"well Cally you've spent two days with me and Cat, what do you think" asks Tori as she signs as well
"my cochlear implant is in you don't have to sign, are you suggesting what I think you're suggesting" asks Cally
"yes, I'm asking if you are ok with sharing me with Cat, I was afraid at first but as I spent time with you I began to understand why my mom liked the idea of having two girlfriends so much, my mind has been going wild with ideas where you, Cat and I can all have fun in bed and I can't help but giggle at the thought of you two in bed with me but I'm not gonna force you to though, if you want to great, if not it's ok too" says Tori
"Cat's pretty protective, I want to but I'm afraid she'll hog you, she tends to do that" says Cally
"while she isn't fond of sharing she put the idea out there that if she was gonna share me with anyone that you'd be her first choice, she does have three rules for when we do start making love however, no kitten access, minimal girl access but you can kiss her but you can not make out with her" says Tori
"I understand, we probably won't be doing much of that, she's rather sensitive to touch, she was watching a movie one time and kinda zoned out, I literally just barely touched her to ask her if she had wanted lunch and I swear she jumped so high she could have hit her head on the ceiling" says Cally
"yeah I've noticed that a normal persons level five pain on a scale of one to ten for her is more like a seven or eight, my mom is a drug researcher and ya it's a real thing, Veronica calls it Sensitivity sensory displacement, basically her brain reads pain or touch differently, also I doubt she zoned out, most likely she didn't hear you on top of her sensory issues" says Tori
"she does not have hearing issues" says Cally
"by definition of having Diffusive speech confusion disorder she has hearing issues, the disorder literally messes with sight, hearing, taste and touch, for whatever reason it hasn't been proven to mess with smell, trust me more often than not to me chicken either tastes sweet or sour, at least three times a week I end up with eye-liner lips or don't hear my alarm and end up late to school" says Tori as Cally hugs her
"that tracks, she's very particular about what she eats, she generally goes for sweet foods and sour snacks, like those citrus crystal covered gummies and stuff, I guess in context it means she knows what it is supposed to taste like so maybe it helps or something" says Cally
"ahh yes it definitely does, normal not breaded chicken doesn't generally taste great or like chicken at all, however adding breading with powerful spices does seem to break through, my doctor believes people with DS-CD lock on to the very first even if faint taste we get from food, tenderized meat is the worst offender, mainly because it's the first taste we taste, what's worse is it tends to stick for about an hour, so I could eat tenderized steak for dinner then chips and dip half an hour later as I watch a movie by myself and the chips would taste like meat" says Tori
"can we go cuddle my sister, I happen to know she loves cuddles" asks Cally
"you're right about that one, you're really getting into this huh girly" asks Tori
"yes and hey the rules are in place, we used to bathe together all the time, Cat hated being alone in the bathtub especially if it was stormy so it's not like I've never seen her naked before, sure it got me curious but I always knew where the line was, I've always considered baths with Cat a look but don't touch situation, she's kinda OCD about making sure her back and butt are pimple clear so baths with her are the only time I've ever touched her body like that, I cleaned her back and butt and she did mine" says Cally as they head to Cat's room
"yeah given the touch sensitivity, butt and back pimples can really hurt especially if they get infected and its not always easy to fix them by yourself, honestly I'm glad she cares about her body" says Tori as they lay on the bed beside Cat
"hey, did she agree" asks Cat
"she did, she understood the issue regarding why you needed rules in place, her main concern is you're gonna hog me" says Tori
"given our argumentative past I can totally understand that however going forward I want her included in everything we do, shopping, dates, movie nights and making love I want her included in it all, maybe tomorrow we can go to the mall, it's far enough from the school we should be safe right" says Cat
"it might be however I feel leaving with an armed and dangerous person at large is a serious risk Cat, but if you want to go then we all go, safety is better in numbers" says Tori
4 hours later as Maria returns from work and Cat and Cally are asleep
"is there any chance Chad could come to the mall with us tomorrow" asks Tori
"that's not a good idea with that shooter still on the loose but I can always ask, are you dating both my girls" says Maria
"yes I know it's not a good idea, especially since the cops told me that the shooter is an extreme right wing nut trying to teach my dad a lesson and that they may target me or whoever I'm around, also yes, there are strict rules in place, neither Cat nor Cally are allowed to touch each other's kittens, Cat put rules in place for boob access as well as kissing, no squeezes of either of their boobs and kissing is allowed but no make out sessions, maximum of five second kisses as well between Cat and Cally" says Tori
