The Naturals

I Dare You

As we left the restaurant I hopped in the driver seat again and drove back to the house but taking a path where we could see the Chicago lights and tourist spots. "So pretty" Lia said looking out the window amazed along with Cassie. While Sloane was stating facts to Dean and Michael I drove in silence, consumed by the music from the radio. Once we got home I tossed the keys to Michael, we opened the garage so Michael could park his car inside. I almost screamed in pure joy when I saw my beautiful motorcycle standing there. "Shadow" I yelled as I hopped on, everyone looked at me like I was crazy. "Nice, I might ride this to school tomorrow" I said hopping back off. I moved it a little so Michael could fit his car in the garage. We all walked back in the house and put our bags in our rooms, I walked down stairs with a bag of gummy bears in my hand. I saw everyone in the living room and joined them, "okay, great everyone's here" said Lia with a wide grin. "Why,what are we doing" I asked Lia tossing a gummy bear in the air and catching it in my mouth. Lia stood on the couch "truth or dare everyone" she said with jazz hands. "Sure" I said, tossing a gummy bear to Dean who caught it in his mouth and smiled. "Apparently it's a tradition for all the newbies" cassie said rolling her eyes. We all sat outside on the beautiful patio lined with lanterns, I poured the gummy bears in a big bowl and put them in the middle of the table for everyone. "Well, you first Siren" Lia said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes at her, I never really liked this game it was always such a party cliché "It's ok if you don't want to play, we understand" said Cassie with a smile. "It's Ok" I assured Cassie "Michael" I said looking at him as he tossed a gummy bear in his mouth, "truth or dare". He rubbed his chin jokingly in deep thought "dare" he said finally, "I dare you to jump in the pool" I said with a grin. "Ugh, your awful" he said taking off his shirt, "you know you love me" I said. He soluted to us then dived in the pool. Lia shivered as he jumped in and you could see her breath, minutes passed by but no sign of Michael. "Michael" I said loudly, no response, "Michael" I screamed, no answer. I took my shirt off and dived in for Michael.
