For Tessa

My entire universe was spinning. So much of my core screamed to say no. But why? I wanted to get married. I felt so good. I was.... I was happy right now. Trying to escape had been so miserable.

"I give up," I said.

Kat looked at me. "Tessa my love, stay with me forever."

I smiled. No compulsion but I thought it was incredibly cute.

**** 7 years later ****

I blew a whistle and the girls stopped running around. "That's enough for today. Working hard is good but you should rest hard too."

I was a college basketball ball coach. I liked being a role model for them. I got to help shape them in ways I wasn't. I was so angry when I was younger. Imagine what would have happened to me if I learned to control my rage sooner? Well no sense worrying about it now.

Everyone left except for Kelly. She came over to me. "Ma'am. Can I talk to you about something?"

"Course," I said. The girls talked to me about a lot of stuff. Usually asking me about coming out as being a lesbian or something similar.

"I got the year book. So your loser #138. I need some help."

Oh darn. I didn't expect that. "You dealing with a lot of punishments?" I asked.

She nodded. "Yeah."

"Anything I should know? I don't wanna accidentally trigger you."

"No. They are only while on at school," she said.

"Wanna come over to dinner? My wife is a great cook. I'll try to help in the ways I can," I said smiling.

Author's notes. So yeah I was originally planning to stretch this out more but I was losing steam and had some trouble thinking of some more scenes to bring Tessa to her final conclusion. I'm probably done with this story(for now. Evil smile). I definitely got this out of my system. And dang I didn't count it all out but I'm guessing I was near 50k. Lol.

I do plan to come back to this some day. Maybe expand on Tessa. Maybe do an alternate ending. Or maybe start a new girl. Though for now. Consider Kelly a free gift prompt to all of you! Have fun with her if you want!

I encourage anyone that wants more scenes or more endings for Tessa. Go for it! This is a pick your own adventure story. I don't consider any specific ending to be canonical. Have fun! If you'd prefer to start the story of a different girl. Go for it! Actually if you want to see me return faster. Seeing others make stories in this world will probably get my creative juices flowing. I'm so thankful to everyone that loved this story and reached out to me for comments or suggestions. They were all amazing! My message box is always open.

Til next time!
