Kayla was opening the door to help break me out of the cell. I look at her confused. "Why are you doing this?" I ask her when she opens the door.

She looks down at the floor as if she didn't exactly know what to say. She then looks back up at me gazing at my lips and suddenly before I know what is happening, she is kissing me.

~ Tristen Shades of the Moon

....

SPIN THE BOTTLE! I HAVE JUST GOTTEN MYSELF INTO A GAME OF SPIN THE BOTTLE! SOMEONE SEND HELP! PLEASE!

I've never kissed anyone before. Plus I think kissing strangers is quite strange. I don't want to kiss someone I don't know. The only person I actually know is Tristen.

Holly and Tristen sat at the opposite end of the circle that I was.

"So everyone knows how to play right?" Holly asks.

Some people nod and others shake their heads. It didn't smell the best either. Most people reek of alcohol. Yuck.

"Basically someone spins the bottle and whoever it lands on they have to kiss. Except we are adding seven minutes in heaven instead of just simple kissing."

I pulled my knees to my chest. I thought people outgrew this by high school. Apparently I was wrong.

'I hate my life, I hate my life, I hate my life! GET ME OUT OF HERE!'

I tried to keep a calm expression on the outside but on the inside, I was freaking out. I'm pretty sure everyone in this circle had kissed someone before besides me. I was going to suck at this. I mean if it got on me the person would probably run away like last time.

Holly started and she spun the bottle. It landed on David, Claudia's boyfriend. Well, that was going to cause drama. Holly smiles. David stands up and walks into a closet with Holly.

I glance over at Claudia to see how she was feeling. She seemed okay but she was my best friend once so I could kind of read her. She seems like she was trying to keep her real emotions in. I felt a bit sad for her. Honestly some days I felt bad for her. She deserves to have better friends than Holly.

After Holly and David came out of the closet, more people take their turns spinning the bottle. Luckily none of them landed on me.

Then it was Tristen's turn. I didn't know if I could watch this. He spun the bottle. It spun for a while. I close my eyes until it stops. I open my eyes expecting Tristen to be walking over to whoever it landed on when I was met with Tristen's eyes. Why was he looking at me? Then I look down at the bottle. It had landed on me. Me. ME! Oh my gosh, I'm going to faint. Then I'm going to die.

I'm literally dead right now.

"You know, you can re-spin Tristen," David says.

"Yeah, Skylar is just watching. Go ahead and spin again."

I already knew what the response was going to be. He was going to re-spin but after what happened in his room...no, he would still spin again.

He smiles at me. "No that's okay."

He suddenly grabs my hand and pulls me out of the room into the closet. The door shut with a loud click and Tristen and I were stuck in the dark for the next seven minutes.

"Tristen, knock if you need any help or want out," David says which makes me roll my eyes.

Tristen and I had been close to each other before but not like this. What did Tristen want to do in here? We were just friends.
