“Sorry, I hope we’re not interrupting.”
Vander’s voice doesn’t sound the least bit apologetic as he and Anya make themselves comfortable on the trampoline only a few feet away, drinks in hand.
Kat stiffens.
“Captain Tisdale asked if we wanted to stop and snorkel more. I took the liberty of answering for everyone when I saidno fucking way,” Anya says in the most serious tone I’ve heard her use.
“I seconded it. But if you want to go, definitely let him know,” Vander adds.
“I think I’ve had my fill of water activities for the day,” Kat replies.
“Fine with me.”
“So I guess that means we’re ready to get drunk. I have the perfect idea,” Anya says, excitement in her tone. It takes everything in me not to groan and drag Kat off the bow. “Absolutelyperfect. We need Fedor to bring us bottles, and we’re going to play a game.”
“A game?” Kat asks, her tone wary.
Anya nods. “We’re going to play Never Have I Ever. It’s so much fun, and this is the perfect venue since we’ve got a few more hours of sailing.”
The suggestion of a game I remember playing my freshman year of college makes me wonder exactly how old Anya is.
“I don’t know,” Kat says.
“Come on, Kat, don’t be a wet rag. Have some fun.”
I’m about to intervene at the younger woman’s taunts, but Kat sits up, her shoulders going straight.
“Fine. Let’s play.”
It’s the challenge she couldn’t resist, and I have a feeling this means I’ll be carrying Kat back to our room.
“Excellent! Fedor, would you bring us a bottle of rum and a bottle of vodka, and some shot glasses?”
The deckhand looks surprised by the request, but at Anya’s smile, he snaps to attention and brings everything out within moments. The poor kid can barely look her in the eyes because he’s spent so much time staring at her tits and ass.
Kat’s posture is stiff and her game face is plastered on, so I’m the only one who can tell she doesn’t want to play any more than she wants to jump back in an ocean filled with sharks.
I’m debating putting an end to this when Anya passes out the plastic shot glasses and has everyone pick their poison. Kat and I pick rum, and the other couple chooses the vodka.
With each of us holding a shot glass of our chosen booze, Anya explains the rules of the game. “I’m going to start, and I’ll say something I’ve never done. If you’ve done it, you drink. Then the next person goes after we refill. Questions?”
She waits approximately two seconds before launching into the firstnever have I ever. “Never have I ever ... eaten a woman’s asshole.”
Fuck.She could have at least started easy.
Kat stiffens, her swift inhalation audible.
“Good Lord, Anya. Had to go for the jugular right away?” Vander tosses back his shot. “Not fair.”
She winks at him. “Just making sure everyone knows what a dirty boy you are.”
He rolls his eyes as he pours another shot.
Screw it.I toss back mine too, and Anya squeals in excitement.
“Another dirty boy. Why does that make me like you a whole lot more all of a sudden?”
Kat’s face is completely red, probably because it was her ass that was the subject of my answer.
