Nightcall - Billie Eilish

21 -

The night went on, and Luca kept firing questions, really taking his role as the game host to heart.

I was desperately trying to ignore Billie, right there next to me, because damn, I didn't know if I'd survive another one of her attacks.

A new group had just joined the game, three guys and two girls, all hot, the kind that just added a crispy layer to the chaos.

I honestly didn't expect a teen game to get me this excited.

Luca kept asking his questions, and up until then, Billie had been spared. But, of course, the wheel eventually landed on her. Luca pointed at her and called her out while she was still deep in conversation with Skeet. She turned to listen.

"Yeah?"

"Truth or Dare?" Luca asked, with a sly grin.

She first glanced at me before answering calmly:

"Dare."

She had that damn thing, that way of playing even in the simplest moments. It drove me crazy.

Luca smiled as he read her question, then looked at me. Just for a second. Then his attention shifted to one of the new arrivals.

"You have to kiss Lina."

What?

My heart started racing. She has to kiss who?

I stared at Billie, who was already grinning. A grin way too calm for the situation. She got up slowly, not protesting at all, then walked around the table. Everyone followed her with their eyes.

She stopped in front of Lina, who looked like a 2.0 version of Madison Beer.

Lina stayed seated, watching Billie with a mix of curiosity and desire. Then Lina slowly licked her lips, biting them a little. A subtle way of showing she was 100% in.

Billie grinned even more, fully aware of the effect she had on her. She stepped closer, lifted a hand to gently grab Lina's chin, and pressed her lips to hers.

And damn, that kiss...

It was intense, like really intense.

I couldn't take my eyes off of them. I wished I was Lina.

Or Billie.

Or just somehow stuck in the middle.

The guys around us were like kids, their mouths wide open. When Billie finally pulled away, she traced her thumb over Lina's lips.

Skeet jumped up.

"Thank God, Finn isn't here to see this."

Billie laughed lightly, walking past him, then gently pushed his shoulders to make him sit back down.

"Shut up Skeet."

She came back and sat next to me, keeping her eyes on me.

"Were you that hungry?" I finally said.
