Three's Company

20. The Playground

Paisley's POV

  I don't know why I was so embarrased talking with my mommies earlier. No one has ever pointedly asked me stuff about sex before and I can't help that it makes me a little shy. Mommy and Mama are so open about it and the way they talk about it is so casual. Even though it embarrasses me, I appreciate that they're willing to talk like that. It makes me feel safer in my want to explore more with them.

  I was a little sad Mama said we had to wait till later, cuz once we were on the topic, it's all I could think about. Throughout breakfast, I would catch Mama or Mommy's eye and I know they knew what I was thinking about. All I could do was look away quickly and blush, trying to ignore the way they would smirk at me or each other. I do my best to push the thoughts aside for now. I'm sure I'll have plenty of time later for that kind of thinking.

  Today, I've decided I want to be a good girl. I thought being naughty would be fun and it is in some ways, but deep down I'm a good girl and I don't like being in trouble. I can handle being punished, but I really didn't like the looks of disappointment I got yesterday for how I was acting. So being the good girl that I am, I helped Mommy with the dishes and she said we could go to the park today!

  I'm bouncing with excitement as we all leave the house together. There's a really cool playground walking distance from home. We always pass it in the car, but we've never stopped to play.

  Mommy and Mama chat as we walk, but I'm not really listening. I'm planning out in my head all the stuff I want to do at the park. The swings have always been my favorite, I think I'll start there. I wonder if Mommy will swing with me. I bet she would if I ask really nicely.

  "Mommy?" I say, interrupting whatever she was saying to Mama.

  "Hm, yeah Pumpkin?"

  "Will you go on da swings wif me pretty pease?" I ask. We're close enough now, that the playground is in sight. There's a few kids playing on the jungle gym and some adults sitting nearby at picnic tables.

  "Yeah sure Pumpkin." Mommy smiles, then goes back to talking to Mama. I catch something about a birthday and that gets my attention.

  "Who's birthday?!" I shout louder than I meant to.

  "Mine baby." Mommy laughs. Suddenly I realize that I don't even know when my mommies birthdays are. I'm sure they know mine, it's the end of the summer.

  "When is it?!" I say, suddenly very excited. I love birthdays!

  "Next week, on Friday." Mommy says. Oh man, how did I not know this?!

  "When's yours Mama?" I ask, the urge to learn more about my mommies is very strong.

  "January 10th." Mama says looking amused. Her birthday passed before we even met, but I still commit it to memory.

  "Did you still want to go on the swings?" Mommy asks, coming to a stop as we've reached the playground now. I want to know more about their conversation and more in general about them. I feel like they know everything about me and I suddenly feel selfish realizing how one sided our getting to know each other phase was. Buuut I also really want to go on the swings.

  "Uh huh. Mommy swing an Mama push?" I ask looking at the two empty swings.

  "Sounds good Pumpkin." Mommy smiles. Mama looks at a nearby bench and back at the swings and sighs. I bet she thought she could get away with just watching. Nope!

  "Yay! Come on!" I giggle, grabbing each of their hands and dragging them to the swings with me. They laugh but let me pull them along. I love my mommies. I take the swing on the right and Mommy sits to my left. Mama helps me get started on the swing, then I take over cuz she wasn't pushing me high enough. "What we doin for Mommy's birthday?" I ask between my giggles, swings are so fun!
 
  "That's what we were trying to figure out." Mama replies.
