intoxicated- rafe cameron

five

I really didn't want to play Truth or Dare. I mean, we're all fucking wasted and about to get stoned.  I can't see this ending well. Regardless, Tess and Kelce start playing with each other immediately as Rafe and I watch in silence.

"Tess, truth or dare?" Kelce presses, his smile predatory.

"Truth."

"Alright... who do you like?"

I roll my eyes and laugh. "Wow, Kelce that's the best you could come up with?" It's such a juvenile question that I laugh at it before effortlessly breathing in a line of the drug, its bitter taste coating my throat.

Tess rolls her tongue in her mouth. "Since we're all absolutely fucked right now, I will fucking kill any of you if you remember this in the morning."

Everyone goes silent, our stares wordlessly ripping into Tess, too intrigued to be thinking about anything else.

"The person that I like is- is you," she whispers, looking sheepishly back in his direction. Kelce looks at her with his mouth wide open. I've never seen him act like this, so I cover my mouth as I try not to laugh. He's a totally different person when he's hammered. No one would have guessed.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Tess defensively asks, crossing her arms over her chest as she looks around at us all.

Rafe weakly laughs, taking a swig of his White Claw. "Tess, it's obvious."

She looks at me, utter surprise on her face, and I tiredly nod.

"Fucking hell man-" I hear Tess murmur under her breath. She meekly rubs the back of her neck and turns to me. "Y/N, truth or dare?"

"Truth." I usually do dare, but I'm not feeling it right now.

Tess nods. "Okay... uh- what are you most looking forward to about married life?"

I raise my eyebrow at her.

She goes red. "Bitch- I couldn't think of any other question leave me alone!"

"Honestly, I never see myself getting married. I've never really beloved in love. I think it's an excuse for people to act the way that they do. Marriage is just a way to trap people and a government scam." I shrug. "It's fun to go on dates and fuck, but that's as far as it goes for me."

Everyone's smiles fade as they all stare at me. They all look at each other and comically take sips of their drinks at the same time. I roll my eyes. "Kelce, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

"Do you like Tess?" We all know the answer, but I ask to humor him anyway.

"Duh," he says. He looks at Tess with heated eyes and she smirks back at him. He raises his eye brows and she winks.

After finishing off yet another line of Coke, Rafe says: "Okay- um, I guess I'll go next then," he says, avoiding looking in Topper and Sarah's direction. "Y/N, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

"Wow, you are all a bunch of pussies," Rafe responds. "No one is brave enough to do a dare, huh?"

I scoff, rolling my eyes, while Rafe gives me cut eye. I find it so weird that earlier, he was being so nice and selfless at Barry's, sticking up for me and shit. But now, he's just back to being himself. Once a dick, always a dick, right?

"If you could switch genders for the day, what would you do?" he says, eyes boring into me.

"Oh shit! This a good one!" Kelce says excitedly, clapping his hands.

I laugh. "Ummm, if I were a guy... I would definitely have to keep it hard and last longer than a minute and a half," I answer truthfully.
