Mr Nerd Vs Miss Nerdie

[5] Mr Nerd Vs Miss Nerdie

"Lets play Truth and Dare." Melissa beamed with happiness as if it Truth and Dare was the most interesting thing in the world. I snickered at her lame suggestion. Really why did I agree to come here in the first place.

She was wearing a golden summer dress which has a white lace around the waist. I don't want to admire her but the dress is quite pretty. She has been whining for two hours to play this game. And me, well I am in my normal jeans and top with my nerdie glasses.

Cam's grip was still strong around my wrist. He almost dragged me into the party when I protested. And now I am here with these people who hardly recognise me. Sebastian is also here. We chatted a bit in the morning.

As everyone joined the game and started spinning the bottle. Why am i having this feeling that today is not a good day at all. The bottle rolled and rolled while everyone cheered. But to me it felt more like they were chanting Die, Die, Die.

It landed on a guy named Howard. He is a nerd and one of my kind but believe me this guy is a genius. He knows so much about computers that I am sure he can hack into any computer system in the world. He has even helped me with a few projects before.

Melissa grinned evilly. Poor guy. "Truth or Dare?"

Howard hesitated. He didn't look comfortable at all. Why these people have to force someone while they can play it on their own. I never understand their damn problem. "Truth." He said at last. Melissa tapped her finger on her chin.

"I heard your Dad slept with another woman. Is that true?" Her tone was full of excitement. How can she ask such a thing like that? Fuck you bitch.

Howard is a sensitive guy. Rumors have been spread a few days ago that his father was caught with one of his co-workers and now his parents are planning a divorce. Howard already seemed disturbed due to his Dad. He loved his dad very much. His father was like an idol to him. Now Melissa just added more salt to his pain.

"We are playing a game and this must remain within us. Don't exceed your limits." My voice spitted venom with every word. From the corner of my eye I saw Howard's eyes going red. He is going to cry I guess.

Everyone agreed and decided to spin the bottle. Howard stayed silent but after sometime he excused himself for going to the bathroom. He mouthed me a little thank you which I returned with a genuine smile. Melissa happily scoffed. After-all she has succeeded in hurting a nerd. Bravo.

I wish I could slap her right now. I wish I had the power to punish these people. It would have been so great if I could dare someone to slap that bitch. But I can't cause she will hurt me afterwards. Its no use getting hurt. Trust me, it will only make the situation bitter.

The bottle again started rolling. This time it landed on a guy named...uh..I don't know. He was asked to make out with a girl to which he happily agreed. Next it landed on Sebastian.

Cam was the one opposite to him, so it was his turn to ask. "Truth or dare?" He gave his all time smirk.Arrogant guy. I looked at Sebastian who seemed a bit scared.

"Dare." His voice came out as a whisper. I can see the sweat on his face. Cam thought for a moment.

"Go and slap Melissa the hardest you can." I was taken a little aback but a grin automatically appeared on my face. Cam is a mind reader or what. Everyone went silent. Nobody could believe that a nerd has been given the right to slap someone from the popular group. The silence was awkward.

I pinched myself and even asked Cam to pinch me so that I can ensure this is not a dream. Ow! It hurts. So this is not a dream. Still I am not sure whether my eyes are betraying me or not.

I pulled out my mobile and quickly clicked on the camera option. I need to capture this moment. Can't let go of such an opportunity.

"No way." Melissa said giving a death glare to Sebastian who now stood up and slowly made his way towards Melissa. His legs were not shaking as I expected, instead he was walking casually as if he was just taking a stroll in the park.

"Its just a dare. You won't die." And with that Sebastian's hand made contact with her face. The house went so much silent that the only the sound of the slap echoed through the house. I could feel my mouth hanging open. I cannot believe Sebastian just did that. Everyone's gaze were fixed on Melissa.

She was silent. I don't know what's going on in her mind, probably revenge. After a moment when she opened her mouth, nothing came out. Seems like Sebastian's slap was pretty hard on her. Good job Seb, I love you so much right noe.

Shit no, I didn't mean it in another way.

Melissa slowly stood up and muttered something, her eyes never leaving Sebastian's face. I expected her to slap or threaten him but she walked away. Yeah she just walked away. As much as I wanted to believe this really happened but my sixth sense was telling me something is hidden. Why do I smell something fishy here?

*_*

The entire day passed away with Truth and Dare. No one talked about Melissa anymore. No more nerds were harassed. The rest of the game was fun. I noticed Sebastian stealing glances at me whenever he can. Sometimes he looks so adorable. Luckily the bottle didn't turn towards me at all.

Speak of the devil. The bottle landed on me just when I was planning to leave. "Truth or Dare?" A guy opposite to me asked.

I don't have a clue what to say but I have to say something anyway.  "Dare."

The guy smirked. Whats with guys and smirking? They only know how to smirk. "Kiss Cameron." My eyes widened as I turned to look at Cam who looked equally surprised. Both of us shook our head, we are like best friends but not in the romantic way.

"You two can't chicken out now. Its a dare." The girl next to him stated as a matter of fact and started pouting which reminded me of a homesick pickle. Weird? I know.

"Please give me something else to do." I pleaded.  The guy looked at me, then to Cam. There was a stare battle going on between them. I think Cam is telling him to change the dare. But I kept on begging to him.

"Fine. Go on a date with Sebastian tomorrow." His words felt like a heart attack to me. Why they have to say things which I don't like. "If you say no, then you have to kiss Cameron."

I looked between Cameron and Sebastian. Right now the dating option is more safe than the kissing one. Anyway I am not going to kiss Cam, so its better I go on a date. I never went on one before.  What harm can it possibly do. Just one day and then everything back to normal.

"Option two." I said in a monotone voice. Everyone gave me their evil stare and Sebastian simply blushed. I could feel my cheeks turning red now. Am I also blushing?

God knows what will happen now.
