Taking What You Want
Adrian had always been something of a loose cannon. He took whatever he wanted most of the time, which resulted in a lot of drama. He would consider himself to be an “alpha male” Although most, If not all, of the people that knew him would consider him to just be an asshole. More often than not, he would put a bit too much focus into tormenting someone, and unfortunately enough for Nate, he had been chosen to be that person. Nate was a pretty big guy, he wouldn't have had any problems standing up to Adrian, he just wasn't all that confrontational. Nate had been good enough to put up with his antics for the most part, but when Adrian went out of his way to try and steal Nate's prom date from him, that was too far.
“So, ready for our date?” Nate stood there as the door opened revealing a beautiful young woman dressed in a stunning orange dress, currently clipping large red earrings on, the weight of which reminded her exactly how different she looked in that moment. She had been helped a lot by Nate’s sister, a beautician who certainly had a knack for the job, you wouldn’t be able to guess who the young woman once was. Who was that young woman? It was Adrian, or as he was to be called that night, Adrianna. Adrian had been… coerced into going with Nate that night. When Nate demanded that he go with him as reparations, Adrian felt all of the confidence he held over Nate for such a long time drain away from him. He never noticed how tall… and assertive he could be. So he couldn't say no… and that was how they ended up here, Adrian dressed like, and indistinguishable from, every other girl in attendance.
As the two of them walked into the lobby, multiple heads turned towards “Adrianna,” much to her embarrassment. Were they judging her… or maybe admiring her? “A-ah!” “She” gasped as Nate put his arm firmly around her. Showing jealousy and, in Adrian's mind, marking him as his woman. Nobody batted an eye at the act, clearly, Adrian was “passing.”
Later into the night, after some awkward banter and deceiving their classmates, Nate forcefully dragged Adrianna onto the dance floor as the slow dance began. As the two of them swayed together, arms wrapped around one another, although Nate was the one in control. Adrian had to rethink some things. In his twisted Idea of the hierarchy of men, what was he now? After the way he treated Nate, Nate stood up once and he completely gave in. Was he not… the ideal man that he thought he was, but only one to be used and enjoyed by “real” men like Nate? Was Adrian the lesser man he had always feared he was, and compensated way too much for? Maybe it was time that he accepted his, or maybe her position. All these thoughts made something stir deep inside of Adrianna, which was soon noticed by Nate, who smirked and looked down at her.
“You didn’t tuck, did you?” Blushing profusely, she struggled with what this meant. Did the thought of being a real man’s plaything really make her… feel that way?
“No, I did not…”
