UNTIL I MET HER

CHAPTER THREE

The next day, Bethany woke up feeling refreshed and ready to celebrate her friend's birthday. She began her morning routine, starting with a relaxing bath, followed by slipping into a stunning green mini gown that showcased her back down to her hips. The dress was a perfect choice for the occasion, and she felt confident and beautiful. Adding a long cape to her ensemble, she picked up Megan's gift and headed out the door.
Hours later, Bethany arrived at Megan's house, and as she entered, she was immediately immersed in the noise and chaos of the party. Ethan, standing across the room, spotted her and couldn't help but stare. He looked down, trying to compose himself, but his eyes were drawn back to Bethany as she made her way through the crowd.
As she walked, Bethany accidentally collided with Seth, and they exchanged warm greetings. "Hey B," Seth said with a smile. Bethany hugged him tightly before asking, "Uhm, have you seen Megan?" Seth shook his head, "Nope, she's been avoiding me." Bethany offered words of encouragement, "I know she likes you, plus you two look good together." Seth's face lit up with gratitude, "Really? Thanks, B." With a quick goodbye, Bethany continued her search for Megan, leaving Seth and Ethan to watch her go.
Bethany entered Megan's room, and her eyes met Megan's warm smile. "Hi," Bethany said, her voice laced with apology. "I'm really sorry."
Megan's expression was forgiving, "For what?" Bethany explained, "The way I've been acting." Megan waved it off, "It's fine, the main thing is that you're here."
As they hugged, Megan exclaimed, "You made it! Your party's huge, and I had no idea we were supposed to wear bikinis." Megan laughed, "I wanted my party to be different this year, but don't worry, I got you covered." She handed Bethany a green bikini and black scarf.
Bethany changed into the bikini, and Megan admired her, "Nice." Bethany smiled, "Thanks." She then presented Megan with a thoughtful gift, a necklace with their names on it. Megan was overjoyed, "Are you kidding me?! I love it!" Megan I think the bikini’s exposing too much
As they chatted, Bethany put on her cape, and Megan teased her, "Since when did Bethany Anderson start caring about exposing clothes?" Bethany playfully replied, "Since today." Megan joked, "Come on, take it off."
As Seth entered the room, Megan's gaze met Bethany's, and a subtle smile played on her lips. Seth's eyes locked onto Megan's, and he exclaimed, "Happy Birthday, love!" Megan's face lit up with delight, and Seth swept her into his arms, their lips meeting in a tender kiss.
Bethany, feeling like an intruder, awkwardly announced, "Uhm, I'm gonna go...bye Seth." Seth, still embracing Megan, replied, "Bye Bethany," his voice distracted by the passion of the moment.
With a quiet exit, Bethany slipped out of the room, leaving the birthday girl and her beau to their intimate celebration. The scene was set for a romantic evening, with Megan and Seth lost in their own little world, oblivious to everything else around them.
Bethany's eyes widened as she entered the swimming pool room and spotted the majestic 
vanilla cake. "Holy shit..." she breathed, her desire for the sweet treat overwhelming. She grabbed a spoon and dug in, savoring the creamy texture and sweetness.
Just as she was indulging, Ethan appeared behind her, his voice low and husky. "You look hot in that bikini, but it's f*****g exposing your body." Bethany turned to face him, her eyes flashing with defiance. "My body is none of your business, okay?"
Ethan's smile was unnerving as he moved closer to her. "And what are you doing here?" Bethany stood her ground, "I came for the cake. You can leave now." But Ethan's gaze lingered, his intentions unclear.
Ethan's voice was low and husky as he said, "I came in here to see my baby girl." Bethany's response was dismissive, "Well, she's not here, so you can go." But Ethan's smile only grew wider as he moved closer to her, his eyes locked onto hers.
"You sure about that?" he asked, his tone dripping with skepticism. Bethany's gaze met his, her expression unwavering. "Well, I'm the only one here, aren't I? I think you should leave."
