MeFuN case #003598

Jo

“Since, it is my choice and you asked, Fortnite!” I said with enthusiasm. You should have seen his face. It was like he had bitten into something very sour. I almost immediately started laughing. I just could not keep a straight face.

“Just joking.” I told him. He seemed almost hurt from my teasing, so I grabbed his arm and looked into his eyes. “I’m sorry, Jason.” I said sincerely “I have never played that game before. I only have a working knowledge of it.” I explained

He seemed relieved that I had only been joking about playing the game. “I have played some Skyrim before, so let’s try that” I suggested.

We loaded the game and I named my character “Lirla Fangtwister”

“Where did you come up with that name?” Jason asked

“Well, Lirla sounds pretty. And Fangtwister is a nickname she had received from the Argonian (lizardman) she had met near the black marsh. She had been there and saved him from an attacking troll. The “saving” had involved twisting a fang out of the monster’s mouth. The nickname stuck.” I explained, making up a backstory.

“Wow… you do know a bit about this game.” He acknowledged

I played it for a while, including a battle encounter with some slavers. Jason was kind enough to point out some spell combination, which improved my damage abilities.

“Thanks” I told him “Now let’s play a game you like?” I suggested.

“I can join this game” He said as he turned on another gaming computer next to me. In a minute or two, his character had joined my character.

“Go this way” Jason said as his character ran into the wilderness. "There is an abandoned fort. Near Dragon Bridge. Or it was formerly abandoned. I need to... retrieve something from there”

My character followed until I reached a river. “Just cross it” Jason instructed.

So my character ran into the river. Suddenly, all my character’s clothing was wet, and transparent! Jason starts laughing.

“What is going on?” I asked alarmed

“A glitch in the program.” He laughed.

“My character is naked!” I gasped in horror

“A little payback for the Fortnite joke” Jason said in defense

“Ok… I guess I deserved that” I giggle. “What do I do now?” I asked

"I'll join you" Jason said and he ran his character into the river too. His character was naked too.

“Your guy looks pretty good naked!” I commented and looked over to Jason.

“So does yours!” Jason added as he looked over to me. We were now looking at each other. Our eyes locked. There was definitely some chemistry between us. Both of us did not say anything for a few seconds.

“It seems hot in here” I said and grabbed my water and took a drink.

“Yes” Jason agreed as he drank some of his tea.

I took a deep breath and said “Shall we keep playing? I have never played a naked character in this game before!”
 
There was something different about Jo, not only was she smart, funny, and confident. She was just so much different from all the women I had met before and that intrigued me. Of course, the fact that she wasn't bad at playing my favorite game and could make up a backstory on the spot was even more fascinating.

I looked at the screen, opened the map and placed a marker on the fort, and gave her a smile, "Well I did need to go to the fort, Meridia's beacon directed me to this place, but I don't like doing the quests for a fire sword. But I can gift it to you, then you will have a good sword to play with."

We moved out of the river and since she created her character to closely resemble herself, it was quite a nice back view for a few moments until the glitch recovered and we were back in our armor.

"What happened?" She sounded a little disappointed.

"The glitch only lasts when you stay in the vicinity of the river, I only came across it by accident."

What I didn't tell her, was that there were mods that I had downloaded that can make characters not only appear make and stay naked, but with the right spells and situations, you could have sex.

We came to the fort and immediately Necromancers and skeletons attacked us. It was almost two hours later when we finished with the quest and received the sword. I had to admit, it was a lot of fun to have somebody to play with, her comments and jokes made it quite an interesting experience. After dividing the loot, I dropped the sword for her to pick up.

It was then that I checked my watch, "Ah darn it, a client is going to . . ."

My phone rang and I quickly logged out my character after saving and answering the call, getting up, and walking out of the room.
 
Jo
I knew Jason needed to work and I had taken up too much of his time. I saved the game, so my character would have the flaming sword for the tournament tomorrow. I logged off and wrote Jason a nice note thanking him for the fun afternoon. Also, I provided him the address of my rental house, so he could pick me up tomorrow for the dive over to the tournament.

