So, I was expecting some little house near campus but imagine my surprise when the limo rolled up to a freakin’ castle! A castle. After the girl, her name was Vi, undid my handcuffs I climbed out of the limo and rubbing absently at my wrists looked cautiously around. I took a step back when the door off the castle opened and people came pouring out.

“AWESOME! You decided to join!”

I blinked. I remember that girl. Her name was Chloe and she was in a couple of my classes. I hadn’t known that she was a member of this group.

“Hey Chloe! Umm…I didn’t really have a choice did I?” I said with a laugh rubbing my wrists. Chuckling, she pulled me close for a hug. I awkwardly hugged her back. I wasn’t the touchy feely type unless it was family.

“I think that you’re really going to enjoy this group. The group started several decades ago and is aptly named The Secret Society. Yeah,” she said as I rolled my eyes, “that’s what I think about the name but tradition is tradition. Come on, let me introduce you around. This guy yelling behind me is Rodney. Rodney this is-”

“Oh…I know who it is. I was the one pressing for her to be inducted remember? She’s hot.”

Okay, I don’t know what came over me but the next thing I know I was swapping spit with this guy. Like seriously! Full out grope and grind and everything. He wasn’t really that attracted, okay not attractive at all, but he was a great kisser. Fabulous actually. Not that I’ve kissed a ton of people but still.

“Hey you two! Break it up! This is not part of the whole initiation!”

Yanking away from Rodney I stared at him in surprise. He winked at me before turning away. Oh god! I hoped that he didn’t want a relationship or some crap! It was just a kiss. Granted a great kiss but a kiss nonetheless.

Chloe nudged me with her bony elbow. “Well, that was quite the welcome. A word of warning though. Rodney isn’t the settling down type. He still has a lot of stuff he wants to see and do, females included, before he’s ready for the white picket fence. I should know. I dated him for a bit.”

“Oh thank God!” I said in relief before I stiffened. “Hey, I didn’t mean-”

“Don’t worry about it. Rod and I dated a long time ago. The relationship ran its course and then it ended. End of story. Come on, let me show you around.”

Somehow I ended up back in the front yard throwing a football around with Rodney.

“Come on! Stop throwing like a girl and throw it like you mean it!”

Throwing like a girl? What? No, he did not just say that about me!

Gritting my teeth I cocked my arm back and threw the football with everything I had. I grunted with the effort and my shoulder twinged in protest. To my surprise Rod caught it with one hand before he gave me a very weird look.

“Oh shit!” I mumbled as he cocked back his own arm and let the ball fly. I swore I could hear it whistling toward me as it arced in the air. So, I did the only thing I could do.

I freaking ducked and the ball hit me in the shoulder. Well hell, I thought as I rubbed at my aching shoulder. Now I knew how Neil felt after all these years. And, for whatever odd reason, Rod throwing the ball at me made me want to make out with him again.

Jesus! Am I twisted or what?
