From a very young age, Jessica learned that she enjoyed being in control. Whether it was having others rely on her, or being the connection her friends used to get ahead in life, she always knew that was her purpose in life.

To have others beneath her.

It was why she even wanted to be a model. Models were respected, envied and sought out. So far, it was working. Her friends, or followers, whichever you prefer to call them, were submissive and complacent. She stated something and it was fact, she joked about something and it was the funniest thing of the day.

But, one person had yet to understand her superiority. That one nerd, Aily. She first noticed the geek when the two of them were placed in a group project together, a few years back.

"Hey," she had called out then. "So, what was your name again?"

The girl had been spaced out, looking down at nowhere.

"Sorry, what?"

This was new.

"I asked for your name."

"Oh, uh, Aily, and you?" The raven-haired girl asked with a smile. Even back then Jess had been savvy enough to know the smile was forced.

"Jessica. Jessica Star." The usual look of "OH SHIT, THAT'S WHO I WAS TALKING TO?" didn't appear. Instead, the girl nodded and went:

"It's nice to meet you."

From that day on, Jess continued to try and try to gain the girl's attention. If only to prove that her reaction had been a fluke. But no. Time and time again, Aily would basically act like Jess was the last thing on her mind.

And in Jess' world, that was not acceptable.

So, if she couldn't gain her attention by being the awesome person she was, she'd get it through other means. She started at first, by making fun of how she dressed as she passed. Then, she would encourage others to join in, mocking her at any point available.

At the end of the day, all it achieved was making Aily sad. Well, Jess considered, that was a slight victory. At least now Jess was a factor. But it always stayed with her, why did the girl randomly spend her time looking at nothing? Why did she refuse to associate with people? Jess wasn't stupid. It wasn't like naturally shy people didn't exist to her, but with Aily things had always seemed different. Every time she or someone else tried to engage her in a conversation, she didn't seem to be that awkward.

She thought maybe the girl had some sort of weird disease or something that she didn't want people to know about.

Oh, oh had Jess been wrong. And being wrong had never felt so good.

After catching Aily in the act, every tendency inside of Jess had lit up. She found herself incredibly grateful for having the blessed mind that made it her first instinct to take multiple pictures of the girl and record a few clips before she interrupted her.

The things she could make Aily do with this, it was like something out of her best dreams.

Kissing her hadn't even been something she thought of in advance. It just sort of happened. Aily looked so vulnerable, and to her credit, though it was clear she hadn't worked out a day in her life, even as flabby as she was she still looked good. Her curves were accentuated just enough to make up for some of the fat she hid under those hoodies.

So, when her eyes lowered to the girl's lips, she said: "why not?" Even though she'd only had a few drunken moments with girls before, nothing quite as serious as what had happened between them.

But now, she was definitely heading down the serious path.

"Maybe I should finger her myself..." She thought as she paced down the empty halls of their college, where the students had all left in anticipation of some concert that was going on at that moment. "Maybe I'll make her lick her own juices." Every thought got her more excited than the last.

Her phone buzzed in her pocket.
