You may have read the story of how Josh Miller and I met (The Ordinary Life of Josh Miller series), but it's now time for me to tell you my story, how Liv Cooper was sexually awakened and the search for something to satisfy me. Josh may have hinted at a few key moments in his story of my sexual awakening, but here I am to recount to you what exactly happened.
My story begins early, the same year I met Josh at his first Rovers camp. I had started at a new school after moving to Sydney from Brisbane. My mum decided to move us down here after the untimely death of my dad. He had been speeding on his motorbike when he was collected by a turning car. Everything in the city reminded us of him, so to move away from the grief, we started a new life in the capital of New South Wales.
Back in Brisbane, I had attended a coed public school, but seeing as this was my final year of school, Mum managed to fork out enough money to send me to an all-girls private school.
When I asked why, she said, "I want you to focus on your education this year. "
There was no need to clarify what she was getting at when she said that.
A few weeks into the first term of school, all of year twelve were sent away on a 'Leadership Camp'. The school wanted these few days to help teach us about stepping up and taking responsibility for our lives. We did a few team-building activities that were aimed at problem-solving and team leadership. The camp only lasted three days, with us staying in cabins for two nights. All the cabins had two bunk beds shoved into the small room. That was all there was, not even a small bathroom or toilet.
In those first few weeks of school, I had met a girl named Holly Gardner, and we kind of hit it off. It was unusual at first since neither of us had much in common. She was the athletic, outgoing kind of girl, whereas I was the more nerdy, quiet type. Somehow, we managed to enjoy talking with each other, and I started to hang around her during lunches and after school.
When it was announced that we were going to the camp, it was revealed that we could choose one partner to bunk with. I was very surprised when Holly asked me to be her partner, but being so new and having no other options, I wasn't going to turn her down.
So there we were, Holly and I bunking in the cabin, with two other girls, Emma Phillips and Lucy Parker. I had met Emma in passing a couple of times, and she seemed nice, but this was the first time I had met Lucy. My first impression of her wasn't great. Throughout the first night, she ignored Holly and me and focused solely on talking to Emma. So to say that the first night of the camp was awkward would be an understatement.
Before the second night began, Holly had come up with a plan to try to change the awkwardness in the room and to somewhat get back at Lucy for being so rude to us the night before. Earlier that day, she explained to me that it was somewhat common knowledge that Lucy was a prude and didn't have any experience with guys. I didn't ask how Holly knew of this information and just blindly agreed to go along with whatever she had planned for that night.
After devouring the late-night snack that the camp provided post-campfire, we all headed back to the cabin to get ready for bed. Having the toilet block and showers in a separate building meant we all had to go over there before we could get settled in for the night.
Holly pulled both me and Emma aside, asking us to stay back a bit, whilst Lucy left to go to the bathroom.
"What's going on?" asked Emma.
"I'll explain in a second," Holly said, indicating that she was waiting for Lucy to leave.
We didn't have to wait long for Lucy to grab her stuff and head off to have a shower. When the door to the cabin clicked closed, the three of us huddled together to discuss the plan.
"Before we plan anything, I just want to say I'm sorry for the awkwardness last night," Emma said. "She asked me to be bunk partners, and it was pretty hard to say no, as she really doesn't have any other friends. We've known one another since we were kids, and sometimes I forget how rude she can be."
"That's all good," I said, trying to convey to Emma that we didn't blame her at all for Lucy's actions.
"Yeah, all good," echoed Holly. "Besides, I have a plan to get her to open up to us."
She said that last sentence with a mischievous grin. I didn't have to wonder for long as to what she had planned.
"The last few times that I've been on a camp with my local scouting group, we've played a fun game that let all of us open up to one another and get closer. I want to play that game here, tonight."
Both Emma and I looked at each other, sharing that exact same confused look.
"What kind of game?" asked Emma.
"Spin the bottle," answered Holly. "I know that sounds like a child's game from when we were young kids, but the way I play it is much more fun."
This piqued my interest. I had heard stories back at my old school of people getting into these types of games and what had happened during them. But, not being very popular meant I never got the chance to take part. Perhaps now was my time.
"I know that sounds very vague, but I feel that it's a good way for us, a good way for Lucy, to open herself up and maybe make tonight a more pleasant experience for everyone," Holly continued, with a little grin forming on her lips.
It took me a moment to decide, before I responded, "I'm in. It sounds like it could be fun."
As I said, not being very popular had led me to miss out on a lot of things growing up, and one of those major milestones was to do anything sexual with anyone. I hadn't touched a guy's penis before. I hadn't kissed a guy before. Heck, I had never properly touched myself before. It was just something I had never been able to do. I'd heard of others talking about what they had done by themselves or with others, but it had never piqued my interest. That was until the opportunity of this game came up. The chance that something might happen tonight was calling to me, and I was ready for it.
"Same here. I just don't know how you are going to convince Lucy to play," followed Emma, hesitantly.
"I already have a plan in motion," Holly said, with that wicked grin returning.
With Holly's plan now in action, there wasn't much Emma or I could do to stop it, so we both agreed.
***
Emma and I had agreed to try and rush through our showers as quickly as possible so that we could get back to the cabin before Lucy. Meeting outside of the shower block, we headed our way back to the cabin, passing a grinning Holly, who was now headed out to the shower.
