"Spring break is supposed to be fun," said Karen. "So what are we doing cooped up in this stupid motel room? We need to go out!"
"Go out where?" Her friend Amy nodded toward the window, where outside a regular monsoon appeared to be in full swing. "Face it, babe, we're stuck right where we are!"
The two college freshmen had headed south in Amy's car only the day before, getting as far as San Augustine on their way to sunny Daytona where they planned to spend the remaining week. But this mini-hurricane had them holed up in a motel tantalizingly close to their final destination, and the delay was driving Karen into a frenzy.
"Look, calm down," said Amy. "We're stuck here for at least the rest of the day, so we might as well make the best of it."
"Doing what?" demanded Karen, a petulant look crossing her pretty face. "There's nothing on TV, and everything appears to be closed!"
"Alright, so it is. I guess that means we'll just have to entertain ourselves until this storm passes." With that statement, Amy reached into the suitcase she'd stowed under her bed, saying triumphantly, "Check it out! Monopoly!"
Karen's response was a groan. "Oh, I hate that game. It's so boring and predictable."
"It doesn't have to be," responded Amy with a smile. "We can always spice it up."
"Spice up Monopoly?" asked Karen. "And just how do you do that?"
"Well, one time back when I was in high school," Amy explained, "a group of us had a sleepover at my house and we came up with a version we called 'strip monopoly' where you divide up all the properties, and everytime you lose one you lose an article of clothing!"
"How dumb," sighed Karen. But at the same time the thought of forcing her mousy little friend to remove all her clothes intrigued her. "OK, I guess since there's nothing better to do I'll give your silly game a go."
Amy smiled again in response. The two girls were friends and dormmates, but had little in common beyond that. Karen was a bouncing blonde beach girl, 5'8" tall, with a dynamite body and flashing smile. Amy, while the same height, was quieter and more studious, with short dark hair and glasses. Also, unbeknownst to Karen, she was a lesbian.
In fact, one of the reasons she had agreed to drive Karen to their spring break destination was the chance to spend some time with this sexy blonde babe she'd had a secret crush on since she first saw her at registration back in August. And several times since then her mouth had watered as she'd watched Karen prancing around the dorm suite in bra and panties. Now fate had brought her together with this object of her desire, and the weather had succeeded in cooping them up together for at least the rest of the day. Amy wasn't going to let an opportunity like this go by her unchallenged.
The game started slowly. Both girls landed on each other's properties, losing money, then getting some back. This might have continued for quite some time, only Amy wasn't prepared to wait that long. She had cheated, sneaking a few extra $500 bills into her hand before the game had even started. The next thing Karen knew, Amy was building hotels while Karen had yet to build so much as a house.
"Where did you get all that cash?" she demanded. "And why am I doing so poorly?"
"I'm just good at this game, I guess," answered Amy. "It takes a lot of planning, and good strategizing, too."
"Huh, some strategy," scowled the pretty blonde. "If I land on just one of those I'll be in serious trouble. You just don't have the proper touch."
And, as if to demonstrate that very fact, Karen's next roll took her to Marvin Gardens, where Amy had just built a hotel."
"Pay up, babe," chortled Amy. "And thank you for checking in at the beautiful Marvin Gardens Hilton!"
"Darn it, I'm going to have to mortgage something," Karen winced. "But don't you worry, I'll get this money back soon enough. I'm not stupid."
Karen ended up having to mortgage two properties to come up with the necessary cash. And she never got it back, either. Two turns later, with her token now on St. James Place, also Amy's, and also with a hotel, Karen found herself removing her t-shirt as she lost a property in payment.
"This is so unfair," Karen pouted. "But don't gloat, bitch. I'm not through yet! My luck will change soon enough!"
