ave with him.
I gave it back before I graduated. It got too-it got too sticky
for me. He wanted more than I was willing to give. I didn't
wanna-I didn't want to, um, suck his dick. I didn't want to
have sex with him. I never did that, and I wanted to be able
to walk away from this saying that I-saying that I never did
that. And I'm glad that I did.

ased my pay, as long as he could
put anything inside of me. And

om the very first time you went?
ot track, like, of, of what happened
hich order things progressed.

But I lied to him when I gave it back. I didn't want to burn my
bridges, because he was a spectacular connection to have.
Spectacular. Even if I didn't-even when I didn't work for
him. Until this day, he is so aw-he is so-I haven't talked
to him in, like, a couple months, but if I called him today he
would give me as much money as I asked him for. He doesn't
know that I hate him the way I do. I kept that connection. I
figured he used me, I'd be able to use him. Um, I hate to say
that, but I figured if I wanted to use him I could.
D: Okay. Let me bring you back a little bit.
V: Sure.
D: When did things start to escalate as far as things happening
when the massages were given?
V: They escalated whenever he wanted. I don't clearly understand the question.
D: Okay. The first time you went, you were naked-

V: ...and the little steps that things progressed?
D: Right.
V: Well, I went and I wouldn't take off my panties at first. And then he got me to get naked. Then he got me to let him rub me. Then he got me to let him stick his fingers in me. Then he got me to let him go down on me. Then, um-that was pretty much the gist of it, except this one time, where he bent me over the table and put himself in me. Without my permission. And I flipped out. I'm sorry, I didn't ask you, but I don't count that as me having sex with him.... 'Cause I just told you that I never had sex with him. I never did. Even though, I don't know what you'd consider that. But he then-I go, "What are you doing?"
He goes, "Oh, I just wanted [redacted] to see this."
D: Okay. Let me back you up. When you were completely naked, the same things happened? You went in, you massaged him?
V: Sometimes I didn't even do that. Sometimes he just asked me to take off my clothes and-he'd have to do work, he'd be sitting at his desk or something, and I'd just be naked there, watching television or reading a book, but I'd be naked. Or, um, sometimes he wanted to just watch TV or read, and he'd lay in his bed and ask me to take my clothes off and lay with him. And that's it. Not touch him or anything.... Sometimes he'd just invite me over for breakfast, for dinner, or just to use the swimming pool, and I'd get paid for that, too. I'd get paid just to hang out with him. That's it. And if the money wasn't there, I wouldn't have ever been in that house.
D: Okay. When he started to touch you—
V: I have a question. Before I say anything else. Um, is there a possibility that I'm gonna have to go to court or anything?
Like, that's a possibility, right?
