THE SLEEPOVER

"I'm bored",Rue said as she moved her Knight on the chess board.
Tris, Rue, sunshine, Daisy and I were sitting in a circle around a table in Tris and Daisy's living room,playing chess. Well, Daisy wasnt playing. She was just lying on the carpet beside Tris with her head on his lap, half asleep.
I yawned. "Let's play something else",I said.
"Why don't we play Truth and dare?",Sunshine said.
"OK. There was a bottle somewhere here",Tris said looking here and there until at last he found the bottle.
Tris put it on the table and spin it. It stopped in front of me. "Ah",I said.
"Truth or dare?",Tris asked me.
"Dare",I said. Truth are a bit boring. I wanted to do something physical and we were all bored.
Rue clasped her hand to her mouth as though she just got the best idea EVER. And her best ideas are the worst.
She motioned to Tris who leaned over as she said something in his ear. He grinned and patted her on the back. "Thats the best",he said looking at me.
"Ok Ray I want you to pick Sunshine up bridal style and turn round four times",Rue said laughing all the way.
"Are you serious?!",Sunshine said.
"Dead serious",Tris said.
"Alright then",she said.
Really? She wants me to pick her up.
It looked as though Sunshine read my mind. "No actually it's that I've never felt what it looked like",she said shyly.
I laughed. "And now you're gonna experience it",I said as we both got up.
"Here we go",she said.
I put an arm around her shoulder and the other behind her legs and lifted her up as she put her arms around my neck. We we're both laughing so much that I thought she will fell down.
"Four rounds!!",Rue shouted. Daisy woke up and started crying. The whole room went into chaos. Tris tried to stop her from crying while Rue apologized to her and stroked her hair making her sleepy again.
I steadied my breathing and tried my best to stop my laugh. Then I clutched Sunshine tighter and spun around four times. I was out of breath at the end of the fourth round. I sighed and cautiously put her down.
I looked and saw Tris and Rue both looking at us, mouth open.
"What?",i asked.
They recovered quickly.
"Nothing",Tris said but I knew there was something.
"OK, next turn",Rue said.
We sat down and I spun the bottle. It stopped at Rue.
"OK, Rue darling. All you have to do is climb on Tris's back and make him run around the whole room with you on his back twice",I said.
"Yay. I want a ride!!",Rue said grabbing Tris.
They both got up. Rue stood on a sofa while Tris stood in front of her with his back to her. Rue put her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. Tris also grabbed her legs on either side and then he started running around the room with Rue shouting glader words at the top of her lungs. It was the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. Sunshine was laughing so much that I had to grab her shoulders to stop her from falling down.
After the second round, Tris dropped Rue on the sofa and collapsed on the carpet, panting with his face looking like a mashed tomato.
"Woman you're heavy",he said to Rue between breaths.
And then we all started cracking up again.
After a few minutes of continuous laughter, I noticed that Sunshine was crying. We all immediately went to her side.
"Hey is everything OK?"
She wiped away her tears.
"Yeah it's just I never thought that I'll have such good friends. We used to live in New York before moving here. The city was all so busy type and noisy and my situation wasnt helping. So one of my doctor suggested that maybe a change in location will be good. I was happy to leave that place as I never had any friends there. Noone wanted to be my friend because I didn't go to school, I was boring because I didn't do anything except watch movies and read books all day. So we came here. I was a bit scared too because at least I knew the people there. I first saw Ray. He was talking to my dad. And then Rue came to talk to me and she was so sweet. I was so relieved that the people are good here. But I never thought I'll get such friends like you all. You guys are amazing!"
She started crying again. Her blonde hair fell in front of her and when she looked up at us I swear she was glowing. Her hair, her face everything was glowing.
"Aww that's so sweet",Rue said and hugged her. Tris and I also followed and then it was a group hug.
"Guys",Tris said with his face in Rues hair. He looked as though he was just about to tell a secret.
"Daisy is snoring so loudly!",he continued. And that made us all start laughing again.
And the same moment we heard the sound of a cars horn just outside the house.
"And that will be my dad. Goodbye everyone!",Sunshine said as she hugged all of us again and rushed out of the front door.
Tris picked up Daisy and put her in bed in one of the rooms. We three talked for a while then Rue yawned.
"I'll go and sleep with Daisy",she said and went to the room. Tris and I played chess for a while then I asked him.
"Why were you and Rue gawking at us like that when I picked Sunshine up?"
"Oh it was that you two we're looking REALLY GOOD together",He said with a smile.
We sat in silence for a while then he got up, winked at me and went to one of the sofa to sleep.
I also got up and laid down on the other sofa and fell asleep immediately.

I can't type anymore *groans*
