After Molly had a sip of Tequila, Raven took the bottle and has a large gulp from it, slamming it back down on the dock with a hoarse exhale, coughing once as the harsh liquid burnt down her throat. The liquor was harsh, but it wasn’t the worst thing to drink straight from the bottle. The strong spirit topped up the drunken feeling building in her head quite nicely, a goofy smile pulling at her lips. It definitely helped that she was having one of the best nights she could remember having in a long time.

Raven giggled softly at Molly’s answer to her question, nodding in understanding. “Yeah, I guess I did make it too broad.” Although she didn’t necessarily agree with any of Molly’s choices, and was definitely baiting for the “You, of course” answer, she totally understood. Molly and Raven had always run in different circles, and probably had different tastes in many aspects, but that didn’t matter at the moment. There was definite chemistry there, and neither of them could deny it. Raven had never felt so comfortable with someone that quickly before, if even at all. It was somehow just so easy, and simple, sitting and talking with Molly, amongst other things.

As Molly asked her next question, Raven’s expression slowly started to flip, as she processed it. The more she thought of it, the more she realised the answer. She slowly, quietly, reached for the bottle of Tequila again, picking it up with a slightly pained look on her face. She started to bring it to her lips, before stopping. With anyone else, she wouldn’t have shared this story, but from everything she had experienced that night, if there was anyone she felt comfortable sharing with, it was Molly. “Do… Do you really wanna hear the answer to that…?” She asked softly, her voice barely audible, her hand starting to visibly shake as she held the bottle of Tequila, her face stared straight out over the horizon. “I’ve never told anyone this before… And I’ll share it with you… But, warning… It’s pretty heavy…”

Raven snickered softly, nodding her head in understanding as she listened to Molly’s story, remembering a similar experience from her own past. “We’ve all been there. I once woke up in a completely different town with no idea where I was or how I get there. That was certainly interesting.” She shared with a soft giggle. It wasn't the only time something like that had happened to her, but it hadn’t happened in a while. She’d become a lot more experienced and a lot better at handling her substances.

As they had several times already, the two girls just sat there for a moment, cuddling snuggly against each other as the day’s last light disappeared over the horizon, only the pale moonlight illuminating their surroundings, reflecting off the calm ocean. It was a beautiful moment, that could never be taken from them, and Raven loved that. And it warmed her heart, knowing that she was the one that Molly had chosen to spend her night with, and share this secret that had obviously been eating her up for a long time with. And share her first kiss with a girl with. All of that made Raven feel kinda a special, loving the idea that she was helping to make a real difference in someone’s life.

"Can't believe I actually finally snogged a girl,"

Raven couldn’t help but giggle at that, her heart damn near melting at the genuine excitement, and seemingly relief, in the girl’s voice and expression. It added to the already immense cuteness of the adorable blonde. Raven shook her head with a reassuring nod and smile. “Not weird at all, don’t worry. I totally understand.”

Raven raised a brow as she heard Molly’s next question, her face taking on a deep, thoughtful look. “Wow… That’s a great question…” She mumbled softly as she thought. It actually took her a while, having never really thought about that before. She hummed softly in thought, flicking her tongue piercing against her teeth a little as she thought over her answer. “Hmm… I don’t know if there’s anything I could ask that I would actually want the answer to. There’s a certain bliss in not knowing everything, ya know?”

After another moment of quiet, blissful reflection, Raven had thought of her next question. “If you could spend a night with any person, living or dead, real or fiction, doing whatever you wanted for the night, who would it be and what would you do?”

Raven’s eyes were lock on the girl beside her, unable to drag her attention away from her for even moment. Not that she would even if she could. She was definitely feeling the alcohol now, feeling significantly tipsier than before. All she wanted in that moment was to continue to lock lips with the beautiful blonde sitting with her, and it wasn’t long before her wishes were answered. Molly leaned in again, their lips meeting in a much slower, more relaxed kiss the before. A kiss that Raven happily returned, pressing snugly against Molly, as her hand gently moved down her face and rested on the side of her neck, her fingers lightly caressing the back her neck.

