POV Narrator:
Bernadette's victory was something decisive for her, as she could finally be on the top of the podium showing all her skill on a broomstick, but that became the only one, as Laura in the next race practically dominated the whole race, Laura practically dominated the whole race, putting almost a second and a half on the pole position time and then winning the race practically putting a huge time on Cavendish, the race in which she was second was also remarkable for everyone to see how McLaren could run manually, seeing all that broom melting. After the great race, time went by in Luna Nova, it was already the end of the school year, the girls were getting ready to enter the summer vacation, they were also doing their final exams, which would define who would pass and who would have to spend some days of the summer in Luna Nova. The girls were quite calm about this since, due to Laura's influence, many of them were smarter than what they were going through, having huge chances to pass the year without even having to study hard. Luna Nova itself wasn't a complicated academy, it was the most popular in Europe for that very reason, what McLaren didn't know until the beginning of the year and even made her a little bit angry and frustrated expecting a super complicated academy, but even so with time she was enjoying the place and was even spending the best moments of her life there.
Again the tension was returning to the Lhotus, since the investigations about all that had already ended on the witches' part and the humans' part made a point to emphasize showing all that on television, which also concluded that it wasn't the academy's director's fault, that it was a secret society of witches that sacrificed other witches, which reduced the credibility of the witches even more, since no one believed in the idea of men using magic, not even the witches themselves believed in that and came to the conclusion that it was just a strange secret society of witches who performed sacrifices and cults among themselves, although it was nothing like that, the girls knew well that it was nothing like that and some of Appleton's students also knew it was nothing like that, but they only left it because of the director's orders so that it wouldn't tarnish even more the academy's image.
Friday, May 27, 1988
It was a normal school day the girls were coming back from their final exams after more tests and exams that were happening that day, they were taking advantage that it was a friday day and headed to the blue team's room to celebrate a little among themselves after an exhausting week, as soon as they arrived at the room many of them threw themselves on the pouffes in the room, while Bernadette picked up the letters that were sent to her during the week what she always used to do was always read the letters at the weekend and with that she saw an envelope in specific that made her eyes widen in surprise with what she just saw.
POV Bernadette:
Paul? Why on earth would he send me a letter? He must have known for a long time that I am no longer loved by my family, he also knows that I don't want anything to do with him and that I am a lesbian? This is all very strange, very strange indeed, well let's see what he sent me, I take the letters and go into my private room with Laura, so the girls will think that she and I went to do something else and it won't disturb us, although I am on my period for now, well let's see here.
- What is it love? You're not... - Laura said.
- Yes I am, but I just came to read my letters in peace and you are the person I trust the most here, besides, me taking you to the room makes them think otherwise, so no one disturbs us and I have the privacy to read my letters - I say shrugging as I open the envelope.
"This is Paul, show up with your most attractive friends at the Ley Line plaza in Blightonbury at six o'clock Friday afternoon on the 27th of May, don't even think about missing it, because it could affect the integrity of not only you, but all your friends, after all I know you are behind everything that happened at my academy, including all that destruction, I know it was you, if you don't want me to tell, then you better come with your most attractive friends, that includes preferably Eleanora Maria White, you know... Just come with her, the others I'm not interested in... Signed: Paul Hanbridge"
Shit... This bastard now wants more, he wants to blackmail us... Holy Beatrix Lesbian, I can not believe I have to endure this, well let's take Eleanora then ... I'll read the other letters later, we have to prepare Eleanora to talk to this bastard ... Just when she is fixed, just when she is so happy with Naomi, always visiting her. I was very tense, so much so that Laura soon came all worried, wanting to know the reason for all this tension.
- What is it love? - asked my little freckle.
- That damned Paul Hanbridge, he wants Eleanora's presence and I don't doubt at all that it's for something more... He is blackmailing us... Just because he knows it was us that day - I tell Laura who just changes her expression to a more serious one.
- I got it baby... Good, then let's go see Eleanora, we'll talk to the damn thing and he'll just leave us alone soon - Laura said holding my hand and then we'll go to the outside of the room, the girls as always made some jokes like "They were fast", always silly as usual, but we soon went towards Eleanora that was getting ready to take off.
