Ask Me to Stay

Chapter Two

DOMINIC'S POV
---
I think I went overboard...All of Vera's favorite snacks sat out along the coffee table. Clearly, I'm trying to make up for both last night and this morning. That girl just gets under my skin sometimes...most of the time. And then last night when her tit was right below my face, round and supple, as if it was asking to be sucked. Not another cold shower, Dom...
Vera plopped down on the L part of the sofa...the part of the sofa where I woke up to her straddling my lap while digging into my pants. Fuck, I shouldn't have taken her phone.
"Creative or survival?" I asked after clearing my throat.
"Creative, I want to build." She answered simply, her golden honey eyes meeting mine for a fleeting moment.
I plopped down beside her, sitting crisscross in my sweatpants. I looked over at her in the same set of sweats she was wearing this morning.
"Vera...if your hot you should change, you don't have to layer up because of last night." I explained softly, not meeting her eyes as I set up the Minecraft world.
"That's not-" she sighed and nodded, giving up on her excuse. From the corner of my eye, I see her lift her arms and pull the hoodie off, leaving her in a simple cropped white t-shirt. Eyes to your fucking self, Dominic Monroe, she's sixteen!
The night continued in mostly silence, save the Minecraft talk. We decided to build a castle in the mountains, using my laptop to pull up a reference.
Ding
A text notification rang out of my phone and my linked laptop. My breath hitched in my throat, but I calmly leaned forward and silenced my laptop, doing the same to my phone.
It wasn't cheating, just conversation. Kara actually cheated in the beginning of our relationship and I still stuck around, mostly because I pitied Vera. I love Kara, I love them both, but recently I've been missing something. Missing that wow factor in Kara and this relationship. So...I've been talking to this girl, a simple dom sub online relationship. She almost blew it this morning when she called during breakfast. I almost ended it right there in the bathroom, but she started talking, describing, and ten minutes later I was tossing a sticky paper towel into the trash bin of an IHOP bathroom.
"Can you please tell me what was so important this morning?" Vera asked sweetly, clearly catching the notification. I sighed, playing it calmly but secretly freaking out.
"Just an old friend Vera, she needed some...direction and I apparently needed to be the one to give it," I explained vaguely.
"You realize how sketchy you sound, right?" She giggled, making me smile and look over at her. Her round lips curved up and the dimples on her cheeks were more defined.
"Yeah...it's not though...promise, now please, back to the issue at hand." I pushed, popping a skittle into my mouth. "Your side is one block off...you gotta restart."

The last time I checked my phone it was almost six. I thought about asking Vera if she wanted to order in for dinner but for the last half-hour, she has had a jumbo bag of Trolli gummy worms in her lap.
"Hand 'em here, papa wants some." I laugh, referring to her past father  joke.
I know Vera has never seen me as a father figure, it's only been three years. But she does like to throw it in my face when I've upset her. Which I don't purposely try to do. I know Kara has had boyfriends before, we were friends before we were more, that Vera got attached to. She was four when her mom left and Kara got custody, so it was expected of her to make attachments like that. But she was thirteen when we formally met as her sister's boyfriend, by then she decided men were overrated and all she needed was her sister.
"Sorry Daddy, but these are mine." She squealed when I reached over for the bag, coiling herself around the bag out of my reach.
Daddy...I froze, breath held and my hand hanging in the air. That word coming from her mouth should not have the effect on me that it did. Say it again! My mind screamed, my heart pumping steaming blood to my lower half.
"Sorry...Uhm...that was weird...that probably made you uncomfortable...I shouldn't have said something like that to you considering... never mind." She rambled out, trying to change the subject by going back to the building.
"What do you mean 'considering'?" I ask curiously. Clearly, I missed something, people make "daddy" jokes all the time. Yeah Dom, but your the one with the daddy kink...my mind reminds me.
"Nothing." She answered flatly, not turning towards me like she's been the last few hours.
"Vera...why would you think a joke would make me uncomfortable?" I asked again, pausing my half of the screen, telling her that I was serious.
"We don't have to talk about it, Dominic, it would end badly anyway." She mumbled, eating another worm nervously.
"Either you answer me or I take your phone," I state simply, pettiness saturating my tone.
"You can't do that," Vera shouted, grabbing her phone from the arm of the sofa.
"I'm the adult here...now tell me." I snap, immediately trying to soften my tone.
"Fine..." she breathed out. "But you're the one who asked for it." I nod, not completely sure where it was leading. "Remember when I was seeing that one therapist virtually?" She asked and I nodded in return. "Well...my laptop was dead, I couldn't find the charger...so while you were in the shower I got yours..." she paused, waiting for me to put the pieces together, bit confusion was cemented onto my face. "Jesus...okay well...Uhm...when I opened it up, your tab was still open...I'm guessing you had just..." my mouth dropped when Vera made a jacking-off motion from the other side of the couch. "You know what I mean right?" She asked after a few moments.
"Yup...all clear..." I bit my lip and then cleared my throat, completely in shock.
My girlfriend's little sister saw the porn that I jacked off to. That's a new kind of low.
"But what does that have to do with da-" I start still not sure but very embarrassed.
"You didn't pause it when you closed your laptop so when I opened it I heard what she was saying...and what he was saying...and then there was also the title...and the tags the video was under." She blurted out quickly, cutting me off.
"Oh...fuck." I stated.
"Yup...daddy kink..." Vera added in nervousness.
"Stop saying it." I breathed out. That word coming from her did awful things to me. It made my body react in a way that even porn didn't.
"Here..." she tossed the bag of worms to me, probably out of pity. A hand full of worms fell from the bag, landing in my lap and falling beneath the blanket that was covering me. "Crap!" She hissed before leaning over and pulling at the blanket to help me get them. Instead, she just revealed what I was trying my hardest to hide. "Oh!...Crap." She whispered, staring at the noticeable tent in my sweatpants.
"Vera!" I snapped, pulling away and covering my lap again. Shit...how am I gonna get out of this!
"Is that...is that from me?" Vera asked, leaning back and instinctively reaching for the hoodie she tossed beside her hours earlier.
"No." I snapped, shaking my head.
"So I'm just supposed to believe that it was the stone blocks that got you hard?!" She cried out, tossing her controller between us. "You do realize I know how boners work?!"
"Clearly you'd don't! Because if you did you would know that sometimes this happens without cause!" I lied hoping it would save me. She opened her mouth to reply but then closed it, contemplating the truth behind what I said.
"It...it does?" She mumbled.
"Okay, officially ending this conversation. I'm going to go pick up dinner and hope that when I come home your not traumatized." I nod to myself before getting up and heading to the door.
"Dominic!" Vera yelled from the sofa.
"It will be something you like," I yelled before slipping on a pair of slides and grabbing my keys and exiting the house, hoping that conversation died with my presence in the house.

