Chapter 2
He came back to me with a smile.
"So Patrick, this is Nicole. Nicole, this is Patrick."
Patrick looked into my eyes and said,"It's lovely to meet you, Nicole."
"You too... Patrick.", I say.
We walked away from him awkwardly.
And somehow Gabe and I ended up exchanging numbers. We said goodbye and I went to my dorm.
Inside, stood two girls, who were yelling.
I couldn't even understand them. They were speaking another language. French maybe?
They stopped arguing and looked at me.
"I'm sorry. We argue all the time. We argue in French so people can't understand. My name is MarQueisa and this is my step sister Jadaya. We were arguing because she likes this room better than hers."
Jadaya said to me," I guess I'll just go." She gave her sister a glare and walked out the door.
MarQueisa and I hugged awkwardly.
She asked me," Are you going to that party tonight?"
"Seems like it. Do you know Gabe?"
"Nope. What's your name? I didn't catch it."
"I'm Nicole Waters. Pleasure to meet you." I shook her hand.
"It's getting late, we should get ready.", MarQueisa said.
I didn't have any dresses, or anything fancy for that matter, so I put on some skinny jeans, kept my converse and Gabe's jacket, and put on a Doctor Who tee.
MarQueisa had on a beautiful floral shirt and leathery pants. She had on yellow strapped wedges. On her wrist was a golden bracelet.
"You ready?", she asked.
I nodded.
Oh, by the way, you can call me MarMar.
We walked into the woods where the so called party was.
We started to see a light. It was a bonfire.
We got to the fire to see 7 people. This wasn't the legit party, it was sort of a mini party instead of a huge one with a lot of people.
And of course, we had alcohol.
The campfire was surrounded by Gabe, Patrick, Jadaya, and four other people. Everyone came and introduced themselves.
There was Shaylin, Shaun, Megan, and Tyler, who told me to call him TyTy.
There were large logs set out for seats, and there was a fold up table for drinks and snacks.
Gabe and I sat down on one log, Megan and Shaun on one, and Jadaya, MarQueisa, Tyler, and Patrick on the longest log.
I've always liked bonfires. Singing, ghost stories, secrets... It was all fun to me.
We stared at the flames of the fire, and Patrick was the first to speak up. " We should play Truth or Dare... With a twist."
We all looked at each other wondering what the twist was.
"The twist is that no matter what we dare you to do, you have to do it. No chickening out. Those who fail to do so have to drink a whole bottle of Vodka." He showed us the bottle.
Patrick winked at me.
Silence.
"How about you Nicole? Truth or Dare?"
I knew that in a college version of truth or dare, there was no picking truth. And besides. There dares couldn't possibly be that bad...
Right?
Wrong.
"Dare.", I said confidently.
"I dare you to... He paused to think of something good to say, kiss Gabe."
He had a huge smirk on his face. Gabe was smiling. My face was RED.
Everyone had their phones out. I didn't care if they took a picture, just as long as they didn't post it anywhere.
Gabe looked me in the eyes, and next thing I knew, his lips were touching mine.
His hand went to my cheek and he smiled parting his lips with me but not moving his hand.
We broke apart and I was bright red.
He sad there smiling at me with his pearly white teeth.
We looked into each into each other's eyes for a while, the. He moved his hand off my face.
A chorus of "ooh's" went across the group. MarQueisa winked at me.
So, who's next?
