“You lose! Take a drink!” Tammy Sue said. She handed Carrie Anne the Malibu bottle and the giggling coed took a swig. She winced. She was not used to drinking alcohol. She placed the bottle back onto the plate and gave it a spin. It stopped when the mouth was aimed at Molly Kate.
“Bring it on, girls! I’m not scared!” Molly Kate said, leaning back and stretching her legs confidently.
“Truth, Dare, Double Dare, Promise, or Repeat?” Tammy Sue asked.
The devil danced in Molly Kate’s eyes as she answered with a definitive, “Dare.”
“Dare?” Mary Lou exclaimed. “You haven’t had a drink all evening! Hey, Tammy Sue, come up with a Dare Molly Kate won’t do!”
The other girls agreed with Mary Lou, and urged Tammy Sue to comply.
“A Dare Molly Kate won’t do?” Tammy Sue said, rubbing her palms together. “How about this: I Dare you to walk outside in just your bra and panties, and run across the street!”
Molly Kate arched her eyebrows.
“Is that the best you can do?”
The girls squealed even louder as Molly Kate climbed to her feet and wriggled out of her pink jammies.
“Wooo!” Tammy Sue cheered upon seeing the sexy sorority girl in her undergarments.
Molly Kate hurried to the door, and without a second of hesitation, walked outside into the hallway. The other girls ran to the window to watch down below.
Molly Kate did not disappoint. Only a minute later, she emerged from the front entrance of the apartment building, still clad in nothing but her underwear. She glanced up at the window and blew a kiss to her friends.
“Here I go!” she called.
The girls cheered her on as the scantily-clad girl pranced down the sidewalk and scurried across the street. She tapped a stop sign with her hand and hurried back. To her good fortune, no cars had driven by. Katie Lynn cringed at the thought that someone might see poor Molly Kate in her unmentionables and embarrass the poor girl.
Molly Kate was positively glowing when she returned to the apartment. She had a big smile and didn’t even put her pajamas back on. Instead, she plopped her butt down upon the carpet and gave the bottle a spin.
Around and around the bottle spun, as did Katie Lynn’s head, being as she’d had to take a few drinks from it to avoid the awful Dares her friends had put her up to.
When the bottle finally stopped, the bottle aimed at her once again.
“All right, Katie Lynn!” Molly Kate cheered. “Truth, Dare, Double Dare, Promise or Repeat?”
Katie Lynn weighed her options. She’s already decided that Dares were out of the question. She did not want to reveal any more embarrassing secrets either, after being humiliated when she confessed her lack of sexual experience, and she declined to answer when Amy Jo demanded to know if she held a torch for Johnny O’Dell. She ended up having to take a drink for not answering, and the girls all knew she’d been crushing on him anyway.
She finally answered, “Promise.”
“Promise, okay, what can we make Katie Lynn promise?” Molly Kate asked. “How about, I want you to Promise that you’ll lose your virginity before graduation?”
“Woooo!” the girls cheered.
“But, my parents–”
“Promise! Promise! Promise!” the girls chanted.
“Okay, okay, I Promise!” Katie Lynn said.
The girls cheered loudly.
“All right, Johnny O’Dell is getting lucky!” Amy Jo teased.
“He might not!” Katie Lynn protested.
The girls laughed. Katie Lynn folded her arms and sulked.
“Spin again!” Tammy Sue said.
Katie Lynn spun the bottle, and as luck would have it, it aimed at her again.
“Promise,” she said without hesitation.
“Promise again?” Molly Kate said, mockingly. “Okay I want you to Promise that if the bottle chooses you again, you’ll choose Double Dare. And that you’ll actually do the dare this time!”
“Oh no…” Katie Lynn said, burying her face in her hands. “Okay, okay, I Promise.”
“Yaaaaay!” the girls squealed in approval.
Katie Lynn spun the bottle again. She crossed both of her fingers and prayed, and to her fortune, the bottle stopped on Lily Jane.
“Okay! Lily Jane! Truth, Dare, Double Dare, Promise or Repeat?” Katie Lynn asked.
“Truth,” the saucy redhead said coolly.
“Okay, um, how many boys have you kissed?” Katie Lynn asked.
Lily Jane shrugged.
“I have no idea. I lost count.”
“Really?” Katie Lynn asked, surprised.
“That’s the Truth.”
The other girls were convinced. Feeling foolish, Katie Lynn sat back.
Lily Jane spun the bottle, and it stopped on Amy Jo. Lily Jane smiled.
“Truth,” Amy Jo said.
Lily Jane leaned towards the party host.
“The Truth,” Lily Jane said. “Tell me the names of every guy you’ve slept with, in order of penis size.”
The girls shrieked loudly. Amy Jo bit her lip and began silently counting on her fingers while looking up at the ceiling.
“Okay, smallest to largest,” Amy Jo began, her thoughts in order.
The other girls, Katie Lynn included, leaned in closely.
“Roy Davis… Mike Beavers…. Dalton Miller…. Jeremy McCullough….. Steve Williams.”
The girls giggled.
“Jason Hicks,” she continued, and the girls laughed at the sudden addition. “Shawn Wells.”
She took a breath.
