Chapter 4 : Playing With Fire

Chapter 4: Playing with fire

Cia's next date with Steven was at a campfire. She was so excited she could barely keep from bouncing on her toes. Steven smiled at her excitement and led her towards a clearing in the woods where a lot of people seemed to be gathered.

A fire was already raging and there were cans of beer and used cups everywhere. So much for keeping things clean, Cia thought wryly which was the motto her school lived by.

Principal Summers would not be happy. She smiled to herself.

Sitting down with Steven, Alicia warmed herself while talking to Noah, Lee and Laisha. Noah seemed tipsy, the others were quite out of it. When had they had the time to drink so much? Cia shook her head holding a can of beer.

Her anxiety would not get the best of her today. She would enjoy this night, make out with Steven and head home with a head full of happy memories.

The forest looked welcoming to Alicia. She felt like she was at home, she always wondered why.

"Enjoying yourself?" Steven snuggled her closer.

"Yes. You know my love for forests!" Smiling gleefully like a child she kissed his cheek.

Steven had a ridiculous grin on his face. His eyes were glassy from too much drinking. Cia felt his hand move to the side of her breast and stiffened under the blanket he had covered them in.

Grimacing she tried pulling his hand down but Steven was stronger.

"Relax." He whispered. Breathe, just breathe. Her mantra since a year helped calm her nerves. It was time she experienced some sort of sexual intimacy even if it was over the clothes groping. She wanted to laugh.

Ever since her first dating disaster, her mind wasn't as easy with intimacy as it should've been. But it was going to change, Alicia vowed silently. No more hiding. She was scared about the embarrassment if somebody saw what they were doing, but a glance around told her peers were too drunk to care. Steven had completely covered them up with the blanket so it shouldn't be a problem.

She relaxed.

Once Steven realized she wasn't going to freeze up his hands continued to explore her breast. She was now slightly into it as his fingers circled over her nipple making her bury her head in his neck.

Burning pink cheeks were a dead giveaway of what they were up to.

I'm finally feeling something, Alicia thought ecstatically. Finally! No more the ice queen. Happily grinning she traced Steven's chest lightly, feeling him stiffen under her fingers.

"F*ck." Steven mumbled. "I would die to get a room right now."

Alicia threw her head back and laughed. The sound felt great to her own ears. Something heavy inside her lifted a little. This is my start, she smiled turning to Steven.

"Maye you can build me a treehouse over the summer." She smirked. "Complete with a small shower!"

Steven got the hint. Pecking her nose he stood up swaying on his feet badly, taking her with him.

"Need some wood for the fire," He was slurring his words, more drunk now and Alicia was scared he would fall over and hit his head, as she spied the area to see where they stacked the pieces of wood.

"I'll come with you. You're too drunk." Supporting him she started walking.

"Dude you're sloshed!" Someone said from behind.