POV Eleanora:
They only pretended to have sex, I bet it was just to talk more in private, this old tactic is already used to me, I always used to do this with Naomi before we started dating, when we would pretend to have sex and Velma would go to another room, but in reality it was just to talk and have sex, I won't deny that I used to enjoy that moment to have crazy sex, but never mind, I'm very perverted in my head, but when I was about to leave and visit Naomi, the little couple soon approached me.
- Come with us Maria White, it's something serious - said the rusty-haired girl.
- And it involves a lot of your presence, please... - Said the cabbage which I just shrug and walk with them to their room.
They show me a letter that was delivered by Bernadette and I immediately start reading it, it was about that guy... Paul... He still wants something with me seriously this... But when I got to the in-between lines about him knowing everything that's when I opened my eyes and for the holy nine witches! He's a son of a bitch bastard! He wants to blackmail us to get privileges... Well I feel honored that he found me the most attractive... But still, I don't see why he would want anything to do with me. But well... I guess it's my fate, I'm a fucking little bitch, I made this reputation and now I have to make it count unfortunately... I was even crying a little because I thought about Naomi, she is so happy, so well, and I have to betray her with him... Fuck... Why... The two girls soon hug me and try to comfort me a little, despite everything they are friends.
- Well I'm going, I'm going because I want to clear everything up, but we have a couple of hours until then, so first let's talk to Naomi, I don't want her not to know about the son of a bitch that this bastard is doing, I don't want her not to know about these atrocities, then let's go there to wait for what he wants, I hope it's not to have sex with him all the time - I tell the girls while wiping the tears.
- Hey girl, relax, he can't just turn us in just like that, remember that if he does this without thinking about it, it can even fuck up his side, even without proof, and if they come to our side, they will know that we are innocent... What fucks more is for you and Rose's side... You detonated that place and you can even go to jail for it," Laura said to me, which I already had a good idea about and I just nodded my head.
After this conversation we get the brooms and say goodbye to the girls, telling them that we are going out to see Naomi and also to take care of some things, they just shrug and go on with their little party in their room, obviously, the videogames and music are a thousand times more interesting, I won't blame them, not to mention that I would be there drinking a little and grabbing one of them if it was me before, until we arrive at the Arcturus forest and soon all that brightness starts to emanate, all of us were shrunk and stopped in the middle of those trees, it was impressive how in a short time everybody had already made a whole city in the top of those trees and it was funny to see Laura shrunk, she was already a stub of people, now she was even more hahaha. Until we are received by Naomi who soon gives me a hug and I kiss her.
- I missed you my love, how was your week? Did you do well in your exams? Are you going out with the girls? Or are you going to stay here with me? I have good news about little Ruth - she said all excited while I tried to show a little animation although my head is filled with something else.
- Oh sure, I'd love to hear about our Ruth, she's all grown up my love, oh and I did well in the exams, I think I'll stay here with you, I want to spend time with my wonderful Jewish girl - I tell her who just smiles at me.
I couldn't be direct, so we went to Naomi's house, where she kept talking to me about Ruth, who was kicking a few kicks that she was getting big and was predicted to be born in October or September, and she was also talking a lot about the days in the village, how wonderful it was, how they were always far away from all danger, how they managed to grow their own vegetable garden and even raise some animals to be able to support themselves, since before they had to hunt their own food at the risk of being attacked by magical creatures, until Laura ended up interrupting all that because I guess I couldn't, I didn't want to talk about it with Naomi.
- Look girls, I know this is all beautiful, but Maria White has to talk about something, something important and that says a lot about both of you... Please, Eleanora, don't try to pull too hard on your wife, tell her about what we just got today - Laura said, pressing me a little, and I took a deep breath and reflected a little.
- About what my love? Has something happened? From your expression it looks like something serious... You don't have to worry about telling me... I am here to give you all the comfort in the world, just take a deep breath and think before you speak... Don't worry my darling, I won't be mad at you, there's no way - said Naomi speaking with her usual soft and gentle way, which she is really right, I've never seen Naomi angry, she is always the calmest person in the world.
