137Please respect copyright.PENANAotyxrSj3NA
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAsRKPk7kwwl
137Please respect copyright.PENANA8Eq7Nwv7mr
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.137Please respect copyright.PENANA3RdXMomAdB
137Please respect copyright.PENANAFLvSkl3TsC
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."137Please respect copyright.PENANAUbBVqiBEbL
137Please respect copyright.PENANASMfRgU5bNa
"I'm suprised his..."137Please respect copyright.PENANAjhqaIdRoNL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAdoME2Rv6OD
"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."137Please respect copyright.PENANAZmVub7kJ5W
137Please respect copyright.PENANA5YlI8Zy1ot
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAqG8VxsGNyI
137Please respect copyright.PENANAAvt31sbeSQ
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 137Please respect copyright.PENANADBsmnYPZja
137Please respect copyright.PENANAl3WrznqRer
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.137Please respect copyright.PENANAfAzC0jehUw
137Please respect copyright.PENANAaqdPjqmt0w
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAKZAmNLWNTH
137Please respect copyright.PENANA0sKhk9hqJg
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"137Please respect copyright.PENANAoUTEaHmnuB
137Please respect copyright.PENANAtZOrflhCeK
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.137Please respect copyright.PENANAXYFWEhsgeL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAdqa8ER8Wm3
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANApJt5D6Ulnu
137Please respect copyright.PENANAK6zzcerms0
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAwLFP2D0oFn
137Please respect copyright.PENANAISLvTdFIH5
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANACYQmNXdlEN
137Please respect copyright.PENANA5Wr9iwG2o1
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."137Please respect copyright.PENANA45wlUPmFMq
137Please respect copyright.PENANAlqjVZYrrAI
"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." 137Please respect copyright.PENANAxLJbi3dg0o
137Please respect copyright.PENANAspuz08XQku
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAH9xbINUIO5
137Please respect copyright.PENANAf8PghmsOcy
They barely interact socially."137Please respect copyright.PENANA7FEklo8d2x
137Please respect copyright.PENANAf29uQzZD14
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA4l4EpNx8Hr
137Please respect copyright.PENANAJV6zywTXv4
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.137Please respect copyright.PENANAfWxM28J2M1
137Please respect copyright.PENANAmLm1cH59rk
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.137Please respect copyright.PENANAfQAOPlZ7Ap
137Please respect copyright.PENANAwpg0AgOhja
"Uh..."137Please respect copyright.PENANAOxmodDuI8W
137Please respect copyright.PENANA2IHkFg7gcD
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"137Please respect copyright.PENANAej6z9CwFJ4
137Please respect copyright.PENANAkt6DuJ44ja
"Ester, I'm sorry-"137Please respect copyright.PENANALMzJAhNULU
137Please respect copyright.PENANAW3AliAql72
"Don't you Ester me!"137Please respect copyright.PENANAnxte2mr8bo
137Please respect copyright.PENANA5bt6BOITFQ
"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-" 137Please respect copyright.PENANA4iVstnZiBX
137Please respect copyright.PENANAtEA2laqRP2
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANACqt7qhZ159
137Please respect copyright.PENANAAPGIjnFHRx
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.137Please respect copyright.PENANAYGtWaJJq8o
137Please respect copyright.PENANAkK4W15bNGi
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.137Please respect copyright.PENANAXUwh1LPwj0
137Please respect copyright.PENANAYcElUjCtHW
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.137Please respect copyright.PENANAxAqxZ9jXp1
137Please respect copyright.PENANAQPw2NOSjG3
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.137Please respect copyright.PENANAr96bsUathi
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAshgkrtQ0V5
137Please respect copyright.PENANAqam7p52gdY
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.137Please respect copyright.PENANAweyatCyMel
137Please respect copyright.PENANATqZZ3HrZew
"You don't remember us talking and-" 137Please respect copyright.PENANAj3au0i3RNL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAZEvXZvw3XK
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"137Please respect copyright.PENANAcdnKfvrDWc
137Please respect copyright.PENANApbo4PrfF3G
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAPnz5gjgiUB
137Please respect copyright.PENANAesWM2zXEha
"Woah!"137Please respect copyright.PENANAjTx0lCaGtR
137Please respect copyright.PENANAbFWo4IAOeW
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAS6ljv1mQwa