But Ethan's next words sent a shiver down her spine. "You know I'm referring to you, Queen." Bethany's smile was enigmatic, and she simply said, "You're..." before trailing off, her eyes never leaving Ethan's face. The silence between them was palpable, heavy with unspoken meaning.
As he closed in, Bethany retreated, her back eventually hitting the wall. Ethan's eyes burned with intensity, his voice dripping with seduction. "You're f*****g lucky you didn't complete that sentence. You're in the perfect outfit for me to show you how crazy I can be."
Bethany's smile was laced with bravado, "I didn't say it because I didn't want to, not because I'm scared of you or something else. So don't be so full of yourself." The air was electric with tension as Ethan's face inches from hers, his breath dancing across her skin.
Ethan closed the distance between them, his eyes locked on Bethany's. "You're not scared of me, why don't we find out?" he whispered, his breath hot against her skin.
Bethany's gaze met his, her heart racing. Ethan's hands came up, caging her in as he placed them on the wall beside her. He bent his head, his lips inches from hers. "Call me crazy," he whispered.
Bethany tried to step back, but Ethan's hands gently grasped her stomach, holding her in place. His fingers slid down to her hips, sending shivers down her spine. "You've never been touched by a guy, have you?" he asked, his voice low and husky.
Bethany's silence was her only response. Ethan's eyes sparkled with intrigue as she moved closer, her hands on his chest. "You know what," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
Ethan's eyes locked onto hers, his smile growing wider. "You haven't answered my question, baby girl," he teased. Bethany's response was swift. "First, you disrupted my cake eating. I'm just going to get back to what I was doing before you came in here."
Ethan's eyes narrowed, his voice taking on a sensual tone. "And the second thing is what exactly?" Bethany's lips brushed against his ear, her words sending shivers down his spine. "I'm not your baby girl. Don't call me that."
As they gazed into each other's eyes, Bethany's smile was enigmatic. She turned to leave, but Ethan's eyes followed her, drinking in the sight of her body. "Can you stop doing that?" she asked, her voice firm.
Ethan's grin was unrepentant. "Doing what, queen?" His eyes roamed her thighs, and Bethany turned away, her cheeks flushing.
Ethan's gaze lingered on Bethany's thighs, and she turned away, her cheeks flushing. "Stop looking at me with those eyes," she demanded.
Ethan's response was defiant. "If you want me to stop, you're going to have to turn around and f*****g say it to my face." Bethany spun back, her eyes flashing with annoyance.
"What's with you and the F word?" she asked, but Ethan just looked her up and down before she turned away again.
Bethany tried to reach the top layer of the cake, but Ethan moved in, his hand grasping hers. "You're not going to get the cake like that," he said, his voice low and husky. 
"I appreciate your offer, but I'm fine on my own, okay?"
As she struggled to get the cake, Ethan watched with amusement, stepping aside to let her try. But when she slipped and almost fell, he quickly grabbed her, pulling her close as he wrapped his hands around her waist. "I've got you, Queen," he whispered, his face inches from hers.
Bethany's breathing quickened, and Ethan held her tight. "What's happening to me?" she asked, her voice trembling.
Ethan's response was calm. "Place your hand on your chest." When Bethany hesitated, he offered, "Would you prefer I do it?" But she shook her head, her breathing rapid.
Finally, she placed her hand on her chest, and Ethan moved her hair aside. "Inhale," he whispered. Bethany took a deep breath, then exhaled, her breathing slowing.
As she rested on Ethan's chest, he asked, "Are you okay?" Bethany nodded, and when he pressed her again, she nodded faintly.
Ethan smiled, letting go of her. "I’ll handle this", his voice low and husky, taking the plate of cake he offered.
Ethan just grinned. "If you had just helped me earlier..." Bethany raised her head, frowning.
"You can just say thank you," Ethan teased. Bethany laughed. "In your dreams."
