136Please respect copyright.PENANAfQN6ps8MSs
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAfLqVL3xTZV
136Please respect copyright.PENANA3WIAFcjp3J
The sun is setting for the day, his friends are returning for the day. "So... how'd it go... with..." Mikey keeps stuttering.136Please respect copyright.PENANAl17S4OaCHN
136Please respect copyright.PENANAZNBZ12ZHog
"It went fine with Cloud. He helped me out."136Please respect copyright.PENANAokPEcqUOTQ
136Please respect copyright.PENANALUhuXMDgD4
"I'm suprised his..."136Please respect copyright.PENANAJh3lU75lE8
136Please respect copyright.PENANAATerzGQxrb
"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."136Please respect copyright.PENANAep6trDCWaU
136Please respect copyright.PENANAdPL1MCoWGb
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAbgsVzu9cDy
136Please respect copyright.PENANAKvGbXgabp8
"Yeah, his not getting a chance of sunlight till I'm confident his fully moldable." Solayo responds. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAzrquOvVKZH
136Please respect copyright.PENANA1qEnQdcOzn
"And... how long are we going to keep the rest down there?" Mikey whispers.136Please respect copyright.PENANAiq0U7KLFYs
136Please respect copyright.PENANAQEOgrrpUm3
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1IV9myIM8
136Please respect copyright.PENANA3fU69r88k1
He opens his eyes, realizing his food is back. Mikey eyes Grayson boxers on the floor. "Uh, his fooling around-"136Please respect copyright.PENANAJHGgOiT5Jd
136Please respect copyright.PENANABNqPsow8Z5
"I don't advise you-" Ester adds on, cutting Mikey off, but Solayo cuts her off.136Please respect copyright.PENANAredEjtlfhF
136Please respect copyright.PENANAHIG7t04Fp1
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAapYu1E5EMx
136Please respect copyright.PENANA2WXpCr3wA4
What if she freaks out on you and realizes what she's doing?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAjGZk4zCrf8
136Please respect copyright.PENANA4nU3ADQ81X
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA063QE7Od2j
136Please respect copyright.PENANAvpaCHj25WX
And I like her, she's really pretty and I'm better for her anyway."136Please respect copyright.PENANASqocf2G55y
136Please respect copyright.PENANADFN6OmLrZ7
"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." 136Please respect copyright.PENANAPsILOz0pyU
136Please respect copyright.PENANABmXHxMtUGM
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAuWJGbVGe0U
136Please respect copyright.PENANAVvO8lDDpd7
They barely interact socially."136Please respect copyright.PENANAUo6Pppc2M5
136Please respect copyright.PENANAx6SXWqAoja
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAJq1VJNnufX
136Please respect copyright.PENANAovzyQgSEI8
Unlike him, she is clothed kind of. Nothing is showing, but it's just undergarments on. She sits up, tired and confused.136Please respect copyright.PENANAzDDzNjdiuN
136Please respect copyright.PENANAljTKGBIxyg
"And while we're on the topic of sex, tell me you use a goddamn condomn." Ester adds on.136Please respect copyright.PENANAHZaSEtCJNM
136Please respect copyright.PENANABLDQCg9BZY
"Uh..."136Please respect copyright.PENANASBCmRNbP3Q
136Please respect copyright.PENANA54fbE8OMFU
"You fucking idiot, Gray!"136Please respect copyright.PENANAR5rDMz5qJ7
136Please respect copyright.PENANAqTAGMkpYmg
"Ester, I'm sorry-"136Please respect copyright.PENANAyIh7CAJWtQ
136Please respect copyright.PENANAAAEKlu3tRt
"Don't you Ester me!"136Please respect copyright.PENANArfRTLxgLzm
136Please respect copyright.PENANALtgsX9A5dC
"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-" 136Please respect copyright.PENANAWLKVnRcd9x
136Please respect copyright.PENANA8xHPSe9aLC
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAW7UU3hob2N
136Please respect copyright.PENANA1fq6XHAvAh
"Beth-" Gray begins, his pants now on and he drops the bed sheet.136Please respect copyright.PENANA0Jeri5BLhl
136Please respect copyright.PENANArXEXK9DQcg