Raven breathed a blissful sigh as their lips parted, her breathing slightly heavier. She definitely wanted more, but was content to continue letting Molly drive the pace. “Mmm… We did indeed…” She mused softly, with a sly smirk pulling at her lips. She started to lean in for another kiss, their lips barely brushing against each other, before she pulled back, with a teasing grin on her face. “Well… What is the drunkest you’ve ever been?” She asked with a curious tilt of her head, her fingers continuing to gently caress and trace random patterns over her skin.

An ever so soft giggle escaped Raven’s lips, shaking her head slightly, although keeping her her face nestled gently against Molly’s, wearing a bright, content smile. “Not at all,” She responded to Molly’s concern, pulling her head back slightly, to take in the gorgeous blonde sitting beside her. “It was… Very nice.” Her thumb traced soft circles on Molly’s face, as the fingers of her other hand gently started to trail up her side, exploring under her shirt tentatively. She didn’t want to move, ever. She would happily just stay in that moment forever, just taking in the warmth and beauty of the other girl, enjoying the intimate closeness.

Another cute giggle left Raven at Molly’s compliment, before her smile faded for a moment as Molly withdrew a bit, looking back at the party. Raven shifted her hand to Molly’s other cheek and gently pulled her face back to look at her. “Of course not. This can be our little secret until you’re ready.” She replied with a genuine caring smile. She understood how hard coming out can be, and was definitely not the type to push someone into it. Raven had never really “came out” herself, not really feeling it was something that had to be announced. She just slept with whoever she wanted, regardless of gender, and let people make their own assumptions. But she still understood how it would be scary for someone like Molly.

“But… Let’s not worry about that right now, yeah?” She suggested, running a hand through Molly’s hair and tucking it behind her hair gently. By now, the sun had almost disappeared over the horizon, the last rays of sunshine bathing their surroundings with the last dull glow of the day. This was definitely a memory that she would cherish forever. No matter what happened after that summer, or even after that night, this would be a memory always imprinted into her mind as one of the most beautiful precious moments she had shared with another person.

Raven blinked suddenly as she felt Molly’s lips against her own, not surprised, but she wasn’t exactly expecting it either. Before she could respond, Molly had pulled away again, her face an adorable shade of bright red. Raven simply continued to smile at her, giving her a reassuring look that she hoped would help to calm the girl’s nerves. It was incredibly difficult to stop herself from jumping her on the spot, but she was determined to let things go at Molly’s speed, the last thing that she wanted was to make her uncomfortable.

It wasn’t long before it became apparent that her reassuring smile must have worked. She felt Molly’s fingers entwine into her hair, pulling her into a deep, passionate kiss that nearly knocked all the air out of her. That feeling… The feeling of passion and desperate hunger that was so potent in the kiss was just as intoxicating as the alcohol in Raven’s system, feeling almost twice as drunk now. She happily pressed closer to the other girl, returning the kiss just as fervently. She’d been waiting for the moment all night, and was everything she hoped it would be. Her free hand trailed up Molly’s arm slowly before cupping her cheek, caressing slowly as they locked lips. Her other hand had moved the hand it was holding to her own thigh, before letting go and moving to Molly’s waist, her fingers lightly tracing the bare skin there.

As their lips parted, Raven took a deep gasp of air, opening her eyes and staring back into Molly’s with a goofy, intoxicated smile. “So the rumours were true…” She mumbled breathlessly, panting ever so slightly. “Molly Hartell is a bloody good kisser…” She continued with a slight snicker, leaning her face forward a little, pressing their noses together softly in an affectionate nuzzle, their lips barely an inch away from each other. She wanted to dive back in, and get lost in the moment, but she was still sticking to her plan of letting Molly have the lead. Her willpower was getting lower and lower by the moment, though.

It took everything in Jake to not vent his frustration by screaming and punching the nearest wall. He reminded himself that this game was a popularity contest first and foremost, and being a sore loser wasn’t going to win him any friends. Instead he clenched his teeth, grunting softly to himself, but giving the other players, red or blue team alike, a congratulatory nod, with a forced smile. But oh well, it was the first challenge, there’d be many more, as long as he could stay in the game. But, he was now vulnerable, so it was time to start playing the social game. He couldn’t do that covered in mystery goo though, so it was time to change.

He ran himself through the shower quickly, washing off the goop and sweat from the day’s challenge, and taking a moment to reflect, and think of his plan for the day. He hadn’t really talked to anyone yet, other than brief introductions, but there were definitely a few that made a good first impression. There were quite a number of rather attractive women, that had definitely caught Jake’s attention. The biggest question on his mind was which one to talk to first.

