"If a person with multiple personality disorder threatens suicide would that be considered as a hostage situation?" I ask. She laughs at me
"No, I dunno. Don't think so." She says, smiling "Have you lost your virginity?" No, please, don't, I won't tell anyone just please, stop, STOP
I look straight into her eyes and nearly cry "I don't want to play anymore." I say, looking down.
"What? Why not?"
I hesitate before sliding onto the next step.
"How about you?"
"No.... I'm saving myself, I guess. I was gonna save myself for marriage but it doesn't look like I'm legally able to get married."
"What, cause you're underage?"
"Um, no..... I uh..... Jared was born Jennifer, and Jennifer was my first girlfriend. Towards the end of our relationship, she made the transition. I guess I was only attracted to him because he was a her. I'm a lesbian."
Fair enough
"Do you have a diary?" She asked
"Yeah, ever since I was 7. I've bought this book every year that has 365 pages. It's A4, and really pretty. It's got these little flourishes in the corner and I don't know it's just really pretty."

"Fuck..." I mutter
"What was that?" She asks
"Nothing," I say, getting off the step "I'm bored, let's just say you won."
"That means you're my slave this weekend." She smirks
"Yeah, I guess so."
"That means you're coming home with me on Friday."
"Um... Yeah, I guess so."