"You sick fuck! What did you do?! How did I get here!" She screams, focusing on Grayson not noticing Solayo prepping a needle.136Please respect copyright.PENANAozTgTQwOe0
136Please respect copyright.PENANATj3wujdBcS
"And that's what we we're worried about, ya pervert." Mikey chastisies him.136Please respect copyright.PENANAHyhIBbVCoB
136Please respect copyright.PENANAykSTHbtzIw
"She's 19!" Grayson shouts back.136Please respect copyright.PENANAFj1kvWVADF
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAm4A8CuERjd
136Please respect copyright.PENANANdw1iEdXsO
"What did you do! What did we do!" Beth yells again at Grayson threatening him with the knife.136Please respect copyright.PENANAtVXGURwaGv
136Please respect copyright.PENANAd0lgdrJfQt
"You don't remember us talking and-" 136Please respect copyright.PENANAs78ZqtvNtz
136Please respect copyright.PENANADLGj6BoSs4
But she doesn't let him finish. "Shut up! I don't wanna hear it! You're sick. You fucking sicko!"136Please respect copyright.PENANAZC2ew7j5CF
136Please respect copyright.PENANAA5ZNxSBi2P
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAt4zthcEh1y
136Please respect copyright.PENANAW15TGW1O76
"Woah!"136Please respect copyright.PENANAj8zkYV4Bca
136Please respect copyright.PENANASijPVgMgcx
"Solayo!" Ester calls out. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAt0UsUqmwA1
136Please respect copyright.PENANAgtjp183mrJ
"Handle it!" He calls back. It takes a bit, but Mikey manages to calm her down enough that she hands over the knife.136Please respect copyright.PENANACeQ2VBTDxY
"There we go. Beth, can you let Ester here help you dress?"136Please respect copyright.PENANArti6Udtb0P
136Please respect copyright.PENANApf5URSqRYS
She nods softly and Ester helps her, Mikey putting the knife away and forcing Grayson to walk and talk with him.136Please respect copyright.PENANAeG9HkTpbkn
136Please respect copyright.PENANA4z5ily95Sp
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANARa6sT3A2Yq
136Please respect copyright.PENANACwKmJa7U8J
"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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANA5P1i7hWeQ5
136Please respect copyright.PENANA5ywiu9UrXw
"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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAc2WA1EnCPG
136Please respect copyright.PENANAs1Lg482ZRx
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAOaJSBsWakb
136Please respect copyright.PENANAJUk2nqjJ3d
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAtyILpmdqJf
136Please respect copyright.PENANAat1mNDNpS6
"How we feeling, darling?"
"T-tired."136Please respect copyright.PENANAYO4zdYs0EZ
136Please respect copyright.PENANABDxkeWEXDn
"Yeah. Can we take you back to your room now? Are you calm enough?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAQl6yjpAy2x
136Please respect copyright.PENANA4sdKR7ACTQ
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAXLwab9ke7A
136Please respect copyright.PENANANl3pop856q
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAKTHSfHEK40
136Please respect copyright.PENANAOC34q6qC2k
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAwPosJVP8oW
136Please respect copyright.PENANA0qoHaXqTui
"Evening, Solayo." Slate whispers softly looking tired and drugged out. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAnaMOqMbuiX
136Please respect copyright.PENANAjLgONTEFaB
"Evening, Slate. You ready for bed? How was dinner?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAT5jrORs9dg
136Please respect copyright.PENANAa3hBp6oZXt
"Good."136Please respect copyright.PENANA9DAvVFbhfb
136Please respect copyright.PENANA1o0WMs6Adw
"Good. You know the drill, boy." 136Please respect copyright.PENANAyrPOi8Hn5C
136Please respect copyright.PENANAWlblZMj7iH
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAaO0qaUezr6
136Please respect copyright.PENANAE16UtUOVbk
He then heads to Beth's, Beth already in bed and tucked in by Solayo. "Restraints?" He asks. 136Please respect copyright.PENANATOM18pRc8a
