Wrapped Up in Wool, Muffled by Merino, Silent & Swaddled: Catherine Sterling Mummified, Mitted & Gagged with Socks by Housemate Ami Mercury!
The air hung cold and still, the A/C groaning like a dying beast, stuck on freeze. I curled socked toes, pressing into the shag carpet fibers for warmth, my petite frame swallowed by a thick turtleneck and duster cardigan in soothing hues of purple. Wool everywhere - baskets full, half-finished scarves dXXXXd over the armchair. A cozy nest, but not enough.
Ami sat nearby, serene in her own knitted cocoon, eyes flicking from her book to me. A slow smile curled her lips. We came together for a hug and shared warmth. Then Ami had an idea … She reached for the yarn.
First, my legs. Cool fingers brushing my soles before winding soft alpaca around my ankles, spiraling upward. Layer upon layer, snug and unyielding. My white denim jeans disappeared beneath the weave, my toes tingling as she pulled each loop tight.
Then, the socks.
Not for my feet.
She slid thick Arran socks, that matched my own, over my hands. Fingers tucked into the woolen toes, palms smothered. A primitive mitten, a tender restraint. She bound my wrists to my sides with more yarn, elbows pressed to my ribs, arms being sealed. Upward she went ... chest, ribs, breasts ... each wrap tighter, hotter, a cocoon forming. My sweater vanished beneath the wool. My breath came quicker, shallower, as the fibers climbed.
The gag.
A sock, rolled thick and soft, pressed between my lips. A slight protest as the tickly fibres stuck to my tongue. Just a moan, muffled, as she stuffed it in place, the knit compressed, then swelled, filling behind my teeth, and effectively sealing my mouth.
Blindfold next.
Her scarf ... long, cable knit in mustard, yet scented with vanilla ... wound once, twice, three times around my head. Over my mouth, my nose, my eyes. Over my long hair. Tied in a knot and tucked tight at the collarbone below my turtle neck.
No sight.
No sound but my pulse.
No voice.
Just the pressure. The warmth. The containment.
I writhed slightly, testing the binds. Immovable.
She circled me, Converse sneakered feet silent on the floor. A hand brushed my cheek. Another tugged my bound shoulder, tilting me back onto the rug. I went easily.
Then, stillness.
I lay there, trapped in wool, in silence, in her world, soaking in the heat I'd been denied, bound not by rope, but by softness, by care, by intent.
Frozen no more.
I was on fire.
