You take Miki down a notch

Maybe how you handle Miki and her demands will tell you all you need to know about how Tanya really feels about you. It will also show her how you feel. You're not used to fighting naked, but there's a first time for everything. Your parents didn't enroll you in martial arts classes for nothing. They wanted to make sure you could defend yourself. It was right when you hit puberty that they decided you needed to learn, so for about the last seven years you've been learning Tae Kwon Do. "No one fucks me in any hole without my permission, or my girlfriend's permission. Especially people I don't know, and I don't know you. You can't just barge in here, and order people around like that." You ready yourself for Miki to turn around.

"Ellie, don't cause problems with her. Just go with her, okay?" Tanya says.

You turn, kind of puzzled by Tanya's words. "Do you want me to fuck her?"

"No!" answers Tanya. "But I don't want any trouble with her either!"

It's then that you feel the sting of a cat o' nine tails on your back. Enraged, you turn to face Miki and quickly take her feet out from under her with a leg sweep. She falls flat on her back as the cat o' nine tails flies out of her hand, and across the room. You quickly pounce on her, ready to strike her face with an open hand. "Hit me again with that thing, and it will be the last time you ever do. do we have an understanding?"

Miki cringes and tries to protect her face from an oncoming blow. "Yes, I understand" she says. "I'm sorry. I'm just upset about a lot of things. I don't know what got into me." She looks at you like a scared little child.

You decide the threat is over, and stand up, offering Miki your hand. "Don't you think talking about it would be a better thing to do than the stunt you tried to pull?"

"You're right" Miki admits as she rises to her feet. "I'm very sorry. I lost a girlfriend before, and now I've lost a girlfriend and a boyfriend. None of it is easy for me."

"Cuz, you know I told you we'd always be friends" says Tanya. "Just because we're not lovers any more doesn't mean we can't be close. But I do love Ellie now. And I'm finding that I love her for many reasons. The way she stood up to you shows me she loves me more than I could ever imagine. I'm very lucky to have her in my life. But I've also considered myself lucky to have you in my life. I'm glad you still are, and I'll never turn you away, no matter what."

You turn your attention back to Tanya. "You mean to tell me you two were lovers? That explains a lot."

"Yeah, we were" says Miki. "I was the one who walked away. I thought it was best, because I could see the end coming. I never quite got over it. I never quite got over you, Tanya. A part of me will always love you, and what we started together."

"Well, why can't you both make a brand new start?" you suggest. "We all love each other here, for one reason or another. Will you join us, Miki?"

Miki giggles for the first time since she's walked through the door. "That means I have to take the risk again, don't I?"

"Yes it does!" Tanya smiles at her. "Besides, we could always use a good Dominatrix for our movies!"

"Well, I have the tattoo for it. Count me in!" says Miki, smiling.
