Yes, take it like a man

Feeling my cheeks burning, I lifted my drink to my lips.

Laughter erupted. "So that's where you were! What the fuck, man?" exclaimed Emily.

"I'm... impressed," said Jack.

"I hope you washed your hands!" Laura added. I hadn't. I had to resist the urge to give my palm a sniff, but that would make things even worse.

Thankfully, everyone took it in good spirit, although I seemed to obtain the nickname "wankboy" on that very first night. Allie mouthed a silent "sorry", but the look on her face told me she wasn't really.

"Let's take some of the heat off Sam," Tim said meekly. "Never have I ever masturbated outside my own home."

I drank. So did Jack, Emily, and Laura.

"Never have I ever," said Jack, with purpose, looking around the circle at the three girls, "shaved my pubic region bare."

The three girls all grimaced, as if the question were a little too personal. But, after a long, awkward pause, eventually only Allie drank.

"Never have I ever..." said Laura, pausing either for effect or because she couldn't think of anything she hadn't done, "done anal... Oh, come on? None of you? Really?"

Resigning herself to her fate, she took her big forfeit drink.

"Never have I ever," said Emily, "been seen naked by anyone outside my family."

Everyone except Tim (and Emily herself, of course) drank.
