15. Sleepover

I'm so excited for this chapter because I LOVE sleepovers; being a girl and just talking with your friends late at night is one of the best feelings ever. Silly games like truth or dare and kiss marry kill will always be in my heart forever.

By the way, I've been thinking about what I should write after this story is complete. I could write about Brandt, Dustin, Shuji, etc. I wanna write about romance tropes like enemies to lovers, fake dating, or something like academic rivals, you know? Just lmk any requests you might have.

Also, I'm adding Heather & Connie to this chapter just because I love them and their friendship with Delilah sm.

"So, what're we doing tonight?" Becca asked as she took a bite out of her pizza.

"Like, obviously, we're gonna do Truth or Dare," Maura responded excitedly. "'Cause you can't not do Truth or Dare."

"Yeah, for sure," Heather nodded. "And Kiss Marry Kill, of course."

Before anyone could respond, Anna walked in as she dragged a huge bag across the floor. "Oh, hey. Thanks for having me. Oh my God, is that double stuffed crust?"

"Yeah. Anyways, tonight is going to be so amazing. We're gonna-" Maura began to say, before interrupted by Anna yet again.

"Guys," she mumbled as she chewed her pizza. "I haven't seen Maya in a long time. I can't find her anywhere."

Anna walked over to her bag, which was weirdly moving for some reason. She pretended to gasp as someone stuck their fist out from underneath a gap in the zipper. By then, it was pretty clear that the person inside was Maya. Everyone could tell from the weird groaning and crying noises.

"Oh my God," Delilah said, holding a hand to her mouth. "Is she okay? Did she suffocate in there?"

Maya eventually broke free and jumped out of the bag, but the entire scene was extremely disturbing, since it felt like they were watching someone give birth or something. Although Anna and Maya burst out laughing, everyone else just stared at them in horror and shock.

Maura shook her head and rolled her eyes. "Ugh, you guys are so weird sometimes. Way to be late to my party, you guys."

"Sorry," Maya and Anna mumbled, staring at the floor.

Delilah sighed. "Jesus, Maya. You scared the shit out of me."

"Okay. So, here's the thing, you guys," Maura excitedly said. "No one is going to sleep tonight."

Connie giggled. "Wait, what?"

"My swim meet's at 8:00, so there's like, no way," some random girl, Gina, complained. 

"No one cares. We're staying up," Maura groaned. 

"I'm down," Anna grinned. "How are we going to stay up?"

As she said that, Maura stood up and grabbed a huge bottle of soda and brought it over to the group. "Drink up, bitches," she snickered as she downed practically a quarter of the entire thing.

"Ew," Heather laughed. "You expect us to all share a bottle that you put your mouth on?"

"Hell yeah," Anna exclaimed as she took the bottle from Maura. 

Maura smiled. "We're going to be so hyper, you guys."

"Oh my God, Anna, you're gonna be up all night," Maya said. "That's a huge sip."

Delilah made a grossed out face as she pushed the bottle away as Anna offered it to her. "Dude, there's no way."

"Oh, whatever, Lila," Maura said, crossing her arms. "You're such a buzzkill."
