55Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Mysg8EY5
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANArpEwyhOmnh
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlkODF2UAYZ
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.55Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ww5lUPDtz
55Please respect copyright.PENANAno52mXbAaC
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."55Please respect copyright.PENANAJS3zpkMX4x
55Please respect copyright.PENANAG0UuGMEi7L
"I'm suprised his..."55Please respect copyright.PENANA19Hl3kCSmr
55Please respect copyright.PENANA3E4YomhfPZ
"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."55Please respect copyright.PENANAqwAUnnYmmF
55Please respect copyright.PENANA6SH2RW24Yr
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANASydiW7aE5r
55Please respect copyright.PENANAE0Ic6wLGTC
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAwPeKJCESpu
55Please respect copyright.PENANAgpR2QVXpXx
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.55Please respect copyright.PENANAv8xACcNDv5
55Please respect copyright.PENANAJXmq2zSqeB
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAaqe5jSmBfd
55Please respect copyright.PENANAHkoS65OSn7
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"55Please respect copyright.PENANAVYljOfsiJI
55Please respect copyright.PENANAEbAXxtEaZu
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.55Please respect copyright.PENANAZF9CotT0aW
55Please respect copyright.PENANAj3CxWOhulU
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAiVC3dXNnHz
55Please respect copyright.PENANAfYzRM7Mvjg
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAWsk2EGL1Dg
55Please respect copyright.PENANAcugGbXpAM6
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAN4p7TJYRxk
55Please respect copyright.PENANAzwlR9JsrZF
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."55Please respect copyright.PENANAy9Ywg28B0H
55Please respect copyright.PENANA05hwYDRMmb
"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." 55Please respect copyright.PENANAQwvVPJGnTw
55Please respect copyright.PENANA4kUlBJHYsi
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAZlxunWUztg
55Please respect copyright.PENANAqULu51bVcX
They barely interact socially."55Please respect copyright.PENANAPQab7y7lLC
55Please respect copyright.PENANA2RwBJdMYSo
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANApvgrfkjsgx
55Please respect copyright.PENANANEQdnGgRiF
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.55Please respect copyright.PENANAhnrp1M5hgL
55Please respect copyright.PENANAkb56IPkdPc
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.55Please respect copyright.PENANASCDdV3HXKf
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlACghsitvw
"Uh..."55Please respect copyright.PENANAWbAOo5uTVv
55Please respect copyright.PENANArZs5wIDKXu
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"55Please respect copyright.PENANAgk5Wp548Ql
55Please respect copyright.PENANAWDFocMIYEp
"Ester, I'm sorry-"55Please respect copyright.PENANALKdgV0DU9A
55Please respect copyright.PENANAwTmeYqAZzQ
"Don't you Ester me!"55Please respect copyright.PENANAt53C9eFRT2
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlRNIacVU0y
"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-" 55Please respect copyright.PENANA4R2rehloZq
55Please respect copyright.PENANAYi5JtVPU7U
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAwYu3OwpNOS
55Please respect copyright.PENANAHqLWidEage
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.55Please respect copyright.PENANAZaNEJ5Bwt1
55Please respect copyright.PENANA953RGxHTJ7
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.55Please respect copyright.PENANAnpDAjkjL9z
55Please respect copyright.PENANA5m9PqyBWVn
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.55Please respect copyright.PENANA4dzUPC6lKX
55Please respect copyright.PENANArzwfpTeP0v
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.55Please respect copyright.PENANABxqIhEhmeC
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANANqAJwWiozK
55Please respect copyright.PENANAfAqcJPorK2
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.55Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ5sgatxHX
55Please respect copyright.PENANAb8rdbrqyBi
"You don't remember us talking and-" 55Please respect copyright.PENANA4oPUdBqUlR
55Please respect copyright.PENANAYKf9AHXRWq
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"55Please respect copyright.PENANAEJaG4JLr2W
55Please respect copyright.PENANA4xeYLLO83F
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANARps6uXWwWy
55Please respect copyright.PENANASfxWCyAKLo
"Woah!"55Please respect copyright.PENANAU1m002atiX
55Please respect copyright.PENANAUXALqnYl53
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAj21XHHDy9j
55Please respect copyright.PENANAKQTnM7lOMW
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.55Please respect copyright.PENANAyhhvcZ4zQE
