The Love Game

Chapter 2: Taylor

"Umm she blushed when I called her beautiful, we had a serious conversation in her room, and she's been flirting with me." I said. Andrew, Chris, Dillon and I were all in my room splitting the money depending on if Vivianna showed any affection towards us.

"What the hell blushing and flirting don't count. It has to be serious, plus she has more interest in me already, she put her hand on my shoulder." Dillon said.

"Oh wow she put her hand on your shoulder great." I said. "I believe flirting counts, and yes she was flirting with me." The memory of her calling me nosy rosy flashed back in my head.

"How would we know you aren't lying." Dillon said.

"Dude, I wouldn't lie I swear." I said.

"Actually I heard you and Vivianna flirting in the hallway earlier." said Chris.

"See." I nodded at Chris.

"Fine, we each give you twenty dollars." Dillon said handing me a twenty dollar bill. Chris did the same, I held out my hand towards Andrew.

"No, I'm not playing. Vivianna is one of my best friends and I won't play this game over her. I'm not going to flirt with her and I can't stand to hurt her."

"You don't have to participate, but you do have to pay up." I said.

"No."

"Okay Andrew's out whatever. Anyway if you get twenty dollars I deserve it too she flirted with me when we went skiing this afternoon." Dillon said.

"That wasn't flirting." Chris laughed.

"Looks like I won for today." I scooped up the fourty dollars and stuck it in my pocket. Chris and Andrew left the room but Dillon stayed.

"You better calm your shit with Vivianna." Dillon glared at me before slamming the door behind him.

Vivianna was a beautiful young girl, she really was gorgeous. I loved how her golden blonde hair went every which way in the wind and how she was so beautiful even though she only wore foundation and a bit of mascara. Her perfectly tanned skin-- I stopped myself before I continued. We haven't been playing The Love Game that long but for every girl we played it with I have never developed personal thoughts or feelings of attraction towards her. Every time I tried to convince myself that I was only turned on I realized I wasn't turned on just like any other guy, I had feelings for this girl. I didn't know what to do, I had only met her, we barely know anything about each other. I feel like I have met Vivianna before though, I'm so comfortable around her, her voice is so soothing. I liked her...... I really liked her. My thoughts were scurrying everywhere, my brain was trying to tell me that it wasn't true, that I didn't like her but my heart was telling me a different story.

I knocked on Andrew's door with a shaky fist. "What?" He asked. There wasn't much sleep in his eyes, I hoped I didn't wake him though.

"Can we talk?"

"What are we eating?" Chris said rubbing his eyes the next morning.

"Waffles!" Vivianna smiled while clapping her hands. She looked like a small child but it was cute.

"Yum." Chris and Dillon dug in their too full plates of waffles.

"I'm so tired." Juliet came down stairs still half asleep.

"Why, did you sleep okay?" Vivianna asked.

"No actually. I slept on the floor cause Elyse insists she couldn't share a bed with anyone."

"I can't though, you would've slept worse in the bed with me." Elyse said.

"'You two share a bed?" Dillon asked.
