I storm to the restrooms. And I catch myself at the door. I glance up, which one will I use? Which room will I walk into?
Men's room? Where I wish I was allowed.
Women's room? Where I always end up going. 
I glance side to side, as long as I don't get caught... It can't hurt right? I'm not looking for quick sex, I just wanna splash some water on my face and leave. 
So I sneak into the restroom marked Men's. 
Once inside- I lock the door, and check all the stalls. Empty, alone, isolated. Good. All good words. 
I look into the grease smeared mirror, and see through words written in sharpie- a face I know all too well. And yet- the person who stares back, seems so distant and broken. Like he (she) has no reason to live anymore.
And maybe he (she) doesn't. 
Maybe he (she) never did.
Maybe I'm glad I never did.  
I unlock the door, and slide out.

"What if I'm not one?" I asked, my body wound tight with tension. "One what?" he asked, his voice soft and low. I hesitated. Was I ready? I wanted to tell him so badly. Wanted to scream it from the fucking rooftops. But there would be no going back if I allowed the words to spill out into the world. Telling myself I didn't need someone else's validation, that I knew myself well enough to know with absolute certainty that I was trans was all good and well in principle. But lying here underneath my bed, with my best friend's body pressed so close to mine I could feel his warm breath on my face, I felt those convictions slip through my fingers. Danny's rejection would break me. In a fundamental way. "One what?" he repeated the question, scooting so close to me the tip of his nose brushed mine. Dust motes danced around us, suspended in mid air, teetering on the brink of this momentous feeling wrapping itself around us. I squeezed my eyes shut, pushing down the rush of anxiety trying to drown me. His nose bumped mine again and his breath ghosted over my lips. I opened my eyes and stared unblinkingly into his. 'A girl', I wanted to say, even though I knew the words would taste sour in my mouth, 'what if I'm not a girl?' -------------------------------------- Sean and Danny have been next door neighbours and best friends since they were six years old.

Samuel's Wife! by k_mogale22

"Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom." I stood up and with that I went. "What the hell is Sam doing here?" I asked myself. I got to the bathroom and put on my lipstick and fixed my hair then a drunk man entered the bathroom while smoking. I got chills as he gave me the discomforting look of lust. "Am I in a gender neutral bathroom?", I asked myself. I continued browsing myself in the mirror and tried not to give him much of attention. Next thing, I felt him grab my behind roughly and I quickly turned and got his hand off me. "Oh feisty!" he licked his lips and spanked me. "Get your dirty hands off of me, you street rat!" He slapped me then held my waist violently and aggressively so I could not get out of the hold. He pinned me against the wall and rubbed my inner thighs while I tried to break free but he then pushed me harder onto the wall. "You like it rough, don't you, Beauty?" he asked as he licked my neck to my ear. I could smell him and it was awful. He was under the influence but stronger than I thought. He slipped his fingers under me roughly and I cried and yelled for help but he strangled me and my voice was not audible, it was throbbing and hurting in every manner. I tried to push him off me but that was the more I got bruised, he then burnt me with his cigarette on my neck. He was overpowering me and all I could do was cry. "Get off me, I don't want this. Please!" I cried out but he kept laughing and licking my neck while his fingers penetrated me into tears. ***Continually Edited***

"Why do you keep doing stuff like that?" I asked in a whisper. I walk over to him and grab his arm to stop him from painting. His body stiffened under my touch, and I couldn't help but smile at his reaction. "What do you want from me, Tate?" I asked arms made its way around his waist. I could feel my stomach jump to my throat. I laid my head on his back, rubbing my face against him. Engulfing myself in his scent. My heart began to pound uncontrollably but I quickly regain control before I continued. "Earlier today you said you'd never see me more than a friend." His breathing was uneven. Like he was nervous. "But the way you look at me, the way you talk to me? They say something completely different." He became even more ridged under my touch. I could help but giggled at his demeanor. The usual cool, collected Tate was now at my mercy. "Do you want me as a friend-" I said in a whisper. I began to become more bold and allowed my hands to travel. They landed over his chest and I could feel his heart thumping und my hand. While the other hand glided over is abs. "-or do you want me?" I asked. He removed my hands off of him and turned so that he was facing me. The look in his eyes rocked me to my core. There was a hunger in them. And it terrified me, but in a good way. In a way I wanted to explore. A smile soon crossed his lips. He was so close that I could feel his breath. "Your treading on dangerous waters, Little owl." He said in a low tone that made my body shiver. I ignored the pounding in my head and lungs and began to move a little closer so that our bodies were flushed against each other. His arms wrapped around me quickly holding me against him. "I like danger." I said in a whisper. "I know what I want." I said I'm a drunken daze. "And what is that?" He said in a chuckle. "You." Read up on the love story of Tate and Meloni. Will this cool and calculated playboy be able to resist the charms of the innocent yet strong girl with a deadly secret?

"The fuck you are leaving me." He snapped and growled at his mate. She was calm as she was ever be regardless of his snapping. She sighed and turned around to leave without saying something to him because it was worthless. There was no point in talking and especially to him. He grabbed her arm before she put one step. "Where do you think you are going Ara?" He growled so loudly as everyone shuddered watching their interaction. She quickly remove his hand as anger rolling off of her in waves. "Don't. Touch. Me. So you think I will live here and watch you mate and breed that female." She snapped at him. "She meant nothing Ara." He said after a minute. She laughed, literally laughed but without any humor. "That's why you were fucking her in your office just a minutes before, don't you?" "It was a mistake." He tried to reason with her. "But in your case mistakes happened in more than one time. And they said mistakes happened only one time." She said sarcastically. "I don't need her. I need you." He said again desperately. "Lies. All lies coming from your mouth. I feel disgusted just by looking at you, let alone talking to you. And you said you need me? Ha. Very funny. You don't need me and I sure as hell don't need you. This female behind your back is more enough than me. Breed her, mark her or fuck her. I DON'T FUCKING CARE." "I am sorry. I am really fucking sorry." He said brokenly as kneeling on the ground. A small laugh escaped from her lips. "Isn't it too late for that mate?" And she left just like that while single tear rolled down her cheeks. He had made mistakes. Mistakes that will cost him everything. He knew he had lost her and this time completely. She was broken. Again. He did break her, repair her just to break her again leaving a broken shattered woman but strong willed. ---------------------------------------------------- The cruel, sadistic Rogue Alpha and his caring, lovable Witch mate.