I take a deep breath and soon begin to tell Naomi about the letter and all of Paul's blackmail, I was struck by one thing, she was showing shock, but at the same time that I was all desperate, she was showing enormous calm, as if nothing was going to bring her down, she didn't even get angry or anything and that made me even more tense, because I couldn't imagine a reaction like that from my Naomi, so much so that after what I said she just ran her hand over my face and wiped my tears away.
- It's okay my love, you don't have to feel like you are betraying me, I completely understand that this is nothing but blackmail, this bastard just wants something in return and he probably won't ask for too much and even if he does, if you do it will be for the good of all of us, this is much more noble than keeping fidelity in any relationship... Look at me, I am the mother of a daughter that I was forced to have by an unknown man, not even for that I will disregard the child, know that I will not break up with you because of a greater good, you will probably do it to defend the integrity of all your friends, that is noble... And relax, guys like that get sick fast, so do what you have to do, I know you love me - Naomi said, which made me a little more relieved at how understandable she was.
- I'll make this sacrifice, but it's for the girls, you can be sure, honey, besides, you're right, it's just sex, soon he'll get tired of wanting it and we'll just have to make up his mind, after all, he can get really fucked up if he thinks about giving us up, his life can be in great danger - I tell her until we kiss.
I kiss Naomi good-bye and then we go to Blightonbury Square to wait for the asshole, I just hope that all this blackmailing will be over soon, I just hope that it will only be sex once or for a short time, because if not I will be very short and rude to this guy... Luckily Bern and Laura were by my side, the two of them would know how to act, they would be the voice of reason at that moment, since I am a little impulsive person, I act a lot by impulse without thinking twice. Until after a while his Ron Rolls shows up, until the guy is not bad at all, he even has a private driver, a fucking car like this and a fucking standard of living, he can literally buy any bitch with that money and have a more fucked up experience, by the holy nine witches what a dumb guy, even more than a bitch fucks much better than I do, until he gets off the car and goes in our direction, the driver soon goes for a ride.
- You three come with me, I want to talk to you in a more private way - he said until we followed him to a place under a tree.
- What do you want with our friend? - said Bernadette in a more serious tone.
- And before I say, I just have to talk about your family, from what my mother told me your mother is going crazy, she is obsessed with your little sister training her every day to be the future leader, it seems that you got rid of this weight to throw on the back of his little sister, feel happy about it? Your dear sister being practically tortured by her mother, but that's none of my business, so what the hell, I came here just to talk about Eleanora Maria White - He said trying to demoralize Bern.
- Just say what you want and leave us alone - I tell him, standing in front of the two girls until he just stares at me as if imposing his superiority, already wanting to play the alpha male.
- Easy there girl, look I'm not going to make you spend a whole year having sex with me before you complain, you haven't complained about any of the times I've fucked you in all these days, but that's beside the point, I was interested in your looks, I know you're a disgusting witch, but that's beside the point... I only want one thing to come from you Eleanora Maria White, who to my honest opinion is the most attractive girl I have ever seen, beautiful young woman with a beautiful body... In a few years I want you in my family's mansion, you will give birth to my heir and don't think to deny it, this is at the cost of your friends' integrity and even yours... Since I heard that the witches behind this would pay dearly, I don't speak on behalf of the humans, but they are the words of the very witches who investigated what they were doing in Appleton, whatever they did there, they don't give a shit about the Order of the Chosen of Lhotus, in fact they don't even know about it, so it's your word against their word - Damn... Now he's really got me... I even swallow my saliva... I take a deep breath, start to look down, think a little... And then I come to a conclusion.
- Okay... I will make your heir... On the condition that you leave us alone for the rest of your life, because we also have evidence that can incriminate you Paul Hanbridge, you are 18 years old and you can go to jail for... Pedophilia, that's exactly it, we also have the power to incriminate you for that, we have concrete evidence and it is not only your mother's scolding that will get you out of this, if I want I can get a whole report from each one of the girls incriminating you, you lose your career and go to jail for the rest of your life, they will eat your ass beautifully in jail and I will laugh a lot, I can be arrested for what I did in Appleton, but I will take you down with it, I just hope very much that one day this son of yours will discover his father's shitty past and run to find out the truth behind his mother - I say all confident until he just fixes his tie and after that he shakes my hand accepting the deal, then he just leaves and stands in the square waiting for his car to arrive.
