Sam blinked. "You want me to go where?!"
"Sex speed dating." Bess repeated.
She had been his best friend for the last 3 years. The two were sitting on the steps outside a 7/11 eating ice pops in the summer heat. Mid bite she had pulled out a flyer and handed it to Sam, telling him he should go.
"No, no way. I'm not into that kind of stuff."
He crossed his arms, glaring at her. She tucked it into his shirt pocket anyways.
"You're the one who complains about not having someone to be with. Besides, this is for one night stands, so no commitment to anything."
He frowned, but then paused. 'Shit, am I really considering this?' He thought to himself.
"Fine I'll go."
Bess held up her arms in victory.
"Yes! I wanna hear all about it."
Sam punched her gently in the shoulder.

A week later and there he was. The necessary paperwork had been filled out online, and as he waited in the check in line, he took stock of the people around him. A rocker type girl with short pink hair, a few middle aged white men, some frat boys who were only here for the joke, etc. Each person picked out rubber bracelets to show who they were interested in. Blue for men, pink for women, green for non-binary and other identities, purple for any. Sam grabbed a blue rubber band, and was handed his clipboard of paperwork. Each clipboard had 3 items on it: 1. A criminal background check (everyone had signed a waver saying they were ok with sharing this information), 2. A brief blurb of who they were and what they liked. 420 friendly, cats or dogs, non-smoker, etc and 3. Their kinks. He had a hard time sharing the last one, so he kept a few to himself.
A whistle sounded when the last person checked in.
"All right everyone!" A voice called.
It came from a woman in her mid thirties, brown hair tied up in a ponytail and wearing simple clothes. A hoodie and jeans.
"First, let's run through how this will work. You'll pick someone to speak to each time the buzzer sounds, and you'll have 3 minutes to discuss. You can leave at any point and you cannot pair up with the same person more than once. If you'd like to talk further but don't want to leave the event, there are private lounges off to the side. Absolutely NO sexual activity in these lounges. There are cameras, we will know. I know yall are kinky, but let's take that home! Secondly, do not sexually harass or touch anyone without consent! This includes the staff. You will be detained and the police will be called. If you feel unsafe at any time, feel free to get a staff member. Thirdly, no smoking, drug, or alcohol use. We are here to make decisions in a smart, safe, and sober way. Now, let's have some fuuuuuuun!!!"
She drew out the last word in a sing-song manner. A buzzer sounded, and the room filled with excited chatter. Sam scanned the crowd, uncertain who to pick. The pink haired girl met his gaze, before looking down at his wrist. She seemed disappointed that it was blue, and turned to find someone else. He did have medium length brown hair and piercings, maybe he was her type? A young, obviously gay man motioned to a table and Sam conceded, sitting down then trading clipboards. They made idle chatter, but clearly Sam wasn't into him like he was to the other boy. After 3 minutes, the buzzer sounded and he found someone else. This continued, and he was having no luck. It was onto person number 5, when the doors opened.
"Sorry, sorry I'm late!" A man, similar in age to Sam but maybe a year or two older, went to the check in desk, and found his clipboard easily as it was the only one left. He had darker skin, and wore his hair in locs. Some of them had gold beads attached that clicked as he moved. He slipped on a purple bracelet, and locked eyes with Sam as he scanned the room. Sam looked away, cheeks flushed, but not before noticing his eyes were golden brown like tilled soil. That was who he wanted to meet. When the buzzer sounded, he jumped up from his chair and boldly handed his clipboard to the new man. If he didn't do it now, he never would. The other man handed him his.
"Um hi! Im Damien. You are?" Damien grinned, flashing Sam a warm smile.
"Oh, Sam. I'm Sam."
They went to a free table, and he looked over Damien's papers. No criminal record, lgbtqia+, 420 friendly, etc. and... the kinks. He paused, he hadn't actually looked at any of the other potential matches' yet, but something in him wanted him to look.
"Go on."
Sam jumped, he hadn't realized that Damien was watching him, so he did, nervously. He skimmed a couple words, then slammed the "about" page down, covering it. Heat crept into his cheeks.
"You're adorable, for such a tough looking guy." It was true, Sam had 9 piercings in total, on his face and ears, and was wearing an all black formal outfit, but at heart he was a softie.
"Do you want to get out of here with me?"
His heart pounded, but he nodded, and Damien took his hand in his. Sam's hand was smooth, and the other man's was rough. Also larger.
"You're so small." He said to Sam, and Sam's heart fluttered.
They returned the clipboards still holding hands, and only stopped once they got to Damien's car. The woman from before had winked at them.
"I'm only 15 minutes from here." He said, as they got in.
"Ok." Sam replied. "One minute." He flipped his location on, and then messaged Bess, telling her what was happening and sharing his location. She sent back a peach and a lips emoji.
As they drove, they listened to soft indie music. Damien reached over and placed his hand on Sam's left knee.
"Is this ok?" He nodded, but Damien shot him a look.
"I need a verbal confirmation."
"Yes its ok."
"Then how about this?" His hand moved to his inner thigh, but not too high, and gave it a squeeze, stroking his leg with his thumb.
"Y-yes." He squeeked out, turned on immediately. A chuckle came from the driver, and they sat like that in silence, the only noise from the radio until they were at Damien's house. He unlocked the door and let Sam in. It was a small but tidy place, one floor. A black cat came running to them, and Sam knelt down, letting the cat sniff him. It immediately flopped over, showing its belly.
"She likes you. This is Butter."
"Butter?" Sam snickered. "Why Butter?"
"She ate a chunk of butter as a kitten and had the runs for a few days. I started calling her Butter Butt and it stuck."
He could barely contain his laughter. Sam burst into tears. "Butter Butt! How could he be so cruel?" He scooped her up, and she purred happily.
Damien grinned a dazzling smile, "let me give you a tour of the place."
