Chapter 9

When we returned to the kitchen, Linda was already done cleaning the glasses and sitting in the living room with the others. So, we joined them.

While there was enough room on the sofas, Patrick and Tim sat on the floor at the coffee table. Nicole was sitting on the couch farthest away from us, and Linda was sitting on the sofa for three, which faced the television. John was sitting on the other sofa, with his back towards us.

Claudia took my hand and pulled me along. She made me sit between her and Linda on the big sofa.

“So, what are we going to do?” Patrick wanted to know.

“I hadn’t planned anything,” Nicole said. “So, it’s up to you guys.”

“Well, normally, I would love to go for a walk in the forest,” Linda said. “But for today, I think I will make an exception.”

“So, what could we do then?” Claudia said.

“I know!” Tim suddenly said. “What do you think about a game of truth or dare?”

“That could be interesting,” Patrick said and looked at me.

“Okay. But we will do it with a twist,” Claudia said.

All of us looked at her. She looked at Nicole and asked, “Do you have a deck of cards?”

“Sure,” Nicole said. Stood up and went to a cabinet. She returned with an unopened pack, and while giving it to Claudia, she said, “Here.”

“Thanks,” Claudia said while accepting it. She opened the box and only took the cards with hearts and spades out of the deck.

She looked at us and said, “We will play it like this. I will shuffle these cards and put them in the middle of the table.

“We will then pull a card each. The person who has the highest card will ask the question or give a dare to the person who has the lowest card. The one with the lowest card will pull an extra card to see if he or she gets a dare or a question.

“You get a dare when you pull a face card; if you pull a numbered card, you will get a question to answer. If you don’t want to answer the question, you must do a dare instead. And last but not least. If you pull an ace, you must remove all your clothes for the rest of the evening and do a sexual dare.”

“I’m not going to do that!” John said.

We all looked at him.

“I’m not going to get naked in front of you guys,” he explained.

“Why not?” Patrick said. “We have all showered together already.”

“Not with the girls,” he said.

“Come on,” Claudia said. “As if we haven’t seen a naked guy before. I’m sure you don’t have anything we haven’t seen already.”

Patrick was about to say something when John stared him down. Patrick kept quiet. It made me curious about what John wanted to keep from sharing with the girls in the group.

“The chance of pulling an ace at that moment is astronomically small,” Nicole said. “In fact, if any of you pull one at that point of the game, he or she can sleep with me tonight. Oh, and if you don’t know, I always sleep in the nude.”

We all were staring at her, some of us were smiling, and I thought, She must have calculated it in her head already, and she is sure it won’t happen. Although, the thought of sleeping with her was strangely appealing.

And then we all looked at John, and he said, “Okay, I’ll play along.”

“Yes!” Tim shouted while Patrick said, “Aunt, whatever happens, I’m not sleeping with you!”

It made us all laugh.

“Oh, and one other thing. If you pull an ace and are already naked, you must make out with the person who had won the first round and then do a dare for him.

“And, you can’t ask anyone to remove clothing with a regular dare.

“So, is everyone game?” Claudia asked.

We all nodded our heads, even Nicole.

Claudia moved from the sofa to the ground and started shuffling the cards. While she was doing this, we all sat on the floor at the coffee table. Linda touched my upper leg and whispered, “I hope one of them will pull an ace.”

I smiled at her and saw Claudia put the deck in the middle of the table.

“Because we are Nicole’s guests, I think she has to pull the first card. Oh, and from then on, the person who loses the draw will draw first the next time.”

For clarity, I’m going to tell you our seating arrangements. Nicole was sitting at one side of the table, Claudia, me, and Linda on one of the longer sides, then John opposite of Nicole, and then Patrick and Tim on the other long side. This would also be the sequence of the first pull of cards.

Nicole pulled a four, Claudia, a king, I a nine, Linda also a nine, John a six, Patrick a five, and Tim a Six.

“That’s bad luck,” Claudia said, smiling at Nicole. Well, she had the highest card and Nicole the lowest.

“You rigged the deck,” Nicole said accusingly while smiling.

Claudia shook her head and said, “No, but I’m always lucky with the cards. Now you pull another card.”

Nicole pulled a king, and Claudia giggled.

“If I were you, I would work in a casino,” she told Claudia. “So, what’s my dare.”

Claudia didn’t need to think about it and said, “Get us something to drink with a kick. And I mean the good stuff.”

“No can do!” Nicole said. “While you may be old enough to have sex, you are only eighteen. And Anita and I aren’t going to get drunk with you guys around. But I can get you all some soft drinks.”

