Thanks for the high praise Pattareth! And all the others who have commented!
BAILEY
Talk about a roller coaster of a night. Highest of highs and lowest of lows. I knew when the group changed up that Leslie’s house was not going to be fun. But Craig was still there and we were getting along so well earlier in the night, I was afraid if I left, he would wonder what happened. Become disinterested. So, I stayed, and I’m so glad I did.
He kissed me! At the end of the night. Yeah, I had to suffer through Shelby and Taylor and Landon’s crap for a few hours but the kiss made it so worth it. It was sweet and romantic and I couldn’t have asked for a better first kiss with him. We exchanged numbers and it seems like things are finally going to get going between us.
My emotions were all over the place when Craig’s Uber showed up and I went inside to end my night. At least I thought I was ending my night. My little brother had other ideas.
I got ready to go to sleep, and when I came back to my room, I found the door locked. At first, I thought maybe I had accidentally done it, a result of the kiss replaying over and over in my brain and clouding my memory. But then Ben appeared like a perverted ninja, shining his flashlight on my nearly nude body, and it didn’t take me long to piece together what had happened. He locked me out. On purpose. I was so tired, and emotionally drained, and done with his bullshit…I gave in.
I've been reading online about what to do in these situations and the consensus is split. A lot of girls said they told on their brothers and that was it. The brother got in a ton of trouble, obviously, and the creeping stopped. But everyone involved had their lives permanently altered. I’ve already decided I can’t do that.
Other girls tried to just ignore it. Play dumb and act as if it wasn’t happening. Issue was, that it continued to happen until one of the two moved out – and sometimes even after. I wasn’t sure I could ignore this for AT LEAST another year and a half.
The last recommendation that several girls suggested was to just let him get what he wants. Let him see it, sometimes over and over, and completely desensitize him. Once it became “normal,” the brother lost curiosity, and moved on. Not ideal. But it did seem like the quickest and cleanest way to be done with this.
A little buzzed for the first time ever, hormones all over the place, emotionally exhausted – I did it.
And it went…as horrible as you could have guessed. Now that I’m sober and gotten a few nights of rest to reflect and recover, I can barely write about it.
I let Ben see it all. EVERYTHING. Head-to-toe. Bare-butt-naked. And he feasted as if it was Thanksgiving Dinner. His eyes escaped his skull as he gawked and drooled and crept up inches from my private parts. He had an erection the entire time. I thought maybe he’d try to play it off, act like he wasn’t infatuated. Nope. Zero shame.
And then – something the message boards didn’t warn me about – he touched me. Down there! UGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I almost vomit thinking about it. And while touching me, he…came…in his shorts! NO ONE had mentioned this was a possibility and I never would have chosen this option if someone had.
The worst part about all of this: I’m not even sure it was enough. Most girls said it took multiple occurrences before their brother got bored. I haven’t even been able to face Ben period since it happened, let alone allow him to see me naked again. We’ve avoided each other like the plague. I of course gave him another warning if he doesn’t stop. But at this point, how serious does he even take my empty threats?
