoa is probably the best way to stay updated.

As always, Happy reading! :D
