“I can hear you bitch, I’m tipsy, not deaf,” Cassie shot back, causing us all to erupt in laughter.
“Hey, Lisa. How have you been? Hi, Mel. How are you liking the Porsche?” I asked as I took a seat across from them, and Tim dapped everyone up.
We had a little small talk while we waited for our other friend, Baja, and her husband to show up. But after waiting an hour, Cassie called her and she said they both had the flu and were in bed.
We wished them well and decided to start the game night without her. By that time, we had already gone through an entire bottle of tequila with just the six of us.
“I have a new game that I found online. It’s like the adult version of truth or dare. If you don’t want to answer or do the dare, you take a shot.” Cassie said as she stood up with a box that held the game. “We’ll just go around pulling the cards in a circle, so Lisa, since you’re closest to me, you go first.” She said, extending the box toward Lisa.
“Damn, we’re coming in hot. Can I pull again?” Lisa asked as she placed the card against her chest so no one could see it.
“Nope. Take a shot then,” Cassie urged.
“No, I’ll answer. The question says what’s a fantasy that you have never admitted out loud?” She chuckled and turned it around so we could all see the question. “Uhhhh, I’ve always had the desire to have a threesome with two men. Like a little Eiffel tower action.”
She said it quickly. No thought and no hesitation. My eyes widened, making her chuckle as she put the card back into the box.
Her husband, Mel, was next. When he pulled the card, his eyes widened too. “What type of shit did you order? Who made this? Pornhub?” He asked as he glared over at Cassie, who gave him a sinister smirk before she shrugged.
He continued to read the card. “My card says eat a food item off the most attractive person in the room,” He chuckled as he put the card down and turned toward Lisa.
He put his finger into the dip and smeared a little on Lisa’s exposed cleavage and then licked it off.
This game had me ready to run for the hills. I don’t know what type of freak shit that Cassie was on, but I had never witnessed anything like it in person. Sure, Tim and I had a very healthy sex life, but we had never had it on display for anyone to see. Let alone our friends and their husbands. With me being next to pull, I started sweating. I don’t know if it was because I was on my fourth cup of tequila or the anticipation of what was to come.
The box came to me, and I hesitated on the pull, making everyone laugh. When I got the card, I was a bit thankful it wasn’t as bad as I had expected. “Have you ever had a threesome? No.” I read and answered all at once, then turned the card around and smiled because I had escaped the pressure from one round.
Cassie interrupted, “Never?” She looked at me with disbelief.
“No, I never have,” I assured her.
“You haven’t lived,” she said. She took a long sip from her drink and chuckled.
I handed the box to Tim, and he pulled a card out. “Kiss someone other than your spouse,” He gave me a look and then shook his head. “I’ll take a shot on that one.” We all snickered, and he poured the tequila into his shot glass and lifted it.
“Okay, I didn’t read the questions first. But maybe we need to establish some ground rules. Can we all agree that there will be no judgment and no hard feelings if we decide that we want to carry out the dare with another person?” Cassie interrupted.
Lisa and Mel nodded. Dex said he didn’t care. That just left Tim and me to decide.
I put my hand over the glass he was about to drink from.
“Play by the rules,” I dared him and watched his next move. He stared at me, wondering if I was serious. I raised my eyebrows and waited to see what he would do. By now, the tequila flowing through my system was giving me the same confidence that only he got to witness. I wanted to see how far it would go.
He put the shot glass down, stood up, walked around the table, and stopped in front of Cassie, who was sitting next to her husband. He leaned down and placed two quick pecks on her lips.
Admittedly, just seconds ago, I thought that it would make me jealous. Thought it might get a grand reaction out of me. But when I stayed seated in my chair and didn’t tear Cassie’s house up, I silently figured it might be okay to continue the game.
Tim sat beside me and put his hand back in the place on my thigh that it had been resting all night before he handed the box to Dex.
Once Dex pulled his card, he broke into a grin, “If you had to fuck one person in this room other than your spouse, whowould it be? Breeze.” He said all in one breath, like it required no thought, causing my own to hitch. Immediately, my eyes shot to Cassie, who just laughed and continued to drink from her cup.
I glanced over at Tim to gauge his reaction. But he didn’t have a visible one either.
The questions seemed to grow wilder the deeper we went into the stack of cards. After we agreed that there would be no hard feelings, we were all drinking because we wanted to. No one had actually taken a shot because they didn’t want to answer a question. We answered and did the dares as freely as we desired.
As the night wound on and more of the questions were being answered, it became very apparent that Cassie, Dex, Lisa, and Mel had lives that I knew nothing about. Both literally and figuratively. Cassie and I were very close, but we never discussed our sex lives, so I didn’t know what she did in her bedroom. And on the other hand, once I found out tonight, I also couldn’t relate. As far as I knew, Tim and I had only been with each other. I liked to think that we had tried everything there was to try until I stepped foot into this room tonight. Now it had me second-guessing my experiences.
“Do a striptease for the group,” Lisa read as she placed the card on the table, turned on a song, and did a striptease down to her underwear. By this time, we were all plastered, and it was more funny than sexy with the way she was being dramatic, moving around like a burlesque dancer.