137Please respect copyright.PENANA67CiESxX7Y
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.137Please respect copyright.PENANA5n8ozlQrBj
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAa6A9QzzRwZ
137Please respect copyright.PENANAcNr4fPuUUQ
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.137Please respect copyright.PENANAzEWnzWdRSP
137Please respect copyright.PENANAY01JXiW7z5
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAoKV5A5lecH
137Please respect copyright.PENANA5EA7vHv8Lw
"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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAGek0Kzbhuf
137Please respect copyright.PENANA1rFUEKLYGT
"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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAtY4D6o9KSy
137Please respect copyright.PENANAOnB80ZqL2U
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANArZxtGAcmym
137Please respect copyright.PENANAhQug3Cb1Ss
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAKcYG1YfMaH
137Please respect copyright.PENANAWoai19JfBq
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."137Please respect copyright.PENANAenB3z1cwgo
137Please respect copyright.PENANAOaZBseVbee
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAAAWLFhU6P4
137Please respect copyright.PENANANWtciBMIjt
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA8gPF4aoghf
137Please respect copyright.PENANABplP9K0ISv
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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANA1VQXy34Gwq
137Please respect copyright.PENANAblkYBnmodG
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA1B9MmjFHUs
137Please respect copyright.PENANAJruJfoeZZV
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 137Please respect copyright.PENANACYSAa1pzkl
137Please respect copyright.PENANAsqJAMv5Oaw
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAwRAQo70USR
137Please respect copyright.PENANAOUPgNcdFwf
"Good."137Please respect copyright.PENANANyeXCRK7wF
137Please respect copyright.PENANAHmHmjq67jA
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 137Please respect copyright.PENANAK8EFoAprqW
137Please respect copyright.PENANAanOLsWtnAp
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAKdPaw70uJY
137Please respect copyright.PENANASDOC9I8XBn
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAVFyebI3acD
137Please respect copyright.PENANAcXZ0s2rqpN
"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..."137Please respect copyright.PENANAB9FW2OVAOx
137Please respect copyright.PENANAy40OGSNIkU
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."137Please respect copyright.PENANA8Fdyk4NKmY
137Please respect copyright.PENANAGzfNEgm2LU
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."137Please respect copyright.PENANAF2hLXcEasa
137Please respect copyright.PENANA6UxQ14NNu9
"Okay. Y-yeah..."137Please respect copyright.PENANAY1FqIaHjHO
137Please respect copyright.PENANAaIs9yqKeUi
"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 137Please respect copyright.PENANAwtKDLZLX91
137Please respect copyright.PENANAvhQC5LosLj
And our pair leave, dimming the lights to the floor for the evening.137Please respect copyright.PENANAcUu0IAh3Ws

(Three and half years later)137Please respect copyright.PENANApbVe8NZopx
137Please respect copyright.PENANAluPiO7B2JF
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAJkkqBHqLTz
137Please respect copyright.PENANAqWNH3pO6jM
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAA2PEm7EDx6
137Please respect copyright.PENANAH9czyLOwey
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.137Please respect copyright.PENANAvuQEdnSAd1
137Please respect copyright.PENANAhOoop6xsVu
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA7ygauZ7EAb
137Please respect copyright.PENANAvvOY2JqPKw
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.137Please respect copyright.PENANA5bfRoYfa4M
137Please respect copyright.PENANAQ2JGp5FF67
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."137Please respect copyright.PENANAklL4aWOoqa
137Please respect copyright.PENANAWqb17KrNGc
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA8cUevuVx5v
137Please respect copyright.PENANA45JU15EXA3
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAG5IYvdm9Hu
137Please respect copyright.PENANAFCDUu1TBDs
"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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAXvfdBcVhO0
137Please respect copyright.PENANAQK1R5XF7BP
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.137Please respect copyright.PENANAYFJRmqUjVL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAv3R0QH1NnB
"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."137Please respect copyright.PENANAyEFqXO6iS2
137Please respect copyright.PENANAyFN4KOkJw2
