Dirty disgusting dancing

It took a little while for Ashley to get Julie and herself cleaned up. Julie was chattering on about what had happened and worrying about what might be coming. Ashley realized that she did not have much reassuring to say. She also could not shake the thoughts of what the blackmailer might have in store. She certainly was not overly worried about sucking and fucking. She could do that and help to keep some of the pressure of that off of Julie. Maybe. But in the back of her mind she had the feeling that the blackmailer knew that too and if he did intend to humiliate her knew that he would have to go further.

Julie did not want to go back downstairs and into the party but Ashley knew that hiding would not last for long and might bring along a resulting vengeance. She also figured that leaving was not allowed. But going back down into the party and having guys pushing drinks into their empty hands all night clearly could not work. They would be too trashed to take care of themselves or anyone else. As they came back through the bedroom Ashley noticed an accumulation of beer cans on the dresser and an old trick from her younger years came back to her. She found a couple that were reasonably clean and went back into the bathroom and rinsed them. The blackmailer would know that something was up if he saw them but Ashley figured they could plead that he never said they had to put an empty drink down. At least all the other guys would see that they already had a drink in their hands.

They headed back down the stairs now. The room was filled with people talking loudly and drinking and the music was still playing loudly. A group of guys were on the stairs using the vantage point to talk while scoping out the room and the girls had to push their way through. Ashley felt a hand on her ass as they passed and heard Julie protesting and felt her twisting and hustling past to get down the stairs.

As Ashley looked out over the crowd she suddenly recognized Danny Cummins moving across the room in her general direction. She tried to move quickly down the stairs so that she would be out of sight but as she was watching she saw him look up at her and break into a big grin. There was a brief unofficial race through the crowds of teenagers as Ashley hoped to disappear and Danny clearly intended to talk with her. Danny caught her at the bottom of the stairs.

"Hi Ash." Danny, beer in hand, blocked her way.

"Hi Danny. Excuse me, I need to go catch up with a friend."

"Whoa, hold on, I thought we might talk a bit. Maybe dance." Danny was not yielding a path.

"I don't think so. Gotta go."

"Wait a second."

"Get out of my way, Dammit." The civility that Ashley had tried to show due to the circumstances was all used up and she was clearly getting mad. "No way I'm dancing with you!" She began to push her way past in no uncertain terms.

Danny was not yielding. "Funny, I just talked to a guy that said that he was a very special friend of yours. Family photographer or something. And he assured me that you would dance with me." Danny had a knowing smirk on his face. If he did not know the whole story then Ashley figured he had been told a convincing one. So this was the blackmailer's punishment. She shuddered at the thought but quickly recovered.

"OK. Let's dance. Then I need to go. Come On." She took his arm and pulled him into the part of the room that was functioning as a small dance area.

Ashley noticed that the song that was on was a fast one and she wanted to get this out of the way quickly and as painlessly as possible. Danny was not too bad of a dancer. She knew this could not be the dance that Danny had in mind but he seemed to be going along OK. Soon Ashley recognized that the song was winding down and prepared to take her leave, but before she could the DJ broke in over the top of the final notes. "And our next song goes out to Ashley and Danny, ‘I wish I could hold you all night!’" Ashley groaned. This was a song she liked to get a guy out to dance to. A guy she liked. The song was long and slow and the words were suggestive.

Danny didn't even have to ask. He merely stepped forward and put his arms around Ashley. She had little choice but to do the same. She was not surprised as she felt one hand move to her ass. But when he started squeezing aggressively and pressing her forward against his crotch her limit was once again reached. "Danny please, that's enough!" She tried to pull back but he was not releasing her. Instead he leaned his head over near her ear and whispered, "Ash dear, it isn't nearly enough. I don't know what the game is but our friend said you would do much more than dance with me. Oh, here is his note."

Ashley took the note and unfolded it.

Ash-

Make sure Danny is pleased. And when he has had his fill of you come back to the party. Meanwhile I will try to keep Julie entertained. But try not to take too long as I can’t promise to keep her out of trouble. That evidently is your job.

Ashley quickly folded the note and realized she had nowhere to put it. She felt her pulse quickening at the implications of the note and felt suddenly weak in the knees. Then she looked up at Danny.

"I took the liberty of reading it first. After this dance I think we'll go for a little walk."
