One Of The Guys

Chapter 16

When I walk into the locker room, the cheerleaders are already there. Greaaaat.

"You stink." Cassidy says, pinching her nose.

"So I've been told. And it's called hard work and effort. You could learn something from me." I retort. She just rolls her eyes. I shower and change. By the time I'm done, all the cheerleaders are gone.

Thank God. I meet Jake out by his truck. He's talking to Garrett.

"Hey." I say, walking up to them.

"Hey." They reply.

"Can Garrett come over and hang out with us?" Jake asks.

"I don't care." I reply.

"Cool. I'll follow you there." He says, then goes to start his car.

"Does he know that you're living with me?" I ask Jake.

"No. I just told him we were hanging out and he asked if he could come crash out party." Jake explains. I nod. I order only one pizza, half cheese and half meat lovers, since its only us three. I call Garrett and ask him to pick up the pizza, he gladly says yes.

When we get home, I run upstairs and clean up my room. Putting Jake's stuff in his room, shutting his door, and finally putting my coat rack in front of his door again. I manage to do that in 5 minutes and just as I finish, there's a knock at the door.

I walk downstairs and see Jake letting Garrett in.

"Hey." Garrett says.

"Hey. Thanks for getting the pizza." I say, smiling.

"Yeah. No problem." Garrett replies. We open the pizza box and stuff our faces for like 5 minutes.

"Let's do something." Garrett says suddenly.

"Like what?" Jake asks.

"Let's play a game." Garrett says, smiling.

"Ooh. How about truth or dare?" I say all excited. The guys just stare at me.

"C'mon. It'll be fun." I whine.

"Fine." Jake says, giving in. Garrett sighs and they both follow me into the living room.

"I'll go first." I say. They roll their eyes, clearly thinking that this is some lame, boring, game.

"Truth or dare, Garrett?" I ask.

"Dare." He replies confidently.

"I dare you to scroll through your contacts, eyes closed, then ask the person you land on out. Boy or girl." I say, smirking.

"Fine." He says. Jake and I watch as he scrolls through his contacts, eyes closed, and then stops and opens his eyes.

"Oh my god." He says, blushing. Then he turns his phone so that we can see it. It lands on Cassidy. I start laughing my face off.

Jake does too. Then we watch as Garrett asks her out on a date......he ends up asking her to Pizza Hut. He scowls at me.

Then he says, "Jake, truth or dare?"

"Truth." Jake replies.

"Okay. Who was your first real kiss?" He asks, serious for once.

"Marie." He replies. Right. She's a cheerleader who Jake dated for a while before she ended things. I actually wouldn't mind being friends with her, she's not too bad.

"Tay. Truth or dare?" Jake asks me.

"Dare." I reply, grinning.

"I dare you to scroll through Garrett's contacts and call the person you land on. Then scream 'the aliens are coming' and hang up." He says.

"Okay." I reply. Garrett hands me his phone. I shut my eyes and scroll. I land on Coach Wilson. They look at the name, then at me. I grin deviously, then hit dial.

"Hello?" Coach says.

"The aliens are coming!!!!! I repeat THE ALIENS ARE COMING!!!!" I scream, then I hang up and burst out laughing.