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAGhJTEfaHwR
55Please respect copyright.PENANAMKxhrhAq2W
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.55Please respect copyright.PENANAXKY1ChGVRN
55Please respect copyright.PENANAg5p6U55xFG
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAxCPeFtOAkZ
55Please respect copyright.PENANARi7Eci73cl
"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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANA6QtGRZgkWh
55Please respect copyright.PENANAwkqS0KQy1m
"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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAongTw55k1r
55Please respect copyright.PENANAsrTip8XmP6
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAS6dbsnCku8
55Please respect copyright.PENANAfHCEdDW5nz
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAHHSDh1ml42
55Please respect copyright.PENANA0G9p5uB8pq
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."55Please respect copyright.PENANAlwnAP2gY4O
55Please respect copyright.PENANAyN9vkmQrWd
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAJkR0IYmcKg
55Please respect copyright.PENANAFhSZPMNRE3
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAe1B6HpjJtd
55Please respect copyright.PENANAOVYgQGEf9K
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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAGfK84ONDgR
55Please respect copyright.PENANARMhZgv9oaO
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAoAI5VdzU2K
55Please respect copyright.PENANAH8PLlzTIOA
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAHMX7pEHLiN
55Please respect copyright.PENANANaG3DSyBxb
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAlOi0Jvtxt8
55Please respect copyright.PENANAvKT19BRTvS
"Good."55Please respect copyright.PENANAYp4b9vFu9q
55Please respect copyright.PENANADdKSDS1kft
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 55Please respect copyright.PENANAb0QXV8tMhx
55Please respect copyright.PENANAZsIXkY5mG3
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAfZzIOzVzew
55Please respect copyright.PENANAldwC3oNV6u
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAiwLlpicGqP
55Please respect copyright.PENANA4AIbtzvI8S
"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..."55Please respect copyright.PENANAk1jTCVkLBJ
55Please respect copyright.PENANAqkbmToHzQG
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."55Please respect copyright.PENANAhSS46N6JvI
55Please respect copyright.PENANA6ddwtv9yMd
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."55Please respect copyright.PENANAdduZuyP8zP
55Please respect copyright.PENANAN7FNQ8dI2R
"Okay. Y-yeah..."55Please respect copyright.PENANAebm8RZOnSc
55Please respect copyright.PENANA8agutIswIc
"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 55Please respect copyright.PENANAHsVVAohM5y
55Please respect copyright.PENANAULo8oqVgdx
And our pair leave, dimming the lights to the floor for the evening.55Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ngi14p5Xf

(Three and half years later)55Please respect copyright.PENANAxhe7Vy9T50
55Please respect copyright.PENANA7wxuGz2hAA
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANA6YRHC529qw
55Please respect copyright.PENANAvo5ybxQ6x4
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAjbN8eC3tsM
55Please respect copyright.PENANADUDVcTl2dZ
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.55Please respect copyright.PENANAlmf8pdFLVS
55Please respect copyright.PENANA9TX7x1oXEG
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAGMfQ1404kS
55Please respect copyright.PENANAmBVe8sbmw9
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.55Please respect copyright.PENANAssvQB0uOMy
55Please respect copyright.PENANASIgPSknbpz
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."55Please respect copyright.PENANA89SwObEvSI
55Please respect copyright.PENANAnSilaQbZhU
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANApkFXtgjkk0
55Please respect copyright.PENANAJnq0QXDrlp
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAQYjeuh9TY1
55Please respect copyright.PENANAVn09Jzg8w1
"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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAWJcGsNkSDq
55Please respect copyright.PENANA7jAC4h4nzM
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.55Please respect copyright.PENANAivHNgME0QT
55Please respect copyright.PENANA68eK57G6M4
"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."55Please respect copyright.PENANAjfhwvlHHnP
55Please respect copyright.PENANAuU3DMCSSTK
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.55Please respect copyright.PENANAxpvPnzjZw2
55Please respect copyright.PENANAVYN3qBjTed
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAsahe7MiVhU
55Please respect copyright.PENANAsSfL7sZ1my
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAaEs1tedSEF
