So I figure the evening starts off pretty well. Anastasia seems pretty impressed by Charlie Tango. Awed was the term she used. Well I'm still kind of impressed with my helicopter myself. I love piloting her, but I rarely take other people up - Anastasia is the first girl I've ever flown in her. Another first, Miss Steele.
I find myself telling Ana about my hobby of soaring or gliding. I think to myself that she would really enjoy it, it would be pretty cool to take her up... What the fuck are you thinking Grey? You don't take a sub places like soaring, remember?
As we land on the roof of Escala, before we make our way inside, I feel compelled to reassure her that she still has choices.
"I'd never do anything I didn't want to, Christian," she calmly states. So I just have to hope that she wants to do what I want.
She seems overwhelmed by my apartment.
"It's a very big place you have here," she murmurs, as she sips the glass of Pouilly Fume I give her. One or two glasses of a decent wine will be fine to help her relax, unlike the quantity of cheap nasty alcohol she drank the other night to get into such an intoxicated state.
"Big?" My place just seems normal to me.
"Big," she confirms.
"It's big," I finally agree, deciding to take it as a compliment. I guess all my previous submissives took for granted the lifestyle of the affluent Dominants that recruited them. I've never really thought about it before. None of them ever expressed any kind of an opinion about my apartment that I can recall. They never really expressed any opinions at all, that wasn't their role.
We get signing the nondisclosure agreement out of the way. Ana signs it without even reading it, stating firmly that she wouldn't say anything to anyone in any case. I believe her, and it makes me feel kind of uncomfortable about insisting she sign, but I know it's a sensible precaution.
Then what she says next takes me by surprise.
"Does this mean you're going to make love to me tonight, Christian?"
This question shows how little she understands about me, so I know I mustn't delay any further. I must get to the heart of things, to see where we go from here. But first I correct her.
