The group activities are all optional. It’s really only the meals at the mess hall which are more family-style.

Rowan

That’s doable. I’m still kind of new to the regression stuff, but I know Aaron likes being around like-minded people.

It warms my heart to read that. Aaron seems like a nice guy. Attentive to Rowan, but without hovering oppressively. Their dynamic, for the few minutes I watched them interact in the club, was sweet. I got the sense that, even though Rowan was outside of his comfort zone, Aaron would have dropped everything to take him home if he asked.

I’ll send you the link to their website. They do a summer and a winter camp every year. Worst case, you can try a couple of days and if it’s not for you, just leave early.

Rowan

Thanks.

After a beat, another couple of messages come through from him in quick succession.

Are there private bathrooms? Or are they all communal?

I’m a bit funny about sharing bathroom spaces.

I like my privacy, I guess.

Me

The private cabins have their own bathrooms. I think the cheaper group cabins have shared bathrooms, and there are communal toilet blocks, too.

Rowan

Good to know. Thank you!

Me

Anytime.

Then, before I can stop myself, my fingers fly over the littlekeypad again.

I’ve been spending some time with a Boy I met here.

I don’t even know why I send the message, but I can’t deny the way my shoulders sag and tension leeches from me once I have. I guess I just needed to tell someone. And I know I could go talk to Connor, but he’s living his best Daddy life with his camp Littles and I don’t really want him jumping straight to ‘and they lived happily ever after’ territory.

Rowan

That’s cool. Do you think you’ll keep in touch with him after the camp is over?

That’s the question of the day, though, isn’t it?

Me

Maybe.

After I hit send on my reply, my gut twists with dissatisfaction.

I want to be able to answer ‘yes’.

So, I guess that answers the question of the day, really.

Now I just need to man up and see if Benji feels the same way.