136Please respect copyright.PENANArdwPTbpu0S
"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..."136Please respect copyright.PENANA2Xzk1ZU3a3
136Please respect copyright.PENANAXpmtT9DThq
"She'll have a mild hangover tomorrow..."136Please respect copyright.PENANAMfA06zN5rF
136Please respect copyright.PENANAAsKSy029G6
"Yeah, that's goanna be hell for her. Bring her to me later, I'll give her an IV and the morning after."136Please respect copyright.PENANAi2xC3ieUGV
136Please respect copyright.PENANAVfw8mRwDwV
"Okay. Y-yeah..."136Please respect copyright.PENANAuSP2goAnKu
136Please respect copyright.PENANA0pznKyBBnU
"Let's go back upstairs now, finish our dinner." 136Please respect copyright.PENANAyplpsvwKV9
136Please respect copyright.PENANAoewtwvd4bT
And our pair leave, dimming the lights to the floor for the evening.136Please respect copyright.PENANAWrA1JRxSPW

(Three and half years later)136Please respect copyright.PENANARI0exYWvKK
136Please respect copyright.PENANAxHsc5NMK5i
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAl5dfZVmUx2
136Please respect copyright.PENANAP9BKBYj841
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAeoMBphkxXS
136Please respect copyright.PENANA5TjP7O4Vll
Slate sits beside them both numbly looking at his lap, occasionally giving the spin of a yoyo that is in his hand.136Please respect copyright.PENANA1B6PZHiAJ2
136Please respect copyright.PENANA8EfiI7aqsv
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAljJvuC1NAP
136Please respect copyright.PENANAyfhl81fBWY
"So, uh, group. Ester, uh, asked me to debrief you today. The uh, leaders only just informed yesterday of the news.136Please respect copyright.PENANAu0mkj5I55Z
136Please respect copyright.PENANAHnYSOVO5sh
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."136Please respect copyright.PENANAl14uyCoMmm
136Please respect copyright.PENANA9RvuKnoQ7J
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAKgNtJbcOa2
136Please respect copyright.PENANABiLMSgljQV
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA29XFZnqNPO
136Please respect copyright.PENANAfVpEoJsLAl
"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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAUeBtCdi0us
136Please respect copyright.PENANAZ25dqAHjJB
"Cloud." Says Solayo, followed by the others. "Morning, Solayo. I debriefed everyone like you asked." Cloud tells him.136Please respect copyright.PENANAqKo9xjFQ6w
136Please respect copyright.PENANARBhnnwXqVn
"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."136Please respect copyright.PENANAwxQHayGtJ4
136Please respect copyright.PENANADzIuttGQfu
"Yes, Sir." Everyone responds. "Good, good." He adds on, handing out breakfast to everyone, making them stand in a line.136Please respect copyright.PENANArKX8WRomMq
136Please respect copyright.PENANAS3TqRB1p63
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAPSj8ht7dMD
136Please respect copyright.PENANAiWh3woeLFd
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA4JCUeEzsYJ
136Please respect copyright.PENANAvG9YvoUKmB
She opens her mouth afterwards showing him it's clear. "Good girl." He smiles, tapping her knee and stands.136Please respect copyright.PENANAfZK6ql385g
136Please respect copyright.PENANAKUBqZS259Q
Solayo procees to Gideon next. "How we feeling this morning, Gid?" 136Please respect copyright.PENANA65GTUHyqu8
136Please respect copyright.PENANAdcOHJ1pXO9
"Uh, fine I guess."136Please respect copyright.PENANAqKAzNe4h4S
136Please respect copyright.PENANA1etxUMhreo
"Yeah? So, what we goanna do when we get to leave?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAqyYMys53aB
136Please respect copyright.PENANALOQqad7CiG
"I don't know. Mikey said there would be a job?"136Please respect copyright.PENANASfWs8rW9B7
136Please respect copyright.PENANAAxLdprYC0W
"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?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAPY163unF0B
136Please respect copyright.PENANABFjeUBiqBp
"Yes, Sir."136Please respect copyright.PENANAfcZA5KOZIN
