Zack hits bedrock with Gavin

Not interested in further discomfort for the moment, Zack needed a safe choice. Unfortunately, that left surprisingly few options anymore.

Heather and Victoria, with their dueling eyes fueled by Ashley's nonchalant attitude, were instantly ruled out. The blonde herself was dangerous in an entirely different way, and if their instant connection meant anything, now wasn't the exact time to explore that.

Hannah or Kurt were definitely not good choices for obvious reasons, and neither was Shawn, and frankly he seemed to be losing interest anyway, sliding into a some kind of lethargic stupor. He wanted to defer attention from his sister because, given with Hannah's silent but voluminous egging, who knows what she would be up for right now, even concerning her brother.

Jennifer and Kendra, similarly, may have been safe once, but Jennifer loosened up, literally, and Kendra's vengeance bubbled just under the surface.

He saw Dustin as a natural rival over Vicky, and given Peter's... fresh familiarity with Heather, both carried plenty of risk.

And Zack had no idea what was going through Brandon's mind anymore, apparently shamelessly enjoying his time with Vicky right in front of him.

Something had practically infected Chloe, or... even more astonishing, something dormant awoke slowly within her, displaying a side of his best friend that he never even dreamed existed. After what came over them on the porch and what seriously transpired between her and Shawn, he sensed a long conversation in the future.

Lisa... aw, hell no.

He needed reliability right now. A predictable ****.

"Gavin!" His friend jolted out of his trance. Relief washed over Zack. It's nice not to be the only one weirded out right now. "Truth or dare?"

Gavin stewed, clicking air in his throat. Zack waited for the inevitable "Truth" to sputter forth, because he knew--

"Dare."

Zack paused. "Uh, wha?"

A great sigh prefaced his words. "Expected something different?"

Zack rattled his head.

"Zack, look, tonight's been crazy. Hell, the whole week's been crazy, and you know? I'm... doing things I've never dreamed, and... it's, it's fun. Yeah, yeah I admit they're fun. So, yeah, dare me. C'mon. I-I can do it."

Zack lapsed into dumbfounded silence, but that ended Heather and Victoria's feud with Ashley. The cheerleader couldn't stop grinning. "Hey, I think I like this Gavin."

"Oh, oh," Hannah laughed. "I think you'd like him a lot. Tay did."

Taylor's freckles contrasted with her skin more as the deep flush spread. Gavin's bright hue never seemed to let up.

Zack blinked. "What!"

"Oh, did I say something?" Hannah smiled way too broadly. Lisa nearly died on her back, crying between each laugh.

Zack couldn't believe... no, wait, really, it couldn't... but... what. Something cracked. "Gavin! I dare you to keep doing what you were doing with whoever you were doing it before Jennifer got here! For..." His arms flailed. "Damnit, a minute!"

All color drained from Gavin. He turned to Taylor, beside him this whole time, and saw a worried face... for him. No embarrassment, no attempts to shy away. Taylor felt concern for him, and his emotional integrity reformed.

"Only..." Gavin **** himself to speak. "If you want..."

"Denying the dare might be worse?" Taylor smirked.

"Seriously?" Zack whined.

"Can it, Zack." At least that sounded like the sister he knew. "What two adults do is between them. Meaning, well, I guess you need to see this." Taylor then yanked Gavin's collar, and impacted his lips to hers.

**** public displays of affection were not in each other's category of turn-ons, but memories of the bathroom washed reality away, and they found themselves alone on a distant shore. Gavin searched Taylor for her taste with his tongue, something tangy cut with a hint of sweetness. Taylor folded into him, finding his shoulder past his neck, then edging down his arm. They broke only for short breaths, crashing into their bodies again as soon as they could.

"God. Damn!" Even Hannah was impressed.

"Go Gavin!" He didn't know out if it was Brandon or Kurt in his cheering section, but he could hardly care.

Taylor leaned to the side, and Gavin followed her lead by sweeping her into his lap. Her rasp resonated in her throat and echoed into his as his constrained cock thumped against her clit once more. She pulled at his shirt, nearly threatening to tear the buttons away. His skin felt so hot as she slid across his shoulders and back, then up through his hair. His hands fumbled beneath her shirt, tugging at her bra before slipping over to cup its occupants. He squeezed. She mewled.

"Ahem." A voice vaguely familiar to Taylor interrupted. "Time, Sugarbees."

Taylor whimpered and mashed a hand into Hannah's face.

"Hey!" Hannah giggled. "Time's up!"

Taylor shook her head, keeping the kiss frantic.

Then, Gavin pulled back. Taylor nearly fell into his chest.

"It's... up?" Gavin gasped.

Taylor's head swam, but the water slowly drained. She gave a slow nod.

They nearly refused to let go, but Taylor arched herself over Gavin and returned to his side. Gavin definitely noticed the view that created briefly, and half-smiled, some part of him lost in incredulity. Taylor was happy to reaffirm reality with a tight hold on his hand.

Heather gave a standing ovation. "Hey Taylor! You mind sharing?"

"I think that's up to him!" she laughed with a blush.

"Dude," Brandon whispered. "She's basically giving you permission."

"H-Hey, now!"

Zack hung like a broken marionette. His sister and one of his best friends just had one of the hottest make out sessions that he had ever witnessed, and Zack felt his world complete its flip. He searched the crowd for... something, anything he could grasp, something that reminded him of the relatively simple days of love quadrangles. But they all cheered, embracing the new status quo amongst them. Even Chloe, the person who should be the most upset by all of this thanks to Lisa's revelations, hadn't hidden her enjoyment with an **** hand pinned between her thighs.

Then he found Lisa. She grinned, sympathetic yet scolding. You asked for it, she said.

That I did, he thought, resting his head in his hands and trying to prepare for the next grand reveal that he just knew was to come.
