The Lesbian Handbook

Rule #8

Rule #8- Don't let yourself get blackmailed.

I sat in shock reading the text over and over again, "does Lenny know what you've been doing? Let me rephrase that, who you've been doing" from a blocked number with a picture attached of me and Billie kissing in the supply closet. I screenshot the picture and sent it to Billie which caused her to be in my room in 2 minutes. "Who the hell do you think it is?" She asked, "I have no idea Billie but this is your fault" I said in defense, "my fault? You kissed me first" she yelled. "You kissed me in the closet so this is on you" I whisper yelled. "Just ask them what they want" she mumbled taking a seat on my bed, "you know when I imagined you in my bed I didn't imagine it like this, there was a lot less clothes involved" I mumbled which caused her to laugh and push me off the bed, I picked up my phone and dialed the number, it rang a few times before someone picked up. It was a deep recording which was clearly a fake voice. "You have 3 days to tell your friends before everyone knows" is all it said before it hung up. "What the fuck we can't tell them" Billie yelled, "Don't you think I know that?" I asked her panicking. "Let's just deny it, you can't see our face but until then let's just not talk to each other or anything" Billie said and I agreed. We sat in silence together, I suppose to take everything in but it was definitely harder then it seemed because I could lose all my friends and Billie could lose her boyfriend. "I should go" she mumbled and I nodded, "I'm sorry I involved you in something like this" I whispered as she walked away, she stopped in her tracks and turned to face me. She walked back to me and straddled me, I looked at her confused and she connected our lips softly. "One last time won't hurt" she mumbled and I nodded and flipped us over and got on top of her.
But it did hurt, a lot, especially after the lust went away and we were laying naked next to each other. "I was supposed to wait for marriage with him" she whispered and her voice cracked, she got up and quickly started to get dressed. "Bil wait, we can't deny what we felt" I said as she put on her shirt. "I didn't feel anything Divine, you didn't feel anything okay? Just leave me alone" she said before leaving my room. I stood there in shock and slightly hurt but more shock because she was making it seem like it was my fault. Don't allow yourself to get blackmailed because it leads to horrible feelings and actions.