"you know Cat is very smart, I'm not at all surprised about the kissing thing, Cally basically worships Cat because Cat while trapped by fear more often then not refused to let fear stop her from going to school or shopping for cute clothes, Cally is generally too afraid to be called a liar for her inability to hear without help of her implant" says Maria
"if I may ask what caused her to lose her hearing, she said she used to be able to hear fine but lost it" asks Tori
"actually I'm glad you asked, she fell off a jungle jim when she and Cat were six, she broke her wrists and the doctor said her neck was damaged too so they put her in one of those immobile neck braces to heal and the doctor said she might have gotten a severe ear infection from the shampoo and conditioner the hospital used to clean her hair while she was in the hospital, it wasn't like she suddenly lost her hearing either, it was a very gradual thing, over the course of two weeks the range of sounds she could hear dropped, she can still hear some sounds, the highest of high pitch noises and the lowest of low pitch noises but nothing in between, to this day she gets compensated from that hospital because it could have been avoided, her immune system isn't exactly great and the hospital knew that" says Maria
"will she ever be able to hear again normally, either way won't change how I feel about her it's just I don't want her to live in fear, I don't want either of them to live in fear" says Tori
"Tori dear, with you loving them neither of them will be in the grips of fear ever agai, you have no idea just how much you make them happy, Cally rarely wears her cochlear implant tech because she hates it, says it makes her ugly, yesterday when you hugged her I could see the fear and stress vaporize instantly, she went from gritting her teeth to biting her lip to stop herself from kissing you in six seconds, I've never seen anyone change her mood that fast, like no joke, nobody could have done that but you" says Maria as Chad walks in
"why hello Tori, how are you today" says Chad
"to what do I owe the pleasure of your visit bro" asks Maria
"as you know sis my husband is a police officer and we protect our own, especially now that she's dating both my nieces" says Chad
"how'd you find that out exactly" asks Tori
"Cally texts me daily Tori, it wouldn't take long for me to find out about your relationship with her, Cat talks to me about flying and life in general, Cally is way more specific, she asks about love and how one would know if they love someone" says Chad
"why didn't Cally come to me about this, I am her mother" asks Maria
"because Maria you shield them, you keep certain things a secret from them, and while you have a reason to keep secrets about your past sister I am compelled to answer their questions truthfully, however if I feel you or Greg would answer the question better I say as such and they respect me for it" says Chad
"so can you go with them to the mall tomorrow, you have your gun right" asks Maria
"I always have my gun on me, do Cat and Cally still have those bullet proof vests they got from that take your child to work day when Greg worked for the LAPD" says Chad
"you bet they do" says Maria
"ok make sure they're wearing them, I'll give my husband a call and see if we can get Tori one" says Chad as he calls his husband
"hey babe what's up, are the girls safe" asks Jared
"yes they're safe, Cat wants to take them to the mall for a little mall shopping therapy but Tori doesn't have a bullet proof vest, the girls still have theirs" says Chad
"what's her bust size" asks Jared
"tiny, that's all that matters, my bra size is a B cup if that helps" says Tori
"bigger or smaller than Cat or Cally's?" asks Chad
"not much bigger than Cat's" says Tori
"ok since you are the districts congressman's daughter I assume you can pay for one" asks Jared
"yes I can, how much is it" asks Tori
"three grand, comes with bullet proof sleeves, neck covering and between the legs coverings as well as the obvious vest" says Jared
"I have the money just not in cash, do Cat and Cally have the same equipment I'm getting or not?" asks Tori
"ok money isn't needed right now, not while you are in direct danger" says Jared as he hangs up
"so when do I get it" asks Tori scared now
"in a few minutes, Jared is good like that, he keeps a few extra sets in his vehicle for his teen kidnap victims when he rescues them so that if they're shot at the people he rescues have a far less chance of receiving a fatal wound" says Chad
"he never answered my question about if Cat or Cally have the same equipment I just made a deal to buy, wait I'm buying Police equipment, how is that legal" asks Tori
"you're a big part of this community, your dad is a congressman but that doesn't matter here, so many family's here worship your courage, especially after learning what you go through from your dad and when you confirmed it they would demand you, Cat and Cally got police protection if they knew you were a target of that shooter, he's killed two of your classmates trying to find out where you are so he can teach your dad what it really means to be a republican, please tell me you have some sort of carry license" says Chad
"my mom got me a small one, a .22 or something of that size, only has five shots, it's only for self-defense, never had to use it outside of the range to make sure I keep up accuracy if I did ever have to use it" says Tori
"Cat and Cally do not currently have the extra protection but I'm sure that's gonna change' says Chad as Tori curls up on the couch crying at the loss of two of her classmates
