Conversation with Brian then breakfast.

When Brian comes downstairs, tying his tie, you're waiting for him in the living room.

"Sit down for a minute, we need to talk before we go any further," you say, gesturing him to a seat. He shrugs and takes a chair, looking at your curiously.

"We're going to keep our mouths shut and see what else we can find out," you say. "Quietly. These are the daughters of rich and powerful people, and if this society or whatever it is we saw last night has been around for years, it's a good bet that some of their mothers were part of it too. They'd destroy us it keep it covered up. Hell they'd do that just to protect their slutty daughters. Right now all we have is some weird ceremony and a bunch of girls munching carpet."

"So how are we going to find anything out?"

"That place had to be built, and it wasn't build by schoolgirls. I'm going to do some research, see what I can find about the construction of this place. It wasn't built when the school was founded either. The walls were concrete, and way above the construction techniques of the 1800s. There's got to be information about it somewhere. I looked up some books in the library, but there wasn't much there. One book that seemed like it might have information was missing. And missing from other libraries, according to that mousy librarian. I'm going to look a little harder."

"We could search the place. See what's down there." Brian says with a nod.

"We could. But we can't be seen going in or that will blow the deal. It would have to be at night. And when we're sure no one else is there. And we should keep our ears open. If I'm right and the red robes and the lizard costume are teachers, maybe we'll hear something in conversation. Nothing obvious, but maybe a hint."

"Do you think this shit has anything to do with what that reporter was telling us?"

You sit back and think, reviewing what Holly Piper told you about the events. "I don't know. Maybe. It's worth checking out. Let's look up some old newspaper stories and see what we can learn."

"I said I'd talk to Holly. I could see if she knows anything," he says.

"You can't bring this up to her. Not yet anyway. Not in detail. If she starts sniffing around about an underground secret lesbian club the shit will hit the fan in a big way."

"I think I could be subtle. Find out what she knows without giving up information."

"Not to insult you, but she's a trained reporter. She's probably way better than you at getting information out of a conversation. I'm not telling you not to talk to her, but don't expect much. And don't give up what you saw tonight. I know you want to get in her pants, but be careful." You grin at him, and get a smile and nod in return.

"We have a better chance of getting information out of some of those girls," you continue. "Megan is going to try to keep me distracted, and she's said she'll bring a friend. Between the two of us, maybe we can get something from them while they're fucking us. It should be fun to try anyway. Megan fucks like a mink," you smile as Brian grins.

"You think we should talk to Darnell and Kyle? Maybe they've picked up hints. Chanel said she fucked Darnell to distract him. Maybe he's got some ideas."

You think about that, considering possibilities. "Let's wait a while on that. I'd rather have something pretty solid before I brought anyone else into the loop. Meanwhile, let's go for breakfast."

The two of you walk up to the dining hall you see some students making their way in the same direction, looking pretty and innocent in their uniforms. You don't recognise any of them, but you find yourself speculating on the sexual proclivities of each girl you see.

The dining hall is about half full as you enter, and the two of you fill your plates and make your way to the teachers' table, joining Donna, Lorri and Darnell, making desultory small talk as you eat. After a few minutes, Darnell pushes his plate aside and stands up, saying he needs to get to his nine o'clock class.

"Ready to rock and roll?" Lorri asks with a grin. "You're looking tired Mason. Rough night?"

"Just didn't sleep well," you answer, toying with your food. "I'm ok." Lorri raises an eyebrow and exchanges a glance with Donna before turning her attention to Brian.

"You look a little more chipper. Oh to be young and full of piss and vinegar again," she laughs. What's on your agenda coach?"

"Three classes, and I thought I'd give some thought to drop in fitness sessions. There have been a few requests"

"Students or teachers?"

"Both. Apparently they were popular last year."

"I suppose. I also suppose that some of the students want to show themselves off to the handsome young coach. Maybe some of the teachers too. Speaking of which, where is young Monica?" she asks with a grin, making a show of looking around.

"I saw her running by the cottage this morning," Donna says with a grin of her own. "Not long after you ran by Coach."

You see the faintest flicker of a smile on Brian's face as he replies. "She caught up to me near the lake. We ran the path together." You see another glance pass between the two women, a flicker of amusement in their eyes.

"Well, I've got be going," Lorri says as she stands. "You gentlemen enjoy your day. And don't put up with any nonsense from these girls. Be strong and mean, gentlemen strong and mean." She gives you a final grin before striding away, her imposing body moving through students like a ocean liner among sailboats.

"You won't forget that you're coming for dinner tonight?" Donna asks you and Brian with a raised eyebrow. "Lorri and I are looking forward to entertaining the men of Pink Rose Academy. I look forward to an pleasant evening."

"I'll do my best," you answer with a tired smile.

"I hope so," she laughs. "I invited Honey and Monica to inspire the two of you. And the others of course."

"They inspire me," Brian laughs.

"I don't doubt it. And I suspect you inspire them," Donna replies with a wink that makes him colour slightly. "Not to mention the students. Some of them are panting even as we speak."

"I'm going to take a walk," you say as you rise. "You two have fun."

Donna grins at you and gives a little wave as you turn away. As you walk you see Grace giving you a yearning gaze and you carefully avoid meeting her eye as you leave the dining hall. You stride briskly out into the morning, deciding to enjoy the sun and fresh air for a while until your first class. With that thought you turn towards the south end of campus, looking forward to spending some time in the solitude of the lake and the woods.