After a few minutes, he got out of the shower, drying off and getting dressed, slipping on a pair of black skinny jeans, and a The Devil Wears Prada T-Shirt. He didn’t expect anyone to know the band that his shirt referenced, but if they did, it would be a good icebreaker. It’s why all the shirts he brought with him her band shirts, one of the only topics he was confident in talking about. After spending a moment staring in the mirror, making sure his hair looked okay, he left the bathroom and headed out to go mingle.

A loud call that promised Quesadillas caught his attentions as he neared the kitchen, which definitely decided his course. He smirked as he joined the pair there, nodding at them both in greeting. He gave Elias a friendly pat on the back, before standing beside him, though making sure not to get in the way. “Good work earlier dude, you crushed it.” He congratulated, his tone casual yet still seemingly genuine. “Need any help?” He asked, out of politeness more so than anything. He’d never been a good cook, but he was sure he could manage to cut some vegetables or something. He let out a soft snicker then at Jenna’s flirting, rolling his eyes a little, though giving her a smirk. “Probably why you lost.” He prodded with a teasing tone.

Raven tilted her head with a curious look on her face as she noticed Molly’s response to her answer. She seemed fine with the total number, it wasn’t until Raven broke it down that Molly looked troubled and looked away. She raised arched a brow a little, watching Molly intently, studying her face and body language. Something ticked in Raven’s mind, and she started to think that she may have figured out what it was that had been bothering her all night. Molly didn’t seem to be judging, she had an almost admiring tone in her voice as she whispered in response.

Raven probed a little bit more with her next question, which all but confirmed her suspicions. So, she’d never been with a girl, but obviously she was at least curious. That explained the nervousness. Raven wore her trademark sweet but cheeky smile, her heart melting a little at the lopsided smile she was given as Molly glanced up at her as she spoke. This girl that Raven once thought of as the confident popular girl, had so much more depth than she ever would have thought, and that just made her even more attracted to her than she was already.

A slight scoff escaped Raven’s lips as she rolled her eyes a little, shaking her head. “Not necessarily… More experienced, sure, but that doesn’t mean anything.” She replied sweetly, giving Molly’s hand another soft, reassuring squeeze. She subtly shifted a little closer to the other other girl, their thighs pressing against each other now. Raven took a moment to just enjoy the closeness, keeping her eyes focused on Molly’s face, smiling sweetly at her. This girl… She honestly intrigued her more than anyone else she’d been with up to that point. It took all the willpower in her not to claim her lips right then and there. Instead, she thought it better to wait a moment, wait and see if Molly would come out of shell enough to make the first move.

Raven screwed up her nose in a thoughtful expression in response to Molly’s next question. Raven always did her best to live without regrets, preferring to believe that everything in life happens for a reason. “My fashion sense when I was 14?” She joked with a slight giggle, before lifting her shoulders in a shrug. “I dunno, really… I try not to regret things… Sure, I’ve made some decisions, but the way I like to think about…” She paused for a moment to have another sip of her cider. “It’s because them that I’m on the path I am now. All the decisions I’ve made have led me to this current moment…” She took another moment, making sure to look Molly deep in the eyes now, her voice lowering to a husky whisper. It was so hard not to kiss her, but instead, she continued to speak. “And I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else…”

The way Molly looked away like that, Raven would have been a little worried if not for the fact that she hadn't pulled away from her at all. Their fingers were still intertwined, and they were still sat rather close to each other. She could see how much the other girl was blushing at her answer, relishing that reaction. It was the kind of reaction that hinted nervousness in possible reciprocation. At least, that's what Raven hoped it was. She liked making people nervous, but not uncomfortable.

Molly was just taking a sip of her drink when Raven launched her next question, and damn near did a spit take. Raven couldn't help but let out a small burst of laughter at that, giggling softly before taking a sip of her own drink. She shook her head at Molly's initial reaction, smirking at her. "Nope, we had our icebreaker round. It's time for the good stuff." Raven nodded slightly at Molly's answer, not at all surprised by it. Although, there was one part that piqued her interest a little. As Sam's name was mentioned, Molly might have notices Raven's brow raise and a curious smirk pull at her lips. Sam had never mentioned that he Molly had a thing... But your other friends with benefits isn't actually good pillow talk. She considered saying something, but thought it best to leave it for now. "Yeah, I think I know what you mean. Sex can be awkward when there's not enough feeling of some sort there."