I really felt good about the day, and had a good time. Sometimes working for MeFun seemed like work, and other times it was the easiest way to make money you can imagine. Today with Jason seemed like the later.

I walked past Jason as he talked on the phone to return our drinking glasses to his sink. I waved goodbye and mouthed a “I had a great time and thank you” to him. He had a worried look on his face, like he had made a mistake by answering the phone. So, I walked over to him and kissed his cheek. “Thanks, I had fun.” I whispered to him. Then I walked out the door and rode off. I noticed him watching me as he continued to talk on the phone.

When I got home, I practice some more on Skyrim, and looked up a few hints online. That was when I found the website that explained how to have sex with other characters in the game! I thought that might be a fun surprise for when Jason and I were alone!

I went to bed, and the next morning prepared for the tournament. I went ahead with my plan, to dress casually, in a loose T-shirt and sweat pants. Then I waited for Jason’s arrival.
 
Jason

She kissed me on the cheek, a sweet, innocent kiss on the cheek.
I knew I was staring, but sometimes I could not believe that something like that could happen to me.
It did, just now. Jo, the woman with the strange accent and what appeared to be a really great personality, actually kissed me on the cheek and said she had fun.

After finishing my call, I found that she had taken our glasses to the kitchen and left me a note, repeating what she had said and providing me with her address. Which meant she still wanted to go to the tournament and she wanted me to go pick her up. I gnawed on my thumbnail for a moment, wondering if there was a way out of it, there will be a lot of people and the perfect opportunity to do it to me again. I could feel the panic starting and for a long moment, I had to force my breathing to slow down before I could start hyperventilating.

"Just keep your distance Jason, as long as you keep your distance, they can't do it again. They can't hurt you if you keep your distance."

I turned and went to my office to start on the request from the client and to finish setting up the computer that we would need for Jo. It was early evening when I went to bed, the work done, the PCs and gear packed into the car and all was ready.

The next morning I got up, exercised, packed the cooler box with snacks, cool drinks, and food then finished up with a shower. I dressed casually in sneakers, jeans, and a t-shirt, taking a hoodie with me as I got into the car and drove to the address, which was actually a block away and if I were not mistaken, was actually available for rent or sale. I stopped outside the house and looked at the front door, not sure what to expect and actually much more certain that it will not open.

But it did open and I had to look twice, yes it was Jo, but she wore nondescript clothing, almost like she was hiding that very sexy body of hers, which I guess she was since she was going to a convention where 90% of the people will be guys. I got out of the car and walked around it, to open her door for her, "Hey, how are you today? You ready to get your game on?"
 
Jo
Jason seemed excited and I blew it right off the bat with my reply.

“I guess so. As ready as I will ever be” I replied with a serious lack of confidence and excitement. Jason walked to the driver’s side and shook his head a bit as he got into the car.

“What?” I asked.

“Well, you don’t sound very confident” He commented.

“You are right. I’m not.” I agreed with his analysis then I explained “I don’t want to let you down.”

“This is not about winning, is about having fun.” Jason told me. “You are so good looking and have such a great personality, you can get along with anyone. I think you are going to have fun.” He concluded.

“Thank you for the nice comments.” I said glowing “But I don’t get along with everyone. I know if we are playing together, I will have fun. But you are right, let me get my head screwed on better" I said and shook my head.

"Ok, Let's start this conversation over. To answer your question: Hell yes, Game on!” I said with excitement and confidence.

The tournament hall

The fluorescent lighting was not my favorite, but they had dimmed it so people could see their computer screens better. The white tiled floor had a large azure rug on it. This was great to reduce the noise and reflected light. There was a series of tables set up and Jason knew which table to sit at. I followed him carrying one of the computers and a monitor.

