141Please respect copyright.PENANA2qOgeZ0znh
Bethany lays on Grayson's chest in his arms as he rests his eyes, her doing the same in his shared apartment where Ester, Mikey and Solayo reside. Sitting not far from Bethany and Grayson is an empty cheese, chocolate and fruit platter and an elequoant empty bottle, two glasses.141Please respect copyright.PENANA2eM4ir2t4f
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6MTejwP3tJ
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.141Please respect copyright.PENANAnkvBtDdC33
141Please respect copyright.PENANA1zhqerc0df
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."141Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6USg85RGV
141Please respect copyright.PENANALg4juzQn54
"I'm suprised his..."141Please respect copyright.PENANAdGWIqO8jLs
141Please respect copyright.PENANAyV3ns4Cmwd
"He just doesn't wanna stay down there miserable that bastard. His doing this for himself rather than for the benfit of everyone in this community, to get time outside."141Please respect copyright.PENANAve5fv4rvam
141Please respect copyright.PENANACdDOp0qtPL
"Well, it's not really time outside. He doesn't get to go out onto the farm or anything. It's still the lower floors in the minus." Estes speaks up.141Please respect copyright.PENANAb0czF1KxGm
141Please respect copyright.PENANAqQsctqavSl
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAzWTRk5U7sa
141Please respect copyright.PENANAFycSDe5HWY
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.141Please respect copyright.PENANASKY1ICX1Ee
141Please respect copyright.PENANAO9QGcP4cg0
"As long as it takes all of them. One doesn't get to leave, they all have to be ready. The chaos that would ensue if each one isn't ready and able to cope- What are you doing, Grayson?" Solayo speaks up, eyes annoyed when he sees Beth, the food and the booze.141Please respect copyright.PENANAI1Z3APH4GY
141Please respect copyright.PENANAeiKQDkkjQ7
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"141Please respect copyright.PENANAxw2lRo3kqX
141Please respect copyright.PENANAAnm12fafp1
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.141Please respect copyright.PENANAdFxZgSye18
141Please respect copyright.PENANAd0xH5wXzCT
"Shut up both of you. Grayson, please get your boxers on and yes or no, answer me honestly. Are you fooling around or do you like her? Because we have spent the last two months getting the ones who came back on meds as well, and this could disrupt her regime.141Please respect copyright.PENANAhZjc2ABGjB
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6vJyHGSyMG
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAUyVHOacOFf
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7jDFexkgyw
"She won't freak out. Merge erases their backstory, but not your consciousness. She wanted to- what her and me did, we both wanted this.141Please respect copyright.PENANAeaimYEy1gW
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7zM9MZ4uvX
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."141Please respect copyright.PENANAavRP1JeqNo
141Please respect copyright.PENANA4wv4DPPF5Y
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure if Slate knew, he'd have something to say about that-" But Mikey doesn't get to finish, Solayo backhanding him behind the ear. "I'm sorry, Solayo." 141Please respect copyright.PENANAfXcJnpVQvB
141Please respect copyright.PENANARW8qJxcnDY
"He wouldn't, neither him or her barely remember eachother. She forgot how she came here, and now she forgot being here and escaping and it's the same for him." Solayo hisses. "As far as those two are concerned, the other is just a stranger who resides on the same floor as and they don't know how they got here except the false story I told them, they came at diffrent times.141Please respect copyright.PENANAJmoGmfAJtF
141Please respect copyright.PENANAZDhmZyBNuw
They barely interact socially."141Please respect copyright.PENANAzf5lhIs0HV
141Please respect copyright.PENANA2NEWHwbDf6
"Gray, for fuck sake. Just pick up your pants." Ester says annoyed. "Hey, baby. I'm sorry, I'm just goanna move for a second." Grayson tells Beth gently, moving her head off his lap, pulling the bed sheet around him while he grabs his pants.141Please respect copyright.PENANABkq4lvDWHn
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6Wqm288PS8
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.141Please respect copyright.PENANAFiOjbcb546
141Please respect copyright.PENANAvhLBr8cTM9
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.141Please respect copyright.PENANAIw5OkTa3he
