Alternate Timeline: Go to the tub

You grab Colby’s hand.

“Come on,” you say eagerly, giving her a pull.

She resists, looking puzzled. “What?”

“Come on.” You look meaningfully toward the bathroom, where you can hear the jets and the girls.

Colby stares at you. You realize that she might not be quite as drunk as you are.

She says nothing, but you know your friend. Your thoughts take shape.

You are asking Colby to get naked, into a tub with several girls that she does not know at all. There’s no way that’s going to happen. You have to change course, but you don’t get the chance.

She pulls her hand free and smiles.

“You go,” she says, slipping off the bed. “I don’t want you to miss out.”

“Wait,” you say, stricken.

“No, no,” she replies lightly, faking it… somewhat convincingly. “I should stop. I don’t want a hangover at the con. Not a big one, anyway.” She gathers her stuff.

“Colby,” you say, feeling terrible. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be sorry,” she says, not making eye contact. She gestures with her hand. “You have like your thing here. It’s your thing. It’s OK.”

She leaves.

“God,” you groan, putting your face in your hand. It’s not the first time you’ve fucked something up, and it probably won’t be the last. You’ll have to figure out how to smooth this over when you’re sober.

A little grumpily, you get off the bed and go into the bathroom, getting a momentary and heart-stopping full-moon view of Athena climbing into the tub with Yuki and Nancy. Your heart races almost fast enough to make you forget what just happened.

Then Athena’s in and the view is gone.

The tub looks pretty crowded with three. Five… would not work anyway. So there’s that.

“What’s wrong?” Nancy asks, seeing your face.

You roll your eyes. “My innocent friend wasn’t ready to get in a tub with four horny CCL chicks,” you say.

“Three,” Yuki corrects, then hiccups. “You’re still just a pledge. Why are your clothes still on? I want to inspect the goods.”

“Oh my god,” Athena says to her, appalled.

“What, you don’t want to see her naked?” Yuki takes another swig.

Athena can’t help but smile. “I guess I wouldn’t mind.”

Embarrassed, you hesitate for a second, but now they’re all staring. You can’t back down. You nervously strip, and no one says anything, although Athena and Nancy move to make room for you as you climb in. Nancy puts her arm around your shoulder as you settle in. You have Athena’s warm arm on one side, and some side boob against you from Nancy. Legs are everywhere. The water’s hot, but not as hot as you. You’re overheating fast.

Yuki snorts.

“What happened, Meri?” Nancy asks nicely.

“I should’ve kissed her,” you grumble.

“I felt that energy,” Yuki says sagely. “That girl’s not one of us. But she’s got that…” she trails off, looking at Nancy.

“That curiosity,” Nancy says in a slightly predatory way.

“Peak CCL,” Athena murmurs distractedly, lifting one arm out of the water to look critically at her skin.

“OK, Meri. We’ll get you ready.” Nancy leans close to you, nudging your cheek with her nose. “Practice on me.”

“What?”

“Kiss me. Kiss me like I’m your innocent, straight friend and you just want to…” She pauses, frowning. “What do you want to do to her?”

“Oh my god. I just want us to be cool,” you say.

“Yeah. But what do you really want to do to her?” Nancy asks.

You groan, but then you laugh. You bite your lip for a moment, then splash water at Yuki.

“I guess wouldn’t mind seeing her naked,” you say.

“OK. Then kiss me like you want to get me out of my clothes,” Nancy orders.

You look at her, unsure of what to do. You have kissed girls, but not like… passionate, movie seduction kisses. How do you even do that? Maybe that’s your problem... It annoys you so much that you dropped the ball here.

You channel that frustration and put your hands on Nancy’s face, planting your lips on hers and going to town. She giggles, but eagerly gets into it, pulling you closer and kissing you back.

It goes on for a minute. When you finally come up for air, you find Yuki and Athena watching with great interest, looking almost taken aback.

“Don’t, uh… don’t stop because of me,” Athena says, fanning her face and taking a sip of wine.

“Stop. Stop. Pause long enough for me to go get a toy,” Yuki says.

“Shut up. Keep going,” Athena says, grabbing Yuki to stop her from going anywhere.

You turn back to Nancy. You’re face to face, chest to chest, which is a lot…

Make the next move?

Or ask her to show you what to do?

[ Open ]

Notes: Making the next move makes Meri more confident and assertive, and impresses the girls with her sauciness. Asking for her to show you leads to a more playful, instructional lewd place of Nancy giving detailed instructions in a soft, but dominant way.

Overall, taking this path reduces the Colby score and increases the Party Girl score. There’s still an opportunity to get some Colby points back on Saturday if you take this route, because Colby can’t help but ask about what happened with the tub last night. If Meri correctly reads Colby’s thirst and curiosity and spins her up, that’s enough to salvage it and lead to Meri spending Saturday night with Colby (and taking her virginity), but to get the score that high you have to turn your back on CCL and Athena a few times. As for Friday night, the group sex in the hotel is a bit wilder if we don’t kiss Colby because this Nancy x Meri action in the tub gets the others very horny.
