Push The Button (9 page)

“Came in and found her asleep on the couch, fully clothed, knowing damned well no clothes were allowed in the house. I mean, what the fuck man, right? So I yanked her up out of her sleep and shook her until she awakened. A few slaps, you know, nothing serious. She woke up and I told her to strip. Since she didn’t want to cook my rice, I decided to teach her how it could be used when not on my dinner table. You know how that goes, right 
Sir
? I poured the rice out on the floor and made the bitch kneel on that rice, right then and there. Made her stay her ass there for an hour while I cooked my own goddamned dinner. Man I was so pissed at her! What man works all day and has to come home and cook his own fucking dinner, right?” Marcus took another drag from his cigarette, shaking his head.

“Man to man, Sir to Sir, be real with me… You ever have those problems with her?” he asked David.

“What was THAT??!?!” Janice yelled as she heard a crash come from the front porch. She and Nicole were running to the front door to see what caused the commotion. Nicole made it first and saw Marcus on his back, David on top of him punching him repeatedly.

“Baby… No!!!” she screamed and ran to try and pull Him off of Marcus.

“Oh my God, David what are you DOING?!” Janice yelled. “You’re gonna kill that boy!!”

“My boy ain’t no punk!” Joseph said from right behind her. He leaned over to see what was going on. “It was bound to happen. Sometimes you gotta let them boys fight it out!”

“Joe help them!!” she implored.

“A man’s gotta fight, Janice!!” he repeated and backed up a few steps, pulling her with him.

“Baby, please, pleeeease you’re gonna kill him, baby stop!!” Nicole begged pulling at David’s arm. In the split second she distracted Him, Marcus was able to get a solid punch to David’s gut, knocking the wind out of Him. David toppled backwards and He fell into Nicole’s legs and she lost her footing. Before she could grab onto anything or anyone, she fell backwards off of the porch screaming, a full flight of steps above the concrete ground. Her body hit the ground with a thud and her head bounced on the concrete at last three times.

“Star!!!” David screamed, shoving Marcus off of Him as He ran down the stairs. “Call an ambulance!!!!” He screamed as He began to see blood trickle onto the ground. “Nicole, baby…baby wake up, baby please!” He begged. She didn’t respond, though she was still breathing. “Call a fucking ambulance!!” He screamed as the tears sprang to His eyes. “Baby please, I’m so sorry, please baby, pleeease don’t leave me,” He plead as He gathered her body into His arms. He began rocking her back and forth.

Marcus came running down the stairs. “The ambulance is on its way,” he assured. “Shit, man, is she OK?” he asked trying to get a better look at her.

“Stay back, motherfucker!! You stay the fuck away from us. This is YOUR fault!! I swear to God if anything happens to her…” He stopped short when He heard the ambulance sirens in the distance. He turned His attention back to Nicole.

“Baby, they’re coming. Star, stay with me, they’re coming,” He said rocking her. “I’m gonna take care of you, baby, I promise. I promise…” He whispered into her hair, blood trickling onto His shirt sleeve. He could hear Janice’s screams and DJ’s cries in the background but began to tune them out. All He needed to hear was her heartbeat, and He felt it. He leaned His ear down to her chest and listened to her heart still beating rapidly.

I hear you.

Good afternoon, lady. Allow me the pleasure of making your acquaintance. I read a few of your posts in the KOC group and wanted to reach out and let you know that I love your mind, or at least what thoughts I've read so far. I read your profile and am definitely intrigued by the way you articulate your thoughts and present yourself. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy your photos too, lol. You're quite lovely.

I noticed your profile says you're dating, but uncollared. I hope I'm not stepping on any toes or disrespecting anyone with this message. I have no problem respecting boundaries. If you're available, however, I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and maybe make a new friend.

Best,

GS77

Hello!

I'm sorry for the delay in response. I haven't been online in about a week. I usually take some personal time around 9/11 (lost my dad in the Towers) and head to New York City with my mother and sister. I appreciate your message and your approach was welcomed. You'd be surprised how many lame introductions I get. "What up, boo?" doesn't quite work for me, yanno? Lol.

You're correct, I'm currently uncollared. I'm also single, but I do date when I have time and when someone sparks my interest, which I find is becoming less frequent these days. You're not stepping on any toes at all, and I thank you for that consideration.

So what do you want to know, Mr. Slayer?

Good morning Nick!

I hope this message finds you well. I'm glad you got back to me. I admit I was getting a bit worried. My condolences to you and your family. I lost a couple of colleagues on 9/11 myself. It was just terrible. Can you believe it has been 9 yrs already? Time flies, but that doesn't mean it gets any easier.

I'm a bit of a traveler myself, so I understand time limitation. I get it, definitely. In fact, I'm at the airport now on my way home from a business trip.

What do I want to know? Is "everything" too much? Lol. Maybe we can start with why you're on a site for kinksters and whether or not you're seeking to build with someone? I see you identify as a "sub", but not a "slave". Maybe you can elaborate on that?

Full disclosure: I'm rather new to The Life. I've experimented with some edgier things intimately, but haven't felt fulfilled in my past relationships and interactions beyond that. I want to explore the side of me that I feel remains dormant. Not sure how I can best go about that, but I'm hoping to connect with folks here who can maybe offer some guidance.