I did get some looks by some of the guys there. I was not sure, if it was because I was new, or they were checking me out. But so far so good.

“So how does this all work?” I asked Jason as I set up my computer.
 
Jason

I started to set up the two computers, linking them to the LAN through the provided cables. I started up the computers and turned to Jo. I know that a few guys had been looking at her, but it was very seldom that you see a new female gamer joining in and she is not really a gamer, but any willing participant is welcome.

"OK, so for the Skyrim arena, we are logged into a central server, we start off with new characters and have a set time to buy a house and gain as much gold as we can. That is the competition, but if you want, you can just sign up to just game and not be part of the competition."

I saw one of my friends moving closer and gave him a smile, he hurried closer. He first nodded at Jo, paused and stared for a second, and then turned to me, "Did you bring it?"

I patted his shoulder, "Henry this is Jo, Jo this is Henry, one of those guys who bullied me into coming today."

He flushed, "Hey!"

But turned to Jo and nodded, "Pleasure to meet you, Jo. I hope you enjoy the tournament."

He turned back to me and I nodded, "In the car, it should be enough."

"Great!" He took the keys I held up and hurried away.

I shook my head, "Yes, he is an odd little duck, but a Minecraft master. I had to bring a few refreshments along, usually, we pool together, and that way we don't need to pay astronomical entrance fees to cover food and drinks."

I motioned for her to follow me, "So you are going to play Skyrim then? Casual or Competitive?"
 
Jo

“I think we should join the skyrim competition. I think it will be a good learning experience for me.” I explained.

“Ok” Jason agreed as he signed us up for the skyrim competition.

“Henry seems nice. Did any of your friends bring stuff to eat?” I asked. It seemed weird Jason was bringing food for all his friends. Maybe it was just his turn.

Before Jason could answer, two people walked over to our table. A tall thin man, with small eyes and a goatee and a short Hispanic woman with black hair and too much makeup on and bright red lipstick. Jason sighed as they approached.

“You are going to lose” The man declared.

“Jo, this is Dante Talbot and his friend Gail Lobo” Jason introduced, ignoring the man’s statement.

“Nice to meet you two” I said with a friendly, chipper voice.

“Is this your sister?” Gail asked Jason.

“No” I answered for Jason. Then I wrapped my arm around Jason's and said "He is my boyfriend!" Gail looked over to me and I could tell she was surprised by my answer. I also could tell that I did not like her.
 
Jason

The moment Jo wrapped her arm around mine, I froze. Was this it? The moment I have been fearing? And then she said that she was my girlfriend or more that I was her boyfriend, but that means the same thing anyway. I could see that everybody in earshot was shocked, it was clear that Jo was new in town, she did not know what that statement meant. She leaned in to kiss my cheek and whispered softly, "Please play along."

Ah! That made sense!

I cleared my throat, "I thought we were going to keep it on the down-low?"

She smiled at me as she realized that I was going along with it, damn she had a lovely smile, why haven't I noticed it before?

"Well, I think they can know, don't you agree?", she looked at them, "They are your friends after all."

God, I loved her at that moment, not only did she shock them into silence, she put them right on the spot in front of the others. I smiled and nodded, "Of course, friendly competition is a good thing, don't you agree Dante?"

He muttered something and turned away, Gail gave Jo a glare and then followed him. This was no small victory for me, the competition between Dante and myself was anything but friendly, if I ever had a nemesis, he was the closest thing I could have to one. I had to contain myself from swooping Jo up and doing a victory jig. I leaned in closer to her and whispered, "Thank you."
 
Jo

Jason whispered “thank you” in my ear as the two annoying people walked away. I decided I needed more at this point and went for it. I gently grabbed Jason’s face so he could not get away and then I kissed him full on the lips.

It was not my best kiss ever, but it was not bad. I could feel Jason resisting a bit at first, but then he let the pleasure of our lips moving against each other take him away. It got more passionate as my hands moved to his shoulders and his hands were on mine. He pulled me closer. It was great. Then we separated and each of us needed to take a breath to re-center ourselves.