We soon get the brooms and go away from there returning to the village of the little people in the forest of Arcturus, where I stay a little without reaction, but I go to Naomi's house, where she was sitting on the sofa waiting for me, I go to her and give her a warm hug, but taking all the care possible, already Laura and Bernadette continued without reaction, they didn't know how to react. I imagine it was because of my sudden response, which I admit I did a little on impulse.
- So baby, how was it? How long is he going to be at it? - asked my Naomi.
- None, he will only want it once... I am sorry for this love, but when the time comes I will go 9 months without seeing her... if you know what I mean... I accepted his proposal to give him an heir... All I know is that I hope very much that it will be a boy, after all this will at least be quick and painless... I'll only do it once and come back to you But if it's not I'm fucked, I'll have to give birth to a girl... And he won't want to, it will tarnish his pride as a straight man - I tell Naomi.
- Look, we didn't know how to react, but your answer was very direct Maria White, you could use that to deny yourself, but no... - Said Laura well after the hour, but yes, I really could, but I don't know why, I feel as if one day that heir will be of great importance... I feel like there will be something that will make me feel better about my decision.
- Laura! Don't say something like that at a time like this! Ellie was on pure impulse, she had no idea how to react after such a proposal and wanting it or not is only for a while, he only wants a son, the good thing is that having this son at least this man matures and I even thought it was intelligent for Eleanora to accept this proposal, who knows the magic manifests itself in the boy and that makes that man even more furious and if he tries anything... Just come here to the forest, we have plenty of room, we can now support ourselves, although your donations are also very welcome - said Naomi moralizing the queen of mockery that only remained quiet.
After that Naomi just kept stroking me, she comforted me, I was amazed at how super quiet she is, despite that, she didn't make a point of bothering me, so much that I lay on her thighs and the girls on the other hand just waved goodbye to us, they even waved and left the villa, including the dwarf one that was dwarf again hahah... Oh how I love that Laura always stays low even when shrunk.
POV Bernadette:
Holy lesbian Beatrix, now it was a reaction without even thinking much... But what a thing, this Paul will now blackmail our friend to have his heir... Well, I am relieved that he won't use me for that, but at the same time I am furious with him, godmother Tracey gave him a wonderful education, took care of him so well to be a good boy and he became this? After this we flew back to Luna Nova, but before we arrived to go to my team's room, Laura stopped me, I didn't understand a thing.
- What is it love? Shall we go to your room? - I ask her.
- Almost that my love, but before we go into action, I want to ask the principal's permission for something I've been planning for this year-end, something that will unite us all," Laura said as she led me through the halls to her staff room.
When we got there she took some rolls of cardboard and I had no idea what it was, and also a folder with some papers, as soon as she got everything we went to the principal, where the principal was practically sleeping there and we unwittingly woke her up ... Another thing that I noticed was the teacher Finnelan that followed us all the time in the corridors, I bet that she wants something, the principal let us in and soon she asked us what we wanted, if we got in trouble, if teacher Finnelan was homophobic again until Laura answered her taking one of the cardboard rolls.
- It's about homophobia that is going to be the subject of today, ma'am, I have been planning something big for the end of this year... I heard from the students who are in the upper grades and they told me that there is always an end of the year party to celebrate graduation and the end of the year and this year I thought of something different, something that won't be just a party? I thought of that - she says, making some pictures appear until she opens the card showing what she has.
"Luna Nova Pride Parade 1988" Pride Parade? But pride in what? Iris Arc... Ahhhh, I get it, she wants to have a pride parade of the students, these symbols, are the double Venus and the transgender symbol, but how incredible, there are also other posters with other sexualities around like Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Pansexual, Trans, but how incredible, Laura plans a parade of our pride, of our pride to be who we are, so this is the surprise she told me so much about these days? So she asked us to sign a paper about a Luna Nova pride parade? I love the idea, I really hope the director approves. This girl of mine, I really love the intelligence of my little freckles.
