Checkmate

An Exciting Evening

"Is it alright if I meet you at 6:30 so I have time to run home and get changed?" I send this message to Tommy, I feel bad about meeting him so late.

"Yeah course it is 😁" he sends back. Then a minute later another message comes through. "Lola's is open until 9:00. I love it! I can't believe you haven't been before!" Lola's is a coffee shop that is open from 11 until 9. I've only heard of it before, most coffee shops close at like 6 so it's nice to be able to meet up somewhere that's not like a pub or a bar.

"I know Sim's told me about it but it's not somewhere I've been before."

"You're in for a treat! Anyway, I'll let you get back to work, I'll see you soon."

"See you soon!" I'm really looking forward to going out with Tommy. It's been ages since I've been out with someone that's not Beth or Sim. I smiled a little placing my phone down. Today has been pretty hectic.

At five I leave work and make my way back home. Traffic wasn't great but I don't work too far from home so it was okay. I rush in saying a quick hello to Sim before quickly getting changed and sorting my hair out. I step out of my room and go to the living room. Sim was sitting on the floor crossed legged leaning back against the sofa. He looked up at me. "Oh, quick before you go. I'm going to add you to the Sub group chat. We don't normally add people until they are officially trained but I argued that you're not going anywhere and they agreed." I looked down at him curiously.

"I didn't know you had a submissive group chat" I don't think he's ever mentioned it before.

"It's for super-secret submissive purposes" he teased. I laughed rolling my eyes. "We all go out like once a month for something to eat or like we just go somewhere or do something just us subs that's not like drinking and it's coming up and you won't be trained by then but we all want you to come."

"Really?" I asked.

"Oh yeah! We were talking about it before like numbers and that. Then Ro was like 'what about Elliot, will he be trained in time?' I told him no but you are not backing out anytime soon because, like, I will literally drag you, kicking and screaming, to the club. So we all agreed that you should come." I looked at him wide-eyed. They actually wanted me. That's really cool. "Let me add you now."

"Wait before you do like who's in it. Not that I don't like anyone or anything it's just that well I just want to make sure that I know so I don't erm..." I blurted out. He smiled and passed me his phone.

"That's everyone. The dominants also have a group chat like this, I think. Noah's in that one. In case you're wondering why he's not in this." I nodded scrolling through the names. I think I've met nearly all of them and at least heard of the rest of them. Okay. This will be fun. I wonder if it's like an active group chat or if it's just like one they have. I hope they all like me. I pass him his phone back.

"I'm going to add you now. You'll probably end up getting friend requests from everyone" he told me. I nodded.

"I've got to go. I'll see you in a bit. Do you want me to bring you anything back?"

"See you in a bit and nah it's alright. Thanks" he smiled. I smiled back at him and grabbed my keys. Lola's was around the corner from Checkmate. We lived right in the centre of town so travelling wasn't much of an issue.

As I pull up to the coffee shop I check my phone already a bunch of notifications have flooded through. I quickly scan them so people don't think I'm being rude. Most of the boys had nicknames so it was kind of difficult to tell who was who. The messages were all really sweet though like just welcome messages and stuff. "Thank you guys! I feel so honoured 😋". Was that emoji a bit too much? Shit... erm. I've already sent it now. I sighed undoing my seatbelt.