“Jason, how dare you kiss your sister!” I teased him.

“You started it” he declared in his defense.

I got serious for a moment “I know, and it was wonderful” I told him sincerely. “Now let’s kick some ass” I said as I sat down in front of my computer.

2 hour later

I wish I could report a Hollywood ending, but Jason and I did not kick ass at Skyrim. Jason did well, but I was dragging the team down. We almost lost both our matches, but Jason was able to over come my lower gold count, with his excellent play. The good news is we made it to the third round. That was a lot further then I thought we’d make.

“Jason, sorry I have not been helping as much. I’ll trying to pick up my game” I told him.

“Just have fun, remember” Jason reminded me.

“I’d have more fun, if you kissed me again” I asked him.

“What! My Sister! Yuck” He joked. But he leaned over and we kissed. It was one of those high school kisses, we just kissed and kissed and kissed. My hands moving slowly over his arms and back, his hands finding my slim waist and hips. Finally we had to stop as the next match was about to start.
 
Jason

I did not know what had gotten into me, I never would have even thought of kissing Jo, much less even spending time with her. And even now that it had happened, I could not believe it. Spending time with her was fun, she was not one of those women who used her looks to get her through life, she was funny and smart and knew how to set not only me but the people around her at ease with her quips and puns.

And damn did she taste good when we kissed. This was a dream and in my past experience, I knew that a shoe would be dropping, the only question was when. The next match started and I used my trading tricks to help Jo gain money faster, it did mean that I had to work double as hard as normal, but it was fun to help her and through that increased the standing of our team. We barely missed the cutoff point, but I had to laugh because Dante and Gail also failed, but I didn't mention it.

I grinned at Jo as I took off my headset, "Well, now you can imagine what the rest of the weekend is going to be like, games games games."
 
Jo

“The one role playing game I’m really enjoying right now is playing your girlfriend” I told Jason as I grabbed him and kissed him again. He was a bit surprised by my answer “Shall we take a break and grab some lunch?” I asked

“Sure” he said.

Jason had some snacks, cool drinks, and food stored that his friends had not gotten too yet. We decided to sit outside under a tree and enjoy our lunch there. We were getting along so good, that I felt I could ask Jason a bit about his troubled past. I was worried, that it might be too soon, but I decided to ask.

“Jason, I hope I was not too forward with the whole boyfriend-girlfriend thing. But I like you and I hope you like me. I kind of thought we were at least on a date anyhow, so I hope that was, ok?” I asked

“It was more than ok” Jason replied

“I’m glad” I said with a smile. “I have been meaning to ask you something. You seem worried around some people. Did something happen to you? If you don’t want to talk about it, I understand”
 
Jason

I was not sure if she was acting for the show and if she meant it. So far the shoe had not dropped and Jo had seemed to genuinely care and to enjoy herself as well. I took a long sip of my juice and leaned back against the tree we were seated under.

She said that she had studied psychology, could that be why she asked? To see if she could get a way to really drive the dagger home, or was she the real deal? I sighed and searched my pockets, realizing that I had quit smoking a while ago. So perhaps I should tell her? It was common knowledge, well in my circle it was.

"Not some people. Beautiful women."

I gave her a slight smile, "So yeah, the first time you showed up, you probably saw it very clearly."

I opened a packet of chips to still my nerves and started eating them slowly, "It happened in high school. I never told anybody who wasn't there to experience it. So most of the people inside that building know about this."

I chewed on the crisps and took a sip of the juice, "I was a true geek back then, not that things are different now, but then it also had the awkwardness of being a teenager to go with it. This one girl, Melanie, started making advances on me. I mean no girl would even look at me, so it was quite a surprise when one of the prettiest girls in school started to talk with me."

