“They won’t fit, and I want to keep them all with me.” It was sad picturing any of them stuck in my luggage under the plane. What if they got scared and needed a hug?

“Why don’t you take one out to carry and then put the toys in your luggage but your stuffies in your backpack. Will that work?”

Huh. “Maybe?”

“Knock-knock,” Daddy Jack called out as he peeked inside our room. “There’s an empty piece of luggage in the living room that’s perfect for extra stuffies.”

“There you go, Princess. Your toys can play with Vale’s toys on the way home.” Mommy was so smart.

“Good idea, then they won’t be lonely.” It was hard to pick favorites, but Loxi, Princess, s’more, and a couple of others went into the backpack. Princess Bride I’d carry, and the rest went in the luggage with Vale’s. Vale sat on the bag while I zipped it up.

“Whew, that was hard.” He had his monkey backpack on.

“Why are you dressed to go?”

“Silly monkey,” Daddy Jack shook his head and smiled. “We’re not leaving until the morning. Why don’t the two of you set your backpacks with the luggage so it all stays together.”

“’Kay, Daddy.” Vale slid his off and I ran and got mine, then Mommy called out it was our turn to shower.

“Mommy,” she was scrubbing my hair which made it hard to think. “Can I wear my bride veil on the plane? I want to be matchies with my Princess Bride bear.”

“I don’t see why not, sweetheart. What do you think about having a movie night tonight in the living room? You and Vale can cuddle up on the floor. Maybe we can order ice cream from room service if you’re a good girl and eat all your dinner.”

My head bobbed up and down, already fixated on the ice cream part of that. “Yes Mommy, I’ll be a good princess and eat all my dinner. Ice cream is the best and so is movie night.”

“Mommy, can I get a binkie?” For some reason, I’d been fixated on sucking on something when I relaxed. It was like once the idea popped into my head I couldn’t shake it. My eyes were glued to Mommies chest when I fell asleep on her but I was afraid to ask for what I really wanted.

“Absolutely. Did you want bottles too?”

“No, Mommy.” My eyes dropped again. It was like I just couldn’t help it. I don’t know if it was the sucking part of it I was drawn to or the comfort part or just that it was Mommy.

“Is there something going on in that beautiful mind of yours you’d like to share with your Mommy?”

Did I?

Should I?

Would she think I was a freak?

“I um.” My finger had a mind of its own as it swirled around her nipple.

“Is my princess asking for special tickles?”

“No, Mommy. Well, I wouldn’t say no to that but…” Ugh, why was this so hard? “Could I um, since I don’t have a binky, could I.”

Mommy kissed the top of my head. “Nursing isn’t a fetish I’ve ever explored, and it tends to lead Mommy toward wanting special tickles.

” I giggled. How did she know what I was thinking?

Mommy never asked for special tickles, but if I wasn’t too sleepy.

.. “But if it helps my Princess sleep I’m willing to try. ”

My mommy was the bestest.

I sighed. Why had that been so hard to ask?

Because you’re still getting to know each other .

“Thank you, Mommy.”

“You’re welcome, my love.”

Mommy dried and dressed me in my pretty princess pj’s. Once she got everyone’s dinner order she called it in. “Princess and Vale, why don’t you pick a movie for us to watch while we eat?”

“Yay!” We both cheered and ran for the remote.

“No running you two.”

“Sorry, Daddy Jack.” I said at the same time Vale said, “Sorry, Daddy.”

“Let’s watch this one.” Vale picked the Princess and the Frog ‘cause he knew it was my favorite.

I kissed his cheek. “Thanks Monkey.”

“You’re welcome, Princess.” The giggles came when a new movie title popped into my head. “What’s so funny?”

“We should make our own movie—The Princess and her Monkey.” That led to more giggles from both of us and by the time we caught our breath the food was here.

“Yay! Pizza!” Vale and I were of one brain tonight. The grown-ups got boring grown-up food but Vale and I spread out on the floor with the blanket and pillows Mommy and Daddy Jack set up for us.

“Promise to eat your pizza?” Mommy asked us.

“Yes, Mommy.”

“Okay, here are your milkshakes. It was easier to order dessert now rather than later.”

“Thank you!”

We sang along with all the songs and wiggled our tushes as we ate. Too soon, the food was gone, our tummies were full, and the movie was over.

“Bedtime. We have an early morning tomorrow.” Mommy was right and Sarah was yawning. We helped clean up the living room and set up Sarah’s bed then said goodnight.

As soon as our bedroom door shut, Mommy stripped down. No matter how many times I saw her naked it never failed to take my breath away. “Mommy, do you know how beautiful you are?” She always told me I was, but had I said it enough to her?

“Thank you, Princess. It means more to hear it from your wife.”

He-he I was Mommy’s wife and princess. The best of both worlds!

“Come, on,” she patted the bed beside her. “Let’s see if we can’t get you wound down and to sleep.”

Why was I so nervous? Was there a right or wrong way to do this?

Pull up your big girl panties, Darcy, you’re the one who asked for it.

“Are you comfy, baby girl?”

My head rubbed against her chest. “Yes, Mommy.”

Mommy rolled toward me, tentatively I drew her nipple inside my mouth and sucked. Between mommy’s hands gently rubbing my back and the soothing suckling motion I reached that peaceful place my brain sought. If Mommy wanted special tickles she could wake me up, but for now, I was sleepy.
