HIGH TENSIONS Continued from “Surprise For Lisa” It was two days after Alice had hired a dominatrix to teach Lisa a lesson, which she hadn’t learned anyway. Instead of treated Alice as an equal, she hadn’t said a word to her former friend. Alice was worried. She had just wanted to have some fun, but instead she had lost her best friend. Any time she tried to talk to Lisa, the other girl would ignore her or leave. Today, as the band began to file in for practice, Alice literally cornered Lisa. “Come on, Lisa, please! Listen to me! I just want to say I’m – oomph!” Lisa hit her hard in the stomach, knocking the air out of her. While Alice was stunned, Lisa punched her in her chest, hitting one of her breasts and causing her a lot of pain. “Leave me the hell alone, Alice!” she growled, and stalked off. Heather, who was watching nearby, came over to Alice, who was still coughing and now clutching her chest. The younger girl put her arm around Alice’s shoulders, “What was that about?” she asked. Cough! “I don’t know! She…” Cough! “Hates me!” was Alice’s pained answer. “Um, why?” Heather was confused. “I thought you were, like, best friends!” Recovering, Alice said, “Let’s go into the other room, and I’ll explain everything. There’re too many people here…” Heather told the director where they were going, and the two left the noisy band room behind. The other room was a piano room full of electric keyboards. It was quiet and almost soundproof, and there was only a small window in the door, so it was perfect for private meetings like this. The keyboards provided good excuses for being there, too. Heather and Alice pulled up chairs and sat facing each other. Alice began, “Remember that night when we were locked in the cage?” The other girl nodded. “Well, we weren’t supposed to be. But, Lisa thought it would be funny to take the key without me knowing it, and leave us there. So, I tried to get back at her by ambushing her in the band room. That didn’t work and she got away and tied me up instead. Except it wasn’t nice. I didn’t want her to, but she did it anyway, saying she was showing her ‘dominance.’ I thought, fine, if she thinks she’s dominant, I’ll find somebody more dominant to teach her a lesson. Well, I did, and Lisa took it the wrong way. Now she will hardly look at me.” Heather listened, processing what Alice was saying. “Knowing Lisa, that’s not enough alone to draw hatred. You didn’t do anything like videotape her getting punished by this…whoever…you found, did you?” Alice hung her head, and she blushed. “Yeah, I did. I taped her getting the treatment, then when Lady Monique left…” “Wait, wait, wait. You hired a professional!?” Heather gasped. “Yeah.” Alice said in a small voice. “Okay,” Heather reviewed, “So you hired a real dominatrix, videotaped the session, then what?” “Um, well…after Lady Monique left, she said I was now Lisa’s mistress. So, to finish things off, I… oh this is embarrassing!” “Go on! I won’t tell anyone.” Heather took Alice’s hands. “Tell me.” “When I tried to finish her off, I exercised the role of the mistress. I made her cum with a strap-on, then made her…suck the strap-on clean…then I made her make me cum! After everything was over, I did a little interview with her on the camera. The whole time, she was bound strictly. I forced her to call me ‘Mistress,’ and when she got shy and humiliated, I made things worse by getting in the movie with her and telling the story myself, calling her ‘good girl,’ and ‘obedient little angel.’ It was all supposed to be a joke, honest! She just took it the wrong way.” “Why not let me watch the video?” “Oh, no, I couldn’t! I don’t want to see it myself! I’m ashamed of it now.” “Please?” Heather made a puppy-face. “It might reveal a few things about this whole mess.” At the idea of making things right with Lisa, Alice consented. She dug in her backpack and found the tape. She stood on a chair to reach the TV/VCR unit that hung suspended from the wall. “You asked for it.” Alice climbed down and put her head down on her arms, hiding her face. Heather watched the video intently. She saw everything from Lisa first being bound, to the whippings, to the Whip Massage, to Alice taking over and doing everything she said she had done. When the tape ended, Heather turned to Alice. “Well, I think you just really embarrassed her. You need to try and tell her that you didn’t mean to, and…” The door swung