“Okay, fine.” Claudia said, and while Nicole got up, she added, “Guys, I tried, but no luck.”

Claudia knew that her request would fall on deaf men’s ears, but she just wanted to have some fun. Also, she wanted something to drink because if her game went as she hoped, this could be a long game.

Nicole returned with a pile of plastic cups and a few soda bottles. After everyone had something to drink, she sat on the ground again. Claudia looked at Nicole and said, “Your turn again.”

Nicole pulled a ten this time. Then Claudia a king, again.

“Are you sure you didn’t rig the deck?” Nicola asked again teasingly. Claudia just smiled at her.

I pulled a seven, and then Linda pulled a two.

“Shit!” she said.

John pulled an Ace.

“Shit ... too soon,” Claudia said jokingly.

Patrick pulled an eight and Tim a seven.

“Okay, pull another card,” Claudia told Linda.

Linda pulled a ten.

“Phew,” Linda said while wiping her forehead. We giggled or laughed. Depending on the type of person.

“Hmm, let me think.” While thinking, Claudia asked, “Is there someone in the room you are in love with?”

Linda started blushing, and while looking at the deck of cards in the middle of the table, she answered, “Yes!”

Everyone looked at each other, but I had a feeling I knew who she loved at this table and probably some of them as well.

“Okay, it’s your turn again,” Claudia told Linda.

Patrick pulled a four during this round, but Tim pulled a three. Patrick let out a huge sigh. John smiled at Tim because he had pulled a queen while Nicole pulled an ace.

“Fuck,” John let out.

Claudia and I couldn’t beat it but didn’t pull a two.

So, it was Tim’s turn to pull an extra card. He pulled a two. Damn, I had been lucky.

Nicole asked the same question as Claudia had asked Linda. And he also answered with, “Yes.”

I hoped I was right because those two looked like they could be a lovely couple.

To make it less repetitive, I will say who won and lost and if they had to answer a question or dare from now on. I may even skip some less exciting things to get the flow going.

Next: Tim had a queen, and Nicole a two. She pulled a seven.

“If someone of us pulled an Ace, you said he or she would be allowed to sleep with you. Would you also have sex with them?” Tim wanted to know.

Nicole just shrugged and answered, “If that person would want to have some fun in bed. Sure, why not?”

We all made whooping sounds at her. Which made us all laugh.

Next: This time, I had the highest card and Linda the lowest. She pulled a 10.

“Um ... a minute,” I said, pulling Claudia to the kitchen.

“What is it?” she wanted to know.

“I want to ask Linda if she is in love with Tim. Is that a good idea? I don’t know her well enough and don’t want to embarrass her.”

“Nah, better not,” Claudia said. “But if you get the opportunity to ask Tim about Linda, I would do that.”

“Okay.”

And so we returned to the table, and I asked Linda, “Would you run around naked in the woods if asked?”

I was surprised that she had to think about it, and then she said, “Only if I was dared to do it, but I wouldn’t do it just for fun.”

“Good to know,” Patrick said. “Remember our bet earlier?”

“Oh! Shit!” Linda said and started blushing.

Next: Linda won, and Nicole lost again. She pulled an ace.

“WHAT THE FUCK!” Nicole let out and stared at Claudia.

“Really,” Claudia said, wanting to crawl into a corner. “I did not lie. I didn’t rig the cards.”

“FUCK! I should have done the math before bragging about how slim the chances were of this happening,” she said with a smile. “Well, rules are rules.”

Nicole just started to undress in front of us. She first pulled off her socks because she had ditched her shoes earlier. Then pulled down her pants, revealing to us that she wasn’t wearing any panties, and ... she also had no pubic hair. And then she removed her blouse. She stood completely naked, showing off her tight body to us. She really looked very nice.

“Well, have a good look, guys,” she said with a smile.

And we all did just that. We all knew Nicole was beautiful, but seeing her naked like this, I thought, made her look very cute. She was 5’5” tall and weight 112 pounds. Just like me, she had a rather sporty appearance. Her breasts were much smaller than mine, just a little more than a handful, and her areolas were also smaller than mine, with cute little nipples that proudly showed themselves. She stood there with her legs slightly spread, so we all could see how her inner labia were sticking out between her outer. In fact, her outer labia were taut, and that’s probably why her inner labia were sticking out like that. One of her features I also want to mention is that she had twinkling blue-greenish eyes. Decorated with long natural eyelashes.
