Graham pointed to the second floor whichhad been planned to go over the section of the club which would house thedemonstration areas on the first floor. “I think the heat rooms and smallerprivate rooms should be moved to this part of the club.” He dragged his fingeracross the plans. “It will be easier to vent them this way and will keep thetwo areas more separate and private if we don’t have to put the stairs to thesecond floor beside the demo area.”
Nodding, I pointed to the area where theheat rooms had been going. “We’re going to have all this space to use now. Whatdo you suggest? If we’re going to extend the second floor to cover the wholebuilding, then that gives us more options.”
“But how much will it increase the budget?”Bradley could see the dollar signs adding up.
Graham shrugged. “I’m pretty sure it willbe minimal.”
He started going on and on about supportbeams and loads, but from what he was saying, the new layout would give us morespace upstairs and wouldn’t cost us much more. That worked for me, so as hefinished his longwinded explanation, I jumped in again. “I know we don’t needto have everything completely ironed out today, but the new space, should that bea long, large room like another demo space or should it be broken up?”
When everyone shrugged and Graham justlooked around at us questioningly, I turned to Silas. He came over and scannedthe plans and Graham’s new notes. Pointing to the new second floor, heshrugged. “Feel free to ignore me, but I think these should be permanent spacesfor groups like pups or littles.”
The words were slightly familiar, but wemust have given him some great blank looks because he chuckled. “I keepforgetting how hard it is to find stuff online unless you know where to lookfor it.” He turned to Shane. “I’ll send you some links to forward to everyoneelse.”
“Role-playing, right?” I thought back tothe things I’d found online. The sites that talked about other forms ofsubmission were so vague they hadn’t been helpful.
Silas nodded and started in on a basicexplanation. In the end, we decided the different playrooms would be a goodidea, and if they weren’t used very often, it would be easy to keep themblocked off. “You might also want to consider eating into this space some and puttingin some aftercare rooms for people who’ve been doing scenes. They don’t have tobe big, so I don’t think it will be a problem.”
Graham nodded but pointed to the smallerrooms upstairs. “I know you wanted these heat-proofed, but what else do you wantto do in them? If you're going to want one to have a bathroom for water play oranything like that, it’s something we need to consider.”
“Yes.” They all looked at me like I wasinsane. “I’m not into it—stop looking at me like that—but if other people willwant it or want to explore it then we need to make sure we have it available.Everyone has different fantasies.”
Silas chuckled. “I bet you have enoughfantasies that it won’t be hard to plan the theme rooms.”
I grinned. “Oh yes.”
Graham smiled. “As interesting as yourimagination is, I have to get going. I’d like to get them planned out in thenext couple of days, though, so we can get it finalized.”
I wasn’t going to volunteer for that dutybecause all my extra time this week would be going to Silas. Glancing around, Igrinned when Jonah spoke up. “I’m the most flexible…with my time, I mean. Whendo you want to meet?”
I waggled my eyebrows and leered at Jonah.“Flexibility is important.” Then as he blushed, I glanced at Graham. “He’s alsovery open-minded, so don’t worry about how innocent he looks. You won’t scarehim.”
There was no point in letting Graham thinkthat Jonah was some kind of fainting debutant.
Jonah rolled his eyes. “Thanks, you’re sohelpful.”
I shrugged, doing my best to look innocent andhappy. “I like helping you. What can I say?”
Laughter rolled through the room as Grahamgot ready to leave. As he and Jonah spoke quietly, planning when they wouldmeet—or at least that was what they were pretending—I threw my arms aroundSilas. “I need more coffee, then a spanking.”
And then maybe a nap after some greatmind-blowing sex.
Silas grinned, wicked and dark. “You do,huh? I’m not sure if you deserve one.”
Before I could go into detail about justhow much I deserved an ass-tingling spanking, Shane came over and cleared histhroat. “One thing before you leave.”
I sighed, but leaned into Silas and wiggleduntil he wrapped his arms around me. “Just don’t make him frustrated with me.”
Shane chuckled. “I’m sure you’ll accomplishthat on your own.”
Laughing, I nodded. He’d gotten so muchmore relaxed around us since he’d started seeing Tanner. He was still a bitstuffy, but now he wasn’t afraid to tease and show the sides of his personalitythat Tanner liked so much. “I just needed to tell you that we’re going to haveto get you another driver.”
I huffed. Damn it. I’d been trying to begood. “I didn’t do anythi—”
“No.” Shane shook his head. “He took aposition elsewhere and didn’t leave us any notice, unfortunately. I’ll come upwith a list in the next day or two and we’ll get someone new hired quickly.”
As relieved as I was that the asshole wasgone, I wasn’t looking forward to getting used to a new asshole. “Thanks. Iguess it can’t be helped.”
Forcing a smile, I looked up at Silas. “Howabout you help me find more coffee?”
