I was lying in bed, looking at my loft through the frame of my feet: the small kitchen area, the couch sitting under the large bay window, and opposite that a wall was taken up by a long metal table, with beakers and jars taking up most of its surface. The lab would have to go. The cooking, the drugs, the experiment. I was going to give it all up for Nicole, for a chance at a real relationship.
I walked over to the work table. Not everything. I would keep just enough to cook up some small batch of the good stuff, some pure E, for us. No more giving it away. That was a good way for the Narcs to come knocking. Just us.
I looked at the remaining supplies. Enough for one last batch of my special concoction. It would be a shame to waste it.
One last time. A final blow-out.
I mixed and cooked and before I knew it I had a spray bottle of diluted mixture ready to go. I left it on the work table and made breakfast.
Was I really going to do it? I guess I was. I felt guilty, though technically I was not cheating on Nicole. But I was also not being fully honest. But I would always regret it if I didn't give it that one last try.
Wednesday night found me alone in my loft. Nicole was at her place, tired from work. We had plans for the weekend.
I grabbed the spray bottle and headed out.
I was dead sober and sweaty palmed when I pushed through the door of the rave. I was nervous, I knew I was here to push a final boundary. If this was going to be the last time I did this, I had to see how far it would go. No more pussy-footing around.
The doors opened and a wall of sound hit me. The world turned into a staccato pulse of light and images, bodies dancing, arms in the air, head thrown back and forth in time with the music. A large crowd filled the large industrial space that housed the rave. But I knew this place and cut through the dancers, out a side door and into an outdoor space. It was a fenced-in parking lot, but now it was taken over by a small bar and a lounge area. A few dozen people were standing around, taking a breather.
Everyone was dressed in their dance duds, all neon colors or bright white. Tonight had a theme, but I couldn't guess what it was... I kept walking.
Behind the lounge area was another room, a third the size of the main hall, where another DJ was spinning. This was it, my lab for the night.
The roof was lower, the room darker. A projector was spraying a wall with moving colors. The DJ table was lit, and a few lights on stands threw some reddish glow over the dancers, but that was about it. And the place was hot. The low ceiling trapped the heat; everyone was sweating, skin glistening. Several layers of clothing had already been taken off by most of the dancers.
Perfect.
I dropped my bag in a corner and pulled out the spray bottle. I moved into the throng of dancers and started spraying. Several people eagerly turned their faces towards the cooling water, drinking it in. I moved with the music, getting into the groove. I sprayed and danced, letting a thin mist of my concoction float behind me. I held my bottle up for all to see. Every other step someone would wave and turn their face to me, mouth open, and I would spray the liquid. Men and women got a dose, I was an equal opportunity dowser that night. I wanted to see where this night was going to go.
I did a round of the room, and then another. I finally ran out. I licked the last drop before dropping the spray bottle in my bag.
I started dancing with everyone else, letting the music bounce around my bones. I kept my eyes half-opened, trying to spot the first signs that the drug was taking effect.
The first sign was a shift in the beat. It was as if everyone dropped a notch, slowed down, found the bass and hung on to that. I watch the dancers near me. A young woman, a brunette dressed in white loose pants and a white bra, her hair pulled up with two white flowers, started running her hands over her face, trailing her fingers over her closed eyelids, over her lips. Her hips gyrated in slow arcs. She was feeling it, feeling the first wave.
A few men caught my eyes. I didn't know how it would affect them. I knew my reaction to the drug, but I had been prepared, knew the effect. Some of the guys were starting to droop, to lean forward and back, shoulders slumped. I was briefly worried, but they all suddenly, in time with the music, straightened up. But they were different now, moving from the waist. They looked relaxed, shoulders down. There was no more posturing, no more shoulders thrown wide, but instead a deep rolling sway of the hips guided them, while a small smile appeared on their lips. Apparently they found it as enjoyable as I had.
A woman caught my attention. She was pulling at her bra. It was a bathing suit top, really, a little stringy affair that tied around her neck. She pulled it off, revealing small breast that were sadly covered by a pair of pasties in the shape of stars. I was disappointed for a second, but I smiled. It was having an effect, that was sure.
A couple near me seemed to have triggered the next step. They were dancing close, forehead to forehead, their hands running all over each other's body. His hands were on her back, pushing up her shirt and bra, his hands locked in the fabric. Her breasts appeared, swaying loose from the bra, pale nipples hardening. Her hands clung to his waist, one hand sliding down the front of his pants and stroking his hardening cock through the thin fabric. She started to slowly stroke him, in time with the music. His hands stayed on her back,though one had dropped low enough for his thumb to strum her nipple. They were locked in their kiss, eyes closed, uncaring about the dancers around them.
More and more couples were getting explicit in their affection. One woman, back to her man, draped her arms around his neck and turned her head to kiss him. His hands were roaming all over her stretched belly, pushing her purple boy shorts down until they were barely hanging above the slit of her sex. Her breasts were out for all to see, two small round domes with thick dark nipples, her bra bunched around her neck.
I started to smile, my heart pounding in my chest. I cold feel my cock thicken, though the mild euphoria from the dose I had taken was dulling the sexual edge. It was more sensual, deeper rooted in the body, in the spine. The vibe had turned sexier, that was clear. But only half the dancers had been dosed, at most. I wondered how the others would react. Would I be able to tell? Or would they call the police if a full blown orgy started?
The dancers kept dancing, and the heat continued to rise. Most of the guys started taking off their shirts. More than could be blamed on the drug. The mood was catching, with the chemically enhanced setting the pace. Once a boundary was pushed back, everybody joined in. Now there was naked flesh everywhere, naked torsos, clothes dropping.
I started almost spinning. Everywhere I looked boundaries were being broken. The girl in the white pants had dropped her bra and was dancing topless now, her heavy breasts swaying in time with the music. Around her a few of the guys stared, big smiles on their faces. Many simply danced, eyes closed or too high to to care.
The music became harder, industrial. A thumping beat had everyone throwing their whole bodies in convulsions. The mood turned savage. Several girls started pulling at the hem of their skirts, dancing hip firsts, thrusting at some unseen God calling from down below. Hands clutched around the fabric, they raised the skirts further and further up. Most were wearing fashionable mini-skirts, so soon they were exposing g-strings and boy shorts, flashes of color between thighs slick with sweat. I stared at them hungrily, at the bare asses being revealed. I saw their eyes screwed shut, the nipples clearly poking through the thin fabric of their rave costumes.
The night had barely started.
