Truth Or Dare

Imagine:

"Hey guys. What are you all up too?" I asked, curiosity peaked because everyone of my friends were sitting in a circle. "We are about to play truth or dare. Wanna join?" Patrick asked. "Of course" I smiled. I looked around for a seat but all the chairs were taken. "C'mere babe" Carl said, taking my hand and pulling me into his lap.

Now before you start to make assumptions, no, Carl and I aren't dating. We both obviously like one another but neither of us had the courage to make a move. We have always been best friends but we did some couple type things as well. For example we slept in the same bed sometimes (just cuddling) we hug and hold hands. For crying out loud, I'm sitting in his lap.

There was one girl keeping me away from him. Her name was, Santana. She was tall and beautiful. The worst is that she had it bad for Carl. Santana didn't hide it either. She was always all over him. The thing that kept me going after him though is that I know he wanted me and not her.

I settled myself in his lap with a smile and his arms wrapped around my front. "Okay, Beth truth or dare?" Carl asked. "Dare" she answered. "I dare you to hug Patrick" Carl laughed. I burst out into giggles because Beth hated Patrick. Although, Patrick was completely head over heels for her. I watched as she hugged him and pulled away quickly.

"Carl, truth or dare?" Beth asked him with a smirk. "Do you need to ask? Dare!" Carl declared. "I dare you to have seven minutes in heaven" Beth said. "Alright, (Y/N)? Coming with me?" Carl asked me. "No, not with her. With Santana" Beth interrupted. Santana grinned and Carl looked at me for permission. I nodded because I can't keep him from doing it if we aren't dating.

I got up from his lap, letting him get up. I watched with pain in my heart as he walked into the closet with Santana. My heart ached as I heard the lock on the door and the timer being set. I wanted to cry but I also felt like he might not do anything with her because I know for fact that he likes me.

Patrick placed his hand on my back, rubbing it around trying to soothe me. "It's obvious he loves you. Don't worry" Patrick smiled. I nodded and tried to ignore the big lump in my throat.

For the two in the closet in might have been seven minutes in heaven but for me it was seven minutes of anticipation. The timer dinged and I stood up with Beth to open the closet door. She opened it slowly and I gasped at what I saw. Santana and Carl's mouths were United, clearly making out.
"Carl?" I sighed, a crack in my voice as I was about to cry. He pulled away from her and looked at me with a longing look. Tears filled my eyes and I ran off, even though he was calling my name.

I ran to my cell, getting questioned by Daryl and Glenn along the way. I stuffed my head into my pillow as hot tears streamed down my warmed cheeks. 'Why would he love me? Santana is so much prettier and taller. She's smarter and more mature.' I thought. All these thoughts about why he'd love Santana ran through my head when I heard a knock on my cell door.

I turned to see Carl. I looked at him. His shirt was shifted and lips were swollen. "What?" I groaned, shoving my head back into my pillow. "I want to talk to you" Carl sighed and the. The bed dipped as he clearly sat down. I turned over "about what? About how you made me think you liked me when all along you liked Santana?" I yelled angrily. I placed my head on my pillow and closed my eyes as tears still flew free.

"(Y/N), I always liked you. I never hug Santana. I never hold her hand. I never sleep with her when she has a nightmare. I never cuddle with her and I'd never give my life to save her. That entire time in that closet I was pretending she was you." Carl informed me. I huffed with annoyance. Carl climbed on top of me, hovering over me and I felt his nose in my hair. I heard him inhale. "I don't love the smell of Santana's hair. Santana isn't perfect like you. (Y/N), you are beyond gorgeous." Carl told me then whispered in my ear " I love you (Y/N). Please believe me" 

I sighed and smiled. "I can't stay mad at you, Carl". Carl smiled brightly and said "truth or dare?"  I laughed and answered "dare". Carl told me "I dare you to kiss me". I smiled and nodded. He leaned down, pressing his lips to mine. Sparks of electricity went off in my stomach and even though it was a short kiss, it meant everything to me because this was my first kiss. Carl pulled away and looked at me with the biggest smile on his face. "(Y/N), will you be my partner in crime in this shit world?" Carl asked, moving my hair and tears out of my face. "Of course. C'mere babe" I said pulling him into a hug.
