CHARLOTTE
“You look... pensive...” comments Michael. “What´s up?”
“Beth took me shopping today, to look at wedding dresses.”
He grins a little-boy grin. “Sounds like fun.”
“Yes... but...”
“But what? Don´t worry about the budget. Get what you want.”
“It´s not that. It´s...”
“What? Do I have to prise it out of you?”
“All they showed me were white dresses.”
My Master smiles. Michael bursts out laughing. “And that´s worrying you? Charlotte, it´s a long time since anyone worried about whether brides are virgins on their wedding night.”
“It just feels a bit... two-faced.”
My Master wraps long arms around me. “Charlotte. I would like you to wear white.”
“Master?”
“You will always be my Virgin.”