Ethan nodded and left with the cake, Bethany following him. "That's my cake," Bethany said, her eyes fixed on the dessert in Ethan's hands.
Ethan just smiled, "Oh, I know." He took a bite, savoring the taste.
Bethany marched over to him, snatching the fork from his hand. Ethan turned, his face inches from hers. "You say you're not scared of me, but why do I see fear in your eyes?" he asked, his voice low and husky.
Bethany's smile was defiant. "Fear? You must be crazy." Bethany's hand instinctively flew to her mouth, as if to take back the words she had just spoken. Ethan's frown deepened, his eyes narrowing. "What did you just call me?" he asked, his voice low and menacing.
Bethany tried to pull away, but Ethan's grip on her arm was like a vice. He moved his hand to hers, his fingers wrapping around her wrist. "Release the fork," he demanded, she tried to shake him off.
Finally, Ethan let go, and Bethany released the fork, which clattered to the counter. Ethan picked it up, his eyes never leaving hers. "You think I'm crazy, baby girl?" he whispered, his breath hot against her skin.
As he moved closer, Bethany turned her face away, but Ethan's hands were relentless. He reached out, his fingers brushing against her n****e through the thin fabric of her cape. Bethany's body shuddered at the touch, her heart racing with fear.
As they stood there, Ethan's fingers brushed against her n****e, sending shivers down her spine. Bethany sighed, her eyes fluttering closed. Ethan's finger traced the edges of her bikini top, trying to loosen the ropes.
"Whatever you're trying to do, please stop it," Bethany begged, her voice trembling.
Ethan's hands moved to her breasts, caressing them gently. Bethany moaned loudly, her body responding to his touch. But when Eric entered the room, Bethany tried to cover herself.
Ethan grabbed her, pulling her close. Bethany's hands landed on his chest, her breasts pressing against him. Ethan's eyes locked onto hers, his expression intense.
Eric's voice cut through the tension, "Ethan, the game is about to start." But Ethan's attention was focused on Bethany, his hands still touching her face.
"Ethan, the game is about to start," Eric called out again, but Ethan's attention was focused on Bethany. She squeezed his shirt, and he turned to her, his eyes locking onto hers.
"I'll be there soon," Ethan replied, but Eric persisted, "Ethan, come on." Ethan's expression darkened, and he growled, "You heard me, Eric. Get the f**k out of here."
Eric's face fell, and he quickly left, leaving Ethan and Bethany alone. Ethan's hands moved to Bethany's face, but she pulled away, covering herself up. "I'm sorry," Ethan said, his voice softening.
Bethany looked at him, her eyes flashing with anger, and tried to leave, but Ethan grabbed her arm. "Let me make it up to you," he pleaded, his eyes searching hers.
But Bethany was unmoved. "I wanna leave," she said, her voice firm, and tried to but Ethan pleaded, grabbing her arm. Bethany hesitated, and Ethan's looked at her. "I wanna make it up to you. It's either that or you stay in here with me."
Bethany relented, and Ethan's gaze drifted to her chest. "You might wanna button that up. I can't make it up to you if I'm distracted by those perfectly sized boobs, baby girl."
Bethany smiled and turned to button up her cape. When she faced Ethan again, he handed her the cake. "You had to eat my favorite flavor," she said, taking a bite.
Ethan watched her, a knowing glint in his eye. "It's gonna affect you...you know that right?" he said, his voice low.
Bethany rolled her eyes. "It's not." But Ethan persisted, "You know vanilla is bad for ladies, right? Period, you know right?"
Bethany's patience snapped. "It's my period, not yours. So stay out of my personal life." But Ethan wouldn't let up, his eyes fixed on her cape. "I thought I saw you in a gown," he said, his voice teasing.
Bethany stopped eating, her eyes flashing with annoyance. "You saw the wrong person." But Ethan just chuckled, his eyes never leaving hers. Finally, Bethany had had enough, and she left, Ethan following close behind.
