Red Card

“Well?” Colin asked, speaking for the group by breaking the tense silence. She said nothing, slowly reaching out to spin the arrow. It landed on Lily, who shifted uncomfortably under Sarah’s wolfish grin.

“Not exactly what I was hoping but…” Sarah started cryptically. “So,” she started with a sweet smile. “You want to eat me out, or do you want me to?”

Lily groaned. “Please no.”

“Oh, hush. I know you enjoyed it—”

“Did not!”

“Then why did you—”

“We are not talking about this! I’m passing,” Lily said in a firm voice.

“Nuh-uh,” Sarah said, standing. “Come here.”

“No!” Lily said, not putting up much of a fight as Sarah pulled her from the circle.

“Thirty seconds,” Sarah said as she knelt between the girl's legs. “If you aren’t enjoying it in thirty seconds, I’ll stop.”

Lily never said no despite her earlier protest. I watched as Sarah grinned victoriously before helping the woman remove her panties.

“Yeah, this is too much for you,” Emma said, blocking my view. I frowned, staring at her. My protest died as she kissed me. For a moment, I lost myself in the sweet feel of her lips knowing full well she was distracting me.

So unfair.

The seal had been broken. Everyone was pulling red cards now. Nina spun next as the group seemingly ignored Lily’s whimpers and gasps of pleasure. The mood had completely shifted. The flirty fun was over as lust and desire blanketed the group. Listening to the two only hurried the others along. I cast a few glances in their direction. Emma didn’t stop me, but I couldn’t see all that much from my spot with only the top of Sarah’s head buried between Lily’s legs visible. Thirty seconds had long since passed.

I don’t think Lily was going to stop her.

The arrow landed on Grant.

“Fuck.”

“Yes!” he said with an arm pump.

“No,” Nina said, clarifying as she flipped the card around so he could see. “Sixty-second blowjob.”

“Wait, only a minute?”

“That’s what it says.”

“What kind of blue-balls shit is that?”

Her gaze went down to the sizable bulge Grant had. “Nothing compared to what my poor jaw is going to suffer…”

She didn’t pass though. Grant moved to the couch behind him as she casually went between his legs. Wasting no time, she pulled his massive member free and went to work.

I have no idea how the hell she fit that in her mouth. It looked a hell of a lot bigger in person than on the videos or pictures Emma had.

With things progressing quickly, I felt like a fish out of water.

“You okay?” I jumped slightly at Emma’s breath on my ear as I pulled my eyes away from the shocking sight of Nina and Grant. Attention on my girlfriend, I felt her hand tighten around mine.

“Things are getting a bit…”

She grinned. “Fun?”

“Intense.”

Her smile weakened a bit. “If it’s too much…” Eyes sliding down, her free hand pressed against my chest. It slowly slid down and her eyes flicked up to me. Leaning forward, her lips pressed against my ear. “We can find a private place…”

I tried to swallow the lump in my throat. “I’m fine.”

“Are you?” Her voice had shifted, sending a shiver down my spine. “All this fun happening around you knowing you can’t join in… must be tough.”

“It’s… fine,” I **** out.

“Looks like a lot of fun. Glad I can still play.” Her hand found its way to my thigh. I grit my teeth as she playfully ran her hand along my inner leg. Our eyes locked as she stared at me. “You do want me to play, don’t you?” she asked, a question dripping in honeyed sweetness.

I nodded, not trusting myself to speak. Somewhere beyond Emma, I think Lily was cumming. If not, she was close and unable to suppress her moans. It sounded like Grant was complaining—no doubt upset his sixty seconds were up. The arrow was clicking, which suggested the game was still going on. All that faded into background noise as I focused on Emma.

“You realize if I keep playing, I’ll be doing things with other guys?” Another nod. “And you still want me to play?” Heart racing, my gaze never left hers.

“I do.”

Her eyes sparkled in excitement as she lost herself in the moment. I didn’t need a warning that we were in one of our game moments. By now, we understood each other enough to sense when we had slipped into a moment. I trusted Emma. I doubted I would need our safety words tonight, but I knew that if I said them she would instantly comply—just like I would if she said them. It was that unshakable trust that made all this possible.