Hope to hear from you soon,

David

Ahhh David. I get it! Goliath Slayer. Cute! My name is Nicole, and I go by Nickita here. They once knew me in The Life as "Luna", but that's another story, maybe I'll tell you one day. I'm on the site because I enjoy the community aspect of it. It's difficult to find kinksters offline because people aren't always "out" with their kink, if you know what I mean. The site gives me the chance to learn more about what it is that we do, meet other people in The Life, connect with people with more experience, help those with less, etc. I really enjoy the conversations we have on various kink-related topics, especially those related to POC. You know that, though, because that's how you found me ^_^

Hmmm. Yes I definitely identify as a sub, but not slave. Not because I've not considered it or have any particular aversion to the label, as some of "us" do. Just that I only reached that level of service once and it wasn't...good. Let's just say that... It would take a whole lot for me to get close to that place again. At least that's what I tell myself, for now.

I don't call myself submissive because I don't have a submissive personality, not exactly. I'm a rather dominant woman in my vanilla life. I do, however, crave the dominance of a strong man who knows how to take control of His sub and their relationship. I'm also drawn to sadists lol Yes, I'm a bit of a pain slut, as they say. I'm into pushing my personal limits to achieve ultimate pleasure so long as it is with someone I trust and feel comfortable with. I tend to prefer High Protocol dynamics, as I find the structure best suits my kink and fetish needs. That, of course, requires a man who is capable of reigning in my sometimes wild ways *smile*

You're a newbie though, so I don't know... You might not be well-versed in that type of thing. I also noticed you're younger than I am. What draws your to older women? Or was it just me?

Peace,

Nick

P.S. I've been spending less time on here, so can we switch to email? Hit me up at [email protected]

Subj: One Step Closer...

Good evening Nicole,

Thank you for inviting me one step closer to you. I'm honored you trust me with your email address. I know there are a lot of weirdos out there, so it's risky.

So, what's a lovely woman like you doing on a Friday night? I'm sure you're out and about or on your way out. You seem like you keep a full social calendar. Well, at least you seem like the kind of woman people would want to be around often.

Yes, I'm new, but not a novice. I'm a grown man! LOL. I don't think 33 is a "young man". Well, maybe in The Life. I think I see what you mean ;) I might not be well-versed in the history and literature of the BDSM lifestyle from de Sade to Black Orpheus, but I know a few things. Particularly, I know how to handle women. I am well-equipped with what is needed to guide women, provide for them, and own them. Women like you are my preference, actually. You're not a challenge per se, but you know what you want out of life and that makes my job that much easier. All I have to do is make sure you do your best to get it and do so according to what I deem is the best for you.

Got it?

Yeah. It's like that.

Good evening, Mr. Woods,

It's like that? Hmmm. We'll see. We shall definitely see.

I'm just getting in, actually. Went to get some drinks with some of my girlfriends. We try to get together at least once a month when our schedules can line up. It's becoming increasingly difficult to do so these days. I'm a little tipsy lol

I think I'm going to just catch the repeat of Bill Maher before I pass out. What about you? What are you up to?

-Nick

P.s. When are you going to let me see what you look like? You didn't have any pictures posted on the site. You hiding from someone? You married? What's the deal?

Subj: Re: One Step Closer...

I like the way "Mr. Woods" reads coming from you. We'll stick with that for now. I'm attaching a picture. I don't have anything to hide, not really. I just don't put myself out there like that. I'm prefer my privacy. I'm not like you, superstar! And yes, I've seen you around other places online, so I'm up on what you're about. I read some of your blogs the last time I was in the air. You are definitely a fascinating woman. I appreciate how expository you are.

You watch Bill? I love that show. He really doesn't give a fuck does he? It cracks me up when he shits on his guests. I think I'll join you in watching that.

And, you can respond via g-chat. I see you are logged on.

Hello Mr. Woods

Hello Nicole

So here we are

Indeed. Here we are.

You're gorgeous.

Do you drink at all?

Every now and then. I tend to stay away from the stuff for the most part. And thank you :)

May I ask why?

You may ask.

Why do you stay away from alcohol, Mr. Woods?

My dad has had some issues with alcoholism. It's done a number on my family over the years, so I don't want to follow in his footsteps, if that makes sense.

It does. I'm sorry to hear that.

Not your fault

I know. Still... I work with substance abusers, so... I know the impact of alcoholism and drug abuse on families.

That's noble of you. Why did you choose that line of work?

I guess it chose me. I just feel like I was put here to help people.

You think you could help me?

With what do you need help, Mr. Woods?

I want to grow, Nicole. It's hard to explain. Or maybe to you it isn't. I want to grow into the man I know I can be. The man I know I am. The man that people might not understand, you know?

I know. I get it.

I find myself so frustrated sometimes, with no outlet. Knowing that there exists, within me, an insatiable hunger for things that don't make much sense, that I should know and accept are wrong, that I should deny myself.

You're not wrong.

How do I know that?

If you're wrong, then I'm wrong. I'm rarely wrong lol

Is that right?

Yup! :P

A brat. I see...

That's what they say. I just think I'm cute.

You are. You're also beautiful, sexy, and intriguingly captivating.

Well thank you, Sir.

Shit, I'm sorry... Mr. Woods

Either is fine. You know it, as do I.

Noted.

What are you wearing, Nicole?

White robe. You?

Show me.

Now?

Nicole... Do not make me repeat myself.

Ok. Hold on.

How do you want to see? Webcam? Emailed photo?

MMS. 267-555-9846

Hold on.

Received. Lovely. Your pout...is going to prove problematic.

I wasn't pouting!

No, you weren't, but it's there, behind the facade. There is a hint in the way your lips seem to quiver in the picture. You're a pouter. A pouty brat. We'll work on that.

I am not!

You're pouting now.

Aren't you?

Nfdsjfs;fdbdsvbdsjvbsd;vs

What was that? I couldn't hear you over the keyboard smash and through the pouting lol

Look at you acting like you know me.
