This chapter has some smut so you can skip once you get to the truth or dare
"Happy 22nd birthday honey, were gonna have a huge party", her dad said to her, "now, Lizzy go get ready", she stood up from her bed and looked at the maid who was cleaning and went to have a shower. She ran downstairs only to get surprised by her mom with a cake in her hand, it'd been a year since her grand mom died and she and her dad were going to make the rest of their lives worth wild. He had gotten married to the most caring and beautiful step mom ever, her name was Ana Christiane Ranalde. Everything had changed, she had gone back to school and could now finish her education as she had dropped out of school because of her Nana but now had a few months till she graduated, thankful her dad was stinky rich and the money she was given by her first love Austin made them richer, they were now living in Europe and she had kept her past  behind and had even gone to the extent of changing her name from Cherise to Elizabeth, she was no longer seen as an ex convict and was happy with her life, she had a boyfriend, she was no longer a gangster nor was she the lover of dead men, she was happy about the fact that she had someone to call her mom and the joyous thing was Ana had married her dad even after knowing both their pasts, she had married him even after knowing that when he was a boy he ran away from home and slept with countless women and then shed blood just to gain trust of a late gangster whom he inherited some of their wealth from. She looked around and drove to school, in three months time she'd graduate and gain full access of her dad's company and her boyfriend was loved by all, no dangerous or ugly past, no dark and dangerous side, but like every human, he had his flaws but still he was s good guy they'd been friends for a while and had just started a relationship, to be honest it was their moms that hooked them up and six months after their graduation they would have to get married she couldn't wait, but for now she had to celebrate her birthday.
On arriving to school, she was greeted by her boyfriend Lance Greenfield, he was 6'9 and he had the brightest chocolate brown eyes she had ever seen and it made her fall for him every time, he had the face structure of a Roman god with skull crushing muscles and biceps, he wasn't looking like a wrestler but more of a high school jock. He came closer to her and engulfed her in a heart felt embrace then careful and slowly pulled away but in his love showing eyes they hugged again while his hand on her left ass, it was a normal thing for them as the have had sex countless time, their wedding date was set and the only had nine months to plan their wedding, she pulled away and he spoke,"baby, happy birthday, one more year of loving you ahead, love every bit of you", he called one of the guys from his  mother's jewelry store and he brought a gift, it was a new Rolex watch, looking at the gold and real diamonds, she had noticed it spelt her name in the middle, "awww thanks Lance its beautiful, I love it and I love you", she said then he said, "come on love, your my Lizzy, I'd do so much for you, we gonna have a great time, can't wait for your birthday party baby, but for now gotta go to class" he gave her a peck on her lips and then left, then she got ambushed by Elma and Marie, her best friends, Elma was a blonde with a pale skin and dark grey eyes, she was 5'7 having the shape of a model and was the girl of every guy's dream, she was the party animal among the three of them while Marie was a fair girl with chestnut brown hair and had a height of 5'7 had cute pink lips and blue eyes with a figure 8 shape. They asked questions and were squeaking in excitement, finally catching their breath, she was given a changed to speak and told them every thing making them awwwww in unison. Classes was even more boring that day and it seemed like forever till the bell was rung indicating that it was time for lunch. Elma, Marie and her went in for lunch and sat on their regular bench, as they were talking Lance, Michael and Drake walked up to them. Drake was a tall guy with dark skin and slight pink lips, he didn't have a muscle like structure like Lance but he was still a close second, he had a low cut and wasn't known for keeping his hair long, he a cute accent as he was born and raise in Australia but was blessed with an American vocabulary, from the crew he used to hang around with while Michael was another tall guy like his friends, he had a pale skin colour with hazel green eyes that stroke love and lost into girls, with his killer smile, hot face and body structure the only girl who didn't tolerate him was Marie. "Sup ladies" Drake said smiling at Elma, they were a fun group but Marie and Michael had some bitterness for each other but to the rest of them they knew those two were in love, Elma was Lance's sister and so that was what made them become a group. "Hey lady, seems like your happy no wonder the dark cloud is over your head today, that's a good start in being a real human" Michael said to Marie while he smirked, "sick burn, my dead grandma spits more insults that you, but let's face facts your an insult to man kind so just shut it", Marie said giving him a shutting reply, "any ways, Lance and I are gonna be having truth or dare tomorrow night, who's in?", Elma said changing the topic and clearing the uneasy and weird air that floated from Michael and Marie's conversation. They all agreed, the rest of the school by quicker than it did before lunch.
******************************
The party set off, it had a costume theme, every one was dressed in different customs from puppies to pirates, Lizzy came down in a Harley Quinn costume while Lance was dressed as a bad rugged guy, the party had no parents and the only adult there was Lizzy's aunt who was a wild card herself. When Elma and Marie came they were flooded by the drunk teenagers by the gate and in the house and after swimming through a sea of heads, they made it to the basement were smoking and more drunk teens were laughing saying rubbish and having fun. With just a few seconds of arriving, Elma being a party animal sprung into action taking a vodka and pulling  Drake to the dance floor, as they were dancing Marie and Michael had started their bickering that never ended well and had bottles of beer to help them gain more energy to argue more. After a while, BoYs would be bOyS, a popular music band came to give a live performance and by this time a good 98% of the people there were drunk including the wild card of an adult asked to chaperone, in the mist of a lot of people, Lizzy had thought she saw the beast named Bradley Hamilton and went closer only to find the figure she saw gone but as she was drunk, it could be the alcohol she took having an effect on her.  At about 00:50, people started leaving dropping birthday wishes and presents while carrying cakes and whatsoever they could while drunk, there was a team that ensure everyone got home safe and sound and then Lance who wasn't as drunk as Lizzy took her to home and then went home himself. 
The following day was Saturday so she could rest and sober up as she was having a hangover, she and the girls had gone shopping a few hours after she had sobered up, they went to Elma's penthouse and had told their parents it was a sleep over. The place was set and it was time to start the game, they sat in a circle all excited as Elma, the first, player spun the bottle and the top landed in front of Michael, she looked at him and asked, "truth or dare", he looked at her unsure as he turned his face to Marie's side, making her feel weird as his hazel green eyes pierced into hers, as if he was looking directly into her soul and gave a devilish smirk and answered "truth", "what are you and Marie hiding that you spoilt your relationship so bad that you two always bicker about one thing or the other" Elma asked making Marie look at Michael and causing an awkward silence to fill the room before he opened his mouth to speak.