It was hard to control my breathing with the look she was giving me. That mischievous smile with the impish gleam in her eyes brought back all sorts of memories and emotions. I prepared myself, accepting my love’s quirks as she accepted mine.

Her voice was barely audible over the sounds around us. Emma’s fingers caressed my cheek slowly as she spoke. “I want you to know, if at any point it looks like I’m enjoying myself with the other guys more than you, it’s because I am.”

Ha. Jokes on her. I’m a pervert who’s into that. Maybe the old, insecure me would have been hurt by that. Now? I knew exactly where I stood and how she felt about me.

Hugging me, I felt her lips against my ear once more. “I’ll reward you later.”

Well damn. Wonder what that would be.

Pulling away, I was freed of the spell she cast on me. She had a knowing smirk, seeing I enjoyed that as much as she did. Things had shifted around. Sarah and Lily were back in their spots—Lily looking flush and unkempt. Poor girl hadn’t even bothered putting her panties back on and looked like she was having an existential crisis as she stared into the distance.

Mike had taken Grant’s place on the couch, Tayler's red hair bobbing up and down between his legs. He was enjoying himself. Didn’t even seem bothered by being exposed in front of everyone—though things were moving fast enough to keep people’s attention on the game rather than the debauchery around us.

Callie spun to see who was going next before she got to her feet with poise. She moved as if she was above everyone and everything else, dragging a grinning Ryan after her. Plopping onto the couch next to Mike, she spread her legs and allowed Ryan access. My eyes never left her, even as Ryan happily pulled her closer to the edge so he had more leverage. It finally sunk in that this was the first time I was seeing all these gorgeous girls naked. And they were certainly gorgeous. I thought Emma would spoil me since I considered her the most perfect woman on the planet, but seeing the others…? Not bad.

Movement beside me pulled my attention away from Callie and Ryan back to the game. The arrow had landed on Emma and she was busy laying down two yellow cards and pulling a red from the deck. I took a deep breath as I waited, holding my breath. Glancing my way, she quirked an eyebrow before smiling. She handed me the card before reaching forward to spin the arrow.

It felt like I was chewing on cotton balls as I read the card.

Spin the arrow until landed on a member of the opposite sex. Position: Missionary**
Remember to use a condom!**

Of course Emma would be the first one to draw a sex card. I’d been expecting another oral one considering what was happening around us. Thinking about that reminded me of how she refused to let me do that, saying she didn’t like it. It made me wonder if she would have gone along with it for the game. If so, I might have called bullshit and put a stop to it. I wasn’t opposed to it happening—quite the opposite. But if I wasn’t allowed to do it, certainly no one else was either.

My mind immediately went to Sarah and Lily.

Hmm…

Even though I knew that would never happen…

Refocusing, I found the arrow pointed at me. I grinned. Well, looked like luck hadn’t abandoned me completely. That thought lasted until I looked over at Emma and found her frowning.

“Oh!” Sarah said excitedly, clapping her hands. “And what do the cards have for the two lovebirds today?”

“Missionary sex,” Emma said in a flat tone, placing the red card next to her stack of yellows.

Her friend was bouncing excitedly in her seated position. “I finally get to see the guy who captured my BFF’s heart in action! Shame it’s not hands on but… I’ll take what I can get.”

“He’s going to pass.”

“Huh?” Our response was identical.

I would never pass on an opportunity with the love of my life, even if it meant being in front of everyone.

Emma glared at me, words dripping with danger. “Unless he is planning to break our agreement of him sticking to yellow and blue cards.”

“I thought that only applied to others!”

“Did I say that?”

Ohhh, bitch. Even though her expression was anything but friendly, I knew she was teasing me.

“No…”

“Then when I said no red cards, I meant no red cards. Now, should I get a condom or are you going to pass?”

I took a deep breath, doing my best to glare unhappily at her. “Pass,” I said, exhaling in defeat.