141Please respect copyright.PENANAtfg2RCkNUs
"Uh..."141Please respect copyright.PENANA4OuvzUh7X6
141Please respect copyright.PENANAkJuVcmaajA
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAPF3iIiken8
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3juSdceDgB
"Ester, I'm sorry-"141Please respect copyright.PENANA3ERCKa6KB3
141Please respect copyright.PENANAqdew6VUe13
"Don't you Ester me!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAHM8ZEHIGFB
141Please respect copyright.PENANAk7bu8PzZY7
"Listen to her." Solayo snarls. "Now, I'm going to go set the table now for dinner. Get Beth dressed again and take her backdownstairs-" 141Please respect copyright.PENANABqeYoHF42Y
141Please respect copyright.PENANAQBtMzy4MrX
When there is a squeal, Beth diving for the small cheese knife. It's on the blunt side, but it's the only weapon in sight.141Please respect copyright.PENANAiN9Ayi1784
141Please respect copyright.PENANAbA8QvOPjWK
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.141Please respect copyright.PENANAtpnGcLvK56
141Please respect copyright.PENANAahBusQH1fB
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.141Please respect copyright.PENANAMvqHyO5GzV
141Please respect copyright.PENANA7Olo2jip44
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.141Please respect copyright.PENANATdwy3QvRim
141Please respect copyright.PENANABck0LYxkH9
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.141Please respect copyright.PENANAjXnjWDAw4w
"We don't care, her meds are the problem! The open alochol there, the endorphines from- I'm not going to finish that last part!" Ester yells back.141Please respect copyright.PENANABRklf4J6yE
141Please respect copyright.PENANAIOH5kM3QMt
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.141Please respect copyright.PENANATMsHUH4dax
141Please respect copyright.PENANAWn4FZKquTL
"You don't remember us talking and-" 141Please respect copyright.PENANAFpg6dlFT3W
141Please respect copyright.PENANAN53FygI0xc
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAfYasN5sM2U
141Please respect copyright.PENANAe3cxUBZ0xW
"Beth, I know you're scared. But I need you to hand over the knife. Can you do that? Hand it to me?" Mikey coaxes, gently sliding towards Bethany, gesturing with his hand when she aims it at him, threatening him too.141Please respect copyright.PENANAbCWpPTGqfv
141Please respect copyright.PENANAHKdITyGoz6
"Woah!"141Please respect copyright.PENANAIBNsvdnU3n
141Please respect copyright.PENANAb6XviSKHSk
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAUEVEx3di8v
141Please respect copyright.PENANAohtOptpcSe
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.141Please respect copyright.PENANAlwDwDJuHgo
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAlzcdG4OHnh
141Please respect copyright.PENANAWtVGDgn8le
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.141Please respect copyright.PENANAgz8NEWQ4De
141Please respect copyright.PENANAt1tJuCnMrP
When Beth's dressed, Ester has her sit and Mikey comes back over to them while Grayson hangs back a short distance. Solayo comes back over.141Please respect copyright.PENANA3zeqE8xuCq
141Please respect copyright.PENANAlsccltytXm
"Now, Beth. This won't hurt much, just a small prick-" But she dives away, Mikey grabbing her by the foot and pulling her back. "No, you don't!" He yells. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAz4cgoJXARt
141Please respect copyright.PENANAO8IZqIDoQ0
"Let go of me!" Beth yells at him, Ester stepping away as Solayo takes her other arm, assisting and presses down with the needle. "No, no! Ah-" She cries, starting to cry. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAcPBPUpV7OJ
141Please respect copyright.PENANAs9qKzcSJ0b
He and Mikey roughly pick her up and move her from Grayson's bed to Ester, on account hers as restraints attached already... they secure them.141Please respect copyright.PENANA8Do6uVbjyT
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3vSUnwJL8V
Ester sitting beside Mikey on his bed as they have dinner, Grayson on his own and Solayo on his own. They're almost finished when Beth wakes up a bit. Solayo quickly places his plate aside, hops down to Beth's level gently brushing her hair aside and keeps brushing her forehead.141Please respect copyright.PENANAYOmHv679ON
141Please respect copyright.PENANAPjNboutuk3
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."141Please respect copyright.PENANAIWivN1vwyI
141Please respect copyright.PENANAUyX32dCKuT
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAts28g0qNI6
141Please respect copyright.PENANAaltW8DUBRA
