I pull out a flask from my bag on the floor and hand it to him. He hesitates.
“You could still jump into the pool if you want,” I state.
He shakes his head. “There’s a reason I wanted to swim in a place I only had access to. I hate swimming around people. They start to get nervous when I don’t come up for air.”
“I wouldn’t care if you didn’t,” I assure him.
He laughs. “Yeah, I believe that.”
Then he shrugs before accepting the flask. He opens it, takes a swig of the booze before sitting down on the lounge chair beside me.
“So, what are you doing here? Since swimming in January is such an abominable thing.”
“It’s quiet,” I state, accepting the flask and taking a drink when he offers it.
I return it to him and he drinks again, his expression pensive. I watch the tension slowly leave his shoulders. He still has that far off, haunted expression though.
“Do you want to play a game?” I ask, trying to distract him.
I briefly wonder why I even care.
He looks amused. “Yeah, sure. What did you have in mind?”
“Two truths and a dare.”
“Seems a little immature.”
“Sure,” I say. “But if you don’t want to answer a question, you have to take off an article of clothing.”
His brown eyes gleam and his mouth curls into a smirk. “I thought you didn’t want to have sex.”
“Who said anything about sex? It’s just a game. Come on, it’ll be fun.”
“Never thought I’d be playing a game with a stranger at night,” he muses. “But I’m game. Let’s do this.”
“Alright, first question. What’s your name?”
He smiles, “Tony.”
I nod in acceptance.
“What’s yours?” he returns.
I smile before standing up and shuffling out of my skirt, revealing my white lacy panties. Leaving me in only a black tank top and my jacket. I could have taken off my jacket. But what’s the fun in that? I fight off the chill that immediately envelops me, trying not to shiver.
Tony’s expression heats and I suddenly wonder if it’s a good idea to be teasing him like this.
“My turn,” I say, trying to think up a suitable dare. “I dare you to tell me what car you drive.”
It’s weak but there aren’t a lot of options for dares up here so I figured I’d just keep asking questions.
He arches an eyebrow. “That depends. I have two,” he says smoothly, confidently. “A Maybach and a Pagani but I don’t drive the Pagani often. That’s my baby.”
So he’s rich. I’m already profiling him in my head. He’s probably the son of some rich businessman. He’s emitting playboy vibes, someone that doesn’t take life too seriously. Although I could be wrong. A Pagani is extremely expensive though and not well known. If I had to guess, Tony looks a little Italian so it makes sense he would be driving an exclusive car by an Italian manufacturer.
“What is going on in that pretty head of yours?” he asks, peering at me curiously.
“Nothing,” I shake my head. “Your turn for a question.”
