A New Plan

You don't even consider Josh's offer for a split second. No way are you making Maisie go through a moment of the indignity her four close relatives are about to be put through. And you are going to make damn sure you get them out of this mess as well. But you know you can't right now. Yelling at Josh, or releasing Maisie and setting her on him, is only going to make things worse. You need to get out of there and come up with a better plan than the last one.

"Maisie, follow me quietly and don't say anything until we are in the car"

The Elsa Jean lookalike scowls at you but, of course, does exactly as she is told.

"Yeah, that's right, take your bitch and get the fuck out of here, cuck!" Josh taunts you. You swear to yourself you will make sure he gets his comeuppance at some point before too long. But for now, if you piss him off, it will be Holly who suffers.

"This is a fucking disaster" Maisie tells you as she gets into the car "We can't just drive away and leave my sister and cousins there with those fuckers"

"We don't have any choice, Maisie. We can't brute **** this. We need to come up with a plan together to take down Josh, something using your curse" you tell her "Once he is dealt with, the other three will fall like dominoes. They are just doing whatever he tells them, for some fucking reason"

"Then let's come up with a plan that doesn't totally fucking suck this time" Maisie suggests "I am so sick of having to look like a fucking porn star"

"I can fix that for you" you say without thinking, **** to try and do something right "Maisie, turn back to normal"

Suddenly a naked Maisie is squealing and scrambling to cover herself in the passenger seat right next to you.

"What are you doing, you perv!" she shouts out accusingly.

"Oh God, I wasn't thinking straight. Shit! Maisie have some clothes on"

"You can't make clothes appear magically on me" she says as she looks at you like a moron, as if, having just witnessed a frog turn into Maisie's hot, naked sister, summoning up clothes would obviously be a step too far.

"Fuck it, you've seen it all now, just drive me to yours. I can't get out of the car in my street and show up at my folks house like this. Just try not to command me unless you have run it past me first, because it has been one fuck up after another with you ever since I told you about my curse"

You start to think maybe Josh had got it right. You could be fucking Maisie right now while having her tell you how incredible you are, instead of being shouted at by her while she covers her body from you and looks at you as if you are some kind of sexual deviant. But no, that isn't you. Although you don't bother to tell her your ideas to either make her invisible or change everyone's, including your own, perception to make her appear clothed. You are currently driving a naked Maisie back to your apartment. You have to take the wins where you can find them.

But in the meantime, you can't help but wonder what Josh is getting up to with Holly and the cousins.
