He Saved Me

Chapter 13

Dominique's Pov

"One more store and then we'll call it quits," I said as I rearranged the bags hanging off my arms.

"Sir, that's a lot of clothes. I don't think I've ever had this many clothes before."

Ashton had been a bit shy the whole shopping trip. He wasn't very interested in choosing clothes for himself but nodded to everything I suggested. In the end I just choose which items we were getting and he tried them on. The only clothing item we were missing was underwear and swim trunks. I knew Ashton was naturally submissive but I also wanted to give him some choice today. Eventually I would need to go back to work and he would have to make choices on his own. 

"This is the last stop," I said as we stopped in front of the window. "Go ahead and pick out what you're comfortable wearing."

"Me? Sir I can't go in there by myself."

I knew why Ashton was shy as there was a variety of different types of underwear and swimming suit options. This place wasn't only for subs and doms but there was certainly no judgement on whatever someone bought. I had an idea that Ashton might be interested in panties but I wouldn't push him 

"Here, I need to make a phone call. Go pick out what you want and I'll be in to check on you. Go ahead baby  I know you can do it," I said gently urging him inside with my credit card.

I watched him slowly enter the store before I pulled out my phone.

"Hello?" Finn asked from the other end.

"If you and Jacob are available we should meet for dinner. I'm sure Ashton would like to visit with Jacob since he started to bring up dom and sub relationships."

"I forgot to tell Jake that Ashton was not yet your submissive. It's my fault and I take credit for it. Jake would be so happy if you brought Ashton over though, he hasn't stopped talking about him."

"How's six?" I asked.

Ashton had browsed the men's section and was now looking around in the women's. He started going through the panties and had selected a few. He kept looking back trying to see where I was but I didn't want to influence him.

"Six is good. Listen Dom, I'm sorry about how the past few days have been. I have to check out Ashton's arm, okay? After dinner that way he'll be more relaxed and can have Jake there with him."

"Jake?" 

"Well yeah, he's a sub so Ashton should feel better around him. You know he's trying to impress his big bad dom and not going to be truthful," Finn said.

"Finley I have to go, see you later." 

I hung up as Ashton made his way to the sales desk. 

"Did you find everything you were looking for today?" The lady asked.

"Um yes Ma'am I think so," Ashton mumbled.

"Great, well anytime you need more panties you know where to come. We also have thongs if you're interested."

"Um, yes please." 

I was waiting at the door when Ashton finally found me. His cheeks instantly turned red and he averted his gaze.

"This is the same size as the panties, would you like it?"

Ashton looked to me for guidance but I just gave him a smile.

"Um sure."

"Great!" The sales lady said as she scanned the thong.

Ashton handed over my credit card and then took the receipt and bag from the lady. He rushed to my side as he shoved everything at me.

"I'm sorry Sir," Ashton mumbled.

I guided us to a bench where I could put down the bags. Ashton had started crying and was roughly wiping his eyes.

"No need to be sorry, you didn't do anything wrong. What happened?" I asked confused on what happened in the short time I let Ashton alone.

"I bought slut clothing with your money. I'm so sorry Sir, I just I thought they were pretty. I shouldn't have spent your money on my slut clothes."

"Ashton you don't have to apologize for anything. I told you to go pick out what you wanted and that's what you did. Plus I think you'd look pretty good in panties and thongs." I said bumping my knees with Ashton's.

He looked up at me and I sent him a wink which caused the blush to form on his cheeks again. 

"Don't cry baby, you did great in there. Plus I have another surprise for you, we are gonna eat dinner with Finn and Jacob."

"I don't get punished?" Ashton asked looking up at me.

"Punished? Why in the world would you ever get punished?"

"I was bad Sir, I bought slutty clothes."

"I don't think you were bad at all. It's just underwear and you can wear whatever kind you want. I would never punish you for something like that. Plus I'm not really even your dom."

"You don't want to be my dom anymore?" Ashton asked.

I could hear the quiver in his voice as he spoke.

"Come on, let's get to the car. We can talk there but I do want to be your dom."

I grabbed the bags and led Ashton back to the car. He climbed into the passenger seat as I started the car. 

"We're going over to see Finn and Jacob cause I want them to get to know you. You're the first person that has ever made me feel these feelings for. I want to protect you but I also want to hold you close. Normally I want control over my sub but I want more than that from you. I know this is a lot to take in because we still don't know each other much. I realize you have your own past and things to deal with but I want to be there. Do I want a dom and sub relationship with you? Yes of course but I don't want to rush into anything before you're ready."

I didn't want to overwhelm Ashton as I knew he was not completely comfortable around me. I didn't want to force him into a dom and sub relationship that he might not even be ready for.

"But you still like me?" Ashton asked.

I couldn't help but laugh at how innocent Ashton was. Just another reason why I didn't want to rush into such a complicated realtionship.