VERA'S POV
---
After Dominic left I tried to continue playing, but the experience we just shared demanded my attention. I sighed and pulled out my phone.
Can someone get a non-sexual boner?
I typed into google. I scrolled through the answers only seeing things about wet dreams, morning wood, and "ten things your man will lie to you about".
He lied? So it was me then...I made him hard? For fucks sake Vera he's thirty-four, definitely wasn't you that got him hard!
I paced around the living room deciding on what to do. I can't live in the same house with him until I figure out what the hell just happened!
But I'm not going to tell Kara...she doesn't need this stress. I can handle this on my own...yeah for sure.
My efforts to convince myself only gave me enough confidence to last the hour Dominic was gone because when I saw his headlights in the window it all disappeared.
---
"You lied!" I blurted out when the door was open wide enough for him to hear me. "I looked it up!" I added, trying to give myself extra confidence.
I could hear a groan from the opposite side, as soon as Dominic came inside he thrust the box of food towards me, shedding his slides and tossing his keys into the bowl by the door.
"Drop it, Vera." He said calmly, taking back the food and walking into the kitchen.
"No!" I yelled, flailing my arms. "Because everything I read is telling me that I did something to cause...that!"
"You act like it's your fault, Vera." He scoffed, opening the fridge and pulling out a beer.
"It is..." I breathed out. "Isn't it?" I asked, confused about how me doing something that caused Dominic to be turned on isn't my fault.
"Vera!" He snapped, turning towards me. "I am the one who is in the wrong. Not you, okay? In a situation like this, it would never, and I mean never, be your fault. I honestly don't understand how you're not completely disgusted with me right now." His tone was softer, gentle, and apologetic. "I'm gonna stay up until your sister comes home, I'll tell her what happened and make sure she knows it was my fault. You don't have to worry about anything, Vera."
"Your telling Kara?" I asked, astonished that he would put their relationship on the line over something we could keep to ourselves.
"Yes...of course. I would do the same thing if it was the other way around, so why wouldn't I do it now?" He opened the beer and took a sip before retrieving two plates for us. "And you can eat in your room tonight, I doubt you want to sit at the table with me."
"What do you mean if it was the other way around?" It's not like he would be able to visibly see that I'm turned on as I could with him.
"Like if I found out you fantasied about me or just saw our relationship in a sexual light." Has he fantasized about me? I don't think I would mind...an "oh shit" look formed on my face and I looked down at my feet. "What Vera?"
"Well..." I took a deep breath. "To make things fair, there was this one time, I didn't like watching porn, and I sure as hell wasn't going to do the do while thinking about Justin Bieber," I admitted, my face turning red. I flicked my eyes up at him and for a moment there was the start of a smirk.
"You...you touched yourself to me?" He whispered as if someone was in the other room.
"Yeah...yeah, I did." I laughed awkwardly.
"Am I supposed to tell your sister that?" He asked after a moment.
"I mean...I wouldn't mind if you didn't tell her at all, like any of this." I replied, meeting his blue eyes with my brown ones.
"Even my...issue?" He added, leaning into the counter towards me. A small smile formed on my lips as I nodded. Jesus Vera! What the hell is happening to you?!
"I do have a question though..." I looked away for a moment before looking back. He nodded, his face looking shaded and dangerous. "What was it? What made that happen?"
"Of course, there was last night...but when you said daddy...and kept saying it. My mind went somewhere else." He breathed out slowly, his eyes focused on me. "Your turn..."
"What? Like what did it for me?" I asked, he returned with a nod. "Well Uhm...your body, of course, your voice, things I would have wanted you to say to me." Our eyes were locked and both of us were breathing unnaturally heavy.
"Like what?" He sighed, his eyes darkening into something I've never seen before, his teeth pulling at his bottom lip.
"Degrading stuff, dirty things...and the opposite of your word..." my tone was light and airy, barely above a whisper.
"Baby girl?" He asked, I just nodded, letting the word consume us.
"Slut, too, and whore. But always with mine in front." I added.
"My whore?" I bit my lip at his words. My body felt like it was on fire. A pressure inside me begged for release but tensed my body, holding back.
"Guys! I'm home! Kate said she needed more hours so she's covering for me tonight." Kara's voice rang out from the front door, pulling us both from the trance of sexual tension. Fuck Vera...
