Chapter Title: Love Jenga (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Calculate the probability of casually picking Love Jenga out of all the board games when you've come to play a high-stakes game with your female friend. (3 points)
Jenga was just the easiest game to play.
It was perfect for casual conversation, and it had just enough competition to get your blood pumping.
A light bet made it easy to focus, turning it into the ultimate party game.
Whether it was two players, four, or even six, anyone could enjoy it together.
But of all things, it had to be Love Jenga.
"W-Why is this..."
I awkwardly tried to set the Jenga tower down.
"J-Jinwoo, this..."
Choi Ye-won had clearly seen the writing on the blocks too—her face was flushing red.
"Should we swap it out?"
"...Huh?"
"This kind of game feels a bit off, doesn't it?"
I reached for the terminal on the table to pick something else.
"D-Do we really need to swap it?"
"Huh?"
Choi Ye-won grabbed my arm as it headed toward the terminal.
"Ye-won?"
"N-No, it's not like that. It's just... you just brought it over, and asking the staff to swap it again would be a hassle for them."
She wasn't wrong.
But it kinda felt like she had some ulterior motive. Was I imagining things?
"You sure you're okay with this?"
"With what?"
"The stuff written on it... doesn't seem all that innocent."
At my words, Choi Ye-won started grinning like a mischievous kid.
"Hehe, Ddaengchili, are you actually getting shy about this?"
"What?"
"Come on. We're not the type who meet up for that kind of thing, so no need to overthink it. Board games like this are made for all ages—no explicit prompts or anything."
She had a point.
It was a cafe near campus, but there was a high school nearby too.
No way they'd let the content get too spicy in a place where middle and high schoolers dropped by after classes.
"Or are you saying that sleazy line you dropped earlier was for real?"
Choi Ye-won was provoking me, just like she did during workouts.
Whenever I was about to collapse from exhaustion, she'd poke at me like this to fire up my competitive side.
-You giving up here? Lame~ Losing to a girl in stamina?
-You said you were going to Yeonsung University. If you're quitting studying now, you never should've started!
She had this uncanny knack for hitting my weak spots.
I always fell for it.
"For the record, I'd never get weird ideas! Even if something crazier than these prompts comes up, I'll do it no problem."
Just like now.
She was really pushing my buttons.
I'd been planning to take it easy.
Even thinking of swapping the game.
Worried some weird prompt might pop up.
But this girl was provoking me?
After sitting here fantasizing about dirty stuff, now she was egging me on?
"You serious?"
"O-Of course! What do you take me for? I'm Choi Ye-won—I stick to my word. If anything, I'm worried you'll be the one getting all hot and bothered~."
There it was. That condescending scratch at my pride.
Those were the exact words that kept me from quitting workouts all this time.
"Fine. Let's do it then."
"F-For real?"
"Yeah. You seem confident. I'm confident too. I won't think anything weird during the game."
"Oho, alright then. Let's play. But plain would be boring—wanna make it a bet?"
"A bet?"
"Yeah. Loser grants the winner one wish."
A wish coupon.
Perfect stakes for a game like this.
"You're on. Better brace yourself. I'm not losing."
"You better brace yourself."
The air heated up.
I stood from my seat and approached her.
"Let's start."
"...Okay."
Where'd that confidence go? As I drew close, she pressed her legs together and bit her lip.
-Whisper "I love you."
No hesitation now.
I leaned in close to her ear and murmured.
"I love you."
"......"
Surprisingly, Choi Ye-won didn't react much.
I'd expected her to jump or yelp.
'No way she's serious?'
She'd screamed all kinds of things in her fantasies.
But in the real deal, she was holding strong.
"Th-Then it's my turn?"
Choi Ye-won glared at the Jenga tower and reached out.
The block she pulled read:
-Sit on their lap until your next turn.
"......"
The smile vanished from Choi Ye-won's lips as she pulled the block.
You know this one's too much, right?
Just forfeit.
I'll let it slide easy.
"N-Not hard at all!"
She approached me after saying that.
"N-Next turn's soon anyway."
Her eyes held steely resolve as she looked at me.
This girl was dead serious.
