The Edge Of Us

Dakota wants to watch Zazie fuck other women. Wants the pictures sent, proof of betrayal dripping across her screen. They've been together too many years for Zazie to pretend anymore. She knows what's happening, what Dakota's jerking off to at night. Another stranger's tongue inside her girlfriend. Someone else's hands on the body Zazie gives away to keep Dakota close. Every request cuts deeper but she sends it anyway. She says yes when everything in her screams no. The truth chokes her when she opens her mouth. Dakota's getting off on her girlfriend becoming someone else's property for a few minutes. Someone who won't even remember her name tomorrow. Zazie stares at these photos she's forced to take of her own body violated and wonders when exactly she stopped existing for herself. The silence between them tastes like rust. She's dying for someone to take her away from all this, but the only escape she can see leads straight through the same door she's already walked through a thousand times. Each time feeling less like herself.
