An inch of snow was piled on the yard. Christmas lights decorated the gloomy houses that stood silent on the hill of Mary Rose Village. In a small house, a little group of teens sat before the chimney, chatting away, not a care in the world.

" Let's play spin the bottle, " said Calum, a dark - haired teen, who was sitting next to Luke, a blonde, who agreed. Others mumbled a " yes, ". Calum grabbed a bottle of bear from the table, spinning it, as it landed on Chloe. " Loe, who do you pick? "

Chloe pondered on her bestfriends' faces, finding it hard because she might be blamed on favoritism. Chloe picked Marshallee, who smirked. " Allee, truth or dare? " The others stayed silent as Marshallee sat, contemplating on truth or dare as her reputation sat, patiently.

" Dare. " she muttered, feeling proud of her choice. Nothing could go wrong with dare, because if not, her hands would get crammed in Luke Hemmings' hands. In which she wouldn't like that because she has a huge crush on him.

Chloe huddled up with Calum, Luke, Ashton, Michael, Ella and Marceline, Mashallee's cousin. " I dare you to tell us your crush. "

Shit, I'm caught, thought Marshallee. She bit her lip, silently begging Chloe, Ella and Marceline with her eyes for them to choose another dare. But they disagreed, shooking their heads a little. " Fine, I have a crush on Percy Jackson. " she said, seriously.

" What? " Luke laughed.

" He's hot. " Marshallee defended, glad he bought it. Chloe frowned, Ella and Marceline folded their arms to their chest. " What? It's true. "

" Whatevs, just spin the bottle, Liar. " Ella said, as Marshallee rolled her yes, spinning the bottle with the tip of her fairly white finger. The bottle spinned, until it stopped in front of Ashton. " Ashton, spill the beans, or do shit. "

" Do shit, ofcourse. " Ashton replied, easily. He wiggled his brows, smirking to himself. " But hey, don't fucking swear. "

" Oh, Ashton. " Marceline shook her head, mocking Ashton, jabbing a finger to his chest. " I'll dare him," Everyone mumbled a " yes, ". " I dare you... to kiss Ella. " Marceline said, causing everyone to gasp.

" You are so getting it, Celine. " Ashton, along with Ella, said.

" Look how excited they're getting, " mocked Marceline as she recieved glares from Ashton and Ella. Blushing profusely, Ashton inched his way to Ella, pecking her sweetly on the lips. " Now, that's enough, my OTP. "

" Shut up, bitch. "

" No swearing, Ashton. "

" Shut up. " Ashton said as he jabbed his finger on the bottle, turning it, as he sipped on his cup of beer. It turned ever so quickly and stopped to point at Chloe. " Loe, same question. "

" Imma spill the beans, dudes, since no one would pick that, or grow any balls to do so. " Chloe said, rubbing her hands together. She crossed her fingers, placing them on Ashton's hands. " I have five seconds of summer, Tonash. " Ashton nodded.

" If you were to date one of us boys, who would it be? "

" Why would I date one of you? "

" Some particular situation, just answer the question. "

" That rhymed. "

" one, two, three, four, five, " Ashton said and started squeezing Chloe's fingers.

" Shit, CALUM! " Ashton let go of her hands and laughed hysterically, while Calum blushed. " Dammit, Ashton! You squeezed too hard! "

" I know right? I'm so fab! " Ashton laughed some more, being joined by the others. " Shit, you should've seen your freaking face, dude! "

Chloe rolled her eyes. " Let's play Memories, guys. Truth or Dare hurts too much. "

" I have one! " Luke exclaimed. " Remember when we used to go hiking every summer, just to see the beautiful sight? "

"Pfft ha, pfft ha, pfft ha, pfft ha, pfft ha, yes. " Michael said, rolling his eyes.

" But the sun set at Santa Cruz's was the best yet. " Chloe said.

" Remember that time when we road skate boards to an All Time Low concert? It was the best. " said Marceline.

" How about that time when we played music at the park, just for fun, and everyone started putting money on the floor, it looked so weird. " said Ella.

" I remember that time we went to a fieldtrip and went skiing, making snowmans, singing and shit all week? " said Ashton.

" Or the time we presented at a talent show and got free tomatoes that were squashed by Michael? " Calum inquired.

" Or when we made Youtube covers, and still do, " Michael said.

" Or when we went to the carnival and played games and all that. You guys won me a penguin that day. " Luke said.

" Or the letters we made for our future soul mates and selves. It was the best fun yet. Those letters are still in the backyard, after 10 years, guys. We also hid some strange things there. " said Marshallee.

They all sighed. " Maybe five more years, we can dig 'em up and have a throwback. " said Calum.

" Letters from us, aren't they? "