She really wanted to win.
Her face was beet red, but her actions had no hesitation.
And then she sat on my lap.
Of course, her firm ass ended up right on my pelvis and groin.
She sat with her back to me, then glanced over her shoulder.
"How's it feel? That ass you were raving about earlier—perfect handle size for doggy, right?"
This girl, right to the end.
"Nice and plump. Makes me wanna squeeze it."
"......"
Maybe saying it outright embarrassed her.
She quickly turned away, avoiding my gaze.
"Q-Quicker. This is awkward."
"Forfeit and it's easy."
"No way."
Right.
Got it.
I pulled the next block.
-From behind, with their top off, slowly trace your finger down their spine to the tailbone.
Total disaster.
Take off their top?
"Think you can handle it?"
"...Just the knit."
"You're really doing it?"
"I-I'll lose if I don't. No choice."
With that, Choi Ye-won pulled off her knit top.
Her beige strapless bra came into view—no shoulder straps.
Seeing her undress made the situation hit home.
We were really playing Love Jenga, something couples do.
The air felt thick and steamy.
"D-Don't stare. Hurry up."
"O-Okay..."
This one's easy.
Not really sexual touching.
And she was the one stripping, not me.
"Here goes."
I touched the back of her neck with my finger, where she sat on my lap.
"Ha-ut!"
A needy moan escaped Choi Ye-won.
"Y-You startled me. W-Warn before touching."
"My call."
"Ugh..."
"Or forfeit here?"
She was sensitive to tickling, apparently.
Didn't expect such a big reaction.
"J-Just do it!"
"No regrets."
I slowly trailed my finger down her neck.
Stroking along her spine, from neck to back.
Each time my finger met bare skin, a lewd moan slipped out.
"Ung, ha-ut..."
Her moans were so erotic, I started getting hard.
Embarrassed by her own sounds, she covered her mouth with both hands, shoulders shaking as she panted.
"Mmph..."
I traced down her toned waist to the tailbone.
At the final spot, an involuntary sigh of regret escaped me.
"Hoo."
Her moaning reactions were cute.
The air was hot.
Her bare back glistened with sweat as she trembled.
Thanks to her workouts, her back was smooth, not an ounce of fat.
I could see the sweat trickling down her erector spinae.
That's when it happened.
"D-Don't touch weird places!"
Choi Ye-won snapped.
"Didn't touch anything."
"B-But you definitely brushed under my butt..."
She trailed off, realizing what had touched her from below.
"Th-that big?"
She muttered to herself about how it felt even in her imagination.
"......"
An awkward silence settled in.
So awkward it made her casual attitude seem laughable.
Maybe call it here?
Just then, Choi Ye-won gripped the Jenga with trembling hands.
"My turn now."
-Press your face to their bare chest and listen to their heartbeat for 30 seconds.
"Your turn to strip."
Choi Ye-won was smiling as she spoke.
But it was a bit different from usual.
Still playful, but laced with sensuality.
"Hurry."
Her voice was moist.
At her urging, I took off my top too.
We faced each other, tops off.
A familiar sight.
Especially for her—she'd seen me like this plenty.
But the vibe was totally different now.
"Gonna... press against your chest?"
I nodded.
She swallowed hard, then buried her face in my chest.
Thump thump.
My heart pounded like mad.
Laughter from people playing board games drifted in from outside.
Staff footsteps too.
That fact stimulated us more.
Here, in this public space everyone enjoyed, Choi Ye-won and I played an intimate game behind a single curtain.
The thrill of the forbidden fueled it.
Thump thump thump.
My heart raced wildly.
Breathing grew ragged, chest heaving up and down.
Each time, her hair tickled my skin pleasantly.
Her breath warmed my flesh.
The idea of a girl pressing her ear to my chest to hear my heart drove me insane.
Should we stop?
If we kept going, I might not hold back.
Then, like she said, we couldn't stay just friends.
But I didn't want to stop.
Had I ever had a moment like this?
Such prolonged skinship with a girl?
Never.
I'd felt the grips of gym bros praising my muscles, but never a woman's touch.
It tickled.