136Please respect copyright.PENANAcxGqLXo1od
"Your meds." 136Please respect copyright.PENANAr5JDEADMAg
136Please respect copyright.PENANAo2lHCerxFU
And Gideon swallows them down. "Thank you." Solayo says, moving on. Lyla, Slate followed by Cloud and then Beth.136Please respect copyright.PENANASKDay9QC97
136Please respect copyright.PENANAcMbnATkLly
She perks up a little when she sees Grayson. "Morning, Grayson."136Please respect copyright.PENANAWrQKTXaIyR
136Please respect copyright.PENANAA6Lq1Zieyp
"Morning, Beth." Grayson responds. "So, Bethany. Hi, how are we feeling?" Solayo questions.136Please respect copyright.PENANAZL7iZK1Z0B
136Please respect copyright.PENANAnE3jvtsu9S
"Better now that you all are here."136Please respect copyright.PENANAfkH2SpJQPs
136Please respect copyright.PENANA8q3GtGmzwE
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA3APZ7DSYdi
136Please respect copyright.PENANAVVKiAmcN3N
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAlmjnWglUkD
136Please respect copyright.PENANAs6XMdRmT2M
"Your meds." Solayo smiles holding her cup out to her which contains the most out of everybody else.136Please respect copyright.PENANADtSpyeGvz2
136Please respect copyright.PENANA0qErITs7Kk
"Do I have to take them?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAjPnzO7pWOD
136Please respect copyright.PENANAjHS51x7keE
"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?"136Please respect copyright.PENANAaR4XBAdbO1
136Please respect copyright.PENANALffspVg3GQ
"Yeah."136Please respect copyright.PENANA3y0MKCOszf
136Please respect copyright.PENANAieR9L69QvT
"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."136Please respect copyright.PENANAcMBkELJxta
136Please respect copyright.PENANAdcloJtaT2C
"I don't remember what you speak of feels like though, it's-"136Please respect copyright.PENANAomcylU6t8X
136Please respect copyright.PENANAVFdLNSvY5s
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANARcEN7WvZ9Q
136Please respect copyright.PENANAc2NqCFzEj1
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAP5ohvwcvlJ
136Please respect copyright.PENANAY4XQMaGN4g
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAs9NaIK02I9
136Please respect copyright.PENANADvL6jueAnT
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAH6rwwmEnED
136Please respect copyright.PENANAijuFjtj0Lr
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA7JBwiCkah3
136Please respect copyright.PENANAOzpXTaTkQt
We'll meet with you all tomorrow and assign you your jobs."136Please respect copyright.PENANAz08d5Q7yJH
136Please respect copyright.PENANAYb89PUhHF6
"We get to sleep in a bit?" Slate says excitedly. "Yes, you all do." Solayo responds, smiling and he gently ruffles Slate's hair.136Please respect copyright.PENANAWlVwb9zvo4
136Please respect copyright.PENANAdFdXcaxmrg
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAKw0PaYLQ1f
136Please respect copyright.PENANAyeIGHEFHBu
"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.136Please respect copyright.PENANA18V9VAyIOP
136Please respect copyright.PENANALtqmYUtLv0
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAjaghYhKCO6
136Please respect copyright.PENANAzWU5nsQKdh
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."136Please respect copyright.PENANAgAN92RFXpv
136Please respect copyright.PENANA3nJYmMROdp
"Solayo, the dog is pretty old by this point. It-" 136Please respect copyright.PENANApjQ9BuCTDq
136Please respect copyright.PENANAcuWzQcokEa
"Mikey, I don't want to hear it. Collect the damn dog." 136Please respect copyright.PENANArp2uT9dcES
136Please respect copyright.PENANAnh9A9xk5Bs
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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANANQoNTeMHfj
136Please respect copyright.PENANA7cLUzhnfqb
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.136Please respect copyright.PENANAxeHtBwh7jT

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. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAi5wZHI1bQN