open violently. Lisa blew in. “You idiot! I hate you, Alice! You just showed her the video; I watched you from outside!” Alice rose slowly. “Please, Lisa, listen…” “No! I can’t believe you, you…” Heather cut in. “Lisa, please listen to her. She feels really bad about what happened, and she only showed me the movie so I could see what went on that offended you so badly.” “Shut up, Heather!” Lisa shouted, “Or I’ll humiliate you the same way she humiliated me! You’re going to use that tape as blackmail, aren’t you, Alice?” “No! I would never do that!” Alice defended herself. “I think you would, too, you…” “Please, Lisa!” Heather tried again, “She really needs you to…” “I said SHUT UP!!!” Lisa screamed and hit Heather in the face. The startled sophomore fell backwards in shock. “Don’t you touch her!” Alice yelled, and rushed to defend Heather. Lisa and Alice were at each other’s throats in seconds. Heather could do nothing to stop them, and was going to go for help before someone got killed when the door opened again. It was Nicole, passing by on her way to chorus, and curious about the sounds of fighting coming from the room. Heather, Alice, and Lisa froze and stared at Nicole. “Um, hi?” Nicole said tentatively. “What’s going on in here?” Heather ran to Nicole’s side. “They’re going to kill each other!” “Why?!” Nicole was very interested now. “You want to show her the tape too, Alice?” Lisa shouted. “If it would end your sulking, yes!” Alice responded. “My sulking!?” Lisa cried, and they began fighting again. “Oh my!” Nicole was aghast. She didn’t like violence much. “Come on!” Heather cried. She and Nicole rushed over and finally succeeded in separating the two girls. With the fighting stopped, Heather quickly explained to Nicole what had happened. Nicole thought a moment. “Well, I think all that went wrong was that Alice was having a little too much fun.” She turned to face both of the seniors who were still glaring at each other, “You two need to communicate. You need to explain to each other what you do and do not like, and what is absolutely off-limits during your...whatever it is that you do. Neither of you like to be dominated, so you need to treat each other as equals. On the other hand, both of you like to dominate the other, so you should find someone else to do that with.” Nicole’s speech was met with stunned silence while the three other girls thought about what she had just said. Then, Lisa purred, “Do you want to be that...special girl?” She eyed Nicole hungrily. Damn, she’d be fun! Lisa thought. Nicole paled a little, “Uh, no thanks!” She backed away. “Well, hope you get this all sorted out!” she said quickly, “I have to go!” She bolted out the door. “She’s right, you know.” Alice said to Lisa. “Yeah, I guess she is.” Lisa responded. There was an uncomfortable silence. Then… “Well, let’s take her advice, and see how things go.” Alice said. “Okay. I can live with that, but who’s around that will willingly do that? If I don’t get to be somebody’s mistress every now and then, I get bored!” Lisa said. “Same here,” Alice said. They thought, drawing blanks as to who would work… “How about me?” Slowly, Lisa and Alice turned to look at Heather. She was sitting down, staring at the floor, and wringing her hands a little. “You?” they both asked, almost at once. “Yeah. You can be equals to each other, and you can be my mistresses.” “But…you hate the stuff we do!” Lisa exclaimed. “I know. I can learn to like it. You can force me to learn to like it.” Heather sounded scared and nervous, like she was admitting to a crime. “Really?” Alice asked, “You’d do that for us?” Heather slowly rose, walked silently over to Alice and Lisa, and knelt down before them, bowing her head. “Yes, Mistress.” She spoke in barely a whisper, and was trembling a little. Lisa knelt down to Heather’s level. “Thanks, Heather,” she said, and hugged her friend, “You’re the greatest.” Alice too bent down and hugged Heather from the other side, her gaze meeting Lisa’s. They both knew they were friends again. Heather felt warm in their arms, but inside she was cold and afraid. She knew she was going to force herself to do things she despised, but her bold move had bridged the gap between Alice and Lisa. That made it all worth it, and Heather reassured herself that these two wouldn’t be too hard on her. At least I hope not, she thought. Continued in “Heather’s Training Begins” |