The way Molly asked the next question made Raven laugh out loud for a moment, giving a half-laugh, half-sigh sort of thing, looking out over the water with a smirk as she shook her head slightly. "Oh, I see, just assuming I'm not a virgin?" She accused in a mock offended tone, looking back at her with a grin. "Nah, it's fair, that ship sailed along time ago..." She snickered softly, before drifting off into thought for a moment, humming thoughtfully. "The number though... Is it bad that it's taking me a bit to think about?" She asked with a slight giggle, rolling her eyes at her self. "Let's see... Umm... Off the top of my head... 13? No! 14... I think..?" She trailed off in thought again for a moment, counting silently on her fingers and mouthing words before nodding. "13. I'm fairly sure. 8 girls, 5 guys." While some people might get embarrassed at the topic, Raven seemed rather relaxed about it, not seeming at all worried about what Molly would think about her admittedly high tally. Of course, it did worry her a little, hoping that it wouldn't scare her away, but she didn't let it show at all.

Raven then took another moment to think of a question, before quickly deciding on one. "Have you ever slept with a girl before?" She asked with an intentional flirty tone, raising a brow at her with a sly smirk on her face. She figured she already knew the answer to that question, but she wanted to hear it from her, and to see her reaction to it.

Raven chuckled a little at Molly’s response to her answer, shaking her head. “Nah, not offensive at all. I promise you don’t have to worry about offending me.” She smirked, and followed Molly’s lead in finishing her drink quickly and easily, before grabbing one of the other two and cracking it open, instantly taking a big swig. She listened to Molly’s answer to her question intently, nodding along in agreement. It brought a bright smile to her face, knowing that Molly agreed with her, and quite enjoying her reasoning. “Good answer.”

Her sweet smile turned to a cheeky grin, unable to hold back a slight giggle at Molly’s question. It was still a fairly tame question, but there were so many ways to answer it that could easily start to heat things up. She took a moment to just grin at Molly, raising her brow in a questioning look. “Really, Molly? I’m a little hurt you even had to ask that question.” She teased, caressing the back of Molly’s hand with her thumb softly, giving it a gentle squeeze. “I didn’t think I was being subtle…” Her face adopted a heavily flirtatious smirk, hoping she would get the hint.

Before even giving Molly a chance to react, she instantly changed the topic, moving on to asking her next question. “But, it’s my turn, right? Are you a virgin?” She asked nonchalantly, as if it were no bigger of a question than Molly’s. Well, it wasn’t to her. Raven had lost her own virginity a long time ago, and didn’t really regret it either. She knew her views on sex were quite different to a lot of people, but to her, she never really understood why people made such a big deal about it.

Raven giggled softly, rolling one shoulder in a half shrug. “I’m trying to get us both drunk, my dear.” She corrected with a smirk before taking a long pull of her drink. She wasn’t exactly a lightweight, so she was only just starting to feel a little fuzzy, enjoying the light buzz. Although she definitely felt like speeding up a little. She’d been going rather slow, compared to how she normally partied, not wanting to push Molly too hard. Normally she’d have drunk twice the amount in that time, and had her first pill for the night. But, she was happy to go slower, because it meant getting to spend time with the beautiful blonde beside her.

Raven tilted her head a little in thought, as she thought over Molly’s question for a brief moment. It didn’t take her long. “It’s a cliche answer, but people who feel the need to get involved in everyone else's business, and share their hateful opinions. Like, is that hard to let people live how they want and mind your own business?” She asked with a slightly exacerbated gesture. As someone with more taboo tastes, people who always shove their opinions down other people’s throats really did bother her. But she’d gotten better at tuning them out as she got older. She took another sip of his drink, before letting out a soft thoughtful sound as she started to think of her first question. “Well, I normally jump straight to the good stuff, but I suppose we can wade in…” She teased softly with a snicker. “What’s your favourite time of day?” She asked with a raised brow. Though an almost jokingly tame question, it was a legitimate question that Raven always asked. She believed you could tell a lot about a person by their favourite time of day.