I gave a nervous chuckle, "So things escalated quite fast and she invited me to her house. I showed up and she opened the door dressed in basically nothing. She pulled me inside and started making out with me, we stumbled towards the living room, where she got really into it, stripping off my clothes, taking off her own, and when she had me down to my underwear . . . "

I paused then and closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and then carried on, "Then they burst into the room, laughing, whistling, and clamoring. Melanie stood there in her hot pants and bra, smirking at me as the television got switched on and the footage from hidden cameras started showing. I got pinned down on the couch and forced to watch and listen to their laughter and ridicule. It felt like ages before they allowed me to get away and it took two days for the entire school to see the footage. It followed me for the rest of my high school career and to this day, any beautiful woman that shows the slightest interest in me fills me with dread."

I crumpled up the empty packet and took a deep breath, then I looked at her, "Even now."
 
Jo

I was totally overwhelmed and in shock by what Jason told me. What happened to him was terrible. It was a form a sexual violence, of sexual abuse. If I ever met this Melanie, I’d give her a piece of my mind. What a total BITCH. I felt so bad for Jason and knew I needed to say something to him.

“Jason, what they did to you was horrible! How were you able to deal with it? I mean that is some major physiological trauma.” I said. Jason just gave me a shoulder shrug.

“What happened to you is so hard, so difficult to deal with. It is amazing you were able to even talk or trust anyone.” I said in compassion. Jason did not say anything to me. He was just looking off into the distance.

My mind recalled the signs of sexual trauma in a person. Avoidance of and decrease in emotional and physical intimacy, Isolation, Feelings of helplessness, Feelings of sadness, and increase in anxiety. Jason had shown all these signs. I thought it was from bullying, but now I knew it was from this trauma. The best treatment was time. He would over come that event, but it would take time. I reached out and grabbed his leg. Then I told him.

“Jason, I’m here for you. Both emotionally and physically. And by physically, I mean being present for you. Listening to you. I want to help you rebuild, to fight back, and repair your trust in people, or more specifically trust in women.” I explained to him. "I'm not going anywhere" I said with all my heart.

But was I being honest? After Jason and I sleep together, I was supposed to break it off. I was confused about my feelings toward Jason, my MeFuN job, but not about helping Jason.
 
"I will not lie, I fell into some very bad habits for a while after school. I tried to hide it, but sometimes it filtered through. Drugs, alcohol, self-harm . . . "

I shrugged again, "The final vice that I could get rid of, was smoking. It was a hard, uphill battle to drag myself out of the pit. The first stage for me was to find a way to work and to generate an income with what I had studied, so when I found a job that allowed me to work from home, that was my saving grace. Back in those days, I would not have been able to work with people. It's better now, but I still prefer working in the comfort of my home."

I looked at her as her hand took hold of my leg, "I really don't mean any offense to you, you seem like a kind, generous and caring person. But you have to agree that you are very beautiful and I am just a normal, plain-looking guy. There's no reason for you, as a stranger to actually want to help me or even be interested in me."

I smiled slightly, "But I will admit, this "date" has been one of the most entertaining and fun times I had in years. Right now, I am just waiting for the shoe to drop. Logically I know that you will not do it, I can see it in your eyes and I can feel it, but back in my mind, I still wait for the cameras to come into view and the laughter to start."
 
Jo
“Jason, I agree this date has been very fun!” I said. “But about being attractive…” I started but did not finish.

I sighed for a moment. Then I opened my chip bag and ate some chips. I look around and across the street was a restaurant and I noticed three couples trying to enter. They were waiting for the hostess to return to seat them.

“Jason… look across the street at that restaurant” I told him. He looked.

“All those men are less attractive that the women.” I told him.

“I’m not sure I agree” Jason countered. “The brunette has a big butt”

“Yes, but all the men have big bellies. Come on now… really look at the men. They are not as put together as the women.” I said.

“What is your point?” Jason asked. I offered him some of my chips. He grabbed a few.