She was instant smiles. “Good boy,” she said, patting my head.

“I will never understand you two,” Sarah said, holding her stomach in laughter. The way it made her boobs move…

I jerked as pain shot up from my side. Betrayed, my shocked gaze went to Emma, who was the picture of innocence. “Ow.” I rubbed at the sore spot she had pinched. “What? Now I can’t look either?”

“Oh? Something over here interest you?” Sarah asked, jumping in. She circled a lock of hair in her finger, doing her best to look sweet and enticing—and succeeding. “You know, if you ever decide to drop Ms. Possessive and want a girl who really knows how to have fun, I’m more than willing to share my bed,” she said with a wink.

“Before ghosting him after a month for a new boy toy to play with.”

Sarah’s smile only grew. “But what a month it would be…”

“Are we already past the oral cards?” Ryan asked as he headed back to his spot. Wait, he was done? I did a double-take. Callie was a puddle on the couch, breathing hard with a glazed look in her eye. It was weird seeing her so… relaxed. “Why don’t we hold off on spinning until everyone finishes up and we come back as a group?”

No one seemed opposed to the idea. It looked like most were curious about what he was up to. Ryan had a way of doing that. Just when things were starting to descend into chaos, a few words from him and the ship was righted.

Taylor and Mike returned to the group shortly after his announcement. I was surprised he was walking around without covering himself. He wasn’t the only guy naked, but he had to walk across the group to get to his spot. My friend had come a long way from being the self-conscious nerd I befriended back in the day. Taylor was far more embarrassed, her cheeks matching her hair as she rushed back to her spot and quickly downed the rest of her beer.

Oh my god. She swallowed—

“Please tell me you weren’t waiting for me,” Callie said, doing her best to sound above it all. Hard to do when she was clearly still enjoying her afterglow. She strut in front of everyone, doing nothing to hide her nude body. A flick of her hair over her shoulder and she settled into place. No idea how she did it, but she made it feel like she was doing us all a favor by letting us gaze at her body. It was certainly something to look at, but Emma’s…

Glancing over, I found that she was still the only girl wearing both her bra and panties. Beyond that, I was the only guy still in clothes. Underwear, yeah, but still covered.

Were we the only ones not to get any cards? I wouldn’t be joining in obviously, but it was a bit surprising Emma had been spared as well. Not sure if I was happy or sad about that.

Ryan took a breath, getting everyone's attention. “Now that most,” he said with a glance toward me and Emma, “of us have had some release and are thinking a bit clearer now, we have a decision to make. Depends on how quick we want to make things. We could continue playing, but keep the order of yellow and blue cards, or we could skip that and just do what we want.”

“What do you mean ‘order?’” Cameron asked.

“It means the next person doesn’t go until the one before them finishes. Would make for a longer game, but…”

“But?”

Ryan shrugged. “I guess it depends on if you want an audience or not. The red cards aren’t much of a surprise. From here on out, it’s just positions you and your partner will take. The surprise will be what position and with who.”

“And have everyone watching you do it,” Sarah said softly. She looked the most excited out of everyone.

“It would also give people a chance to pick a black card if you are feeling extra brave.”

“I say we do it! It’ll be fun.”

“Of course you would say that,” Lily said with a huff.

“Hey, I was right about the other thing too, wasn’t I?” Lily’s face went completely red.

“It’s one thing to do it with other people busy around you. Having people watch is a bit…” Zach said as he rubbed at his neck.

“It is certainly different, but not terrible,” Ryan said.

“When did you have an audience?” Callie asked, eyes narrowing slightly.

“Isaac watched Emma and me after prom.”

This time it was my turn to go red. The conversation sort of faded out at that point as I battled with the swirling emotions inside me. It took me a moment to remember that while I was certainly weird, I was in good company. That the revelation rolled over without any comment went to show the only one making a big deal out of it was me.

Still took a lot of breathing to calm down.

“So we continue onward then,” Ryan said, confirming the group's decision.

“Until we don’t,” Colin said, his eyes lingering on Maddie.
