I’d never seen Tanner this agitated before. “Because it’s a carnival orgy.”
He shook his head and laughed. “I don’t think that’s why.”
“Of course it is. I did an amazing job.”
He smiled down at me. He lowered his lips to my ear. “They’re trying to get with you because you’re the most beautiful girl here.”
I felt my cheeks flushing.
“They’re trying to bang her because your girlfriend is hot,” said Chastity. “Maybe you should let her explore. It’ll get you one step closer to being free if she finds her match. She could probably just declare a tie in the size contest and fuck the whole team. Look at how hot they all are.” She gestured back at the glory hole wall which was currently being filled by the team. “Which is your favorite, Ash?”
What the hell is she doing?I didn’t want to fuck a whole soccer team. I just wanted Tanner. “Could you even imagine me walking up there and being stuffed like a Thanksgiving turkey?”Oh God. What did I just say?!
“Absolutely not,” said Tanner firmly.
“Then at least let her ride the carousel.” Chastity pointed over to the carousel. That was not at all a traditional carousel.
“No. I can literally see a dick sticking out of that bench. Is there a guy trapped under there?”
I stifled a laugh. Why yes there was. Well, not trapped. He’d asked for it. The carousel was filled with dildos and real guys sitting there erect.
Chastity sighed. “Fine. Will you at least let us ride the scrambler?”
Tanner looked over at it. “Well there doesn’t appear to be any dicks…”
“No!” I yelled. “I’m not riding that. Chastity, it’s meant to create random hookups. See those colorful squares on the ground? When the ride stops, you have to hook up with whoever is on the matching color to where you land. I can’t blow a rando. I have aboyfriend.” What was she not getting here? “Let’s ride the Gravitron instead.”
Tanner eyed me suspiciously. “What’s the sexy twist in there?”
“There isn’t one. It’s just the best ride ever. Why would you assume it’s something perverted?”
He laughed. “Because of literally everything else here. I thought for sure you’d have to mount someone and then let gravity do all the work.”
I pictured the Gravitron starting and the gravity pressing my back firmly against the wall. Climbing on top of someone like that. Plastered together hard. “Damn that sounds fun. Why didn’t I think of that?” I shook my head. “Anyway, not everything is perverted.”
I started pointing out more normal carnival fare. “There’s normal chocolate covered bananas. And corn dogs.”
“They’re both shaped like penises,” said Tanner with a laugh.
“Total coincidence.” Or maybe not. Had Nigel and I discussed that? Hundreds of faxes back and forth had gotten a bitconfusing. “Either way, Frankie’s booth isn’t perverted at all.” I pointed to it.
Frankie was manning a guessing booth featuring one of the pictures of Tanner and Rosalie at the Emerald Oasis. We’d blurred out a few of the faces, including Tanner’s face. And people were being asked to guess the identity of the people whose faces had been blurred out. It was the perfect way to get some answers without alerting the Society of a potential serial killer loose amongst us.
A chill ran down my spine and I turned around. But there was no one standing there asking to fuck me this time. I shook away the thought and turned back around. “Hopefully some people will have correct answers. Let’s go see if Frankie’s found anyone...”
“What do you think?” asked Nigel, popping out of nowhere.
I jumped. I guess he was the one that had sent a chill down my spine. “It’s perfect, Nigel. It really came together.”
“Didn’t it?” He smiled. “And speaking of coming together...I can’t wait for my special surprise.”
“Are you saying cumming or coming?” asked Chastity.
“You’re just saying the same word twice, Chastain.”
Chastity sighed. “Stop calling me that. You know my name is Chastity.”
Nigel rolled his eyes.
