Andrea Recruits Simone

As Simone leaves Gary's room, smoothing her dress with her hands she's humming to herself absolutely buzzing with excitement. She's snapped out of this blissful daze when Andrea's voice calls out, "So did you enjoy fucking my boyfriend?"

Simone jumps, turning and seeing Andrea sitting at a coffee table off to the side, sipping a glass of wine. "It's not-he-he's- I didn't." Simone starts babbling, guilt and fear suddenly spoiling her euphoric mood.

"I didn't mean it like that. I told Gary to fuck around." Andrea chuckles. "I was genuinely curious with whatever mystical power the psychopaths running this show hold over us." She gestures towards a plush chair across the table from her. "I have another glass here if you want some wine."

"Um, sure." Simone squeaks, still uncertain around the older woman. She takes her seat and pours the second glass full of red wine, taking a sip of it. It's bitter but a little sweet, she assumes it's some fancy vintage but she can't tell.

"So," Andrea presses, "did you enjoy sex with Gary?"

Blushing Simone nods. "He was...amazing." She sighs.

"He really is, isn't he." Andrea smirks. "Do you want to stay here then?"

Simone takes a long sip of her wine, thinking. "I didn't when I first got here." She says, "And it's still kind of scary, with the changes and stuff, but I think I do."

"Why?" Andrea questions, raising an eyebrow.

"Well out THERE I always had to hide how I felt about other girls. Even if I started dating...I could never tell my family." She confides. "But here, even before they made me like men too, when I told Gary and he didn't mind it felt like a weight was being lifted."

Andrea nods, "I guess I can understand that." Then setting her glass down she leans closer to the other girl and says, "Well if you want to stay here, then you need to start playing into their game."

Simone nods and says, "You're right. What do you have in mind?"

"We need to talk about Cynthia..." Andrea responds simply.
