Your embarrassment is only just beginning...

"Everything OK in there, kids?"

You both pause as your mom's voice reaches you. You take the opportunity to quickly snatch your clothes from the bed and pull them on before Candy can stop you.

"Everything's great, mom," you answer, opening the door.

"We'll be leaving in 5 minutes, so finish up whatever it is you're doing," she smiled and retreating.

"You realise this isn't over, right?" Candy asked, turning your blood to ice.

"A-are you going to delete those pictures?" you ask.

"No. How do you feel, knowing I'm just a few taps away from humiliating you in front of the entire school? That wasn't rhetorical," she finished when you didn't answer.

"Really embarrassed," you confess, shivering and not making eye contact.

"Good," Candy replied, tossing you your phone. Standing up, she guided you downstairs, lightly squeezing your butt. "I'll be seeing you soon."

As your mom drove you home, the realisation dawned on you that you'd just been blackmailed for the first time in your life.

As you walk down the busy corridor, someone brushes past you. You had the sensation of a small, warm hand slipping into your back pocket for just a second.

"Hey!" You call out, but they had disappeared into the crowd.

You reach into your back pocket and pull out a hand written note.

"My house. 5 o'clock Friday. Don't be late. C."

You groan. Candy had as usual been ignoring you at school, but you had known it would be unwise to think that she wouldn't have some fun with you at some point.

You knock on Candy's front door and wait impatiently for it to open, a rucksack on your back.

When you got home from school, you learned why Candy had decided to act now; your parents were going away together for the weekend, meaning Candy would have the house to herself.

You didn't have long to wait before the door opened and a smiling Candy admitted you.

"Come on in, Sam."

You checked your watch as she locked the door behind you. 5 o'clock, exactly.

48 hours until Candy would release you.

48 hours of hell.
