The Invitation I Was Glad I Refused

She went out alone because staying home felt boring. She did not expect to be invited into a threesome before the night was over.

Halloween started quietly. I was getting ready without a plan, a proper costume or an event to attend. Still, I love Halloween, and living in a big city made it seem silly to stay home. I was determined to find something to do, even if I had to go alone.

I had recently bought a Lush 4 for my cam shows. A few people had been encouraging me to wear it somewhere public, and that evening I thought, why not? I had never tried anything like it before. I did my makeup in a style inspired by Karin Dreijer's character in the music video for ‘If I Had a Heart,’ put in my Lush, shared control links and headed for a club. The makeup was my costume, more or less.

The walk there was the frightening part. The toy started vibrating at random, and I was convinced everyone could hear it. Having a Halloween look to hide behind made me a little braver, though. I chatted with strangers on the way, and nobody seemed to notice what was happening. Several people thought I was dressed as Venom. I couldn't help wondering whether they really had no idea or were politely pretending not to hear the buzzing.

At the club, a DJ was playing and the place was full of people. I danced hard and felt incredibly turned on by the unpredictable vibrations. Wearing the Lush under my Halloween look made the night feel more nerve-racking, especially while I worried that someone might hear it. After a while, though, I stopped caring so much because it felt good. For all the people around me, I was still enjoying this adventure on my own terms.

Then a beautiful woman came over and started flirting with me. I was thrilled, until she suddenly brought over her boyfriend and asked whether I wanted a threesome. That surprise felt a little shady to me. At the same time, someone using one of my control links sent the Lush into a particularly intense burst. I felt my composure slipping, and for a moment the combination of attraction, nerves and vibration made the invitation harder to think through.

But I decided to play it safe and keep the night solo. I turned them down, turned on as I was, especially since the boyfriend had appeared out of nowhere. Soon afterward, the toy's battery died. I had forgotten to charge it before leaving. Oops. I joked to myself that maybe I should have taken them up on the offer, but I hadn't, and I stayed on my own.

I kept dancing until the club closed, then walked home. My first try at public play had been fun despite how nervous I was at the start, the mistaken Venom guesses and the badly timed dead battery. I wanted to do it again, perhaps next time without a costume to give me a little cover.
