The Suicide Circle

Hedgehog

Maisie's POV

"I'm... A FLAMING LESBIAN!!!"

She laughed and Grayson spit out his drink.
"Wait what?! You're serious?!"

"Of course." Liana was calm now.

"Wha-then why didn't you ever come out to us?!"

"Cause you guys aren't my type." She smiled, and Katell held in a burst of laughter.

I looked at Katell weirdly, and she went back to normal.
"Why don't we play another game instead?" She raised her eyebrows to prevent a smile, but it didn't really work.

"Okay." Dakota said, smiling at Katell, pouring the alcohol into a nearby glass, then laying the bottle on the ground.

"We're spinning the bottle?" I asked, not knowing exactly how to play this either.

"Sort of." Katell shrugged.

"So what's this game?"

"You'll see." She smirked at me, then glanced at Liana, who was confused. I looked at Liana and she shrugged, then turned to Katell.
"Alright, so what do we do?"

"Maisie, spin the bottle." Katell nodded her head toward me, and I did as she told. The bottle pointed to her.

"Oops." Dakota shifted it so that it pointed to Liana.
"Looks like it landed on Liana."

"But you literally just-" Liana pointed to the bottle, and Dakota immediately interrupted.
"No I didn't." He said quickly, then smiling afterwards.

Liana sighed and threw her arms up.
"So it landed on me. Now what?"

"Kiss her! Kiss her!" Grayson chanted, making a rhythm with his hands.

"What?!"

"Eh." Liana shrugged and grabbed my face, then kissed me full on the lips. My eyes were wide in shock, but I didn't move, didn't pull away. It actually felt...kinda good.

"Haha! Yes!" Dakota high fived Katell and Grayson as I relaxed into the kiss. Liana soon pulled away and smiled when I unintentionally licked my lips.

"So what do we do now?" I asked after we finished eating.

"Whatever." Katell answered.

"There's no schedule here. Rarely." Liana added, scooting over to Katell and braiding her hair.

"Oh! Is it hair time?" Dakota exclaimed, jumping up to Grayson and immediately running his fingers through brown hair.

I smiled at them, and Grayson smiled back, but Dakota was too busy with hair to look at me.
"Katell, where are the rubber bands?"

Katell, not moving her head, pointed to a box and Dakota immediately ran over to it.

He came back with a handful of tiny elastic bands.

"Hey Maisie, wanna help me?"

"What exactly are you doing?" I laughed.

"Making Gray look beautiful, gorgeous, and stunning!" He posed with every word like a model. I looked at him weirdly and he giggled, running over to Grayson and dumping the hair ties onto his hand.

Liana was still braiding Katell's hair, who was just sitting there watching us.

"You can watch this time, Maisie. But you better help me next time!" He grabbed a clump of hair from Grayson's low key fringe and twirled it.
"Tie." He held out his hand and Grayson handed him an elastic.

He took the elastic and tied the clump of hair, so it was a random tiny ponytail on the top of his head. He did this to the rest of his hair, until it reminded me of a hedgehog.

"Done!"

Liana was already done with Katell's hair, and it looked really complicated. But it was pretty. Grayson's hair on the other hand...

"Good job!" Liana laughed and applauded.

"Did you do the same one you always do?" Grayson looked at Dakota, who smiled and nodded.

"Oh, Dakota..." Grayson sighed and shook his head, fighting back a smile.

Dakota was giggling until he saw Grayson frown.

"Gray, what's wrong?"
He put his hand on Grayson's shoulder, trying to get him to make eye contact. Grayson smirked and turned around, grabbing Dakota and tackling him onto the ground.

"Guys! Guys, stop!" I shouted, not understand what was worth fighting about.

"No, don't!" Liana harshly whispered and pulled me away.
"They're not fighting." She pointed to them.

Well, they weren't fighting alright. There they were, Grayson was tickling Dakota's stomach area and blowing raspberry onto the crook of his neck. Dakota was squirming underneath him, giggling and trying to grab Grayson's hands.

I looked back at Liana and she wiggled her eyebrows, then looked at Katell.

Katell was sitting criss-crossed on the same spot as when Liana was braiding her hair, her chin rested on her elbow. She was actually smiling slightly. But didn't she tell me not to get used to it? Eh.

"Gray! Graayy! St-AHAHAHA!"
Grayson stopped and sat back, while Dakota just laid there, catching his breath.

"Hedgehog." Dakota said, giving Grayson a kiss.
