“Oh. Yeah, okay,” she replied, trying not to sound too disappointed.
She supposed, if they were desperate later and didn’t want to come back out here, she still had her own items she could use if Jennifer was into it. If not, they could forego toys and take care of it with their fingers or their mouths, which was fine by Gage. They walked down the hallway, leading all other pairs, and went into Jennifer’s room, neither of them asking each other first which room they’d use for the night.
“Okay. So, the cards,” Jennifer said, holding them up. “We should start there.”
“Right,” she replied and sat down on the bed, pressing her thighs together and wishing Jennifer’s head was between them right now.
“First question is…” Jennifer read and laughed a little before she sat down next to her. “What ten items would you bring if you were trapped on a desert island? Note that you can bring anything you want, but if you say books, for example, each book counts as an item.” She looked over at Gage and added, “Well, she didn’t say that we couldn’t bring things to escape the island with, so…”
“Is that what you would do?”
“Probably. I’m a doctor, so I’d bring medical supplies. Think a first aid kit would count as one item? If I’m doing that, I’ll just bring a whole medical kit. That would keep me alive, I think. Then, maybe a ration kit with food and water. Not sure if that’s cheating, but she didn’t say anything about a kit counting as more than one item. Then, a raft of some kind, probably, with its own repair kit. A lighter or matches, too. Matches could get wet,but lighters run out of fuel, so I guess I could always go with the whole rubbing two sticks together thing I learned in Girl Scouts.”
“You were in Girl Scouts?”
“All the way through high school. Learned a lot there, including how to build a fire and administer first aid, so even if I weren’t a doctor, I’d know the basics. You go. What are some things you’d bring?”
“Honestly, I don’t know. Probably the stuff you said. It sounds good. Also, maybe like a satellite phone or something that can get me rescued without having to use that raft. I sawCast Away. That volleyball didn’t make it through the waves, and I’m not sure how Tom Hanks did, either.”
Jennifer laughed and said, “True. I guess we shouldn’t limit ourselves, huh?”
“I know I would want something to do while I wait to be rescued, so I’d probably bring a laptop with a solar power brick, or at least, my phone with one. Maybe I can listen to music or read the books I’ve downloaded. If they’re e-books on my phone, that shouldn’t count as multiple items, right?”
“Maybe. I don’t know.” Jennifer shrugged.
“I’d also want to bring my favorite vibe,” Gage added. “That would help pass the time.”
Jennifer laughed again and asked, “A vibrator? Really? You only get ten items.”
“Yes, but I’ve already used one for that satellite phone, and I’ve got the power brick to recharge it. Why not have a little fun in the sun while I wait for the plane to pick me up?”
“Not a bad point,” Jennifer said.
“Now, I know we’re supposed to spend thirty minutes on these things, but I might have done something before dinner that I shouldn’t have…” Gage began.
“What?” Jennifer asked, looking at her in confusion.
“I put this lube on my clit, and it’s very good at making things sensitive.”
“Oh.”
“So, if you’re interested, we could maybe pick the cards back up later and find out if we’re compatible in a different way first.”
Jennifer nodded slowly and replied, “Ah, I see. I don’t think so, Gage.”
“Oh.”
“Yeah. Honestly, you seem nice, but you’re not really my type.”
“I’m not?”
“No. Nothing against you or anything, but you’re also pretty young, if I had to guess, and I’m, well, not that young.”
“You don’t like younger women?”
“I don’t have a preference either way, but I’ve been getting the vibe from you since last night that you’re interested in something in the fun department, but not in the possible love department. Is that fair, or do I have that wrong?”
“I’m interested in both, like the rest of you,” Gage defended.