POV Laura:
- A gay pride parade in Luna Nova? I thought it was interesting, we've never had one of these for fear of being rejected by the students. Look, I don't see a problem in planning this parade for the end of the year party, but for that you'll have to get a signa... - said the director until I put several sheets of paper on the table and complete the director's sentence.
- Ture, I asked each student to sign, I'm already planning this, Principal Holbrooke, and I also got some teachers to sign, with the exception of Anne Finnelan, who I didn't even ask her to sign, who, amazingly? She would be very against this, but let's not call the boys Appleton here, because it is just between us, that's why I thought more about the students who are lesbians, bisexuals, who are still in the closet, to show that this academy is a safe place for people who just want to be themselves.
- Very well Miss McLaren, so I give you total freedom to make the preparations for this parade, but know that anything that happens is your responsibility, so make sure it's done right.
- Now that we have the authorization to do this, I'll call some girls to help me with the organization - I say confidently, after leaving some papers, I just leave the office, taking the cardboard rolls with me after presenting what I had planned.
I return with Bern to our room and obviously Professor Finnelan approaches us, she arrives all intimidating, trying to destroy our plan already bowing imposingly to stare at me angrily and slowly walking forward, I swore that old woman was going to punch me, but luckily no, she just turned around and stared at me with disgust.
- You won't make it, Laura McLaren, I'll do everything I can to make sure your parade doesn't work out, I'll make your life a living hell, I don't want you to perform such immorality in this academy, even more so because it will make the heads of the poor thinking heads in this place who still think they can be such atrocities? - she said, until I interrupted the annoying old woman.
- And you lose your job if you get in the way, so I really want you to get in the way, just do it Anne Finnelan, do everything you can to make sure it doesn't happen, if you try to take me down I'll stand up, know that your stupid imposingness won't stop anyone from being comfortable the way they want to be, know that I don't care about you, know that I will do it one way or another and it will still be an event of proportions that no one has ever seen before, you can be sure - I say all confidently with my arms crossed which makes her get all angry and walk backwards and then turn around and walk out of there.
- Be warned Laura McLaren, don't think that you will make this academy become a place full of immorality, promiscuity, sodomy and fetish, your presence will be the ruin of Luna Nova, I hope you know that one day this place becomes a ruin don't come saying that I didn't warn any student here, don't come feeling like it's not your fault, because we both know who's at fault for this - she said, just walking away while I just shrugged and headed for my room next to Bern's.
We soon got there and I put my things away, just threw myself on the bed and soon my cabbage came next to me to lie down, she immediately looks at me and I look at her, we kissed and then she will give me a lecture, since I gave a hidden middle finger to the teacher and I have no doubt that she noticed.
- Courageous you Laura, I was proud of how confident you always are like that love, I would have broken there, but you don't fall for anything, I am amazed by that, nothing shakes you and you just stay calm, that's magnificent Laura... I wish I could be like that, really... Sometimes it is good to be a person without filter and that speaks in the can, but sometimes it is also bad, because I have to endure all this rudeness and debauchery in a person - she said, already starting to talk about me that I am a debauchee... How I hate that, I only speak with sincerity and sincerity.
- I'm not debauched - I say inflating my cheeks until she starts to tickle me and I burst out laughing.
- Yes, she is, debauched and cute, my cute freckles - she said tickling me while I giggled.
- Stop! I am not hahah - I say trying to escape, but it was too late Caventickles attacked me.
POV Narrator:
Laura and Bernadette are tickling each other for quite a while, until they decide to move on to something else when Cavendish touches McLaren's chest and from there the two embark on making their relationship one with plenty of love and affection, and also plenty of sex. A full day for the McLaren Cavendish couple that began with Paul Hanbridge blackmailing them and then ended with the Irishwoman getting permission to have the LGBT pride parade in Luna Nova, the one that would be the first of the entire academy.
See you, Blackmailed witches...
