Page 11 of A Little Bit Naughty

Isaac reminded himself that even though Remi had looked shocked earlier about his trans identity, he’d seemed genuinely interested in continuing afterward. And as for Isaac’s master Daddy plan, well, this wouldn’t count. It was only the weekend.

This could be a little taste of what it was like to have a real Daddy of his own some day.

The best and worst part of it all was that he really, really liked Remi.

Still, Isaac felt nervous walking around. He wasn’t usually shy, but he was wearing his favorite dinosaur jammies, and they made him feel revealed and exposed. Usually he loved the little flaps that covered his bare feet with felt claws at the end. He hadn’t even put up the hood that gave him a row of teeth and a pair of round eyes perched high up on his head.

His jammies were supposed to make him feel playful, cute, and above all, relaxed. But right now he was just anxious. If he’d gotten this wrong, he was going to feel ridiculous. Even in the kink world, age play was often misunderstood. He didn’t want to be doing this alone.

On the other hand, he’d gotten a friendly wave from another boy in the hall who appeared to be planning to go to the mixer in nothing but a pair of shiny blue underwear. So at least other people were taking the kink part seriously, even if it wasn’t in the same way.

Isaac could have gone for grown-up sexy this evening, and he wasn’t too worried about pulling it off. But it wasn’t what he wanted.

He paused on the landing that overlooked the atrium, alive with green plants and a small fountain, and looked around.

No Remi. His heart, which was already rabbiting around in his chest, beat a little faster.

The guy behind the desk spotted Isaac and gave him a cheerful nod.

Phew. That was a relief, actually. Isaac was pretty sure that this was Sebastian, the Daddy half of the couple that owned the lodge. He was wearing a leather harness that showed off his beefy chest and hairy belly, looking all Dominant and Daddy-like. If he approved of Isaac’s clothes, that meant he wasn’t too far off the mark.

Sebastian looked like he was about to call out a greeting, but Isaac held up a finger to his lips.

Sebastian gave him a wink. It was a very Daddy sort of wink, where Sebastian crinkled up his eyes like he was happy to see Isaac just for who he was. Combined with all the leather, he was definitely hot.

Isaac didn’t have any interest, though. Not when he had a Daddy of his own waiting for him.

Hopefully.

He made it to the bottom of the stairs and looked around. Maybe he’d arrived first, even though he was a few minutes late. He’d been sure that Remi wasn’t going to ditch him. Well, almost sure. Almost maybe sure.

That was the other half of why he was nervous.

Isaac really, really, didn’t want Remi to stand him up. It had happened before with people he’d met through Cuffd and other dating apps. He’d only been brave enough once to disclose his trans identity to someone in a bar, and the asshole had made a swift apology and turned away.

But Remi had gone on a nice walk with him and called him baby boy. Even after he knew. He’d also called him smart and sexy and adorable. Maybe Remi wasn’t the most knowledgeable about trans stuff, but it seemed like he was willing to try.

Had Isaac arrived so late that he’d already left?

From behind the desk, Sebastian waved his hand to get Isaac’s attention and then tilted his head helpfully to the right.

Isaac spun around and saw Remi right away. He’d been looking toward the front of the lodge with the fountain, but Remi was sitting in one of the cozy chairs toward the back. It wasn’t quite hidden, but it would be more private than the front, so it made sense. Remi was reading something on his phone and hadn’t looked up yet.

So far, so good.

Isaac took a minute just to look. Tommy had cross-examined him for every possible detail earlier, and Remi was even sexier than Isaac remembered. He was a hefty white guy with a cuddly belly and thick arms. It wouldn’t have surprised Isaac at all if he did something tough and outdoorsy from his build, but he had a soft, calm way of moving and sitting that matched his chemistry instructor profession much better. Isaac especially liked the hair that fell over his forehead in a swoop. With Remi’s chiseled jaw, it reminded him of Superman.

But a snuggly, squishy, Daddy sort of Superman.

Remi had barely changed his clothes from earlier, still wearing the same jeans and hiking boots, which Isaac found he appreciated. He wouldn’t mind seeing Remi in a leather harness sometime, but a t-shirt made him look cozy and safe.

It also made the pressure much lower. Isaac still wasn’t sure about doing anything sexual, and Remi had dressed to match. More points to Remi on this one.

Isaac drifted a little closer, holding Roarasaurus closer and trying to work up his courage.

He could finally read Remi’s new shirt. It had a picture of a children’s wooden block with the letter D, and it read D is for Daddy.

Good. That was very good. Now Isaac just had to find something to say.
