Lucia's POV
"I can feel you staring" I say to Ethan as I lay with my eyes still closed.
"How long have you been awake for" he runs his hands through my hair.
"Every since I felt you staring" I finally open my eyes and turn to look at him.
"It's creepy when you do that" I laugh.
"I find it a charming thing to do" he kisses my cheek.
"Yeah, no" I get up and brush my teeth in my bathroom.
I change into some clothes besides my pj.
"What do you want to do today" Ethan asks me.
Hmmm. What do I want to do today?
"How about we go the arcade near the mall" I suggest.
"Sounds good. I haven't been there since last year" he gets up and uses the bathroom.

"Can we play air hockey" I ask Ethan when we enter the arcade.
"Okay, but let's make the game interesting" he throws me a devilish smirk.
Oh boy.
"And what might that be" I face him.
"Best 2/3. Whoever loses has to do a dare of the winners choice" he smiles.
"Okay. Be prepared to lose Dolan" I look him dead in the eye.
I'm a competitive person. I hate losing.
We stand on either side of the air hockey table and let the game begin.
---
"Yes! I won" Ethan cheers.
"Bragging is not cute" I scoff.
"Neither is being a sore loser" he smiles.
I flip him of, and he glares at me.
"So for your dare" he rubs his hands together.
"You have to go up to the next person who walks in the arcade and hug them" he pauses.
"That's easy" I sigh in relief.
"But you have to refuse to let go of them" he adds with a laugh.
"What if they file for harassment" I argue.
"I think orange is your color" he smiles.
"Let's just get this over with" I turn my body, so I'm now facing the entrance.
8 minutes later
"Ethan, no one is coming into the arcade" I sit down.
"Looks like you just jinxed yourself" he nods his head behind me.
