#pay attention to me
Coming home from work to find you peacefully reading your book.
Did you notice my skirt? The way it flows around my body and tightens around my waist? What about the way my stilettos highlight my legs? I know you love my legs…
Maybe you’ll look up from your book when I sit myself on your lap. When I’m straddling you. Hiking my skirt up around my waist and grinding into you. Whimpering quietly into your ear and placing delicate kisses on your neck.
Sir, I want attention.
And I’m not ashamed to remind you what a slut I am until I get it.
Give me compliments, I said give me compliments
Apparently??? I can post gifs??? Holy shit, you’re all so lucky!
She/her I’m a girl
