I don't know if these belaying pins were of the authentic size and weight, but Liz and I had commented earlier that they would serve as useable weapon... if we ever got into an appropriate situation.We each took two belaying pins, plus I took a section of fishing net that was tastefully draped over one wall. I had no immediate plans for the net, but I figured that it might come in handy. While we were about this, we heard the captain over the PA system ask that every passenger assemble in the. His tank top, which only moments before had hung on his body like a drape, now stretched to its limits across his chest. Suddenly, Mike slapped Don with his open hand, and Don fell in a heap at Mike’s feet. ‘Is that how you do it, man? Is that how you hit defenseless women?’ Mike’s eyes blazed with anger and retribution. Don climbed to his feet. He wasn’t used to losing because he’d never been in a fair fight. He put up his hands to defend himself, but Mike slapped him again, and Don sank to. He led me to the couch and pulled me into his lap. This time, when I looked into his eyes they weren’t the normal sea green with golden flecks, they were like a forest green and incredibly intense. I knew at that moment that my body was a willing sacrifice to his every whim and desire. My entire being was tense as I anticipated ultimate pleasure. I was afraid to speak so I gave a slight smile, wanting him to interpret this as the welcome to devour the last bit of innocence I contained. I guess. When you grew old enough to appreciate parties, you attended a Christmas themed school dance. At this point, you were also able to appreciate the girls in your school a lot more, and somehow you ended up with the most popular girl in the school at the time.What you didn’t realize at the time though, was that you were going to be the butt of a very longstanding Christmas Dance “tradition” that involved you being tied naked to the underside of arguable the worst plastic reindeer ever.
