You opened the door

The door swung open and you stepped inside. As soon as Kyle stepped over the threshold, he saw the white bodysuit lying on the bed. It made him stagger and lean against the wall.

"What is it?! May, don't tell me that it is..."

"Yes, it's the bodysuit one of the maniacs wore... and I have one" - you innocently sat down on the bed next to the suit.

"B-but where did you get it?"

You sighed heavily again.

"Sit down... anywhere you want and I'll tell you all about it."

A stunned Kyle found a chair and turning it with its back to you, he sat directly across from you. Too many thoughts were swirling around in his head right now, and you wanted to dispel his doubts.

*A long detailed explanation of what happened that day and the day after, the details about masturbating in the bodysuit you omitted*

You finished your story and Kyle sat there with his mouth hanging open. You lowered your gaze and waited for his reaction.

"But... Why would you do that? You could have just called the police station and called in a squad for a cordon."

Kyle stood up abruptly from his chair.

"Or at least tell me! I would have helped you! But there's nothing we can do now, the suspect denies her involvement in this, the main evidence is in your room and your fingerprints are on it, you let the witness go! May, what was your motivation in taking this on?"

Kyle looked at you, not with anger, but with sadness and incomprehension.

You looked down at the floor and said quietly.

"I don't know..."

You began to fidget a little on the bed.

"I... I'm so... I don't..."

Kyle came over and sat down on the floor in front of you, taking your hands.

"It's okay, I'm sorry I got a little testy, take it easy, I'm not pushing you May."

Your heart started to open up to Kyle a little bit, you wanted his protection and support in the moment. Even the fact that he was holding your hand didn't seem strange to you anymore, you wanted him to hold you. But it wouldn't be right to dump everything on him, so you started from afar.

"Remember Halloween when we were kids?" - you asked quietly.

Kyle chuckled and turned away to sneer.

"Yeah I remember, you were just fancy dressed then. You decided to dress up as a wicked witch, and you were wearing latex gloves, boots and dress. And it's unclear where you got a cheap latex mask. What's your point?"

Your lips trembled a little, your heart began to beat again. You wanted to tell him, you wanted to open up a little, but you were afraid he wouldn't understand, would run away, turn you in to the police, and more. But somewhere in the back of your mind you hoped that he understood you, or at least tried to understand you. You grabbed the sleeve of his turtleneck with one hand.

"Please don't laugh."

He looked at you intently.

"Of course."

"I then wore that mask and clothes a few more times when my parents weren't home, and... I think it became my fetish."

You sat in complete silence, an awkward pause hanging between you.

"..."

It was killing you, it was **** you, you wondered why you said that, you wanted to disappear if it had lasted another second longer. But then Kyle tugged at your sleeve. He rubbed his nose a little and said.

"I thought you were very beautiful and... se... *cough* sexy in a special way then, too..." - Kyle turned away a little, the last words he said very quietly.

Life was beginning to come back to you.

"I'd even like to see you again... well... like I did then."

It was like you dropped off the world. You blurted out a wide grateful smile and tears came to your eyes a little.

"Kyle... I... thank you."

You hugged him first, and he reciprocated. You just quietly enjoyed the moment. Until Kyle did ask.

"Does this have anything to do with THIS?"

"Yes..." - you whispered softly in his ear.

"I couldn't help myself when I realized what they were wearing... And because of that, I'm totally screwed right now. But I have a plan," you pulled away from him.

"I plan to infiltrate their territory by dressing as one of them!"

Kyle grabbed you by the shoulders in shock.

"May, what are you doing? Don't! That's dangerous! Just get rid of that thing and we'll get on with the investigation."

You puffed out your cheeks.

"Sounds like a good plan to me, these girls are being brainwashed somehow, and it's probably happening at some base, in an abandoned hangar or wherever these factions usually congregate. You come with me and back me up, then nothing will happen to me" - you smiled broadly and patted him on the shoulder.

"We have to figure out how they do it, break things down if possible and get back in, but the police can't know about it! That's why I'm turning to you, I could have gone alone, but I thought it was too dangerous."

Kyle stood up, walked around the room then sat down in his chair with a thoughtful look.

"Don't tell me you just want to wear that bodysuit again?"

Your eyes flickered.

"N-no! Work first! It just seemed like a great opportunity to me... yeah, and a secret mission, it all sounds cool and adventurous, just thinking about it gives me the creeps" - you wrapped your arms around yourself and swayed a little.

Kyle burst into laughter.

"There's my young May from my childhood! I thought you'd changed, all serious and busy with your work.

You just smiled sadly at his words.

"You know, even though I don't like this idea, in the past wherever I went with you it worked out... I guess we could try it."

You jumped off the bed with joy.

"I knew you'd understand me! Thank you!"

"..."

An awkward pause hung in the room again. But another desire began to grow, and in that excited state you asked him out loud.

"Uh... Mmm... do you want me to try it on now?"

Kyle looked up at you with his keen gaze and was a little confused.

"Right now...?"