“Attractive Women would rather date a less attractive men. This is not about the man being richer, it is about a man who cares and loves you, rather than an attractive man who may be reluctant to do so. Also less attractive men trend to be more intelligent, kinder, and more appreciative of their attractive partner. Don’t sell yourself short. I like you, just the way you are.” I said. “And I meant what I said, I’m here for you”

“Are you sure? What if I was unattractive, have a bad personality, are less intelligent, and treat women horribly” Jason asked.

“That is marriage material!” I said with excitement. We both cracked up laughing.

“Hey, now that all the serious conversations are done… you want to go back in there and play skyrim just for fun? And I think there is a way to make our character have sex…” I said with a naughty little smile.
 
Jason

I looked at her, she seemed so excited to play the game and that naughty smile just fitted her perfectly, I finished my juice.

"You need mods for that, the games on the two computers are standard. So that little idea will not work and it might shock a few of the younger players."

I chuckled, "But I will admit, that I enjoy the way your mind works."

I got to my feet and held my hand to help her to her feet, "The current competition is basically done, so let's go start a new game and see how far we can get before the tournament come to an end."

Her hand felt cool and soft, but she had a surprisingly firm grip, "I have been meaning to ask you, you have this interesting accent, what is it? I can't place it."
 
Jo

“I’m from the Netherlands” I explained. “I decided to go to college out of country. I received a degree in History and Psychology three years ago. I’ve been working part-time as a Strategy Consultant to help pay for bills during college. When I did not find a job in either history or psychology, I switched to full time work as a Strategy Consultant. My work visa ends in two years so I have to make a decision where I want to live by then. In the meantime, I enjoy cycling, billiards, gardening and now hanging out with you playing Skyrim.”

We reentered the tournament building and got behind our computers. Started up Skyrim and began to play it just for fun. Jason showed me where the power leveling opportunities were for most skills. One we reached max level before I even escaped the Helgen keep!
 
"That explains it, you will most likely be the first Dutch person I have spoken to in person, I once spoke with a gamer online, but he didn't have the same accent."

I had to admit that it was quite a lot of fun to continue our adventures and just have fun. It was late evening when we called a stop, there were hamburgers, hotdogs, and salad available and I did feel a bit hungry after almost gaming the afternoon away.

"We can have something to eat and would you like to sleep over here or would you like to go home? The computers can stay here if you want me to take you home."

I motioned to the doors leading to an adjoining room, "There's the female bunking area if you would like to sleep over."
 
Jo

“How about a home cooked meal at my house?” I offered Jason.

“Yes” He agreed quickly.

“That was a quick answer. Especially, since you have not tasted my cooking yet!" I warned him with a smile.

“I think I have nothing to worry about” Jason answered after seeing my smile.

As we headed out to Jason’s car, our path crossed Dante Talbot and Gail Lobo. I quickly grabbed Jason’s waist and pulled him in for a passionate kiss. I heard a small snort from Gail as they walked by.

Then we continued to walk to Jason’s car. Out of ear shot of those two dingdongs, I said to Jason “It is fun pissing those two off.” I giggled

We drove to my place. I provided Jason a drink, and some appetizers as I made a nice meal. Diner was a bubbly pan of spinach and sausage lasagna, garlic beard, and a nice salad. For after dinner, I had a nice cheese cake with strawberries on top. I thought it all tasted really good.

We had a great time talk about what had happened today, and other unimportant things. I gave him a nice good night kiss and told him I’d be ready tomorrow morning with my game face on!

The Next Morning

I decided I could dress a little less modestly, with a tight t-shirt, skinny jeans and a sweater in case it got cool. I was waiting outside when Jason came to pick me up.

Jason

The evening was much better than I had expected, Jo was a very gracious hostess and boy did she know how to make a good meal. The conversation was light and fun, there were none of the maudlin feelings of our lunchtime conversation. I of course kept my distance, it was an unfamiliar house with a beautiful woman. One of my worst nightmares. But I left unscathed and went home. I couldn't remember ever sleeping so well like I did that night.

