Chapter 30
Saturday, June 8th
3:00PM
Jenny, Toni, Bee, Kole, Joey, Garth, Wally, Roy, and Isaiah are all over at the Tower to celebrate graduation for Dick, Kori, Wally, Jenny, and Isaiah. The boys are all down on the beach setting up a volleyball net and corn hole. Raven, Toni, and Bee have changed into their bathing suits and are waiting on Kori, Jenny, and Kole. Jenny walks out of the bathroom changed into her bikini.
"Raven, do you have an extra beach towel?" Jenny asks. "Wally forgot to grabs ours at home."
"Yeah, I do in my closet," Raven says. They all walk to Raven's room. "Does Wally need one too?"
"Probably but that's his problem," Jenny replies. "He can ask someone himself for an extra towel." Raven goes to her closet to find a towel.
"Hey Raven," Toni says. "Do you have some ibuprofen? I'm feeling a headache starting to come on."
"Top drawer of my bedside table," Raven says from the closet. Toni goes over to the table and opens the drawer.
"What's this?" Toni asks.
"What's what?" Raven replies walking out of her closet with an extra towel.
"This drawing." Toni holds up the drawing of Raven that Logan drew.
"That's nothing. I thought you were looking for ibuprofen."
"This was on top of it." Jenny goes over to her and takes the drawing to look at it.
"This is amazing," Jenny says. "There's so much detail." Bee goes over to look as well.
"Wow," Bee says. "Who drew this?"
"It's nothing," Raven says. "Can you put it back now?"
"Come on, Raven," Jenny says. "Tell us who drew it. It's a fantastic drawing."
"Okay fine," Raven says. "But you can't tell anyone and you can't ever mention it."
"Deal," Jenny says.
"Agreed," Bee says.
"Tell us," Toni says.
"Logan drew it," Raven replies.
"Wow, really?" Bee says. "I never knew he liked to draw. He's great."
"He's never told anyone but me," Raven says. "That's why you guys can't mention it at all."
"We won't," Toni says.
"Did you ask him to draw you or did he ask if he you'd let him draw you?" Jenny asks.
"He asked if he could draw me but I told him he had to show me the drawing when he finished," Raven says. "He doesn't like to show anyone his drawings."
"Why not?" Bee asks.
"He doesn't think they're great," Raven says.
"How can he not?" Jenny asks.
"He's critical of himself," Raven says.
"He should still realize how talented he is," Bee says.
"I've told him," Raven says. "We should go see if Kori and Kole are ready." The others agree. Toni puts the drawing back in the bedside table then they all go to find Kori and Kole. They then go down to the beach where the boys are waiting for them. They split into 2 teams and start playing a game of volleyball. Once they finish, Joey, Kole, Dick, and Kori decide to play corn hole. The rest of the group all goes into the water. Wally grabs a beach ball and brings it into the water.
"You two have to participate this time," Jenny says to Raven and Logan, smirking. "No going off on your own again hidden from the rest of us."
"Ooh, Rae Rae and Logy have been sneaking off together for some alone time?" Roy says, wiggling his eyebrows.
"Last time we were here, they went off on their own and when they came back, Raven's face was flushed and she had a hickey on her neck," Jenny says.
"Ooh what naughty things were you doing to Rae Rae, Logan?" Roy asks.
"Stop calling me that," Raven says. "And we would never tell you, or anyone. We like to keep things about our lives private, unlike you."
"What's wrong about being an open book?" Roy asks. "Maybe it'll give you some ideas."
"You don't need to be giving them ideas," Vic says. "They may be old enough to make their own decisions but Raven is still like my little sister. I don't need to hear about any ideas you might give them."
"They can do whatever they want," Roy counters.
"They can," Vic agrees. "I just don't need to hear about it."
"You mean you don't want to hear me tell Logan that a lot of girls like when a guy goes down on her and uses his tongue—"
"Okay, that's enough," Bee says. Roy laughs.
"Maybe you and Wally can talk sometime, Roy," Jenny says. "He's pretty good right now but what's wrong with some more ideas?"
"I'm going to go back up to the beach if you keep this up," Raven says.
"Okay, okay," Jenny says. "We'll stop."
"For now," Roy adds. They all start hitting the beach ball around, trying to keep it from hitting the water. After finishing their corn hole game, the others join them. With all of them in the water, they decide to play chicken. The teams are Kori and Dick, Bee and Vic, Raven and Logan, Jenny and Wally, Toni and Isaiah, and Kole and Joey. Roy and Garth are acting as referees. Kole and Joey are eliminated early, as are Toni and Isaiah. Jenny is able to knock off Bee and Raven almost falls off but manages to stay on Logan's shoulders and push off Kori. Her joy is short-lived as Jenny quickly comes up and knocks down Raven. Roy and Garth then both pull Jenny down into the water. They all go back up to the beach and lay out on their towels to dry off. They then go inside and change out of their bathing suits. They all meet back up in the living room and order pizzas. After eating, they decide to play Truth or Dare. Vic grabs and empty bottle from the kitchen.
