The Bet The Female version of Christian Grey

[JANE]

I groaned as I shifted my position on the cold yet comfortable bed. The persistent throbbing pain in my head had prevented me to continue my stay in dreamland. The pain radiated from the lower part of my eyebrows up to my forehead and temple. Fuck! I won’t ever get drunk again. My eyes fluttered open and they started to adjust with the light coming from the small window on the side. Since when did I get a window this small?

Disregarding the initial confusion, I decided to continue my sleep but I was awaken with the loud ringing of my alarm. I hissed and ruffled my hair before I finally let my eyes open widely. White and blue ceiling, blue covers, unfamiliar walls and the door! Oh my fucking God! I immediately sat up but that only made my headache worse.

"Shit! Fucking hurts!" My headache is killing me. I groaned and roamed my eyes around the room.

"Where the hell am I?" I murmured to myself, ignoring the loud thumping of my heart due to nervousness and confusion. I slowly went off the bed and carefully took my things that were thankfully placed on the top of the bedside table. I checked my phone and I saw Reese's 28 missed calls. I’m so fucking dead. I became more aware that I slept in a stranger’s bed and I don’t even know if that person is a he or she.

"Shit! Shit! Shit!" I dialed Reese’s number and at the same time, silently planning of going out of the room. I tried to observe every part of my body, from head to toe. I don't feel anything weird. I also don't feel like I had sex or something. I was trying to recall everything that happened last night yet my memory is failing me. After a few seconds of ringing, I finally heard Reese's voice over the phone, putting me in a temporary relief. I sighed and briefly halted from coming out of the room. I’m afraid that someone might hear me.

"Oh, thank God! You finally answered! Where are you?! I've been calling you all night! Last time I remember, I left you playing in the slot machine then suddenly you're gone! I was so worried about you!" I heard her worried voice and sniffles. She must be really worried about me. Guilt and disappointment ate me up. I wanted to tell her what happened but I can't do that because I can’t even remember how I got here.

“I'm sorry Reese Posie, but I don't even know what happened and now I just woke up in this unfamiliar room and I don't know where I am”, I told her with the sound of fear in my voice. I don’t know what’s waiting for me behind this door.

“Why are you whispering?" Reese asked. I cleared my throat and tried to maintain my low shaky voice. Can’t she tell how confusing my situation right now?

“Because someone might hear me", I said. Then, I heard her gasped.

“Did someone abduct you? Oh my God! I'm going to call the police! What's exactly your location? This is all my fault! I’m really sorry Jane!” She was already crying and panicking and I can only face-palm myself.

"No, no, no. Reese, I'm fine. All my things are here. I think someone just brought me here but I think I’m okay. I just need to get the hell out of here, then I'll go to your place as soon as I can. I’ll let you know. Wait for me, okay?" I turned the knob while still talking to Reese. I peeked my head through the door and I saw two leather couch that were situated in the center of the living room with a huge Flat screen TV mounted on the wall. There’s also a PS5 set on the side. I may say that the person living here is not a girl and he definitely loves games. The style of the place is just like one of those luxurious bachelor’s pads. The walls were colors grey and cream. A Jack of Spades painting was framed and hanging by the wall next to the average-sized wall clock. The whole place is indeed stylish and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. But the idea of me being with a man gave me goosebumps and an irking feeling inside my stomach. He must be rich, professional and handsome man, but I don’t like men. I am definitely gay so, NO TO MEN!

"Okay, I already got out of the room, I just need t- OH MY FUCKING GOD!" I screamed when I saw someone walked behind me.

"Hey what happened!?” Reese panicked but I was left gawking at the girl who has a blank expression in her face yet she's so fucking attractive. She is definitely not a man, but a masterpiece by God. She looks like a Barbie but a cool one. Her wolf-cut hair falls just above her shoulders, making her more attractive with how they were sexily disheveled, and I badly wanted to reach for the few strands of her hair and tuck them behind her ear but I didn’t do that. I had to look up since she's way taller than me and I shyly look into her eyes. She has doe-like eyes and I can stare at her all day long. Her nose is pointed and her lips are pinkish and plump. I bet they feel soft against mine. Holy shit! I must be crazy. I was pulled out of my trance when I heard my best friend’s voice on the phone that I was still holding near my ear.

"Hello~"

"I'll call you later", I told her and quickly ended the call.

"H-hi. Uhm, were you the one who brought me here?" I nervously asked. I noticed how her abs would contract and I can’t help but to look at them. She’s just wearing gray sweat pants and black Nike sports bra. Oh good lord! What did I do in life to deserve this?

I noticed that I didn't wear my heels and I was walking backwards because right now, she's walking towards me. I never want to complain, who the hell would?

"Yes, because you're wasted last night", she smirked at me. I noticed her lips stretching into a small yet dangerous smile, making me gulp. I never felt intimidated before but her effect on me is so strong that my pulses were fluttering, causing me to have a cold feet.

"W-wait. Did something… h-happened?" I gasped when my back felt the wall behind me , causing me to stop moving backwards. My eyes were just fixed on her, like I was being pulled by a strong magnetic field.

"Do you want to? Because last night you were so eager to get me", she said confidently while squinting her eyes. Get her? I don’t understand. The strong sexual tension I felt for her was replaced by confusion and disappointment.

"Excuse me? What?" I blurted out. Taking back what I thought about her, I grimaced in anger. She got me in the first half. She seems so arrogant, and I don't know what the hell she’s talking about.

"It's our deal. You won the game and I am yours", her smirk never left her beautiful face. Her hands leaned on the wall, trapping me in between her arms. I would have felt giddy at that moment, but I couldn’t romanticized her arrogance towards me. Sorry lover girl, I am not that easy to get.

I closed my eyes before I spoke loudly, "You know what, Miss? I don't know what you're talking about and I don't know what happened last night. Thank you for letting me stay here, but I don’t have time for this game of yours. Now, if you’ll excuse me", I tried to push her away but she's really strong. She never fretted, instead she leaned closer to me which made my me panic inside.

"Great! After you humiliated me last night? You're just going to forget everything?", She gave out a sarcastic laugh and she eventually shook my whole being with her piercing gaze, which is by the way, so attractive. But that's not the point. I silently cursed at myself for not even remembering what happened.
