Third Anniversary
Told y’all I’d be back when I had something fun to post. Actually, I have a great deal to say, but that will keep. For now, I’m in celebratory mode.
On July 25, 2012, I met Steve for the first time. Three years later, we’re still happily enjoying our play partnership and friendship. Yesterday, he showed up at my door, his arms laden with goodies for me — a huge bouquet of flowers, a bag of gourmet chocolate-chip cookies, and a sweet card, with a Starbucks gift card inside. I felt kinda bad that all I had for him was a card, but he assured me that I didn’t have to give him anything, that *I* was his gift. π
Post warm-up, he mused, “I want to put three stripes on your bottom and write ‘Happy anniversary’ on it.” Since I don’t mark that easily, this would take some planning. We decided to use my Delrin cane, and he would strike each of three spots repeatedly until a nice stripe showed up. Ouch. But I was game.
“Hold still,” he admonished, as I felt him writing all over my butt with a Sharpie. He practiced a few strokes of the cane on my pillow, getting his aim sharpened, and then we proceeded with our little masterpiece.
And here it is. Observe the three stripes. Also, observe that Mr. Clever used my butt crack to serve as the “i” in “Anniversary” and “Erica.”
“We are not amused…”
After that, he went to work with a few other implements, obliterating the stripes and leaving me gleefully glowing and pleasantly sore.
All kidding aside…
When Steve came into my life three years ago, I was reeling from ST’s abrupt exit. From the beginning, I shared my abandonment/rejection issues with Steve, and he said, “I’m not going anywhere.” Since then, those four words became his mantra with me. He has said them countless times — when I was feeling insecure and fearful, when we had disagreements and misunderstandings, whenever I needed reassurance. We have had our ups and downs, but three years later, my top is still here.
Thank you, Steve. For all the intense, pleasurably painful, fun, cathartic, and edgy scenes, forΒ being a good top, a good friend, a good man. For not going anywhere.
And aren’t my flowers beautiful? π
Congratulations on yours and Steve’s third anniversary! And, yes, you and your flowers are beautiful! β€οΈ

I can’t believe it’s been three years! Where does the time go? I’ve loved reading about your escapades with Steve. I’m sure there are many more to come.
I’m glad that you have a top who is solidly in your corner. Every relationship has its ups and downs but it’s how you work through the difficulties that matters.
All the best to you both. β€

Erica,
Happy Anniversary and thank you for sharing those fun pictures. Love that message on your bottom idea. By the way, you look radiant in that last photo with the flowers.
I must say you, your second intro sentence seems to be a bit concerning; hope all is well overall.
Best,
Enzo

It’s nice to see and hear you feeling happy. I think it is actually great that in three years you and Steve have had some bumps along the way – it shows in a concrete way that he really isn’t going anywhere. (There are others of us that a are also staying put, myself included).
