That Killer Blue Dress [MF]

My [last story](https://www.reddit.com/r/gonewildstories/comments/3kzo56/the_one_that_broke_my_heart_mf/) got a lot of positive, supportive responses and though it’s been over a year I’ve decided to share a few more stories.

Looking back makes the rest of the story make sense, when you look at it that way. Katy and I didn't become fast friends. She was the closest thing I had to an enemy at the time, and we were forced to work together by happenstance.

Grudgingly we grew to respect one another. She was a good leader, I had to admit, and never did anything to make me feel like she was just lording her power over me. I was a hard worker and a fast learner and she quickly learned to rely on me whenever she needed something done. Read more »
