Susan almost spitted out the wine in her mouth when she heard the question. Thank goodness she controlled herself and swallowed the wine but choked on it and started to cough. Edward handed Susan a glass of water and made her drink some. But… he didn’t seem to stop them from asking this question. Susan felt strange that Edward didn’t help her to get out of this.
“What is the penalty for choosing not to answer? If it’s to drink, then I choose to drink.” Susan was prepared to drink a glass of wine as the penalty as she really couldn’t answer the question.
But Luke totally anticipated Susan’s reaction, grabbed her wine glass, and said, “We always knew that Ed was too intelligent for us to trick. So we devised this game. Thus, do you think that we’re playing this just to make you drink some wine?”
Susan was embarrassed by what he said.
“How about changing the question?” Although she said this to Luke, she was looking towards Edward, hoping that he will come to her rescue.
Finally, Edward raised his glass, took a sip, and asked, “This is a great question!”
A! Great! Question! Susan wanted to bite off her tongue! How can this be a great question? Even if Edward didn’t want to help her out of this, he shouldn’t be encouraging them to intrude into their private affairs… Since he thought of it that way, then she will enjoy the game.
Cough.
Susan coughed softly and cleared her throat. She pondered and then answered, “Hmm… the first time… there weren’t many interesting positions.” She intentionally looked at Edward as she said.
The first time she had sex with Edward they truly did not have many positions. Firstly, she felt awkward and was very tired. She slept the entire night and Edward had left for work when she woke up.
Susan looked coyly at Edward and he didn’t mind her answer. He simply raised his glass to take another sip and said, “Then I’ll leave you to decide how we’ll fuck in the future.”
This caused everyone to roar in laughter. Susan blushed immediately and she glared at Edward but he appeared very calm.
The flower was passed for the second time. It was strange that Edward was never caught with the flower but Susan practically was caught each time it was passed!
She was totally devastated. How was this letting them know both of them better? It was practically letting them know her better. And the questions became increasingly personal.
“Which part of Edward do you like most?” They asked.
Susan replied, “Face because he is very handsome.”
“What did Edward do to touch your heart?”
Susan answered, “When he gave me money.”
“If you had a chance to have an affair, will you?”
Susan looked at Edward for a long while and answered, “No.”
