"Get off me!"
Tom was down on the floor, his slender arms pinioned by the triumphantly grinning Jake. Both friends were stripped down to loose running shorts. Their smooth chests were glistening lightly with sweat after their impromptu wrestling match.
Around them, the others whooped and guffawed. All except Chris, always the serious one: "Come on, Jake, that's enough now."
Jake relished the moment a little longer. Still sitting astride Tom, the smallest in the group, he leaned right in and planted a kiss on his face. Tom scowled and blushed furiously as he wriggled out from under Jake. Everyone (except Chris) laughed louder than ever.
"Count yourself lucky, mate, if you were a girl you'd be getting a lot more than a peck on the cheek right now!" grinned Jake wolfishly.
"I dunno, I bet he'd welcome any chance to pop that cherry! Not like it's going to happen any other way!" Matt, Jake's constant sidekick, chortled.
It was a long, hot, lazy summer, the last the friends would spend together before they went off to uni the next month. As usual, when they had nothing else to do, they'd ended up round Matt's house. His parents had a summerhouse at the bottom of their garden where they could play video games, watch movies and joke around undisturbed until the early hours of the morning.
The six of them had known each other since they were kids and over the past year had all celebrated turning eighteen together (most recently Tom, just a few weeks back). Chris was the group's unofficial leader, and always a little protective of Tom. Jake, meanwhile, was the self-appointed joker. He delighted in saying the weirdest or most inappropriate thing at any opportunity. And he was idolised by Matt, who took his cue from Jake in pretty much everything he did. The group was rounded out by twin brothers Lucas and Raf. The only way to tell them apart was that Lucas did most of the talking.
The clock on the wall showed the time was well past midnight but it was still far too hot to sleep. And the guys were wide awake and bored. There was something strange in the air: not just the smell of sweat, cheap deodorant and cheap booze, but a simmering, restless energy, a tension begging to be released.
Jake must have been able to sense it. Because out of nowhere, he suddenly said, "OK lads, I think it is time for one truly fucked-up dare."
Now that got everyone's attention. Jake paused for dramatic effect.
"So, this is one I heard from another mate. One of us gets very lucky tonight, one of us gets very unlucky."
Matt giggled in anticipation. Everyone else stayed silent. Jake grabbed a board game from the shelf, rummaged around inside and produced six coloured tokens: four white, one red, one green.
"Each of us takes one of these tokens without looking. Whoever draws the green token, gets to have their dick sucked..."
Everyone's ears pricked up at that. Chris felt his own dick immediately stirring in response.
"... and whoever draws the red token, is going to be doing the sucking."
The room erupted, with everyone yelling all at once. "What the fuck, man! We're not gay!" exclaimed Chris. Even Matt seemed shocked: "Whoa, Jake! Are you serious?"
That just made Jake grin even wider. "Ah, come on you pussies, what's life without a bit of risk? Five in six chance you won't have to suck anyone's dick. One in six chance you finally get to experience your very first blowjob."
Again, Chris felt a brief involuntary twitch in his pants at that idea.
"Yeah, but one in six chance we'd have to suck someone else's dick!" pointed out Tom.
"And what if we draw each other? We're fucking brothers, man!" protested Lucas. His twin Raf nodded.
"Well, not like anyone's going to get pregnant, is it? And in your case it's hardly that different from sucking yourself off. Let's be honest, any of us would do that in an instant if we could," replied Jake.
Both twins shook their heads in disbelief.
"But look, like I said, I heard about this from a mate," Jake continued. "They did it at a party before when they were absolutely wasted and my mate said it was THE hottest thing he'd ever experienced. Best orgasm ever. Any of you ever had a danger wank?" Matt nodded, then blushed a little. "You know, when you have a wank even though there's a risk you could get caught? The danger is what makes it feel so, so much better. Same principle. You take the risk, one lucky person gets the reward. A truly sweet reward."
Everyone continued to protest. No fucking way! They weren't gay! What the fuck was Jake thinking? And yet -- could Chris detect some hesitation? Was everyone really as dead set against the idea as they were claiming? Or were they just protesting for the sake of appearance?