55Please respect copyright.PENANAarEyxsATI8
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.55Please respect copyright.PENANAvNfw6O6Wl2
55Please respect copyright.PENANAnh3QcEfh84
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 55Please respect copyright.PENANAYdrjpHVDfV
55Please respect copyright.PENANA1slcspHCku
"Uh, fine I guess."55Please respect copyright.PENANAnJtIKEn4ke
55Please respect copyright.PENANAENxrAZUYpR
"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"55Please respect copyright.PENANA1x6bASmiSP
55Please respect copyright.PENANAzft0A6fEjz
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAgZd8PpScR2
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlR1soCyCRi
"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?"55Please respect copyright.PENANA9w1mCcNvod
55Please respect copyright.PENANAMLlMDOuwWC
"Yes, Sir."55Please respect copyright.PENANAYJQVNqc5CX
55Please respect copyright.PENANAZAv1a04YMG
"Your meds." 55Please respect copyright.PENANA1u6MRajA5C
55Please respect copyright.PENANAL8KL7kW8rR
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.55Please respect copyright.PENANA2CEQwAq3dQ
55Please respect copyright.PENANAmh8CQkbMNJ
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."55Please respect copyright.PENANA3foZgt7izQ
55Please respect copyright.PENANACB2IoPOz9a
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.55Please respect copyright.PENANARzkMiQs4Bq
55Please respect copyright.PENANAyBRc0tbBkH
"Better now that you all are here."55Please respect copyright.PENANA7wpvnzFVAg
55Please respect copyright.PENANAc7Ke81iO7P
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAfrWr2qdRC5
55Please respect copyright.PENANA53Ijkgwu1u
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAkX4FIufki0
55Please respect copyright.PENANA5yQ0tCqVvh
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.55Please respect copyright.PENANArljppcub3D
55Please respect copyright.PENANAVNOLC8Qt2N
"Do I have to take them?"55Please respect copyright.PENANAFDlvTWlXQO
55Please respect copyright.PENANAfSwyP7yGW3
"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?"55Please respect copyright.PENANA4elscfSMLn
55Please respect copyright.PENANArfqS0gtkm1
"Yeah."55Please respect copyright.PENANAaA8knionGi
55Please respect copyright.PENANAwEnnqFeoOK
"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."55Please respect copyright.PENANAgOviulRt5P
55Please respect copyright.PENANAOxndeSUiER
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"55Please respect copyright.PENANAdbODUvv4Vc
55Please respect copyright.PENANAtHXf03p1Hj
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAsqL6ogmecN
55Please respect copyright.PENANApzsPfE9ggr
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANA5aXe9Dt9Ns
55Please respect copyright.PENANAIG3j0wt7Sa
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANASzKGGxutmt
55Please respect copyright.PENANAa9JjYBMTbf
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAqz3CEB7y8S
55Please respect copyright.PENANAlUMb2Qp9p8
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAGshIk0MjSt
55Please respect copyright.PENANAonpi3tvUI2
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."55Please respect copyright.PENANAqNdCYnbYcC
55Please respect copyright.PENANAQdGyqjYU5b
"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.55Please respect copyright.PENANA52WxQdID4p
55Please respect copyright.PENANA4skQXn9pZP
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANANufQz6e2Hw
55Please respect copyright.PENANANziNmoHYtH
"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.55Please respect copyright.PENANArYxqO8zAGL
55Please respect copyright.PENANAvm2iIEHC4y
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAYR3MoQMVYK
55Please respect copyright.PENANAVHEEXevGBy
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."55Please respect copyright.PENANAbcULhzcVpC
55Please respect copyright.PENANAxyg2FkmUxH
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 55Please respect copyright.PENANA8f2CMhz2mb
55Please respect copyright.PENANA4T3kINkAPV
"Mikey, I don't want to hear it. Collect the damn dog." 55Please respect copyright.PENANAieq9yo6yiU
55Please respect copyright.PENANAP7L2sRhxbB
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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANAPME5FcbWTq
55Please respect copyright.PENANAGezxd4CJyR
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANA9I8BneLHtA

"But you love me."55Please respect copyright.PENANAwU8wr5O9pI

Slate liked her, and your relationship with Beth is built on nothing but power, your in a position of trust and have power you can manipulate and abuse, not to mention you are way older than her.
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.55Please respect copyright.PENANAu72pzXABHm

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. 55Please respect copyright.PENANA2JjE7H9HLp
