Spring 2012
Alright! I've just had an amazing couple of days. I'll record as much as I can remember, though it's already blurring at the edges due to the almost dreamlike altered state of mind I went into.
Obviously, I went back to Montreal again for another escapade. This time, I went with the intention of doing some sort of kinky scene, and I ended up going back to That Shop twice.
The first time I went, I didn't plan ahead and didn't put any pressure on myself. Amie and I went shopping, walked around, and had lunch. I wore a short black and white dress with my little black lace bolero from Japan and Brazilian-cut panties, but no corset, no stockings. I brought my cuffs along, and that was all. It was 4:00 by the time we got there, which was later than I'd intended. My sister was also coming to stay with us for a few days on the way to a summer camp, and we had to pick her up at the train station around 6:00 or 6:30. But I was feeling surprisingly unhurried and gentle, open to whatever experience came along. In retrospect, it was a good state of mind to be in.
The corset-maker was working when we came in, but I didn't go up to him first thing. Amie and I looked around the more vanilla part of the shop first, making comments about the corsets and bras. Only when I got near the aisle leading to the back of the shop did he ask me if I was looking for anything. I said something like,
"I don't know if you remember me, but you fitted me for a corset and sold me a pair of wrist cuffs. Now I'd like to get the matching ankle cuffs. Could you help me?"
He asked me if I had the cuffs with me, and I said I did. As I passed them to him, our hands touched. His hand was warm, almost hot, against mine. He said he could help me and added, "And then I'll put a hood on you and spank you."
Clearly, he remembered me.
"Ooh, is that part of the service?" I asked suggestively, smiling.
"Yes, it is," he replied after a thoughtful pause. "Would you like to come to the back with me and try some things on?"
I looked to Amie. She nodded, understanding my unspoken intentions instantly. She said she'd get a coffee at a nearby cafΓ© that we both liked, and that she'd keep her phone on in case I needed her. Oh, my faithful wing-woman! There's no way I would've felt as safe as I did if she wasn't literally two minutes away, ready to back me up. She was so patient with my stumbling explorations all along. Really, she made it all possible.
Once she left, I turned myself over to the corset-maker. He led me into the enclosed back room, where the hoods, harnesses, and other fetish gear are kept. It took him a while to find the ankle cuffs that matched my wrist cuffs. While he rummaged through a big bin full of different kinds, I made small talk about the shop, asking if it was busy, and whether he made everything himself. I was definitely projecting my energy, shining the silent signal 'I want to play with you.' He picked up on it. How could he not?
Finally, he found me two pairs of ankle cuffs: one with Velcro closures to match my armbands, and the other with buckles, flat silver rivets, and two d-rings on each cuff, an inside and an outside. But before he let me try any one, he put the wrist cuffs I'd bought my first time in the shop back on me. As he did so he remarked on my natural long nails, saying with approval,
"All natural. Nothing fake here."
Then he crouched and had me put my foot on his knee to put the ankle cuff on me. It was slightly unstable, so for the second foot he sat on a low stool he brought out, making his leg and his grip stronger. I knew that he could see my panties with my legs raised in that short skirt, which gave me a little thrill. He brought me out into the back aisle of the shop to show me the cuffs in the mirror there. As a demonstration of what could be done with them, he hooked my wrists to my ankles so that I was bent over at the waist. He had to work at the right-hand hook a bit, and in doing so he pressed his body more firmly against mine and cupped my outthrust ass in his crotch. I thought I could feel him already getting hard against me.
"And then we give you one of these," he said, and lightly slapped my ass. I laughed and said "Oh yes" or some such. I let him know I liked it.
He took me back to the enclosed room and asked me if I'd like to try a hood and collar, or rather, which one I wanted to try first. I said, "Whatever you wish," so he opted to show me the collar first, to let me see what it looked like. He selected one that matched my ankle cuffs and put it on me.