As I pulled up to Jo's house the next morning, she was waiting outside and dressed to kill. No, she didn't have weapons on her, unless you wanted to count her quite impressive breasts as weapons, but it was the sort of clothing that could cause a pile-up. It was tight-fitting, without being obvious and she looked absolutely fantastic. Which made me wonder, why the change? Yesterday she looked like she wanted to hide, today she is dressed more to impress than anything else.

I got out of the car, "Good morning, hope you have your healing spells ready and rings of power on."

She laughed that lovely, clear laugh of hers and gave me a peck on the cheek as she got into the car. I closed the door and thanked whatever angel is looking after me, that she wasn't wearing revealing clothing. I would most likely be a blubbering mess. The drive to the tournament building/warehouse was over way too fast, Jo was engaging and bordering on the point of being almost bubbly, I had no idea what had put her in such a good mood, but it was infectious.

I took out the frozen meat from the cooler and we went inside, I deposited the meat in the kitchen, got myself a cup of coffee, and headed towards where we were set up.
 
Skyrim/Call of Duty

Jason was so nice and brought me a cup of coffee. He placed the cup next to my keyboard and then took his seat. In front of him was the Fortnite logon screen. Again, I could not keep a straight face and started giggling.

“Very funny, Jo” Jason commented

“I just could not resist” I said back with a smile

He reached over and took my cup of coffee “Bad girl! No coffee for you.” He declared.

“Oh… come on now… I need my coffee!” I told him. By the way, there was a lot of truth behind my statement! I really do need my coffee in the morning.

Jason shook his head “no”

“I’ll do anything for that coffee” I told him with a crazed look in my eyes

“Team Skyrim and we play the Blood On The Ice quest?” He asked

“Is that the one where there are several women found dead in Windhelm, and we are tasked with the investigation of the gruesome murders?” I asked

“Yes” Jason confirmed

“Ok, Lira Fangtwister is on it” I agreed,

He placed the coffee cup back near my keyboard. I took a quick drink, just in case he took it away again! I needed my caffeine!

We had a blast roaming around the city, talking to witnesses, looking for clues, and cooperating with guards to eventually catch the murderer! I noticed something about playing that quest with Jason. We needed to trust each other to win the quest. He was starting to trust me. I had never heard of using computer games for therapy but it seemed to be working.

“Hey, we make a good team.” I said when the quest was all done. How about a little team Call of Duty?” I ask him.

“Ok” He said.

Call of Duty in team mode was very much a trust game. You needed to cover your teammate’s butt, or they would get shot. I had played it before, so I was good enough to protect Jason’s character. It worked out great. He trusted me more, and we had a blast.

It was all going well until Dante showed up. He had seen me get a second cup of coffee and I guess he liked what he saw. He came over to give Jason some shit.

“Hey Jason, how much did Jo cost you? She is a hooker, right?” He asked Jason with a leer on his face. “I think I want her next, when you are done”
 
Jason

I looked up at Dante when he made his remark, never did it occur to me that it might have been the truth. In fact, usually, you would have to pay upfront and I knew for a fact I did not, but then again . . . Andrew would. I could feel that cold dread take hold of me, but I shook it off mentally, leaned back in my chair, and gave Dante a wicked grin.

"Ah, Dante you got me. Jo is not really my girlfriend, instead, I am paying for her services."

The people around us stopped what they were doing and looked at us, Dante's smirk slowly growing and he puffed up his chest.

"But you won't be able to afford her Dante."

His face grew angry, "I earn twice as much as you."

I smiled sweetly at him, "Yes, you do. But I don't pay her with money, I pay her with attention and human interaction, things you don't have."

I raised a finger, "Oh wait, that is also called being in a relationship."

The other gamers burst out laughing and Dante's face went white as he realized that I had tricked him, "You little fucker."

He came around the table, but I was waiting for that, I came out of the chair, my hand coming up from the desk and I slapped him. HARD. The sound reverberated around the building and he staggered slightly, it was not what he had expected.