Joe's voice echoed through the room, "Anyone interested in the game?" Ethan's eyes locked onto Bethany, his gaze intense.
Bethany shook her head, "Oh no way." But Ethan was persistent, "Come with me." Bethany refused, "I'm not interested."
Ethan reminded her, "I'm making it up to you, remember?" But Bethany was unmoved, "Truth or dare, seriously? No thank you."
As she turned to leave, Ethan pulled her back, his grip firm. "Hey, let me go," Bethany struggled, but Ethan pulled her into the room, closing the door behind them.
"I wanna leave," Bethany demanded, but Eric had already locked the door. Bethany tried to sit down, but her eyes flashed with anger as she looked at Ethan.
Joe began to explain the game, "So we're 11...5 guys, 6 girls." But Bethany corrected him, "5 girls actually, I was just about to leave."
As she stood up to leave again, Cody grabbed her hand. Ethan stood up, his eyes blazing, "Let go of her, Cody. Take your hands off her."
Cody looked at Bethany, then released her hand, going to sit down. Joe exclaimed, "Are we starting the f*****g game or what?"
Ethan turned to Bethany, concern etched on his face, "Are you okay?" But Bethany's response was to hit him, before turning and leaving. Ethan smiled, then followed her to sit down.
Joe explained the game, "So you choose dare twice and truth once." But Bethany corrected him, "That's not how the game works."
Sophie chimed in, "Bethany, just go with it." But Bethany snapped back, "What is your problem with me, Sophie?"
" Sophie's eyes flashed with anger, "You really wanna know?"
But Bethany dismissed her, "Nope, actually, I don't waste my time with senseless things." Joe intervened, "The game hasn't started yet, ladies."
Sophie took offense, "What did you just call me?" Bethany shot back, "Senseless love, were your ears blocked the first time I said it?"
Sophie's face reddened as she stood up, but Eric quickly grabbed her arm, restraining her. "Let it go, darling," he whispered.
Sophie sat back down, still fuming. Ethan, who had been watching the exchange, turned to Bethany and smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. The tension between Bethany and Sophie was palpable, and Ethan seemed to be enjoying the show.
Joe moved on, "You don't do the dare or say the truth, you have to finish a bottle of alcohol." Bethany hesitated, "Uh, I don't drink."
Ethan goaded her, "Then just do the f*****g dare." Joe asked, "Truth or dare, Bethany?"
Bethany chose truth, and Joe asked, "Are you a virgin?" Bethany looked at Ethan, who smiled knowingly.
In a surprising move, Bethany picked up the bottle and took a sip, then dropped it. Ethan's eyes widened in surprise.
Sophie snickered, "Wow, so much for the mouth." But Bethany shot back, "Just because I didn't answer doesn't mean I'm a virgin, and just because I took the alcohol doesn't mean I'm not."
Ethan looked at her, intrigued. Sophie continued to taunt her, "You're confusing me, so shut up or you need someone to f**k that mouth."
Ethan intervened, "Sophie, enough." But Cody added, "You have to finish the whole bottle, princess."
Bethany took a deep breath, then gulped down the rest of the alcohol, dropping the bottle to the ground.
Joe's voice cut through the tension, "Nice, Sophie. Truth or dare?" Sophie chose dare, and Joe's smile grew wider. "I dare you to give any guy in this room a blowjob."
Sophie stood up, her eyes locked on Cody, and began to walk towards him. Bethany's eyes followed her, and she took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling heavily. Ethan's gaze flicked to Bethany, his eyes narrowing.
As Sophie reached Cody, she placed her hands on his lap, and Eric's face darkened in disapproval. Cody pulled down his trousers, and Bethany stood up, her chair scraping against the floor. She turned to leave, but the door was locked.
Joe tried to stand, but Ethan stopped him, his hand on his arm. "I'll handle this," he said, his voice low and even.
Ethan walked over to Bethany, his eyes locked on hers. "You know the door is locked, right?" he said, his voice soft.
