Truth or Dare

Chapter 1

   "Ready?" my best friend Victoria called out to me from upstairs. Rolling my eyes I finished with my mascara, not even bothering to answer her. You would think after six years of being best friends she would just get my routine. Five more seconds to go curling my eyelashes, and we were set for a night of amazingness!

  "Alright hooker, you're make-up is perfect, let's go.....I'm in the mood to get buzzed!" she yelled again finally making it downstairs. Being seniors in high school meant it was time to finally let loose and maybe get a little wild. Both of those are things we were hesitant of before because of college applications, but after finally getting our acceptance letters it was time to show everyone in school what we had been holding back for so long.

  "K, let's GO!" I yelled, grabbing everything I would need for a perfect night out....license, cash, lip gloss, camera, and condoms....maybe tonight would be the night I finally lost it.

  "Yea, good thing you remembered the protection...." Tori giggled rolling her eyes, she gave it up a long time ago and doesn't think I ever will. Hey, just because we're in high school doesn't mean you have to be a complete slut.

  Slamming the door behind us and hopping in the impala with Ludacris on the radio, clearly it was going to a night to remember! Pulling into our usual bar "Singles" we could already feel the beat of the music from outside. We may only be 17, but we've been going here since we were 15, because my dad knows some people. No one knows it's where we chill, but it's like our second home, even if it is a bar.

  "Hey, it's my favorite 21 year olds!" the bartender Nick called out to us. He is sooo fine, like lick my lips, check my make-up, and thank God I packed my condoms fine. I've wanted him for 2 years, but of course he's too old for me, so a little shameless flirting is all I can ever get out of him. "Bout time you two rolled in, and made a man's night worth it," he said finding time to come over and hug us. He radiates pure sexiness, 6 foot 1, buzzed head, muscled up, and a fine shade of brown!

  "Too old...Too old" it's my mantra whenever I'm around Nick. Hugging him back and kissing his cheek is as close as I'll ever get to him *sigh* See what I mean about losing my V-card? It's starting to make me sex-craved, I wonder if this is how guys feel all the time?

  Grabbing Tori's hand and pulling her behind me, I was already starting to shake my hips to the beat of Trey Songz booming from the speakers. Dancing is something we both love to do! As we started to get closer to each other and dance, I could feel eyes just watching us. We love coming here, because everyone knows us, so we know we're in good hands, and all the vodka we want is in our hands.....21 or not. We're never super crazy, and we only drink when we're out, but it's definitely a stress reliever.

  3 hours, 5 shots, 2 sex on the beaches, and a thousand dances later, we were at the bar talking to Nick about graduation. We were ready to finally be on our own, meet college guys, and attend all of the college parties we could! Nick knowing that while we're yelling about all of this now, when we're sober we're a little more shy than that, just shook his head at us as he kept wiping down the counters. We always make an entrance, so even though we'd only been there 3 hours, the bar was closing up.

"You girls don't need to worry about anything" he told us, "The guys won't be able to resist you, and the girls will have to like you, because you're the life of the party. And if you ever need a nice piece of eye-candy around to attract em, you know my number" he said, half joking and half serious.

"Thanks Nick," Tori said starting to stand up...."Time to go E" she said grabbing my hand. I guess we'd better head out before my family start worrying about us, not that they ever do. They know we're too responsible to ever let anything happen to us, and of course my dad has everyone at the bar looking out for us.

  On our way out of the bar, one of the guys who had been trying to grind with us all night tried to walk us out now. He was cute if you're into that "I just got done surfing, threw on this shirt, and shook my hair out" kind of thing....which we were definitely not, overplayed! Snapping a quick pic with him to blind him because he was too drunk to recover quick enough, we rushed out the door, into my car, and sped onto the highway. 

  When we finally pulled into my drive-way, I could see that my brother and cousin were having a few of their friends over. I groaned out loud. Both of them are super protective of me because I'm legit family and Tori since they've known her just as long as I have, so she's basically family. It was hard enough to try to sneak past them in our short dresses when they were in the next room in the house, but now we would have to walk straight past them. "Let's just get this over with girl" I said checking my reflection in the rearview mirror to see how drunk I looked....minimal which is always good.

  "Ready?" Tori said as we looked at each other, nodded, and opened our car doors trying to show as little leg as possible. Tori is tall, leggy, and thin, so the chances of her being checked out were pretty dang high. She has straight blonde hair just past her shoulders that she's constantly trying new styles on. I, on the other hand, am 5'5, curvy in all the right places, and have long dark curls half-way down my back. In short, we're complete opposites, but we're both gorgeous considering we get hit on all the time when we're out.

  We didn't even make it half-way to the house before my brother Luke and my cousin Tommy came over carrying blankets to wrap us in, while taking turns hugging us and kissing us on the cheeks (we're half italian). Shaking our heads, we took the blankets and wrapped them around us because when it comes down to it, they're both just looking out for us, so the least we can do is wrap a blanket around ourselves sometimes. Walking over to their friends to say hello before crashing, I noticed a few guys that didn't look too familiar from across the lawn. Luke and Tommy have grown up with the same friends since grade school, so anyone new always throws me off.

  "Hey guys this is my sister Gabrielle, and her best friend Victoria," Luke always introduces us by our full names because he claims only people close to us should be able to use our nick-names. Usually everyone calls me Elle, but Tori calls me E, and usually everyone calls her Tori, but I call her T. 

   "Yeah, you're in my english class aren't you?" one of the guys asks and it takes me a second to realize he's staring at me.

 I find myself staring into the most gorgeous green eyes I have ever seen. I know it's Noah Pierce before I even take in the rest of him. He is a god at our school, always a rebel, but in a, the-teachers-love-me-anyways, kind of way. I swear he could start a fight in the middle of a class, and nothing would happen as soon as he turned his lip up into his tell-tale smirk.

  "Yea, third period, Mr. Jack" I said, letting him know that he doesn't get to me. I mean seriously, people in high school can be lame. I am not getting caught up over someone who's probably gonna end up in jail anyways.

  "Maybe I'll have to transfer to that class," Tori tells him while licking her lips.

   Ugh, she can be so obvious sometimes, but it's one of the many reasons I love her. We are complete opposites in that way.

  Yawning, we introduced ourselves to the other two guys, Jamal and Trey, short for Trejon.

  "K, time for the girls to head in, they've had enough fun for one night," Luke told everyone pushing us towards the front door. If I wasn't so tired I would let him have it, but I am in serious need of a bed, blanket, and a pillow right now.

  "Yea, night guys," Tori and I called over our shoulders.
