"never have I ever had sex" max asked, as her, alex and richie were on the balcony at 11pm. the orange sunlight rays were giving the golden hour on all of their faces. richie had his legs up on the railing while holding a cigarette on the other hand and the other was holding up three fingers.

alex was sitting next to richie, legs crossed and holding up four fingers. max instead was diagonally from alex and richie, resting her other hand on the railing, holding a cigarette and the other hand holding up four fingers also.

richie grinned and put his ring finger down. alex gasped and hit richie's shoulder. "really? oh my god, tozier!"

"what can I say...ladies love me" richie spread his arms out humbly.

"we're not moving forwards before you tell us how'd you lose it" alex said. max chuckled lightly. "I know that already"

"well tell me" alex smiled and looked at richie.

"it was with a girl...about a year ago. at a party, but here's the plotwist...it was with my ex-girlfriend"

alex's jaw dropped even more. "holy damn, richie. you really are a player"

richie took a drag from his cigarette and looked at max. "but that's not fair. because you knew I've had sex"

"well yeah, exactly. i'm trying to make you lose" max smirked at richie, who rolled his eyes playfully.

"alright...I see what's happening...never have I ever had a crush on black haired boys" richie smirked at max, who squinted her eyes.

richie really didn't pay attention to alex putting one of his fingers down, since he was focused on max's. "well? don't start lying now"

max bit her lip and clutched her hands. she slowly put her pinky down and shot richie the nastiest glare of all time.

"that's the spirit" richie smiled in victory and leaned even more back in his chair. "this game is about honesty, max. and since I told my losing-my-v-card story, I think you should inform us about this raven haired boy"

"oh shut it, richie. we both know damn well who I'm talking about" max scrunched her nose.

"but alex doesn't know" richie put a hand on alex's shoulder, who smiled at max. "yes, please do tell me about this boy. what is he like?"

max rolled her eyes hard. "i can't believe i'm actually telling you this....he has black hair, brown eyes...he has freckles...he always wears wither sweaters or hoodies and he's...he's annoyed like 24/7 and really caring about our friends...protective. and sometime's he's so irritated, it's actually kinda cute"

max didn't realize a small smile had formed onto her lips.

"he sounds lovely" alex leaned on his other hand and gave a quirky smile to max, who's smile dropped and took a long inhale from the cigarette.

"yeah yeah sure. let's just continue alright?" max scoffed. richie and alex glanced at each other, smiling a little.

"alright. never have I ever....got a boner from my friends" alex grinned.