She nods weakly, struggling to keep her eyes open. "Okay, let's go there then." and he undoes the straps, lifting her up in his arms. "Mikey, with me. You both, stay here." He says annoyed as he leaves their apartment with Beth, Mikey following.141Please respect copyright.PENANA6sK4CNsOMC
141Please respect copyright.PENANA1k0xHYKJMQ
Outside, he gives Mikey his pass and have him swipe the door rendering Ester and Grayson's pass useless, then gives it back to Solayo who snatches it and continues off towards the elevator. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAnCVXxYsX7J
141Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7rocZGklB
When they head to floor 13, the rest of our group is dressed and ready for bed having had dinner when they see Solayo and Mikey with bed.141Please respect copyright.PENANA4UCqz9PXNE
141Please respect copyright.PENANAjCD3bdfABj
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAiaXqdgRrFQ
141Please respect copyright.PENANAzHnAAcinxq
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAF0hkzJN2sZ
141Please respect copyright.PENANAro96CIJdIA
"Good."141Please respect copyright.PENANAqyoPD0dOaE
141Please respect copyright.PENANAyITdwjEBmy
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 141Please respect copyright.PENANAQnp5vp2AHS
141Please respect copyright.PENANACd23S3Wp39
And Slate heads into his room, Mikey locking it behind him. He then ushers Cloud, Lyla and Gideo into their respective rooms. Paisley is already in bed, hardly leaves hers. "Night, Paisley. Sweet dreams..." Mikey trails off awkwardly, locking it.141Please respect copyright.PENANAg3X2AmXwdA
141Please respect copyright.PENANAqRPxWAOJpm
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 141Please respect copyright.PENANARj0gvbgsS0
141Please respect copyright.PENANABkb4jprX5p
"Nah, we don't need em. She's calmer and we'll just sleep this off. Plus she ate anyway even if it wasn't dinner..."141Please respect copyright.PENANAMP6Ix1TP4Q
141Please respect copyright.PENANAzYr5pseGuI
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."141Please respect copyright.PENANAiEIheI7AqS
141Please respect copyright.PENANA9rSXrAos5B
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."141Please respect copyright.PENANA0zF3wUpXqe
141Please respect copyright.PENANAjfuP25ggPh
"Okay. Y-yeah..."141Please respect copyright.PENANAPC5U1fW2OE
141Please respect copyright.PENANAX0bhVDFNTO
"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 141Please respect copyright.PENANApvdxoiPZFD
141Please respect copyright.PENANAJRb7HvHNwm
And our pair leave, dimming the lights to the floor for the evening.141Please respect copyright.PENANAB3hfqUF8pn

(Three and half years later)141Please respect copyright.PENANApz9YUrIMeC
141Please respect copyright.PENANAbHhN0kUE0s
Our group now around 24-25 not that they know it are all getting out today, three years and a half is a long time, but they hardly recall over half their time. Working towards this part of their rehabilation was difficult when the real truth is it was never about redemption, it was just cruel punishment before it even began and after constant drugging, it's a concept they can't comprehend.141Please respect copyright.PENANA63MkvnGKuA
141Please respect copyright.PENANAhz7YycpVyD
Bethany's lying beside Gideon, head resting on shoulder as he sits on the floor, bouncing a plastic handball against the wall, coming right back to him.141Please respect copyright.PENANAvuYIHtfs5d
141Please respect copyright.PENANAbR4ehFTMWW
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.141Please respect copyright.PENANAYFEsWspqKc
141Please respect copyright.PENANAG9RVkS1b9A
"Morning all." Cloud speaks up, coming out of his room. He recieves a few half hearted replies. With the group fairly unresponsive, he checks in on Lyla and Paisley, waking both girls. They each come out of their room.141Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4LNRCqwaY
141Please respect copyright.PENANAsMk1sdJlOI
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.141Please respect copyright.PENANAiKKz0cPBIN
141Please respect copyright.PENANA4EvQVRF7jH
It seems we are actually getting out today so if you all could collect up what you have here that would be great, and it's also my understanding when we process out, there is some additional stuff we're to collect that we couldn't have due to safety."141Please respect copyright.PENANA3OvI2vRE2l
141Please respect copyright.PENANA10AzkDCvBa
"Safety?" Slate whispers. "Uh, I think you drew occasionally? I'm not sure, but I guess they didn't want you stabbing yourself, them or us with them.
