Cherries

Kenyatta University Dorms, 2284.52, 1955 hours. It was rare these days that Se'tak got a Friday night off from work; rarer still was having a Friday and a Saturday night off back to back. But this weekend with all this free time on his hands he was hanging out in the dorm trying to figure out what to do. His buddy Jin was sitting on top of his bed bouncing a rubber ball off the opposite wall while he sat at his desk staring blankly at the comm. screen. Ken was, as usual, quietly working.

"We could go see a holo-flick…" Jin suggested.

"There's nothing good out." Se'tak sighed and drummed his fingers along the edge of the desk. He wasn't about to waste his hard earned money on a movie he didn't even want to see. "What about going for a walk around downtown and…"

"And what? We're too young for the bars and it's not like either of us have fake ID's; besides, you said alcohol doesn't do anything for you."

"I said it shouldn't affect me—I've honestly never tried. I'm only a ¼ Vulcan, you know."

"Yeah, yeah." Jin rolled his eyes and continued rhythmically tossing and catching the ball. "Well I'm all out of ideas. Man this sucks!"

"Agreed." Great. He might as well go back to the diner and pick up an extra shift if all they were going to do was stare at the 4 walls of his room all night. Se'tak was about to suggest as much when Ken finally spoke up.

"There's a party at Beta Kappa Nu*." The ball his friend had been throwing dropped unceremoniously to the floor. Jin stared at Ken as if he were a ghost. "What? I go out, I hear things, I do things."

"Are you going?" Jin asked, still in disbelief.

"Yeah, as soon as I finish up." Se'tak shook his head and laughed at his roommate; Ken was not amused. "What?"

"Man," he finally said, "You are just full of surprises."


Kenyatta University, Beta Kappa Nu House, 2284.52,2217 hours. They'd been at the party a little over an hour and were having a good time. Jin was already drunk and making a scene in the middle of the dance floor; he was a good guy but man-oh-man his friend could not dance! Ken was standing in the corner with his friends, a red cup in hand, clearly enjoying himself and the spectacle Jin was making. Se'tak looked over in time to see his buddy grab a cowboy hat off another guest's head and mimic riding a horse. The guy who owned the hat looked pissed! He was about to go help his friend out when she sidled up to him.

"Hey 'Tak. Want to get me a drink?"

Lauren Belleville. She was the girl that haunted his dreams. One of the few blue-eyed blonds in the school, Lauren was the ungettable get that had almost every man on campus drooling after her. He'd finally screwed up the courage to ask her out a few weeks ago after their African Lit. class—and while they did go to dinner she decided by the end of the evening that she wasn't as crazy about him as he was of her. Tonight, however, she seemed to have changed her mind. Maybe it was his new haircut—it decidedly showed off his 'exotic'-looking ears.

Ladies always loved the exotic.

He tried to set his nerves aside. Out of the corner of his eye he noticed something going on in the middle of the dance floor but didn't dare break eye contact with Lauren. Her eyes were like endless sapphires… "Sure. Anything in particular?"

She smiled back at him. "Something…fruity."

What? "Ok. Coming right up." Se'tak hurried off to the kitchen where he knew the booze was stored. A couple kegs were in the middle of the floor (and one of the frat brothers was doing a keg stand to the raucous cheering of his buddies) while bottles of liquor and stacks of large red cups lined the counters. He saw a guy near the sink shaking something up in a decanter then pour it out. It was definitely fruity.

"Hey."

The other guy looked up. "Hey…?"

Se'tak smiled and laid on the charm. "I was wondering if you could help me out. You see, there's this girl…"

"And you want one of these for her?" he asked, pointing at the cup.

"If you wouldn't mind."

His new acquaintance spent a few seconds considering the request then picked up a bottle and a new glass. "Alright, but I'm only doing this once so you better pay attention. I'm not spending the whole party bartending."

"Deal." Se'tak studied his new friend closely to see what he was doing. Pouring the frothy, fruity drink into the cup he then topped the concoction off with a Maraschino cherry. His work now done, the guy handed him the glass.

"Good luck, Bro."

"Thanks!" He was about to walk back out into the main room when a frat brother handed him a beer. Se'tak thought to himself, why the hell not?, and drank half the cup before finding his way back to Lauren's side.

Her pleasure was genuine when she what he'd brought. "How'd you know Pina Coladas were my favorite?!" she exclaimed.

He smirked. "Oh, you know," he replied, playing it cool, "I have my ways."

Suddenly she lifted the cherry out by the stem and he watched, enraptured, as she held it aloft between thumb and forefinger. All the blood in his head quickly traveled South as she slid her tongue out between her full, pink lips and sucked the fruit into her mouth. "Mmmmm…"

Five minutes later when they were on the sofa kissing she still tasted like cherries.


Two and a half Pina Coladas and a half-dozen beers later Se'tak noticed the party was winding down and offered to escort Lauren back to her dorm. She accepted and, being moderately drunk, leaned against him the entire walk home; he on the other hand existed in a pleasantly warm, buzzed state of mind throughout the all-too-brief trip. "Well…" he really didn't want to say good night.

Lauren palmed in the code and the door swung open to reveal an empty room, no roommate in sight. She walked in and, with her back still to him, held her hair off to the side. "Unzip me?"

Se'tak looked around the empty hallway in disbelief that this was actually happening. Without another thought he followed her inside and the door automatically slid shut.


Kenyatta University Dorms, 2284.53,0818 hours. Se'tak lay there—wide awake and whole body stiff as a board—in Lauren Belleville's bed, replaying the events of the last few hours in his head as she slept peacefully in his arms. Even in his semi-drunk state he could still recall with perfect clarity the feel of her soft hands on his abs, the press of her thighs against his waist, the feel of her lips around his…

She stirred in her sleep and he rolled over with her to accommodate her in the narrow bed. Their clothes from last night were strewn all over the place and Se'tak could see that her roommate's bed was still unmade. Whoever and wherever she was she still hadn't come home, and that was good, because he really didn't want to explain what his underwear was doing on her pillow.

Lauren pressed her backside against him and he felt his lok start to twitch and swell. After taking his virginity they went another 2 rounds and she wasn't shy about how happy she was with his stamina (as well as some of his other attributes); he only hoped it was as good for her as it'd been for him and that he hadn't hurt her in his haste. She stirred again and this time he let out a soft groan; he really couldn't hide his growing bulge any longer, but luckily enough she rolled over so they were face to face. Half-awake, with her make-up smudged Se'tak still thought her the prettiest girl in the world.

"Hi."

"Hi."

She lifted up the sheet and looked down at him then smirked. "Really?" she asked with a little surprise.

What could he say? 18 years of repressed hormones was the only defense he had against his raging hard on. But before he could say anything Lauren started crawling under the sheets, quite literally taking the problem 'in hand'.

It wasn't long before he climaxed. Again. And hard.

He knew she had her boosters but he was going on contraceptive shots immediately.


She kicked him out of her bed an hour later, but not before he'd extracted the promise of a dinner date later that night. Se'tak was still floating on Cloud 9 when he passed by the Administration building and heard a loud rustling from one of the bushes. His friend Jin came tumbling out not 2 seconds later, naked save for his underwear, and sporting a black eye. He then bent down and plucked the cowboy hat off the ground before putting it back on his head.

"Aww man," Jin crowed, still grinning, "What a night!"

Se'tak slapped his friend hard on the back and laughed. "You have NO idea!"


* To the best of my knowledge, Beta Kappa Nu is a fraternity that I made up.

A/N: Oh yeah, I went there; but seriously, would you expect anything different from Se'tak?