"You have to spin the bottle to determine who you are asking," Roy says. "And if you chicken out of a truth or dare, you have to take a shot."
"What if we don't drink alcohol?" Kole asks.
"Don't chicken out," Wally says. "I'll go first." He spins the bottle and it lands on Kori. "Truth or dare, Kori?"
"Truth, please," Kori says.
"Okay…when did you and Dick first have sex?" he asks. Dick chokes on the pop he just took a drink of.
"I like how this is starting," Roy says.
"On my birthday last year," Kori replies. She spins the bottle and it lands on Joey. "Friend Joey, do you wish to have the truth or the dare?"
"Truth," Joey replies.
"What do you think of my cooking from my homeland?"
"It requires an acquired taste and unique palate," Joey says. "I do not have this unique palate." He spins the bottle and the game continues. When Wally spins again, it lands on Toni.
"Truth or dare, Toni?" Wally asks.
"Dare," she replies.
"I dare you to spin the bottle and kiss whoever it lands on," Wally says. "The kiss has to be on the mouth and has to last at least five seconds."
"Okay." Toni spins the bottle and it lands on Jenny. She moves over to her and they kiss. After ten seconds, they break apart and Toni goes back to her seat.
"Not bad, Monetti," Jenny says.
"You're good, too," Toni replies. She spins the bottle and it lands on Isaiah. "Truth or dare?"
"Dare," Isaiah replies.
"I dare you to kiss me," Toni says. Isaiah moves over to Toni and kisses her. They break apart after a few seconds.
"Who's the better kisser, Toni?" Garth asks.
"It's not your turn and I didn't say "truth" but if you must know, they are both good kissers," Toni says. "But I prefer kissing my boyfriend."
"Woah, woah, woah," Bee exclaims. "Boyfriend? When did this happen?"
"About a week ago," Toni says. "We were planning on telling you guys today. This seemed like the best time." Isaiah spins the bottle to continue the game and it lands on Roy.
"Truth or dare, Roy?" Isaiah asks.
"Dare," Roy says.
"I dare you to spin the bottle and take a shot from the belly button of whoever it lands on," Isaiah says.
"Do I get to choose the alcohol?" Roy says.
"Yes."
"Okay then." Roy spins the bottle and it lands on Garth. "Darn, I was hoping for Raven."
"Why?" Logan asks.
"Because I know it would bother both you and her," Roy says. "Shirt up and lay back, Garth."
"Not sure I like your word choice there," Garth says, but lays down and pulls up his shirt. Roy pours scotch into Garth's navel then slurps it up. Roy spins the bottle as Garth sits up. It lands on Jenny.
"Truth or dare, Jen Jen," Roy says.
"Truth," Jenny says. "I don't want to know what kind of dare you would come up with."
"What is the kinkiest thing you and Wally have done?" Roy asks.
"Probably when I let him tie me up and tease me," Jenny says.
"Elaborate," Roy says. "Just tying you up isn't very kinky."
"He tied my hands to the headboard and my legs spread and tied to the bed posts. He then was teasing me with his hands, his tongue, a feather, a vibrator. Whenever he got me close to coming, he backed off and went back to teasing me. He did that for over an hour. When he finally pushed me over, it was the biggest orgasm I've had. After that, he finally fucked me and made me come two more times before he did."
"Would you let him do it again?"
"Hell yeah. Being denied is torture but finally getting there is amazing."
"I thought I said I didn't want to hear about any of this," Vic complains.
"As I recall, you didn't want to hear about my sexual experiences," Roy says. "Nothing was ever said about anyone else's."
Vic grumbles but doesn't say anything else. Jenny spins the bottle and it lands on Raven. "Truth or dare, Raven?" Jenny asks.
"I guess dare," Raven says. "You're just as bad as Roy with these."
"I take that as a compliment," Jenny says. She moves closer to Raven to whisper in her ear: "I dare you to ask Logan to draw you again. But this time, without wearing any clothes." Raven's eyes widen and she blushes as Jenny moves back to her seat.
"I'm not doing that!" Raven says.
"Take a shot then," Jenny shrugs.
"I don't drink," Raven replies.
"Then you need to do the dare."
"What was the dare?" Toni asks.
"Nothing. It's not happening."
"Come on, Raven. Just do it."
"I can't."
"If it's something dangerous, she doesn't have to do it," Bee says.
"It's not dangerous," Jenny replies. "It's not even that bad."
"I can't do that," Raven says.