Like the tip." Cloud answers awkwardly.141Please respect copyright.PENANAbVBGtwGwb0
141Please respect copyright.PENANAF8cXgW2HrQ
Unlike the others, he knows the Tomorrow Party and is good at faking it for the long haul. The amount of time he cheeked the unesscary drugs, disposed of them and never got caught. Three years though down here was a long time when you are aware and awake for it all.141Please respect copyright.PENANArEG4hUz46w
141Please respect copyright.PENANAcrGBkBvBw4
"So, that's it for the morning announcements. Breakfast is coming I believe and medication." He finishes, the door at the end of the corridor opening right on time. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAji0BFGsget
141Please respect copyright.PENANAmUHrIDrRfd
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.141Please respect copyright.PENANA5yZvQip0l7
141Please respect copyright.PENANAODeDm9erRq
"Good, good. So eveyone, breakfast, then meds and grab your stuff please and then we are going to process you out into the population. You have stuff to collect you couldn't have down here, we trust you to hold them and behave appopritely."141Please respect copyright.PENANAiLKCLJAjmB
141Please respect copyright.PENANAlgs1DhyQbT
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.141Please respect copyright.PENANA8HPc5nCJey
141Please respect copyright.PENANAdYShn0DVEj
While they all eat, the leaders prepare their meds. "How you doing?" Solayo smiles, bending down to Paisley even though it's no longer Paisley, a topic that has not been discussed. The girl she is now knows, but rarely talks because what is she meant to say? Lyla and her know they are twins as they look the same, but each feel nothing emotionally.141Please respect copyright.PENANAWF1LNVeslM
141Please respect copyright.PENANA5IrHICahHi
He holds out her med cup for her to take which contains the least amount of medication than everybody else. Inside is just one single tablet. She gulps it down, followed by a cup of water.141Please respect copyright.PENANAtUNCTID3BN
141Please respect copyright.PENANA5GjDHLX9pv
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.141Please respect copyright.PENANAfGc8OFTKrG
141Please respect copyright.PENANA0W2Qu64TGA
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 141Please respect copyright.PENANAPkTmt4KX1W
141Please respect copyright.PENANA2P950e2UUq
"Uh, fine I guess."141Please respect copyright.PENANAkKMRHbZa8Y
141Please respect copyright.PENANAEyC18ILyh8
"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAZuN7NjpsgL
141Please respect copyright.PENANAxjqIWX0TQh
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAG74iZetu3Y
141Please respect copyright.PENANAjcrEAs08rL
"There will be, I don't want you and others to be bored and sitting down here really doesn't feel all that productive, yeah?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAAey187kwGm
141Please respect copyright.PENANA3pej5pIdn0
"Yes, Sir."141Please respect copyright.PENANAOpdZd1577J
141Please respect copyright.PENANAm7bX5Du8Tu
"Your meds." 141Please respect copyright.PENANAf8sgAWYaSb
141Please respect copyright.PENANAlHYJ6WHYy3
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.141Please respect copyright.PENANA43CVuphW6W
141Please respect copyright.PENANAVUc0agiqcO
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."141Please respect copyright.PENANAt4mPAR9ZKh
141Please respect copyright.PENANAYP2sQ5HIjX
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.141Please respect copyright.PENANASGqtI1nCEr
141Please respect copyright.PENANA27cjnePY8f
"Better now that you all are here."141Please respect copyright.PENANAR8bL6RX3gI
141Please respect copyright.PENANAECLs6kHPjR
"You like our visits, good, good." Is Solayo's response. Despite the drugs, Beth's mood and fractured time eventally settled a bit for her to be able to go out with Grayson a bit. There was times they all got to leave for medical appointments and stuff, but she got to leave for other things sometime.141Please respect copyright.PENANAxDXMwzMheZ
141Please respect copyright.PENANA2YXxcX1Nr3
Only small though, sitting with Grayson on his lunchbreak even if it was only in the leaders apartment. No matter what it was, she looked forward to those far and few between events.141Please respect copyright.PENANAPJSOIdJHrG
141Please respect copyright.PENANAVF9DjLXYSh
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.141Please respect copyright.PENANAi6cGf95FjU
141Please respect copyright.PENANA9ezuDBPR5G
"Do I have to take them?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAhTawFbJbW6
141Please respect copyright.PENANA6Mmba3YDr8
"You do, we've been over this. You know how we explained to you before that your mood was quite, well, it changed rapidly through out the day?"141Please respect copyright.PENANAt4aOt0i9hM
