Downfall/Ask her something specific you want to know 1

From Create Your Own Story

"When was the first time you made out with someone?" you ask.

Julianne waits so long with an answer, you think you pushed too far. But she answers.

"It was back in high school, a few months before Jennifer and I became friends." Jennifer is one of your mother's best friends. She lives in another state, but once or twice a year she comes to visit for a few days. "I was invited to a party of the cool kids. I wasn't one of their clique, I don't even know why I was invited. And I don't know why I went, because I expected they'd somehow make fun of me. You know?"

As a redhead, you know. She never told you there was a time she was bullied in school, too, once, before she managed to hook up with the cool kids.

"They were all nice to me, the whole time, just like they decided to treat me differently than before. That was no surprise. We all know how it goes; they lull you in a false sense of security before they pull their stunt. When they announced we'd be playing seven minutes in heaven, I knew that was when it would happen. I was the first to get into the closet. They blindfolded me and had me wait in there."

"You played along?"

"What choice did I have? You think they would have let me leave. The fatality of the unavoidable." She laughs. "I was frozen when the door opened. It took so long I thought they had someone hidden to send into the closet. The birthday girl's brother - they called him simple pimple, he had the worst acne. Or maybe their family dog; wouldn't that have been a laugh? But I recognized her instantly when she sat down next to me."

"She?"

Julianne shushes you. "I knew her perfume; I had in my nose all evening. She stroked my face and then kissed me. We kissed for the whole time, and I tell you, seven minutes can pass very fast. When they collected us and asked what we did, Jennifer told them we didn't do anything, and so did I."

"Jennifer?" you start, but Julianne interrupts you.

"Enough now, Sweetie. We need to sleep."

And you do. You thought you'd be unable to sleep after what you just heard, but the next moment you're far away.
