He was anxious long before the moment he heard her car in the driveway. She was later than usual and he was sure her delay meant his night was not going to be easy. She was impatient after long days. He shifted nervously, at his desk, in anticipation of Her physical presence.
Quietly slipping off her shoes, She walked into the house, lightly grazed his bare shoulder with the pinky finger of her left hand, and gestured with her eyes to the bedroom. No words were needed.
He got up from his place in front of his computer and walked into the bedroom. She told him he was not to make a sound. He looked into her eyes, smiled, and unzipped his shorts. He was already without a shirt and beads of sweat from the warm, late summer afternoon, and anxiety, began to bead on his chiseled, sun-kissed chest. She wore a simple white sundress that accentuated her long neck and arms and showed off her tan.
As he removed his small amount of existing clothing, She opened the dresser and got out two pairs of handcuffs, a rope, duct tape, a mylar violet flogger, and a pair of dice (one white and one red). She whispered in his left ear that tonight would be difficult and that nobody, even Her, had control of the outcome. He was not to cry out and was to speak only with gratitude and only when specifically asked for comment. He smiled again.
She tossed the two sets of handcuffs on the bed and told him to cuff each wrist to each ankle, right to right and left to left. He first cuffed his left wrist and then reached down to cuff his left ankle to that wrist. It was tight and uncomfortable. He started to protest but one look at Her soft eyes and slightly parted, wet lips made him think it better to simply tolerate the discomfort. He didn't want Her to leave. He cuffed the right wrist to right ankle with more difficulty, but eventually finished the job and found himself in a strange squatting position on the floor at the edge of the bed. She gestured for him to hop up on the bed, which he did with some difficulty. Then, on his back, he looked helplessly up into her warm, but stoic eyes.