Bethany turned to him, her eyes flashing with anger. "If this is your way of making it up to me, then you're..." But Ethan cut her off, his voice firm.
"Easy with those words, baby girl. You won't like what happens after them. Besides, this is just a truth or dare game."
Bethany's voice was laced with venom. "I just want to get out of here." Ethan's response was calm. "You will, once the game is over."
Bethany's eyes narrowed. "Oh, so by then you or your guys would have had your way with me." Ethan's assurance was quick. "I can assure you that they won't try anything with you...and if it makes you feel any better, I won't try anything with you either."
Bethany looked at him, her expression skeptical. "And you expect me to believe that?"
Ethan shrugged. "It's up to you, baby girl."
Bethany took a deep breath, her eyes flashing with anger. "You feel better now?" she spat. "I had a bottle of alcohol and I don't even drink. What kind of question is that?"
Ethan's smile was infuriating. "Well, you should have answered the simple question."
Bethany's voice was laced with disdain. "Did you really think I would expose something that important to you or any of those people in there?" She turned and walked away, leaving Ethan smiling behind her.
Dina spoke up, "I thought you were leaving." But Cody smirked, "She came back for a taste." Bethany shot back, "In your dreams."
Sophie stood up,
Sophie stood up, and Bethany's gaze inadvertently fell upon Cody's exposed erect p***s in its entirety . She tried to stand up, but Ethan's hands clamped down on her shoulders, holding her in place. He leaned in close, his mouth brushing against her ear, and whispered, "Sit down, sit still, and be calm. Leave the rest to me, okay, Queen?"
Bethany nodded, and Ethan's grip relaxed. "Good," he murmured, before releasing her and sitting down beside her.
Joe's voice cut through the tension, "So, Sophie, how was that?" The question hung in the air, but Sophie's response was not recorded. The attention remained fixed on Bethany and Ethan, the unspoken understanding between them palpable.
 Joe asked Sophie, " come on at least give us something?" Eric shut him down, "Shut up, Joe."
The game continued, with Ella choosing truth. Joe asked her, "What do you think about Liam?" But Ella stood up, "I'm done with this game," and left.
Ethan looked at Bethany, who asked, "Wait, you didn't stop her. Why didn't you?" But Sophie cut her off, "She's got the key."
Joe continued the game, "So, 5 girls left. Ethan, dare." Ethan agreed, and Joe dared him to take off Bethany's cape. Sophie chimed in, "So easy."
But Bethany refused, "Uh, no way." She grabbed another bottle and gulped half of it down. Ethan stood up, took the bottle from her, and asked, "You really wanna get drunk?"
Bethany shrugged, "I don't care, I'm done with this game." But Simpson said, "You started already, you can't leave."
Ethan looked at Bethany, his eyes locked on hers. 
Bethany spoke up, "Ella left." Ethan's expression darkened, and he asked, "You wanna know where she went to?" But before he could continue, Joe intervened, "Ethan, that's enough."
Ethan's eyes locked onto Bethany's, and he said, "I'm doing the dare." With deliberate slowness, he began to unbutton her cape, his gaze drifting to her breasts. Bethany's hands fluttered up to cover his, but Ethan continued, unbuttoning it halfway.
Bethany's body language screamed discomfort, and she shook her head, trying to convey her distress. Ethan's eyes never left hers, his expression a mix of challenge and curiosity. The air was thick with tension as the scene unfolded. 
Bethany placed her hands on his, "Please don't." Ethan covered her up, "I'm gonna stop there."
Joe reminded Ethan that he still had to take a half-full bottle since he didn't complete the previous dare. Ethan agreed and took a drink, gazing at Bethany with a mixture of curiosity and desire. After a sip, he dropped the bottle and returned to his seat.
Joe moved on to Cody, asking him to choose between truth or dare. Cody chose truth and boldly admitted that he wanted to f**k Bethany. Ethan raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Cody's response.