"Now you listen up Dante. Jo is a guest here, it is her first time here and God knows we have little enough female gamers. House rules state that everybody is to be treated with respect and that anybody who breaks this rule, will be thrown out. You called her a prostitute and by rights, she can lodge an official complaint as she had participated in a tournament. That will not only get you kicked out, it will also get you banned from future gatherings until she decides to withdraw her complaint."

I glared at him as he stood opposite me, his fists balled as he shook in anger.
 
Jo

All I was thinking was “OH SHIT” after Dante called me a hooker. As I explained before, Mercy Fuck Network or MeFun is not a prostitution service. The sisters provide sex for its therapeutic health benefits and its critical role in male mental health and self-image. It is like calling a pharmacist, a drug dealer. A pharmacist is providing drugs for your health. A drug dealer is providing them for your enjoyment. Both deal out drugs, but for different reasons.

But with all that said, there was no way to explain this to people and not have them think of the sisters as hookers. I did not say anything as Jason defended my honor. Dante stood there for a second, and then realized he had been defeated. He stormed off.

“WOW Jason… Thanks for defending me” I told him as I stood up and kissed his cheek. "You are the best!"

“That guy is an asshole” Jason said to me, but also to himself. “You can file a complaint on him” He reminded me.

“I don't think I will, but I was thinking about talking to Gail, about what he said.” I told him with a naughty little grin on my face.

He laughed. Then a few of the people nearby came over to Jason, patted him on the back, or shook his hand. All of them told him he did a great job. That Dante had been a jerk and needed to be told off. A few even came over to me and said that they wanted me to keep coming to the tournament. And advised me not to let one bad apple spoil the event.

I kind of felt a little like a celebrity. Finally, people cleared out and I looked over to Jason.

“Can we eat lunch... or are you going to bitch slap someone else?” I joked. As we both laughed.
 
Jason

I tried my best to hide the tremor in my hands, it was not really the adrenaline from the interaction with Dante, it was more the sudden attention from the other gamers. Their intentions were nice, but I still felt like I had not only stepped out of line, I had put myself out there and that could mean that . . . I had done a good thing. This was not the action of a horny teenager wanting to see his first set of naked breasts.

I nodded at Jo's question, "Let's have lunch."

To hide my still-trembling hands, I shoved them in my pockets as we walked to the kitchen, true to form there were hamburgers, hotdogs, salad, and drinks. I withdrew my hands and they were steady again, I breathed a slight sigh of relief and gave Jo a smile when she looked at me, shaking my head, indicating that it was nothing, and picked up a paper plate.

I built two hamburgers by adding the potato salad to the buns and patties, it looked like two towers of Pisa with mustard sauce dripping down the sides, I snagged a Pepsi and headed outside, to sit down under the tree we had used yesterday.

"Jo, I have to ask you something. After what Dante had said in there, I have been wondering about this."

I looked at her and came out with it, "You like sex, don't you?"
 
Jo

I noticed Jason’s shaking hands, but thought it best not to say anything. I knew the encounter with Dante was hard on him. But he really handled it well. Much better than what I had planned to say.

My thoughts turned inward for a moment as I started to second guessing my choice of clothing today, my trip to get more coffee, and the way I had teased Dante and Gail the day before. Had I gone too far? I just wanted Jason to gain some positives from having a date. Those two had tried to mock him, and he did not deserve that. So I pushed back. Maybe I pushed back too hard?

Then out of the blue Jason asked "You like sex, don't you?"

I looked up at him with a goofy smile. “Yes… maybe not as much as Fortnite… but yes, I like sex!” I joked. Then I told him more seriously “In fact, I love sex” I said as I grabbed his hand and looked into his eyes.

“Why are you asking?” I questioned him. I thought it might have to do with his comment about us being in a “relationship”. Which I totally agree with, I thought we were in a relationship.
