I get up off Collin's lap and we make our way up the stairs following Katherine and Matt who exchange a look that seems almost eager. The walk in and Liv starts the timer, closing the door. I press my ear to the door, but I can only hear a muffled conversation that is trying not to be heard. Then some laughter. More talking for a while.
"Less talking and more... uh..." Sabina trails off, and we laugh. They just go on talking more, though.
Then the conversation stops.
"They are probably trying not to make noise," I state, "...but there may be some kissing." Yup, but very quietly. The bed creaks slightly.

After a few minutes Katherine calls, "Are you guys going to tell us when the time's up, or just barge in on our privacy?"

"Yes, and yes; you've got a minute and a half," Liv tells them. There's some more muffled conversation, and kissing. Liv whispers to us, "they've got twenty seconds left, I'm barging in."
"No, just wait, give them the whole seven minutes..." I tell her. You're welcome, Katherine.

The timer finishes, Liv opens the door immediately, and we gasp at the sight. Neither Katherine nor Matt have shirts on, and they lay next to each other on the too-small bed, in the middle of a kiss. His hands seem to be fingering her bra, and she is stroking his abs, with the other hand draped over his back. They take their time finishing the kiss, and I can't help but notice Matt's good looking body. I glance at Collin, wondering what he'd look like without a shirt, but he is too busy staring at Katherine to notice. Bastard.

"Wrap it up guys," I tell them, tossing Katherine her shirt which was lying on the floor, "Let's get back to the game."

"Do you think they'll notice if I 'forget' to sit on your lap?" I whisper to Collin.
"Probably not," he responds, "but, I mean, ...I don't mind, if you want ....to sit on my lap, I mean ...unless you're more comfortable..." he stumbles on. But, I don't have to make that choice:
As soon as we go back to the main room, Katherine points at me and says, "you, lap, now." I position myself on his lap, a little closer so I'm more comfortable.

We keep playing for awhile, and I slow sink back into Collin as I get tired. We could have gone on all night, but Liv turns on her phone and realizes the time.
"Shoot, guys, it's already 10:30, we've only got a half hour! Should we stop playing?" Liv asks, but decides against it when she sees the death stare Sabina is throwing her.
"Well, we probably have time for one more... Sabina, truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I think you're asking for it, so 7 minutes in heaven with Jake!" Liv announces.

Some people follow them to Liv's room, but I stay downstairs. Soon the people upstairs come down too, and Liv whispers the plan:
"They sound pretty content up there, so we aren't going to disturb them. We have sundae stuff for dessert, so I figure we can go ahead and eat that and conveniently forget to stop them." Everyone laughs and agrees, and we get the sundae stuff out, trying not to make a lot of noise. We make and eat sundaes and talk some more. Liv says they've been up there for twenty minutes already.
"Alright, let's go break up the party, come on guys." Liv says, and we reluctantly agree, "the parents will be arriving soon."

We walk upstairs, open the door, and are quite surprised by what we find!
