Dark And Deep Blue

chapter 8

"So truth or dare?" Aaron quizzed.

We were bored to death until he came up with this idea.

We spun the bottle soon and it pointed towards Caleb.

We all looked at him asking if he'd take up truth or dare.

"I'm a man! I'll do dares!" He said jumping from his seat.

Lisa slapped him arm playfully.

"So man! Go to that nerd girl and ask her to kiss you right now! Or else, I'll not consider you as a man!" Lisa ordered as she pointed towards a girl who was seriously reading.

"You planning to kill me!"he gulped.

After few seconds, he said.
" Anyways, I'll do it!". He did hesitated and stepped towards her direction, but then stopped and tried to comeback.

Lisa shot daggers at him and her eyes had that look which told him to-do-or -be-ready-to-die.

We were giggling at the scene. As expected, he asked the girl to kiss him. She looked confused and shocked. He indicated his eyes towards us.

When her gaze fell upon us, she just smiled and let him go.

Lisa was literally cursing Caleb.

"See,I did it! After all I'm a gentleman" he teased Lisa and winked at us.

We all laughed and chuckled at Lisa.

"Now, spin again!" Said Aaron hurrily.

The bottle spun and stopped right at me!!

Whoa! Your time kiddo teased the demon.

Will you stop! I don't want people to look at me as if I'm insane! I mentally scolded it and shut it out.

"So, it's princess' turn!" Exclaimed Aaron.

"I choose dare!" I said boringly averting my gaze at him.

"Wait, I'll give you the dare!" Interrupted Caleb. He was smirking. He definitely is upto something.

He searched the place and then
his eyes fixed at one place.

"You see the new girl? "He pointed towards the girl who wore grey top.

"Yeah" I looked towards her, but I couldn't see her as she had her back on me.

"Good! Go to her and slap her as hard as you can" he said raising his hand.

" Fine! " I said and stood up to leave.

I did like the dare. A part of me wanted a fight, but then slapping an innocent would be wrong.

Who cares? I'm definitely enjoying it! Slowly said the demon.

You again! I shoved it off my mind.

I grabbed the girl who was about my height by shoulder and swung my hand back. I gave her a fully forceful slap.
As soon as I slapped her, she fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, it was a dare which my friends gave!" Is all I could say.

She looked upto me on disgust. I gave her my hand to stand up. Surprisingly, she took it and stood up.

I smiled at her in apology. But her facial expressions were neutral. I studied her and found that her eyes were turquoise, just like the waters.

I was completely  absorbed in them. I kept looking in them. They reminded me of my mother.
