Anything He wants

Frank perked up at the sound of his name and Amy wished that she could disappear.

“Oh, this ought to be good,” Kate said looking from Amy to Frank.

Amy noticed that Melissa was no longer hanging on his arm and wondered if she’d left the party. Frank didn’t look particularly upset about it if she had.

“There is nothing to tell,” Amy said.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

“That’s not the truth,” Kate said.

“Kate!”

“Well, it’s not. If you can’t be truthful then you have to take the dare.”

Amy sighed heavily. She knew that Kate wouldn’t let her get away with a slimmed-down version of the truth so she threw up her hands in surrender and selected to take the dare.

Kate and the others lowered their heads conspiring together on the proper dare while Amy waited feeling those odd pangs of anxiety building inside her again. She was well aware of Luke’s eyes on her and she seemed to suddenly have Frank’s undivided attention as well.

“There is nothing to tell, really,” she said for his benefit, “I only took the dare because Kate isn’t going to let me get away with the truth.”

Frank didn’t say anything but the expression on his face suggested that he didn’t quite believe her.

“Okay,” Kate said at last, “We dare you to have sex with someone in this room.”

“What? Are you crazy?” Amy said nearly choking on the fresh drink Parker had handed her.

“Would you rather go back to Truth?” Kate said with a wink.

“No, but you can’t expect me to do something like that.”

“It’s only sex.”

“No one here wants to have sex with me,” Amy retorted.

“I’ll volunteer,” Luke said raising his hand. Amy was thankful she was sitting because if she’d been standing, she would have fallen over.

“Well, that is perfect isn’t it?” Kate said.

“Kate, you’ve had way too much to drink tonight and that isn’t fair because you were supposed to be my ride home.”

“I can handle that too,” Luke said with a laugh, “I don’t drink.” “I could take you home,” Frank said startling her.

“What happened to Melissa?” Parker asked.

“Turns out that we don’t see eye to eye on some things.”

Amy simply looked from one man to the next too stunned to speak and feeling too fuzzy from the number of drinks she’d had to make sense of this peculiar situation. She should take the Truth and spill her guts. What difference would it make when she was planning to leave it all behind tomorrow? But the reality was that she was desperately horny and she wanted to take the dare.

“So, what do you think?” Luke said prompting some sort of response from her.

“Oh, umm…” Words failed her as she looked from Kate to Luke and then to each of the other faces that watched her waiting for her reaction. She noticed that a lot of the crowd had thinned out leaving only the core people that she’d been socializing with throughout the evening. According to the clock on the wall, it was almost one in the morning. She had to be at the airport in only six hours. If she were sensible, she’d be on her way home right now to try to get some sleep.

But she’d always been sensible and look how far that had gotten her, she thought. She’d managed to hit rock bottom with no escape except to pack up everything she owned and cross the country to start all over again.

“Okay,” she said at last.

“You’ll take the dare?” Kate said pleasantly surprised.

“Yes. That is the point of the game, right?”

“Of course.”

“So then, what are the rules?” Amy asked still not believing that she was going through with this.

“I’m assuming you’ve done this before?” Parker laughed. He handed Luke a box of condoms and shooed the rest of the guests off the couch. “Wait a minute,” Amy said in alarm, “We’re doing this here?”

“Why not?” Luke shrugged standing up to make his way to the couch where she was now the only person sitting. “Because we’re not alone,” Amy said.

“Does it bother you if we watch?” Frank said.

“Umm… I don’t know,” Amy said forcing herself to meet his eye. His face looked flushed and his eyes roamed over her body with a gaze that screamed territorial. No, she had to be imagining it, she told herself. He wouldn’t be dating another woman if he’d had any feelings toward her. She’d given him plenty of chances. All the same, the way he looked at her gave her renewed feelings of bravery. She wanted him to watch her with another man. She wanted him to see everything that he was missing out on.

Luke knelt in front of Amy and pulled her head to his.

“I have been hoping to do this since the moment I walked in the door.”

Before she could respond, he pressed his mouth to hers and kissed with an urgency that she couldn’t remember ever feeling before. The world around her disappeared as she gave in to his kiss.
