February 14, 2363

I guess I was too young to care when I was still on Luna as a child, but the 14th of February is an earth holiday called Valentine's day. Travis caught me entirely by surprise when I woke up to a bouquet of blue roses and a breakfast of cantaloupe, grapes and honeydew.

We'd just finished a run a day and a half before, so we were killing time at the station. I was mildly perplexed when Travis wanted to get a super swanky room, instead of just the standard sized one we usually got.

He didn't stop with breakfast either. There were candles, music and a fancy bubble bath we shared. Sex in a bubble bath is fun, but does have to go a little softer than usual since it's so easy to slip with all the water and bubbles involved.

For an early dinner, he found some filet mignon. The real stuff, not replicated, which he seared for me and grilled to medium well for himself. I teased him about ruining his meat by over cooking it, and he insisted that only sushi and Klingon food should be so uncooked.

When I admitted I didn't know what sushi was, he promised he'd take me to the best place for it he knew, next time we were on earth. His sister Wendy introduced him to the place, so we'll probably bring her along when we go.

From the way he grinned when I asked if we'd take Grace too, I am beginning to suspect that he's intentionally trying to make me into a role model for his niece. It's kind of weird to have a girl who I hardly know, and I'm not related to, looking up to me. It's also kind of flattering that someone holds me in high enough regard that he's not only willing to date me, but he considers me a good enough person to be a role model to his niece. I'm not used to people outside of the family thinking that highly of me.

After dinner, Travis pulled out a box and handed it to me to open. Inside was an earth undergarment called a corset, a leather one. I was puzzled, but he asked me to put it on. He had to help because I'd never seen one before, but he soon had me laced in, wearing nothing else. I'm actually amazed he did finish lacing me in, he kept getting sidetracked with this part of my body and that he felt just needed to be kissed or bit.

I still didn't understand the appeal of the thing once he'd finished lacing me in, even when he'd shown me what I looked like wearing it. He couldn't keep his hands, his lips or his teeth off me while I was wearing it though, so I started to appreciate it. It did annoy me that there were limitations on my movement in it though, but each time I growled about something I couldn't do wearing the corset, Travis was right there compensating or distracting me. I could almost get used to that. I also kind of liked the feel of it being rigid and skin tight, almost like an armor. I even think my orgasm was more intense in the end.

I've been working on Travis on the topic of public sex since his friend's new years party, and he's been resistant so far. When I suggested it during the afterglow of the corset sex, he said he'd consider it if I'd wear my new corset when we do it. I suppose that's a fair trade, though I think that also means I'll have to wear a skirt or something with it to make the outfit acceptable in public.
