Serena's POV

This game is risky. If I agree to everything they say and avoid drinking too much, then they would suspect my innocent as a spoiled business daughter who is supposedly shelter at home her whole life.... But if I were to drink most of them and avoid their suspicions then I would be caught for being sober.
I can't let them know I been drinking Vodka like water back in Russia as a kid.

Everything is just risky. Fuck!

"I'm going to send all the guys into a coma tonight. Never have I ever fucked a girl from Rosemary."

"Fuck bitch... that's a low blow!" Blake scowls next to Koen before taking the shot of Vodka along with most of his friends Kyle and Dustin except Koen who's only staring at me from across the table.

"Eat dog shit when you're a manwhore!" Kathy snaps back holding the middle finger to display.

"My turn, never have I ever had a friend with benefits." Chantel says proudly only for all of Koen's friends to smile confidently taking their shots.
I look over and see Britney quietly tipping hers back.
"Oh Fuck Britney! When? You didn't tell us shit!" Chantel grabs Britney and interrogates her violently.
"Sorry girl, there's no rule to answer anything. Never have I ever thought their friend's parents are hot!" Britney weakly apologies then turns forwards and down a shot, "also sorry but your daddy's hot."
"Omfg you're crazy today!" Chantel slaps Britney on the arms then turns embarrassed, her face red.

"Your turn, Amelia." Chloe nudges me by the shoulders, then everyone silently stares towards me but all I see in front is Koen's smirk.
"Umm... never have I ever been to an abandoned building." I shamelessly lied testing whether or not Koen would call me out or take the drink.
He keeps his eyes on me as I hold mine firmly and then he takes the shot while I watch.
"And what were you doing there, babe?" Chloe's voice sucks me out from Koen's stares as she peers up to Dylan.
"Just watching some fights and buying some special somethings."

"Ohh ok. My turn~ never have I ever received love from my mum." She says coldly but a sense of sadness and loneliness lingers between the lines.

I watch as everyone takes a shot, seeing that everyone is loved by their mothers. I release a heavy breath and stare at the shot in front of me, hesitating. I reach for the shot and tip it back only this time the Vodka burns my throat leaving a bitter taste.

"Never have I ever given a blow job." Dylan moves on taking justice back for his friends.
I watch as Chloe and her friends empty their glasses, "too bad all of you don't get to experience it." Britney points at all the guys besides Dylan and wheeze.

"Omg Amelia!" Kathy suddenly calls for me and the attention is back onto me. Fuck's sake. Her expression held in shock with her hand covering her mouth making everyone beyond confused, "you didn't pop the cherry?"

I just smiled and placed a finger on my lips. Britney's eyes widen even further as she faces me, "then... are you new to drinking too?"
But I only continued to smile and not answer them. Then they continue.

After Dylan was Kylie then Blake and now Koen's turn, "Never have I ever been home schooled." He smiles obviously targeting me in front of everyone.
"Ask another one, asshole!" Chantel slams her hand onto the table but his eyes doesn't wonder away from mine.

"No."
"Then we're skipping you Ken-Dick."
"Take the shot Amelia."
"She ain't taking shit!"

I pour the liquor into my glass and raise it forward for him to see before I drink it. "You better sleep with your eyes open." Chantel warns him but he doesn't react or hear. Is she drunk?

"Lucky last me, never have I ever made out with someone in front of a crowd." Dustin says looking around to see Britney then Chantel and Blake to empty their drinks first.
I smile and stare at Koen before pouring another shot for myself and slowly tipping it down within looking away. I could see the shock on his face.

"Omg what? How When Why Who Amelia?" Chloe turns to me and grabs the empty cub out of my hand and puts in onto the table.
"At an event, years ago." I whisper but still loud to reach the ears I want to reach. "Oh but where are you staying for the night?" I take my chance to ask her.

Koen's POV

I can't take my fucking eyes of her, even if everyone here were to point a gun at me It would not stop me from looking at her. She's sitting directly in front of me whispering to Chloe about her "made out with someone in front of a crowd."

"At an event, years ago." I can clearly hear her whispers to Chloe but all I want to know is who. Who the fuck did she let put their lips on her.

"Tequila time!" Britney and Kathy both cheer, "may the people in relationship do not participate because it's spin the bottle." Britney announces aiming towards Dylan and Chloe only.
"We'll watch." Chloe answers.

"We'll spin the bottle twice because having the same couple from both end is boring." Britney says slowly trying to not slur on her words as she's getting drunk. "The first land is salt and the lime slices, second land Drinks." Then she grabs an empty bottle of Vodka then spun it hard in the centre of the table.

First lands on Kathy.
Blake spins the bottle then it slowly stops on Kylie.
Kathy smirks then grabs the salt and a piece of lime before stepping out of the pool, walking over towards Kylie on the other side.

"Owwww!" All of my friends whale boosting his confidence sky high.
Kathy bites onto the piece of lime before handing over the salt to Kylie as he sprinkles the salt onto her wrist.
He holds the shot in one hand as he slowly licks the salt off the length of her wrist then throws the tequila back before coming in close to her lips for the lime.

"Woooo!" Everyone cheers and applause. Then we all shuffle for them to sit beside each other to close the opportunity to be selected together again.

Another round replays with Chantel and Dustin then Chloe and Dylan wanting to join.

Serena's POV

I glance down my watch and see that it is nearly time for my hunt. I close my eyes for a moment, calculating the estimate time it would take me to run back to the house, change and then head towards the meeting grounds. Then facing Britney, I frown with a tired expression.

"Hey Britney, after I take my turn for this I'm heading back early. I can't stomach anymore." I say weakly and slowly blink hoping she would fall for my act.
"Then let's make it your turn now,-" she says leaving me confused, "the next round is Amelia's, she's leaving early." Then she spins the bottle so hard it doesn't just spin in a spot.

The bottle whirls like a tornado towards Blake then it serves and hits his Vodka bottle sending it back towards the far centre from me. Now the bottle loses its pace and slows down , pointing towards my far left.....the cap points between Kathy and Blake.

Koen Kendrick.
