It doesn't take much to mess up plans that you've had for weeks. Brian and I were both eighteen. We're reasonably mature adults, capable of making up our own minds about matters that affect us. We've been going steady for a while and we'd both be graduating this year.
Not only have we been doing OK at school but we also both had jobs lined up for when we left school. You can't say that we haven't been responsible and planned ahead.
One of the things that we took responsibility for was our sex-life, or lack thereof in our case. We had made the mature decision to wait a while. The night of the Prom was upon us and we'd both agreed that Prom night would be a suitably romantic occasion to finally pledge our love for each other.
Another big advantage of Prom night was that our parents wouldn't know when we left the Prom. They'd only know the time we got home. If we left the Prom a little early and arrived home a little late they wouldn't really notice. It was with this in mind that Brian had thoughtfully booked a hotel room for Prom night.
Prom night rolled up and we went along. I looked fantastic, wearing a low-cut strapless evening gown, the front held up by a nice sized bust, a bit of luck, and the discrete use of some double sided tape. (I couldn't really where a bra with that gown.) Brian looked really handsome in a tuxedo. It wasn't your common all black tuxedo, either. Black trousers, of course, but the coat was white with black trimmings. Personally, I think Brian had the nicest tuxedo at the dance.
We took Brian's car to the dance. Brian's dad was willing to spring for the hire of a limo but we declined. It's one thing to sneak off to the hotel in our own car. Imagine directing a chauffeur to take us to a hotel for an hour or so of naughty time. I don't think so.
We attended the Prom and we danced and socialised. We partook of the nibbles and drank the punch (unspiked and watched by zealous guardians) and generally had a good time. We weren't joined at the hip, of course. Several times during the night we separated, dancing with other partners, always eventually gravitating back together.
At the time that we'd decided to make our early departure we were currently separated, so I went looking for Brian. He came in with a couple of his mates and they were laughing and carrying on and having fun. I eased up to Brian and suggested that maybe it was time we got moving. He had a big smile on his face and practically ran me out the door towards his car.
The trouble started when we got outside. Brian made a gasping sound and staggered slightly, leaning against a tree. I'm all, "what's wrong?" but he just waved it away. "Slightly dizzy," he said, dismissing it. "Let's go."
So we went, and Brian wasn't walking a straight line. I was starting to get just a little bit pissed.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked. "You can't be drunk. The punch was harmless."
"That it was," agreed Brian. "That it was. You should have tasted the vodka that Serge had, though. Pure Russian vodka at its finest. By a strange chance he had several bottles in his car. Nice thing about vodka, no smell, so the teachers won't spot it on your breath."
I had news for him. Maybe I couldn't identify the scent as vodka but now that I knew he'd been drinking I could smell the alcohol. I wonder how many he'd had.
"I'd better drive," I told him. "I know you're sober but the cops do like pulling teens over and breathalysing them. If I'm driving they'll be right out of luck."
Brian was agreeable. He was rather a lamb when intoxicated. I wondered just how intoxicated he was. I found out fast enough. We got in the car and he was out cold before we even left the school grounds.
As far as I was concerned I just wanted to swear, so I did, loudly and vehemently. A lot of good it did. Brian just started snoring. Even if I got him to the hotel I'd be struggling to get him up to the room. And the chances of him performing once he reached the room? I'd rate that at a big fat zero. My romantic night was shot.
I drove to Brian's place. Hopefully his father would be home. He could drag Brian off to his bed and give me a lift him afterwards. If he wasn't home I'd have to try to get Brian inside and borrow his car. I'll tell you this; if I had to help him inside I'd push him through the front door and just leave him on the floor. No way was I going to drag him down to his bedroom.
I was a bit ambivalent about hoping Brian's father would be home. David was a nice man, or seemed to be. He'd always been unfailingly polite to me, never making a pass or giving out with smutty innuendos, but he still made me awfully nervous. Why? Let's see if I can describe this feeling. You're walking casually along the street. Suddenly a whacking great tiger steps out of the yard of a house, looks at you, nods, and crosses the road, going elsewhere, expressing no further interest in you. The tiger may not care about you but you are most certainly aware of the tiger. That's the feeling that David gave me. Dangerous if aroused, I guess.
I pulled up in Brian's driveway, hopped out, and went and rang the bell. For good or bad, David was at home.
"Um, I need some help with Brian," I muttered. "Ah, someone seems to have spiked his drink and he's out cold. Could you please help him in and give me a lift home afterwards?"
"Spiked his drink, huh? I'll have to have a go at the teachers about that. They're supposed to watch out for that sort of thing. No-one spiked yours, I see. Just bad luck for Brian, I guess. Come in and take a seat. I'll go and bring Brian in."
I went and sat on the edge of the couch while David strolled out to the car. He was back faster than I expected, Brian slung over his shoulder in a fireman's carry. David really was quite a strong man. Deceptive, too. He just didn't look as big and as strong as he obviously was. He still made me nervous.
He gave me an odd look as he passed and I just knew that he knew Brian was drunk. He came back a couple of minute late and stood in the doorway, looking at me.
"How many drinks did they spike?" he asked, a nasty little smile on his face. "You don't get that plastered with one shot of vodka. More like half a bottle."
"What makes you think he's had vodka?" I protested. "You can't smell any vodka on him."
"No, but I can smell the alcohol. The fact that I can't smell any distinctive drink tends to point to something without a strong odour and that puts vodka right at the top of the list. How much did he have?"
I sighed. "I don't know. I didn't know he'd had any until we were leaving and then he admitted that Serge happened to have a few bottles of vodka in his car and he'd sampled some."
"Well, he'll regret it in the morning, especially after I've had a few words with him."
He'd certainly damn-well regret it tomorrow after I'd had a few words with him. Tonight was supposed to end with a romantic prince, not a drunken pig. I rose to my feet, assuming that David would take me home now.
"Well, your night certainly didn't finish the way you hoped," David said, sounding sympathetic. He had no idea how right that statement was.
"Yes, well these things happen," I said with a little sigh, unable to help feeling just a little let down and despondent.
"As Brian stuffed up, I feel it's my duty as his father to make it up to you," he told me, moving closer to me.
While I was trying to work out what he meant by that he'd reached under my arm and unzipped my dress, letting the top fall away and leaving my breasts exposed. That was wrong on so many levels. He shouldn't have been able to even see the zip, let alone undo it. And he'd flicked open the hook and eye at the top of the zip. The top still should have stayed in place, even unzipped, what with the double sided taste holding it on.
I froze, looking down at my breasts jutting firmly out into the world, two white mounds tipped with strawberry pink. My mind tried to hook onto what had happened. He'd reached out, the zip went down, the top stayed up, his finger at my cleavage tugged and pulled the dress loose from the tape. That bastard.
I hastily raised my hands to cover my breasts, only to find his there first. Not to fondle them, but to remove the tape on them. I tried to slap his hands away.
"What do you think you're playing at," I hissed, and if you think you can't hiss a sentence with no 'S's in it, think again. I managed.
"Making up for Brian's stupidity," David said, and now, tape gone, his hands were starting to fondle my breasts.
"Take your hands off me. Brian wouldn't be doing anything like that."
"You're kidding? Are you telling me that he booked a hotel room so the pair of you could sit chastely and swap a few kisses?"
