Truth Or Dare With KISS (37)

Chapter Thirty-Three

(*Later that same evening, Gene Simmons is still in a little bit of pain*)

Me: So, how're you feeling, dragon breath? *snickers* 😆

Gene: *has an ice-pack pressed gently against his abdomen* I'm fine I guess...😑

Suzy: Ankh really did get you good, didn't he?

Vinnie: But I wasn't trying to hurt Gene on purpose...

KellerSinger19: Aw, it's okay Vinnie. No hard feelings! 😃

Vinnie: I still feel bad though...

Me: Cheer up Vinnie. How about I go ahead and see who gets the next dare/truth from the KISS Army?

Paul: That's a great idea Emily. (:

Eric Singer: *is chewing on some Spearmint-flavored gum* Who's next?

Me: *looks at the KISS laptop* Hmm...oh yeah! We've got a dare for Gene.

Gene: Really? While I'm in pain?

Tommy: Come on, it can't be that bad. *pats Gene on the shoulder*

Me: Geez, someone's acting like an old fusspot. Anyway, you've been dared to do your fire-breathing trick.

Gene: What?! 😧 That's not a safe thing to do!

Paul: Yeah, and KISS is officially done with touring. We finished our last two concerts at Madison Square Garden.

KellerSinger19: Really? 😀 I thought you guys had to cancel because you got sick, Paul.

Tommy: We didn't cancel the remaining comcerts, it was just the ones in Toronto and Ottawa.

Paul: Yeah, and I had IV bags in my arm so I would get better faster.

KellerSinger19: Oh okay!

Suzy: Gene, are you doing your dare or not?

Gene: No.

Me: But why?

Gene: Because I said so.

Me: Why?

Gene: Because I don't do that anymore. It's only for your entertainment when we go out onstage.

Suzy: But you guys are retired now, right?

Paul: I don't think he wants to do his fire-breathing anymore.

Me: Can you at least—-

Gene: No.

Me: Okay, FINE! Be a coward all you want.

Gene: I am not a coward.