"Okay, break for five minutes," Jenny says. "Raven, come with me and tell me why you can't do this dare." Jenny and Raven get up and leave the room. Raven takes Jenny up to her room so they won't be overheard. "Why can't you do the dare? It's not that hard."
"I can't." She sits on her bed and puts her head in her hands.
"Raven," Jenny says sitting next to her. "What's wrong?"
"I can't do the dare. It wouldn't just embarrass me; it'd embarrass him too and expose something that he's only ever told me."
"So if I said you could do the dare when it's just you and him, would you do it?"
"I still can't."
"Why not?" Raven doesn't say anything for a minute then speaks so softly that Jenny has to lean down to hear her.
"He's never seen me like that."
"And you don't think he'd want to? Or you don't want him to see you naked?"
"I don't want him to think we're moving too fast."
"Didn't you say that he's been patient and won't do anything more than what you want?"
"Yeah. He's even asked if he went too far once when I told him to keep going."
"That's a story I want to hear but now's not the time. What's the farthest you've gone with him?" Raven blushes and doesn't say anything. "Okay…so he hasn't seen you naked yet. Has he touched your breasts or between your legs?"
"He's touched my breasts."
"Just over your clothes? Or under?"
"He's gone beneath my clothes."
"Just his hands or has he used his mouth? Has he stimulated your nipples?"
"Just his hands and yes he has."
"Has he touched you south of the border?"
"No."
"Have you touched him?"
"No."
"Do you want to?"
"I've…thought about it. Both me touching him and him touching me."
"What's stopping you?"
"I'm scared."
"Of what?"
"My past experiences."
"Malcolm?"
"Yes."
"Logan is nothing like him. He will not do what Malcolm did to you. He is head over heels for you. He will love anything you do to him and he will worship you."
"You think so?"
"Absolutely. And as for this dare, I think it will shock him at first but he will love drawing you and it will be amazing. And who knows what would happen next."
"How do you know if you're ready to take that step?"
"I don't know how to explain it other than it will feel right. You'll start off with things you've done before and are comfortable with but you will gradually move forward and you won't want to stop. You have complete trust in the person you are with and such a strong attraction toward them. It might be love, it might not, but you will want to share your body with them."
Raven is quiet for a few minutes, thinking about everything Jenny has told her. She sits up straighter and looks at Jenny. "Thank you."
"What're friends for? Any time you need to talk, about anything, just let me know. I know Kori and Bee are around a lot more but I can be here when you need me."
"Thanks. Those two are like sisters to me but I can't see myself talking to them about what we just talked about."
"If they're sisters, what am I? A next door neighbor?" Jenny jokes.
Raven smiles. "Something like that."
"So are you going to do the dare?"
"I will, but not in front of everyone and probably not tonight, honestly."
"Okay, how about within the next week? And you have to text me to let me know that you've asked him."
"That's fair. I'll do that."
"Good. Now, we should get back downstairs." They both get up from the bed and go back down to the living room.
"Finally," Roy says. "So what was the dare and is Raven going to do it or take a shot?"
"The contents of the dare are between me and Raven, and she will do the dare," Jenny says. They both sit down in their spots. "Just not tonight."
"Then how will we know if she ever does the dare?" Garth asks.
"She will text me when she completes it," Jenny says. "We're just not telling you what the dare is."
"You're no fun," Roy grumbles. Raven spins the bottle and it lands on Dick.
"Truth or dare, Dick," Raven says.
"Dare," Dick replies.
"I dare you to take a shot of pickle juice," Raven says.
"Nope," Dick says. "Can't do it." He pours a shot of tequila and drinks it.
"You'll drink tequila but not pickle juice?" Garth asks.
"I hate pickles," Dick says. "Can't stand them." He spins the bottle and it lands on Logan. "Truth or dare?"
"Dare," Logan says.
"I dare you to spin the bottle and whoever it lands on, you have to put whipped cream on their chest or stomach and lick it off while you are between their legs," Dick says.
"Sure, make that more awkward," Logan says. He spins the bottle and it lands on Raven.
"And I can't say no?" Raven asks.
"Nope," Roy says before Dick. Dick shrugs then gets up to grab the can of whipped cream from the refrigerator. "Besides, at least it's your boyfriend who's licking you."
"You somehow make everything sound dirty," Bee says. Raven doesn't say anything as she lays back and lifts her shirt to expose her stomach. Logan sprays whipped cream on her stomach; she flinches at the coldness. He then lays between her legs and starts licking up the whipped cream. When he's finished, he kisses her hipbone above her shorts then sits up. She puts her shirt down and sits up as well. They continue playing for another hour when Kole and Joey leave because it's getting late. Toni and Isaiah leave shortly after them as do Roy and Garth. Jenny and Wally decide to spend the night. They all clean up the living room then go to their rooms to sleep.
