a hidden lifestyle

chapter 7

Adrianne's pov
I opened my eyes and noticed i was curled up against norman's chest. I was suprised that i fell asleep before him. I had a morning ritual so him being there was no different. I got up and ate something small. I put on my running clothes and went for a jog.

I had a call from matt when i was almost back home.
'Hi sweetheart how was the date?' I smiled when he asked that. 'It was fine matt thanks for asking.' We talked every single day. Even if we werent together, we needed to hear eachother. 'Did you tell em everything?' I sighed. Thinking about today. 'No not everything.' I could picture his look on the other side of the phone. 'Babygirl you know what today is right? He stayed with you last night and its you're free day off from work. How are you gonna explain it?' I shook my head and sighed. 'I dont know. I actually forgot bout it. I guess i have to tell em and maybe he wants to come with me.' He chuckled. 'Sweetie do you still want me to come then or do you want to be alone with norman?' I wanted him to come too. 'No you always come with me. Today isnt gonna change that. I'll pick you up later handsome.' 'Okay sweetie see you later.' I hung up and i was already back in my house. I took a shower and made some dinner.

Norman's pov
I woke up without my girl laying next to me. Something smelled good. I got up and followed the scent to the kitchen. She was cooking something awesome. I went behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. "Goodmorning handsome." She said. "Goodmorning darling. What smells so good?" She smiled. "Made you breakfast. I need my man to eat so he doesnt faint. I want my sub to respect his body as much as i do." I mumbled. "Hmmmm i could get use to this though." She chuckled. "Sit down baby and eat." I smiled. "Yes ma'am." I finished my plate. "Sweetie i need to run something by you." She said and i could tell she was nervous and that suprised me because she didnt seem like the girl to get nervous. "What's wrong darling?" She sighed. "I'm going somewhere with matt today. I go there every week but today is a special day for me and matt always comes with me. If you become important to me you need to know this." She held her breathe and she was really having a hard time talking now. "Babygirl are ya okay? Ya look pale." What the hell was going on. "I just dont talk about this and not many people know about it. I'm going to the cemetary to visit my son. It suppose to be his bday today." My eyes widened. "You had a son? What happened?" she had tears in here eyes now. "i dated this guy a few years ago and we were great together. He loved what i loved and i was stupid enough to fall for him and got pregnant. He left me because he didnt want a pregnant dom. Can you believe that he only cared about himself. He broke my heart norman. I met matt soon after and he was there for me and so was his husband. When i was 7 months, the doctor told me that my son was dead. He said that i had to deliver him. You know what that feels like giving birth to something that would have been your world. I decided afterwards that i wouldnt let anyone into my heart like that. I love my subs but that kinda love i will never have again." I sighed and hugged her. "I'm sorry darling. I got a kid and if something would happen to em, i wouldnt know what to do. I would like to come if you have me. Sometimes the dom needs support too." Her lip trembled and burried herself into my chest and i knew she hated losing control but today was different. I let her cry out for a while. "Thanks for this sweetie." I frowned. "For what?" She smiled. "For picking me up while i was falling." I scoffed. "Dom or no dom, sub or no sub. You're still my girl or better said i'm your man and its respect and love." She placed her hand on my cheek. "So handsome and yes you're my man. Lets go i need to pick up matt. Dont go weird jealous on me when you see him. He means a lot to me." I nodded. "I understand. He was there for ya through a difficult time. He stood by ya when he could have left but he didnt. I hope he doesnt get jealous of me." she chuckled. "He asked if he could come because i was gonna ask you. You're gonna get along just fine."

We left with the car and picked matt up. I was feeling nervous because it was weird being in the same space with a dude screwing with the same girl. She took some flowers and sat down in front of the grave. Him and me gave her some room. "Hey norman thanks for coming with us. I know it must be weird considering our situation and all." I looked at him and he had tears in his eyes. I knew how much she ment to him. "You guys have a strong connection. I can tell so why come between that." He smiled. "Thanks man but i have the feeling our bond will change soon." I fowned. "How's that?" He chuckled. "I know her for years now norman. She has never took any of her subs here. Even the ones she had been with for a while. We share that bond because i was there when she was expecting. You are special and she knows it but she's not gonna want to admit it to anyone. Just be carefull what you do." I was so confused about this. "I'm not special. I'm just norman. What do you mean by what i do?" He frowned. "Dont let her fall in love with you unless you are prepared to do the same." I was taken back by his words. "I know she told you about her broken heart. She cant handle it the second time. I know you're her weakness by the way she acts around you." I eyed him. "I'm not gonna hurt her. I like her a lot. She has this certain attraction that makes me curious. I dont know if i can tell you but she cried this morning." His eyes widened. "In front of you? Thats new. She had never done that before. She only got emotional when she was with me. When she feels frustrated she calls me." I thought about it and i knew she was with him when she blew me off. I just shook away the thought of them together. He was her rock and he has been for many years. This was just her way to handle it. She came to us and whiped away her tears. "Hey guys i'm ready thanks for coming with me." Matt smiled. "Always love." He kissed her cheek.
