Alba POV
I don't know what happened inside that wardrobe but my body was about to explode. Ten minutes with Myria glued to my body is too much for my physical health. I felt like I was going to faint and I wanted to kiss her so badly that it even hurt physically. When she grabbed me around the waist my legs lost the little strength they had and I thought I would fall to the floor, that I would melt in her arms. If they hadn't opened the door I would have kissed her and I don't know how I would have been able to stop for the rest of the night.
'I need a cold shower.'
Now she looks at me nervously, not daring to ask me the question it's my turn to answer. I have no idea what she wants to ask me, but the curiosity kills me. It kills me and scares me to know what's going through her head right now.
NOELIA: Myria, do you want to ask her already? You've been there for hours, the game has to be dynamic, otherwise it's boring.
MYRIA: Yes, okay.
She looks me in the eyes, if she doesn't stop looking at me I won't be able to breathe. I try to hide my nervousness, I swallow.
'Ask me the damn question already.'
MYRIA: Who would you... No! Sorry. Would you sleep with someone here?
She has turned red and looks away. I don't think I'm much less red than she is, do I have to respond that?
'Do I lie?'
ARANCHA: It was better with who, answer who.
MYRIA: I didn't ask that!
'With whom not, I'd die.'
ALBA: I'll answer Myria's question.
NOELIA: But don't lie, Alba Hevia.
'Why do they talk as if they know the answer?'
ALBA: Well... I don't know. Maybe? I'd have to see myself in the situation.
They all look at me curiously, Rosa gives me her 'we'll talk later' face and I find it a bit awkward.
ALICIA: Is that so?
ALBA: I just don't know, I'd have to be in the situation.
Myria looks at me as if she's analysing my response and I'm getting warm again.
'Stop looking at me.'
ALBA: If it was right now, right here in the middle, well, no. But in that situation... I don't know.
NOELIA: What kind of answer is that? It's obvious that you're not going to do it now -she remains silent for a moment and giggles-, although if you wanted to, I wouldn't complain. But come on, the question is clear, would you have sex with someone here yes or no?
I swallow.
ARANCHA: Exactly, if it comes to it and you're already in bed with someone here, would you do it?
ROSA: Leave her alone, she's already said she doesn't know.
'Thank you Rosie, I adore you, I love you, you're the best friend in the world.'
ARANCHA: But that's not an answer.
ELENA: Myria asked the question and if it's okay with her, that's it.
MYRIA: It's okay with me, -she looks at me shyly and grins.
'I'm really fainting now.'
ARANCHA: But it's my question, not Myria's.
They're not going to shut up about it.
ALBA: Well, whatever. If I'm in that situation, where I'm in bed with someone here, and it's low light, and I've been drinking, and all the necessary factors are in place, yeah, I might do it. Happy?
I look at Arancha who laughs and claps her hands.
ARANCHA: Finally. Giving content.
Arancha and Alicia chuckle and Noelia comes up to me with a drink and says flirtatiously.
NOELIA: Well, now that we know how... we can go to Myria's room with this drink and see if the situation is propitious.
Alicia and Arancha both laugh.
ALBA: I didn't say you were the person, Noelia.
We all laugh.
ARANCHA: So there is a person?
'What?'
My face burns again, but luckily Myria intervenes before I can answer, I thank her with my eyes and I think she understands because she smiles at me.
MYRIA: Hey, why in my room?
NOELIA: Elena's smells strange.
ELENA: Hey, respect for the perversion room.
Rosa giggles.
ROSA: I like its smell.
'Awwww.'
ALICIA: Well, since we only have the couple left to play with, we can leave it for now and move on to the next one.
She looks at Arancha to continue her sentence as if they've prepared it.
ARANCHA: Ice cubes.
Noelia starts jumping up and down:
NOELIA: Yes! Today we're finally all playing pass the ice. I'm standing next to Javier.
She sat down next to him. Javier laughed.
ROSA: Why don't we keep the places better?
'Why is no one refusing to play this?'
I have Myria next to me and I don't know if that's good or bad. It's good because if I were with Noelia, Arancha or Alicia they'd be able to throw the ice on the floor at the last second and put their tongues in my mouth. But it's bad because it's Myria, and no matter how much ice there is between us, she makes my temperature rise 15 degrees. Or more.
Noelia ran to the kitchen to get ice and brought back a bowl full of it.
ELENA: Noelia, you picked the smallest ice.
Noelia laughed.
NOELIA: It's more fun that way.
MYRIA: No, I'm going to pick them myself, stop greedy.
Myria went to the kitchen with Noelia's bowl and brought out much larger ice cubes.
MYRIA: The ones in the big ice cube tray are better.
Noelia made a frustrated face.
NOELIA: Whoa... well, at least we can finally play this game.
Noelia took an ice and put it in her mouth, between the alcohol and the laughter of the night I don't think anyone was aware that they had finally managed to get us to play ice, but I was worried about having Myria so close.
'And poor Rosa, as soon as Elena passes her the ice, she'll be playing with Arancha. At least I get Myria and Elena, who will be embarrassed like me.'
Noelia passes the ice to Alicia while they laugh, I think they have put their mouths together more than necessary because the ice is not small enough to stick together like that, but well, I'm not surprised, really. Myria is very tense, as soon as Alicia turns around, it's her turn.
When Alicia has the ice in her mouth she turns to Myria and grabs her face to bring her closer. They put their mouths together and pass the ice without any problem, it was fast.
'I wish it was fast all the time.'
Myria turns around and walks towards me with the ice between her lips. I feel a shiver looking at her, I approach her and she just moves her head towards me, she doesn't grab me or anything like Noelia and Alicia have done so far, she's nervous, it's an uncomfortable situation for her too. I bring my mouth close to hers and for a moment our eyes meet.
'Wow.'
An all too pleasant tingling sensation settles in my lower belly. I close my eyes because I don't want to look at her any longer, and I put the ice in my mouth. For a few milliseconds, her lips touch mine, burning me despite the ice between us.
I open my eyes and pull away from her with my heart racing. Elena is already waiting for me to my right, I approach her and we exchange ice in a second. It was so fast, with Myria everything seemed to go in slow motion.
When Elena and Rosa are passing the ice between them I look at Myria and find her staring at me. I want to pretend that my gaze was casually passing by but at that moment she smiles shyly at me and it is she who stops looking at me to look at Rosa, who approaches Arancha with a terrified look on her face. Arancha grabs her face with a flirtatious smile, as if she's going to kiss her and approaches her.
ELENA: Arancha, I'm watching you.
We all laugh, Rosa gets nervous and drops it in her lap just as Arancha was already an inch away from her and their mouths meet.
NOELIA: Wow, Arancha, you just keep on winning.
We all laugh except for Rosa who is red. Even Elena laughs and hugs her.
The rest of the night was quite fun. All of us together drinking, fooling around and playing whatever silly games we could think of.
