There's Always A Reason... [Book 1]

Chapter 10

Sean's POV

Max and I sat there in the lounge, with crossed legs on the floor.

While Emily and Eve were in the kitchen, bringing something for us to eat and play with...

"You know, I thought, you'd be really rude to her." Suddenly Max said.

"Why so?" I asked in confusion though it was pretty much obvious that they would think like that. Emily was everything I would need in someone to be rude with.

"'Cause she's Leila's best friend." He said it more like a question than an answer.

"I don't care who she is and who she's related to... She is just your guest and...mine too. Besides, since when did Leila start affecting my decisions?"
I snapped at him with continuous shrugs.

"Whatever the reason is, thanks..."

"Hey, when did we start thanking?" I joked with a playful smirk.

That's when Eve and Emily walked in. Emily was holding a tray of food as Eve was holding a glass bottle of champagne...

Emily sat down at the right side of Max.

"Okay, so the rules are same. We will spin the bottle then the person at which the mouth of the spinner is pointing at, will get to choose between truth or dare. Remember, you're going to have to do it or quit. No other options." Eve explained.

"Yeah, yeah. We all know it." I informed Eve and she just rolled her eyes in response...

"Okay, so let's make a circle." Eve said and we were sitting more like in a cross than a circle.

Eve was at my left, Max was at the right side and Emily at the front one.

"Okay, so I'll spin." Eve said as she spun the bottle.

The bottle pointed towards Eve's direction and we all cheered.

"So Truth or Dare?" Max asked.
"I'm not in the mood of doing something stupid so...truth." She selected.

"Okay, so tell...that did you ever want to choke someone to death because of frustration? If yes, then the story?" Max asked excitedly.

"Hell yeah. Once I was going to the market to do groceries. I took a cab. The driver was a real handsome guy. He was well built, well spoken and the usual. We guys talked all the way to market and in the midway, I had already fallen for him. But maybe I was destined to be single." She explained as we all were smiling in amusement.

"Hey, you said you were falling for him then why single?" Emily asked her.

Eve sniggered and said, "That idiot was a gay."

And then we all burst out laughing...seriously, sweet Eve fell for a gay.

"Okay, fine stop it." Eve rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, let's continue." I said somewhere in between my laughs.

We again spun it but this time it was pointing at Emily.

"Truth or Dare?" I asked her with a raised eyebrow and a smirk.

"Dare." She replied confidently.

"Okay, so make Max blush."
I said as Max jerked his head towards me, Emily widened her eyes, Eve gasped and I was still with a raised eyebrow.

"Wait, what?" Max asked.

"You heard me." I shrugged my shoulders and looked at Max with an expression of disbelief which was fake.
