I'm Angela, and I'm an over-achieving control freak.
MJ is my best friend and roommate; Mary Jane technically, but she hates that, so she's MJ instead. She's an overachieving control freak like me. We met freshman year. Two former high school valedictorians and athletic stars who are currently overachieving our way through one of the top east coast colleges. I'm overachieving in a design program, she's overachieving in the business school.
It didn't start out so well between us initially however; we immediately identified each other as potential rivals for dorm floor dominance, until half way through frosh year we realized how silly that was, and how much we actually had in common. That's when we became best buds.
We aren't completely alike however......
I'm black and a city girl; intense and expressive in my look; neat cornrows, big brown eyes, hip skin art and colorful in-your face jewelry. I'm big, but not fat, and have an intimidating physical presence..
MJ is a small town girl, and she is just gorgeous. Thick dirty-blond hair, super-pretty face dominated by piercing green eyes. Flawless, almost translucent skin like one of those 16th century European rich girls from the paintings.
She also has strikingly beautiful hands - long slender fingers and perfectly shaped nails. I always notice people's hands, and I love hers.
Our friendship has deepened and we've ended up as roommates again this, our Junior year. We've begun to get bolder in talking about personal things. Recently, there's been more and more talk about sex. We both are somewhat experienced, but neither of us has ever been slutty.
To be frank, we both love to fuck, but the problem is with the boys around campus here and back at home. I say "boys", because that's what they seem like to me; Man bodies, man cocks, but boy brains.
We both could always have the pick of whatever guys we wanted in high school. We were not the desperate girls hoping someone would ask us out. If we wanted a guy, we would just take him - even if he was someone else's boyfriend. ESPECIALLY if he was someone else's boyfriend.
As you're probably starting to understand, MJ and I like to exert our dominance on others; especially guys. Sometimes we even enjoy spicing things up with a little humiliation. People need to know where they stand in relation to intense girls like us.
Which brings us to a week ago. MJ goes missing overnight Thursday and finally shows up around 10:30 a.m Friday.
I'm sitting on my bed with my nose in my books when she bursts through our door with unusually mussed up hair and messy makeup. It appears that she has somehow lost her bra. She is grinning ear to ear and her cheeks are as flushed as I'd ever seen them. She has fire in her eyes, and a look of smug satisfaction.
I take one look, and let out a hearty guffaw.
"Damn girl," I blurt out between belly laughs, "I'm not sure what all happened to you last night, but I'm damned interested to find out!"
She plops onto her back on her bed and lets out a long sigh, staring dreamily at the ceiling. Yup, she's definitely braless. I see her nipples poking through her blouse.
And do I suddenly smell sex in this room?
"Well Angie, you know how we've been talking about feeling kinda um.......frustrated?......"
I nod.
She continues; "....well I'm not frustrated today!" Her voice cracks a little with enthusiasm.
"So you met mister right?"
She laughs; "Well.......not exactly......"
"Oh my god! You finally found a real man at this lame-ass school and had a crazy one-nighter?"
"Well not exactly that, either...but I can tell you that it was no one-nighter; I'm definitely going back for more." I close my book and look up. I am seriously intrigued now.
"Did sweet little Mary Jane get herself a fuck buddy?" She hops off her bed, comes to mine, and takes my hands in hers. Her face is a few inches from mine.
"Ok.....ok....I'll tell you....but don't judge me ok?" Now I am really curious.
"You know Tracy; that gorgeous junior girl from my advanced Econ class?"
I replied, "You mean pretty over-achiever like us Tracy?"
"Yeah, her..." She replies; "Well, she told me about this "thing'...."
"Um, ok...and so...? This "thing"?
"Well she does this "thing"; actually they call it a "method", with a guy or sometimes a few guys or even girls - you know that stupid "50 shades" business?" We look down at "50 shades", because it claims to be about dominance, but girls like MJ and I know about dominance in the real world.
"Bondage?!? You're into bondage now?" She exhales and fake rolls her eyes..
"Well no, not exactly. But I kinda guess maybe. It's not like the fake shit you see on the internet, or just about ball gags or leather or whips or "hurt me, hurt me" or that lame ass shit. It's more.....psychological..."
"Are you ok, MJ? Is someone fucking with your head? You know sometimes it's the smart girls that are most vulnerable......"
"No, no; chill. t's not like that. It's kinda like choosing to let go of control, but also still being in control, and in a safe situation. It's safe; don't worry. It's hot, but I'm not a naive idiot"
"So you're somehow getting off on getting tied up and letting some random dungeon master and his friends use you?"
"NOOOOO....arghhhh!" she said in mock exasperation. "I told you; it's not like that lame ass movie. The guys are people you've seen around campus, maybe even had a class with, but I'm sworn to secrecy." she giggles. "And there are lots of students involved."
She continues; " So Tracy heard about if from her friend Jaz; you know that super amazing senior that we both have a girl crush on? Well, Jaz has been onto this since she was a sophomore. and does she look like a Stockholm syndrome victim to you?"
"So it's safe?" She nods.
"And you might do it again" She nods enthusiastically and says; "No, I WILL do it again, maybe even tonight."
"Um, would I....um...also like it, do you think. MJ?" I am surprised to hear those words come out of my mouth.
"I don't know. It's not for everyone. And...they, um...vet people pretty closely."
"They, "vet" people?"
