"I dare you to ask out the freak!"
What started off with as a simple dare, leads Alex Cunningham (o/c) down a twisted trail with Eddie Munson. Old flings, new things and overwhelming lies soon consume the average girls life.
- Strong language. Matur...
"I love you Alex. I'm in love with you, I know I messed up bad, and if I spend the rest of my life trying to win you back, well shit... the rest of my life starts today." "Eddie..." I mumbled. - - - -
Eddie starred back at me with a hopeful smile. A part of me wanted to throw myself in his arms, forgive him what everything and be with him. But I felt as if it was too soon. What ended up happening with Jamie? Will this happen again?
"Say something..." He begged softly. "Eddie-"
I felt tears flood my eyes, I looked at Eddie with an open mouth, unable to pull the words from my thoughts I felt my heart racing. My palms soon become sweaty, my body twitched while I stood there frozen. Why was this so hard for me to say something?
I knew I loved him, despite everything that had happened. In the ways he loved me, I loved him too. I loved his humor, the way he is so expressive. I loved that at the end of the day, if I picked up the phone he would be on the other end...waiting for me.
Over Eddie's shoulder I saw Gareth and Jeff, gathered together waiting for my response. I looked back at Steve who stood there with his arms gestured out. I felt drowned by the level of testosterone that surrounded me. I looked back at Eddie, who stood there fueled with doubt. It must've taken a lot of courage for him to be able to do this. I loved the gesture, but I become to anxious while everyone waited for me.

"Truth or Dare Alex?" Eddie asked grabbing hold of my arm, I looked at his sorrow filled eyes. If they were able to talk, they'd scream at me for a response.
A sight of sorrow flushed his face, he seemed to take notice of my panic. "I can't Eddie." I managed to mumble out.
"Truth or Dare." A small whimper escape as he repeated himself.
"I-I-I can't do this Eddie." I whimpered out, with my free hand I slid it over his. Releasing myself from his grip I ran towards the exit. Pushing passed Steve I ran out, passed his car I felt my feet continue the pace.
Once again, I wasn't sure where I was going to go. All I saw was glimpse of trees as I ran passed them, I kinda took note of the way Steve took to get here, but to my luck it was dark outside. Panic now shot through my body while I tried to think on my feet. I felt my feet slow their roll. Stopping I finally caught my breath.
Why did I run away?
I stood there, trying to muffle my sobs I covered my mouth. I was unable to catch my breath. I felt as if I felt every emotion I could bare. My heart was pounding against my chest, my eyes stung from the smudged mascara smearing down my eyes.
