We had gone out last night, to celebrate at a bar where the music is always to our taste and the entertainment is guaranteed, live band, live singers and impersonators of Elvis and Tom Jones, always a damn good night.
It was Master's birthday and the drinks were flowing like the Big Muddy. As usual, I couldn't sit still, dancing the night away while he split his attention between me, the band and the swiftly flowing JD's. Somehow, much the worse for wear we made it home, both unable to do anything more than just fall into bed.
The next morning, Saturday, I had planned to celebrate my Master's 50th birthday in style and in complete submission to his will. However, I awoke with the most vicious hangover, having already blown the opportunity to serve him breakfast in bed.
I quickly jumped up, but gently laid back down, groaning, the constant throbbing in my head sending darts of fire directly into my brain.
"Are you awake?" He asked me brightly.
Opening my eyes, I saw him looking around the door.
"Yes Darling, I am awake but my head is killing me," I croak back, my mouth drier than the desert sands and my voice little higher than a whisper. How does he do it? I wondered; drinking double shots of JD's for more than four hours and as bright as a button this morning.
Another moan escapes my lips but quietly as yet another evil arrow of pain stabs me without remorse and my Master returns with a glass of water and a couple of Paracetomol.
'How can this be happening?' I am thinking, 'My Beloved is taking care of me!'
An hour or so later I start to feel a little more settled and begin to explore the possibilities of standing up. Feeling that all will now be well, I make my way to the shower room with all the grandeur of an inebriated zombie, I am hoping that the stinging water will indeed bring me back to the real world.
Still alive and feeling more like the human being that my Master has come to know and love, I dried myself off and put on the black mini-skirt and black lacy shirt that he likes me to wear when pottering about the house with no other covering than this. There are restrictions on what I am allowed to wear when we are not expecting guests.
Now I felt fit enough to make his breakfast. I scrubbed the pans with enthusiasm before putting them on to heat, despite the now dull but constant throbbing in my head. I soon whipped up the batter for the pancakes, (mmmmm I just love pancakes, dripping with messy and sticky syrup); reminds of something else I love. I threw the bacon into one pan and a measure of the batter into the other before starting on the omelette. It just wasn't my day, the cakes stuck to the bottom of the pan and finished up being nothing more than misshapen lumps of batter. I burned most of the bacon and the omelette looked as though it had slept the night on skid row, a disaster.
Nonetheless, I set to, and laid a nice table with fresh juice, tea and coffee and put my offerings in front of him. My Darling Master, always the gentleman, ate with relish and even complimented me on the food. I replied saying that I had made a lousy job of it, promising him that the day could only get better.
With the table cleared away I asked permission to lay down for a while which he readily gave.
I awoke a couple of hours later to find my Beloved Master watching the National Geographic channel on TV, alone in the living room. I admonished myself for my lack of attention to him; figuring that so far his day had been made thoroughly miserable by me, the one person who should be making it great.
I set to and freshened up, cleaning my teeth and brushing out my hair; with my head still hurting I took a couple more Paracetomol and went to my knees in the doorway adopting a submissive pose. With my eyes cast down and filled with remorse, I called to him just loudly enough for him to hear. "Master." He turned toward me and seeing me in that position called me over to him, I crawled across to be at his feet and laying my head on his lap.
Tentatively I asked if I might get him a drink or something, he replied that a Pepsi would be nice and not to forget the ice. Okay, now I could start making it up to him, I would do a beautiful serve.
Fetching down the serving tray I put the ice in the glass before pouring the liquid over it and finished off with a twist of lime. I carried the tray expertly into the room with his eyes constantly watching me. I turned sideways to slip between the dining table and his chair, and disaster struck again. In slow motion, I see the glass tip sideways, oh! My god nooooo! I cried out mentally as it slid across to the lip of the tray momentarily seeming to hang in the air and then it just falls the rest of the way, dumping ice and Pepsi all over his chest and his lap. I am mortified and in my panic grab a towel to mash it between his legs trying to get the ice away from his sensitive bits.
He is very dismayed; I can see the frustration in his eyes as I mop up the mess.
"You don't seem to be able to get anything right today do you?"
I cringe inside, knowing that today of all days I have really let him down especially after all the boasts that I had been making about being the perfect submissive for him. Luckily for me my Master is slow to anger but I feel like locking myself in the bathroom as I dry him off and wipe down the cushion and the chair.
