Dani was never really into role playing. Especially not some of the fucked up stuff Nikki could come up with. Sometimes it felt like Nikki was trying to see how far she could push, before Dani recoiled and went out to find a nice, sane relationship with someone else. Either that or Nikki was constantly testing out porno ideas. Probably the latter, this time, Dani figured.
"I'm thinking a bar might be the best place for this," Nikki had said. "Like that new one, on the outskirts of downtown. It'll be fun!"
That, Dani thought, was a lie. Right up there with "no, no, the rope won't chafe" and "we won't get arrested for this" and, well, really any time Nikki opened her damn mouth about one of these ventures she had conjured up.
However, despite knowing, not-all-that-deep-down, that this idea would end horribly, Dani had let Nikki convince her that acting like they were two people who had never met and thus could totally decide to have a racy one night stand upon their fictitious selves' first meeting, would be fun. "As much fun as the first time you ride a roller coaster."
It was more like getting a paper cut on the patch of skin in between your thumb and forefinger.
It was painful, watching Nikki flirt with other women, and Dani was beginning to feel like that was the whole point of this-- for Nikki to get a chance to be single again, even though that's not how Nikki had described it. But, then again, Dani knew better than to listen to Nikki.