The game continued, with Joe daring Bethany to make out with Ethan. Bethany hesitated, but Ethan encouraged her to accept the challenge. Instead of kissing him, Bethany grabbed another bottle and took a swig.
Bella expressed concern, thinking Bethany had had enough to drink. But Cody disagreed, letting her continue. Ethan laughed as Bethany finished another bottle.
Joe checked in with Bethany, asking if she was okay. She assured him she was fine. Then, Joe asked Cody to choose again. Cody chose dare, and Joe instructed him to finish what Ethan had started.
Ethan watched as Cody approached Bethany with a sly smile. Bethany tried to stand up, but Cody stopped her, saying, "Calm down, princess, it's just a dare." Ethan looked at Bethany with concern
Joe reminded Cody to only remove Bethany's cape and not try anything crazy. Ethan stood up, angry, but Joe reassured him that Cody wouldn't harm Bethany. Cody, still smiling, said, "Crazy is kind of my specialty."
Sophie's voice was laced with excitement as she said, "This is gonna be fun." Cody's eyes locked onto Ethan's before he turned his attention to Bethany. He removed her hands from her cape and began to pull it down, his movements slow and deliberate. Once the cape was completely removed, he licked his lips and moved his hands to the ropes that bound her.
Bethany tried to stand up, but Cody held her in place. She started struggling, and Joe intervened, "Cody, that's enough." Ethan stood up, his eyes blazing with anger, and placed his hands on Cody's shoulders. "It's clear that she doesn't want your f*****g hands on her," he growled.
Cody stood up, and Ethan threw a punch at his face. Chris exclaimed, "f**k!" as Cody laughed and spat out blood. Ethan collected the cape and used it to cover Bethany. "Are you okay?" he asked, and Bethany nodded.
Ethan grabbed her and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He carried her out of the room, telling Joe to continue the game without them. Once they were alone, Bethany demanded to be put down, insisting she wasn't drunk. Ethan smiled and set her down carefully.
Bethany rushed to the restroom, throwing up and washing her face. Ethan smiled and followed her, catching her as she almost fell. "Easy, Queen," he said, and Bethany looked up at him.
She climbed onto the bed and sat on his lap, his arousal evident. "So, you still sure you aren't drunk?" he asked, and Bethany whispered in his ear, "Why don't we find out, huh?"
Ethan stopped her from kissing his neck, saying, "You're drunk." But Bethany persisted, "Come on, what's with the innocent act? Don't tell me you don't want to touch me?" Ethan's response was raw and honest, "I f*****g want to do more than that to you, baby girl."
Bethany asked, "Then what's stopping you?" Ethan replied, "You're drunk." She frowns 


Bethany tried to stand up, but Ethan grabbed her roughly and kissed her. She moaned as he slid his tongue onto hers and bit her lips. He moved her to the bed, but just as things were escalating, Bethany whispered, "I can’t ."
Ethan stopped, concerned, and asked, "What's wrong?" Bethany revealed, "I've never done this before. You’re a virgin?." Ethan asked, his voice low and husky, she nodded 
He was taken aback, and Bethany quickly left the bed. He followed her, and she asked him to take her to Megan's room.
As they walked, Bethany said, "You know you're the worst at making it up to people." Ethan smiled, and Bethany fainted in his arms. He carried her to Megan's room, placed her on the bed, and covered her up.
Megan arrived, concerned, and Ethan reassured her that Bethany was fine, just a bit drunk. Megan was skeptical, knowing Bethany didn't drink. Ethan promised she wouldn't drink again.
As Megan sat beside Bethany, Ethan handed her a package - a late birthday present. Megan was touched and thanked him. Ethan left, and Megan opened the package to find a beautiful bracelet.
Outside, Ethan encountered Cody, who taunted him about falling in love. Ethan warned Cody not to repeat the stunt he pulled earlier, and Cody backed off. Ethan frowned and left, lost in thought.
