I had not even properly digested the fact that I had slept with Connor, that he had massaged me or he had promised with a next time of hot, passionate sex calling the last one a mere ‘warm up‘
It had been my secret, my little cherished memory even if part of me felt guilty for fucking the brother of the man I truly wanted.
And not even hours later, somehow strangers were already aware of it.
A few of the comments were funny saying that it was just a couple doing couple things‘ but a lot of them weren’t funny at all. Several of them were already calling me nasty things that made me put the phone face down on the bed and look at the ceiling and take a careful breath.
“It’s probably just a phase,” Jane said, trying to pacify me. “People will move on, you know how it is, tomorrow there’ll be something else. Frankly, I wasn’t even going to tell you that but figured I should.”
“Somebody’s going to figure out it’s me,” I said, my voice now having an edge of panic.
“They might not. The image is pretty blurry if you don’t zoom in and most people aren’t going to do that.” Even she didn’t sound convinced with those words leaving her mouth.
“Jane.” I looked at her. “I’m fucked, aren’t I?”
She pressed her lips together. “Maybe,” she said quietly. “But knowing Sandra, she will post a few more pictures and then everybody will have moved onto it I guess. And I totally am with you. You deserve to have fun with whoever you want as long as it’s consensual.”
“It was Connor,” I said.
She blinked a few times, processing that information.
“Oh wow. I thought it was the masseur… when did he even get here?” She asked but before I could answer, she raised her hand after noticing my distress. “But you know what? It doesn’t matter. Nobody gets to define who you give your virginity to.”
She said defiantly and those words somehow made me feel even worse.
I wasn’t some girl who cherished her virginity like some forbidden fruit but I had hoped to only have sex with the one who was going to be my forever after.
And Connor…he had a history of one night stands and flings.
“So what? I bet you had a good time.” She gave my shoulder a squeeze. It was fascinating how supportive she was given the fact that I had barely started my fake dating thing with Connor. She and Olivia knew my crush on Aaron as well.
“Do you think I did something wrong?” I asked, biting my lower lip.

“Of course not. You are young and single. You have been buried in books all your life so you deserve to have some fun.”
“I did have fun” I said, recalling the way Connor
“Then that’s what matters. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for that.”
“Connor’s face isn’t in the picture,” I said. “His back is to the window. Nobody knows it’s him. They just see me and they see…a girl in ecstasy…” I picked the phone back up and looked at the comments again, the ones asking who the slut was, and the ones with the explicit suggestions.
“They see me.”
My own feed was quickly filling up with people I knew vaguely from school or other packs with almost everyone asking a variety of the same question.
I put the phone down and got up and changed out of my robe.
“What are you doing?” Jane asked.
“I’m going to talk to Sandra,” I said.
“Sienna, what are you even going to talk to her about?”
“She needs to take it down,” I said, pulling on my jeans and a top, my hands moving fast to grab my shoes. “Or re–upload without the background. It’s a simple task. She doesn’t even have to explain it.”
“And if she won’t?”
I put my shoes on and looked at Jane and said nothing because we both already knew the answer to that and saying it out loud wasn’t going to help.
“Well then I’m coming with you” Jane said and we headed outside.
It was already quite late so I figured they must not be in their rooms. I found a staff member carrying a tray of drinks and asked.
“Have you seen Sandra Thompson?”
The server nodded. “Yes, the group is currently in the VIP dining suite. You can follow me if you wish.”
We nodded and followed him to the dining suite which was warm and filled with the mean girls laughing and chatting with each other.
The table had been dressed with beautiful candles, good glassware, and food that smelled extraordinary.
My stomach rumbled as the aroma drifted towards me, reminding me I had barely eaten anything throughout the day.
Sandra and her friends lounged around the massive spread, glasses clinking and still taking pictures every five seconds.

Jane inched closer to me. “You say what you want to and then we are leaving for the day. I’ll look for a cab in the meantime.”
I gave her a brief nod and walked towards Sandra who was laughing at something Camille had said. Marcus hovered near the table with his hands folded behind his back and managing the fleet of servers to ensure no plate or glass stays empty,
I cleared my throat to announce my arrival and Sandra finally looked at me.
“Sienna!” Sandra’s voice was warm and smooth as butter. “Come join us, we’ve been enjoying a bit too much and I forgot about you and your friend”
“I need to talk to you,” I said urgently. “For a second.”
“Of course, sit down, have you eaten? Marcus, can we get another plate of honey glazed chicken?”
Marcus nodded and immediately snapped his fingers to make a server run back to the kitchen.
“Acutally, I wanted to talk about your post,” I said.
She took a small pause, looking surprised.
“My post?” Sandra picked up her wine glass. “Which one?”
“The one from earlier with you and the girls in the garden pictures.”
“Oh, weren’t they lovely?” Camille said, looking at all her friends. “The light and the greenery was so beautiful”