Her breath, hair, body heat—all of it.
Outside was noisy, but the room felt quieter than ever.
Focused on the sound, Choi Ye-won said nothing.
Thump thump thump.
I swear I could hear another heartbeat too—not just mine.
Never imagined 30 seconds could drag like this.
The dreamlike moment stretched on.
30 seconds felt like forever, but she didn't lift her head.
She stayed buried in my chest.
"Y-Ye-won, 30 seconds are up..."
"Ah."
Only then did she pull her face away.
Sweat-damp hair clung to her face.
Was it her sweat or mine from my chest? No clue.
But the room's atmosphere had undeniably changed.
Lifting her face from my chest, she looked up at me and spoke.
"Your heart... was pounding a lot."
"......"
"Nervous?"
Her tone was different.
Normally, she'd tease and pounce.
Now her sultry voice tickled my ears.
I turned away, unable to answer her question.
"M-My turn then..."
I hurriedly pulled the next block.
-Leave a hickey.
A taller mountain awaited.
"Hickey..."
You know what that means.
Suck hard with your mouth to leave a mark.
Kiss their body.
I figured Choi Ye-won would forfeit here.
But.
"S-Since we're doing it, better on a visible spot, right?"
"......"
She said, pressing her chest together.
Ah.
No quitting for her.
"Got it."
No backing down now.
Like she'd done to me, I brought my face to her chest.
Hot warmth hit me.
"Haa, haa."
Her moans rang clear above my head.
Scorching air.
Lewd atmosphere.
My lower half strained, ready to burst.
Swollen enough to show through my pants.
Holding back was torture now.
It hurt.
Hurt like hell.
But pushing further would ruin our friendship.
This is just a game.
That's all.
Hold it together.
Endure.
Before me, the valley barely covered by her beige bra.
Pale skin.
Choi Ye-won's breasts glistened with sweat on her white skin, shimmering right in front of me.
She bragged about her ass, but up close, her chest was impressively big too.
Watching them jiggle rushed blood to my head.
If heaven exists, isn't this it?
Burying my face in that cleavage would be paradise.
"Jinwoo, your breath... it's so hot."
"S-Sorry."
Apologizing for no reason.
My mind blanked.
Couldn't think straight anymore.
Screw it.
No turning back.
Manly Kim Jinwoo chooses full speed ahead.
Somehow it'll work out.
I pressed my lips to her pale chest.
"Ha-ut!"
So soft.
I'd put plenty in my mouth before, but nothing this soft.
Softer than marshmallows, sweeter than chocolate.
Warm like fresh-brewed coffee, with a lemon scent wafting.
'She uses lemon body wash.'
The thought was fleeting.
The sensation was intoxicating.
My pants twitched.
'Don't stop.'
It's a game.
Just a game.
No other thoughts...
I wondered what face Choi Ye-won was making.
Looking down at me with those lustful eyes from before?
Squinting in shame?
Or disgusted, never expecting this?
I fought the urge to look up.
Whatever it was, seeing it would make me lose control.
Eyes squeezed shut, lips pressed to her chest, I sucked hard.
"Hng! Th-There, too hard..."
The soft breast flesh pressed against the inside of my mouth.
Unthinkingly, I licked the upper part that slipped in with my tongue.
"Ha-ng!"
Her moan grew louder.
Breathing ragged, body twitching every which way.
As Choi Ye-won squirmed, I held her steady with both hands and kept kissing.
To leave a mark.
To leave my mark.
When I pulled away, saliva trailed from my lips to her breast.
Regret hit me.
Wanted to stay longer.
Do more.
Leave a few more marks.
Forced myself to hold back.
"Haa, haa."
"Hoo, hoo."
Hot breaths exchanged.
The mood was scorching.
Maybe we really should stop.
If I declare defeat here...
I exchanged glances with Choi Ye-won.
She stared right back, bit her lip, then reached for the Jenga.
"......"
She showed no sign of stopping.
-Air kiss. Without lips touching, hover 1cm apart and feel each other's breath.
This is insane.
This the level for a board game Jenga?
Seemed like the air could heat up even more.
"Open your mouth."
