Unspoken Pleasure

sat there. Poor Colin, again, found himself sitting on the floor.

It was like wrangling cats, but Taylor was finally able to get everyone in front of the TV. She claimed her usual lounge chair. Tim, Courtney, and Zach took the couch. They'd moved the two kitchen chairs over to the living room so Zoe and Paige "OK people," Taylor said, "Here's how it's going to work this time."

"Take it off!" Tim shouted. Zoe looked over at him and glared, while Taylor, Colin, and Courtney shared knowing grins.

"In any case," Taylor said, "we're going to start with heats to determine seeding. So we'll do races in groups of four until someone gets four wins. That person earns a bye - an automatic win in the next round."

"That seems like a lot to follow," Paige said.

"Don't worry, it'll make sense as we go along."

"And whoever loses, drinks?" Zach asked.

"Sure," Taylor said, "Or something."

"I can't believe we're sitting around playing video games," Zoe said, "I mean, we're in our twenties for God's sake."

"You'd prefer a whine and cheese party, I suppose?" Tim asked. The room laughed. Zoe turned a little red then sunk back in her seat.

Tim looked around the room. He'd been heartbroken when Sydney dropped out, though she promised she'd join them the next time. They'd been texting quite a bit lately, actually. Nothing inappropriate, just the usual "hi," "jk," "lol." But Tim still made sure to keep his phone away from Taylor, in case.

Still, even without the stupendous blonde, Tim had to admit that the room was pretty damn attractive. With Colin's sister Paige and Zoe there, Tim assumed things would be tamped down, especially compared to the last time. But he still appreciated the possibilities.

Taylor was Taylor of course. She looked especially good in her silky, black sleeveless blouse and grey slacks. Courtney also looked like she'd dressed up a little more than last time. She had on a purple, long sleeve shirt under a dark grey sweater and a black skirt. And stockings! That was exciting.

Tim wasn't much of a Zoe fan, but he had to admit she was striking. Tall and thin, Zoe had an almost model body, prominent in all the right places. Her nose was maybe a bit big, and that constant frown did nothing for her, but Tim wasn't going to complain if he got to see more.

As for Colin's sister, Paige, well, she was Colin's kid sister. But Tim had to admit the girl was super cute. Very pretty. OK, Tim conceded, she was a totally fuckable coed, with good-sized breasts already poking out of her t-shirt and a tight, little bottom. The fact that Tim wasn't supposed to be looking only made things worse.

Tim hoped Colin was too distracted staring at Taylor to notice. And that was the point they'd reached, Tim realized, where he was hoping his married friend was checking out his girlfriend. They were all going to need so much therapy in their thirties.

The first race was Courtney, Taylor, Tim, and Zoe. Tim went back to Yoshi and Courtney took Dry Bones again. Zoe, shocker, chose Princess Peach. Taylor then made a big deal about how she'd been betrayed the last time by Donkey Kong and, seemingly at random, selected Wario

Actually, though, this was all part of her plan. Taylor had learned something from watching Sydney: if she slow played early, she could take everyone by surprise when things really mattered. Taylor knew she could get comfortable with the new character in the first few rounds (Wario was well-rated online. Yes, she'd done research) and then be ready to go once the clothes started coming off.

After a few weeks of rampant fucking, Tim and Taylor had both slowed down as the big day came near, like saving room for a big feast. The combination of the steady diet of sex and then going cold turkey for a week had Taylor edgy as fuck. Desperate to just dive off into a sea of dick. kid-sister Paige and cold-water Zoe be damned.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

But first, Taylor was going to let a few slip past her. So she trundled along happily, coming in third. Zoe finished well behind her. But the big surprise was that Courtney took first, and fairly easily at that. "I'll go pour shots," Colin said.

"Fuck that," Courtney said, "I want socks."

"Wait, what?" Zoe looked confused, "I thought we were playing for drinks."

"Taylor said it could be whatever we want and I've already done enough drinking."

As if this was the most normal request in the world, Tim pulled off one of his socks and so did Taylor. Zoe, seeing that the rest of the room was so calm about this, reached down and did the same. "Well this is weird," Taylor heard Paige whisper. Oh honey, if you only knew.

Round and round they went, chasing each other around the track and discarding socks, belts, and outer layers as they went. After five races, most everyone was barefoot, except for Courtney who had kept her stockings at the cost of her sweater and a belt. Taylor was in similar shape, but her lack of layers meant the next time she lost, she'd be showing skin.

Tim was almost shocked at how Taylor was racing so far - she'd yet to win even one. Tim was certain Taylor would buckle down on this next race, lest she lose her shirt.

Taylor did seem to put in an extra effort, but the dreaded blue shell showed up again and so Tim was able to take the win. Colin took off his belt and handed it over without a word. Zoe started reaching for her belt, as well. But then Taylor simply shed her satin, black shirt, revealing a bright blue bra that barely covered her tiny tits.

Taylor tossed her shirt at Tim, then took a little bow. As if in concert, the two kitchen chairs shrieked against the hardwood floors. Zoe and Paige both leapt up. Zoe grabbed Zach. Paige grabbed Colin. The rest of the room just stared as the boys were dragged away.

Paige pulled Colin into the bathroom and shut the door behind them. They could hear Zach and Zoe arguing in the next room.

"What the hell is going on here?" Paige asked. "Seriously."

Colin sat down on the edge of the tub. "I tried to warn you."

"You said you guys were playing Mario Kart. Not... whatever the heck this is."

"It's Mario Kart," Colin said.

"Then why is Tim's fiancee topless in there?"

"They're not engaged."

"Fine. Why are you and your wife getting naked in there?" Paige asked. She started pacing.

"It's just socks," Colin said, almost pleading. Paige just fixed him with a stare. "It's... Look, it's complicated OK? Courtney and I..."

"I knew it," Paige said, and banged her fist on the sink, "You're too nice, Colin. You think it's your job to protect everyone and it's not. If she did something to hurt you..."

"No. She didn't. Besides, it's none of your business. No one made you come here. In fact it was really obviously the other way around. Your car is here. You can leave when you're ready." Colin walked out of the bathroom, leaving Paige behind. As he walked back to the living room, he saw that the door to the bedroom was open. Taylor was talking to Zach and Zoe. "So it really is just fun," Taylor said, "I mean, we have to play for something, right? And this is safer than alcohol and probably a lot better for our friendships than playing for cash." Zach and Zoe both leaned back on the bed. Neither seemed able to move their eyes away from Taylor's chest. Colin smiled to himself.

"Can you at least, like, put those things away while you're talking to us?" Zoe asked.

"Nope, I lost my shirt fair and square."

"I don't know, babe, it kind of sounds like fun to me," Zach said, "I mean, it's just clothes. No one's, like, giving each other a blowjob or whatever."

"It's just so immature," Zoe said, like it was the worst pronouncement she could make.

"Look," Zach said, his eyes not moving from Taylor's bosom, "I want to spend time with my friends. If you want to go, whatever. I'll get a ride home from someone else." Zoe seemed to think about it, then came to a decision. "No. Whatever. It's fine. But you're going to make this up to me."
