They hadn’t spoken, but their passion had filled the room. At first, they’d both been timid, but then Eva had taken control, pressing Mindy against the counter as she delved deeper, tasting, licking, sucking.
Mindy shuddered as she remembered the feel of Eva sucking her tongue just enough to make her moan.
“How old were you, Baby girl?”
“Twenty.” So young. Too young? Too young to know her mind?
Mindy shivered as she remembered Eva’s hands moving from her jaw to her hair and then down her back and around to cup her breasts. She’d taken charge and been more aggressive than Mindy.
Mindy’s nipples hardened against Tricia’s forearm at the memory. She squirmed as she realized she was wet.
“What happened to Eva?” Tricia inquired.
“I never saw her again. My mother walked in while we were…making out. She lost her shit. I packed my favorite things that night, left the house, and never looked back.”
“I’m so sorry, Baby girl. That must have been so hard.”
“I never let myself think about it,” Mindy admitted. “I just knew I needed to get away from my mother. She was toxic. I needed to go far away and make my own life.”
“Did you know then you were Little?”
“Yes, but I wasn’t practicing the dynamic. I had no way to do so until I got far away. When I was finally settled in my own apartment, I threw myself into focusing on my Little side. I think I forced the kiss to the back of my mind. It was easier to ignore it. It didn’t have to mean anything. It was just an experiment.”
“But it had meant something, hadn’t it, Baby girl?”
Mindy nodded as silent tears fell down her cheeks.
“How many people have you kissed since then, Mindy?”
Mindy sniffled as she lowered her gaze. “None.”
“Have you ever dated a boy, Baby girl?”
Mindy shook her head.
“Why do you think that is?”
Mindy shrugged. “I don’t even notice them,” she admitted.
“Do you notice girls?” Tricia asked gently.
Mindy thought about that question for a few moments. “Sometimes.”
“What about Eva? Do you think about her? Do you wonder where she is and what she’s doing?”
Mindy shook her head. “No.” Her heart was racing as she turned her head to look at Tricia. For the first time in her life, she needed to be brave and honest. “I only think about you.”
Tricia blinked a few times before letting out a long breath. She turned Mindy in her arms so she was settled sideways on her lap. She cupped Mindy’s face and smiled. “I think about you too, Baby girl. All the time.”
Mindy finally let her lips turn up. It felt strange and good to smile after feeling lost and lonely for so long.
“I’ve been waiting for you to show an interest in me beyond friendship for weeks, Baby girl. I didn’t want to pressure you, but lately you’ve grown depressed, so I met with Dr. Farwell and the others to talk about what to do.”
“You did?”
Tricia nodded. “Several times in fact. You’ve never given any specific indication that you wanted or were open to having a Mommy. However, you don’t make eye contact with men, nor do you react to their touch unless I’m in the room.”
Mindy’s cheeks heated.