141Please respect copyright.PENANAOTnqUT4FZ9
"Yeah."141Please respect copyright.PENANAMnjkbAC9aw
141Please respect copyright.PENANADNfQGHKZYH
"That's why, and sometimes you posed a threat to yourself, saw things and had seizures. We didn't want you to get hurt so that is why you take these meds so that doesn't happen again ever."141Please respect copyright.PENANAtWxT5bNME5
141Please respect copyright.PENANAMBzZw2xlif
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"141Please respect copyright.PENANA2VsACn4LXr
141Please respect copyright.PENANAT6SKOVWORW
"If you're not ready to leave and your companions can't leave either-" He begins. "No, no. I'll take them. I'm sorry, Sir." She panics, downing them.141Please respect copyright.PENANALEkTMY2Xj1
141Please respect copyright.PENANADpabzzXor4
He checks her mouth seeing it's clear. "There we go, wasn't so hard." And stands. Once this is all over with, everyone collects the few clothes and items they have down here, the leaders leading them all to the elevator.141Please respect copyright.PENANAomdMk29AV6
141Please respect copyright.PENANAw7uoQK7wIS
They enter, no one handcuffed as opposed to when they first came down here. "So, as we have discussed before, it's all going to be very overwhelming, there will be alot of people.141Please respect copyright.PENANA7vfsZj3q8N
141Please respect copyright.PENANAwR23uG04FO
We'll show you your rooms, take today to familarize yourself with everything. The day begins at 6:30 for you all and ends at 7 p.m. Lights out are at 9 and no one is allowed in the hall outside that time.141Please respect copyright.PENANATm4yWVzWk6
141Please respect copyright.PENANAhc2fnK3vNk
Security will be patrolling the halls. The only reasonable excuse to leave is the bathroom or an emergency like a medical emergency or an alarm goes off signalling evacuation.141Please respect copyright.PENANAAUoyjmEB7p
141Please respect copyright.PENANAkBBS6Ouq6u
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."141Please respect copyright.PENANAr7wPSNvVcb
141Please respect copyright.PENANAbINusF6MA3
"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.141Please respect copyright.PENANAgPXu38lHRc
141Please respect copyright.PENANAksjtDN4DK0
The elevator reaches the main floor and they step out, all in awe as they walk along the bridge seeing the farm outside and sunlight streaming in from above.141Please respect copyright.PENANAjNLb3NJQpN
141Please respect copyright.PENANADF2WoxUSDU
"This is amazing." Gideon says, mouth open as they walk. They get a general tour. Cafeteria, shower and so on, are given their old tags with their first name on them and their keycards showing their access level. They are lead down a corridor that's a little more private and away from noise.141Please respect copyright.PENANAH5AqwOow5P
141Please respect copyright.PENANAzOCzu1yjx7
Two doors. "On the left here will be the boys dormitory. Gideon, Cloud and Zekey. Ya'll have a dog you forgot about. His in our apartment so Mikey will be going back to collect him. You take good care of Zekey.141Please respect copyright.PENANATrWzfKEMYh
141Please respect copyright.PENANARTxuthT19T
Girls, you're all in the right room." And he opens both for our pair to split up and enter, looking around. "You want to go collect the stupid dog? I'm tired of it peeing around the place."141Please respect copyright.PENANAqx0esvECoa
141Please respect copyright.PENANAbGmPogYNuT
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 141Please respect copyright.PENANATmd2e1NmsU
141Please respect copyright.PENANANN2M34targ
"Mikey, I don't want to hear it. Collect the damn dog." 141Please respect copyright.PENANArftxCD0fT9
141Please respect copyright.PENANACkbuzdcR9v
Ester goes with him to accompany him, Solayo leaves with Cloud to show him his room, a seperate private room all to his self and Grayson remains behind, gesturing for Bethany to come out and see him. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAEAKZcQ5fNT
141Please respect copyright.PENANAWuwxAqYXTz
She slips out while Lyla and Paisley are distracted putting their stuff away. "Hey you." She smiles, pushing Grayson against the wall, hands feeling his toned chest and starts kissing the side of his face, trailing down his neck. "Wow, okay. Thank you, that's nice." He blushes, pushing her away.141Please respect copyright.PENANAZpSFrm0tAp

She may think she loves you, but it's not built on anything concrete like actual dates and so fourth. Beth doesn't know anything more than this place's four walls.141Please respect copyright.PENANAhihj7PXBDX

You can ask her if she wants you to stick your dick inside her, but while she's taking so many meds? No. Just because she's saying yes, doesn't make it okay. 141Please respect copyright.PENANAPQTu0nTtVP
