xxxxx The first hour was okay, she guessed. The bed was super comfortable, after all. An unnecessarily high pile of pillows sat by the headboard, and the comforter was soft and lay on top of her like a warm cocoon. When she heard her friends start up a Mario Kart tournament though, she started getting jealous.

The door was cracked open just slightly and through it she could glimpse several half-drunk beers on the kitchen counter. Suddenly, all Kamryn could think about was a beer and some social interaction. She knew the instant she was seen by anyone out there she would be reprimanded and sent back in. The bedroom was back a bit and off to the side of the living room area, so if she walked quietly enough, no-one would notice.

Kamryn faltered, not sure where the conversation was going. “Uh, dominant?” Emily lowered her arm to eye level and reached out to point at Kam’s neck, where her necklace officially marking their relationship sat. “And what does that necklace around your neck mean?”