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.137Please respect copyright.PENANA93cq9EiBxz
137Please respect copyright.PENANAukzSPsM1vT
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAwKAQuYhVG9
137Please respect copyright.PENANA6UTfWA65JA
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAKgdfiHUrxi
137Please respect copyright.PENANAZu2AWoLjOG
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.137Please respect copyright.PENANAuMOqrDuhhh
137Please respect copyright.PENANAkdY0je5ZML
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 137Please respect copyright.PENANA8FWKxdGDiv
137Please respect copyright.PENANAfYet3AVPCC
"Uh, fine I guess."137Please respect copyright.PENANAleAcex8JkO
137Please respect copyright.PENANA5bXS3d19eD
"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAaMaGcHJT1i
137Please respect copyright.PENANAm76iWIRQda
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAHiGHqCNuoX
137Please respect copyright.PENANArzCy56IhXl
"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?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAbx5m4zkZof
137Please respect copyright.PENANAFFMH4d54HY
"Yes, Sir."137Please respect copyright.PENANAYm3OQ5k43W
137Please respect copyright.PENANAj1RkTs8an0
"Your meds." 137Please respect copyright.PENANAgvi8WT5aYR
137Please respect copyright.PENANAPFUB3fjDEx
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.137Please respect copyright.PENANA1yTP5hjuYL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAd6ktKDwLGm
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."137Please respect copyright.PENANAs7T61vgp1c
137Please respect copyright.PENANA9jrhLTtk6v
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.137Please respect copyright.PENANA7O9hKOxqyf
137Please respect copyright.PENANAMVtSuXwoeH
"Better now that you all are here."137Please respect copyright.PENANABoMALvFY7b
137Please respect copyright.PENANAfzl7HwSgtf
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANArsa0Hq2zUD
137Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7BawdSWzU
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANArfAZlcY0b1
137Please respect copyright.PENANAa4nZmrok00
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.137Please respect copyright.PENANAWWcTkEEqmh
137Please respect copyright.PENANA2ayg35ZVO0
"Do I have to take them?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAqUIjKuqozL
137Please respect copyright.PENANA0nrlw9irqm
"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?"137Please respect copyright.PENANAJJ8p6j6ZtL
137Please respect copyright.PENANAo7tzCRFrfL
"Yeah."137Please respect copyright.PENANAI9y13raggy
137Please respect copyright.PENANAv5P0gEdpR2
"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."137Please respect copyright.PENANAUGecpgZ67C
137Please respect copyright.PENANAHaUrCw2GXQ
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"137Please respect copyright.PENANA6VLdqIU8BK
137Please respect copyright.PENANAGFaXOfzDGa
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAWTH7jqarW3
137Please respect copyright.PENANA3fGf3Fc3NK
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAZZc3BIfwHo
137Please respect copyright.PENANAIMl6wd35Ml
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAlSJxEmswuz
137Please respect copyright.PENANAezOrgyi3zC
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAa1Drqx8ymV
137Please respect copyright.PENANAu4H8lYwSy5
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAHHUpFkMqvH
137Please respect copyright.PENANAGEJDm1VY4j
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."137Please respect copyright.PENANAUumj7eOLEX
137Please respect copyright.PENANAzLJDxDD0Ml
"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.137Please respect copyright.PENANAP2dkImZ0Ti
137Please respect copyright.PENANAQpwgox6oZu
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAtjYJrI45oc
137Please respect copyright.PENANAxnEEQNmmQB
"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.137Please respect copyright.PENANABzRu6BqaKE
137Please respect copyright.PENANALuCZj2UF0t
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANA5L3r4rNeRH
137Please respect copyright.PENANApYJQK1hBuE
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."137Please respect copyright.PENANAjNRJqQMIjo
137Please respect copyright.PENANA0fwPcvQyTc
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 137Please respect copyright.PENANAINC7FCUSQ4
137Please respect copyright.PENANAhtpFhIR1st

137Please respect copyright.PENANARcdK2yKjIb
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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANAYEth2gRqEn
137Please respect copyright.PENANA1tmIlGORXw
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.137Please respect copyright.PENANAtfNpmViwiN

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. 137Please respect copyright.PENANASIdncBUKU1
