Nerris raised her hand "Ooh! I'll go first!" She squealed making a small 'th' noise on her 's'.

She said a small "Ahem" before pointing to Tabii-"Tabii, truth or dare?" The blond pondered for a split second before speaking "Like totally truth!"

Nerris held her breath before exhaling "Is it true you have a glass eye-?" Tabbi gasped, obviously offended.

"What the fuck?! Of course I don't have a glass fucking eye! My eye got poked with a fork not pulled out! Who the fuck started that rumor?!" She yelled hands balled up into fists as Nurf slowly raised his hand.

"I-I did-" Before he could even start his apology Tabii glared at him "Outside-now" She mustered out through gritted teeth.

Nerf nodded before racing out the room earning the whole circle to laugh,
Tabii smirked and followed him out before yelling "Nicki can have my turn!"

Nicki fist bumped the sky before pointing to Spacekid, "Spaceman-!" "I go by Junior now-" "Shut up-truth or dare?" She asked "Truth?" He asked in a question tone.

"Have you lost your virginity?" the freshman blushed looking at Dolph.

"Um-" He started before the whole group erupted in "ooo"s before Dolph coughed aloud "ALRIGHT, Max-"

Max held up his hand to stop him "Wait-no it's Spacekids' turn!" He snarled as Dolph chuckled "Sweetie, I'm his boyfriend-what's his is mine and vise versa. So his turn in basically mine."

The German American smirked, much to Max's annoyance. "Alright Hitler, you have a point just wipe that smirk off your mouth and hurry up..."

Dolph smirked even wider stating "Truth or dare?" Max chuckled dryly "Dare".

Dolph cracked his knuckles "I dare you to...ask out Preston-" Max's chest tightened when heard the words. Hell no was the only thing Max could think.

He opened his mouth to object but Erin spoke up "I bet he won't, he's to scared" She snickered to Sasha. Sasha shrugged  "He'll do it! Won't you Max?" The red head said cocking her head.

Max nodded feeling a blush crawl onto his neck "Yeah..totally it's just a stupid dare..." He trailed off, Erin crossed her arms; flipping her pastel blue hair.

"Do it then, we'll all watch to make sure you do it...or Nicki, Tabbi, Sasha, and I spill about your 'little secret'..." She said smirking.

Max turned to Nicki and glared as Nicki mouthed 'sorry'. "Fine-I'll ask him right now follow me!" He said storming out the room waiting for everyone outside the door, the three girls walked out and the group inside continued playing.

Nicki cleared her throat "Okay Max lead the way!" She exclaimed not bothering to hide her amused smile.

Max started walking down the hall and into the kitchen to find Preston.

Preston was in the back sitting with Neil and Harrison talking about crushes, it was obvious that Neil and Harrison were absolutely gay for each other.

"-So Preston who do you like?" Neil asked and Preston's heart stopped for a second, "Someone I can't have....he's straight." Preston frowned.

Preston had a crush on Max, yes the kid he seemingly hated-it all started at camp, where Preston read the magazine 'girl code' (which he stole from Erid) and read about how if someone is picking on you it means they like you.

And Preston figured that since Max was always picking on him he must like him, this went on for a few weeks and 'girl code' said all the signs Max was giving him must mean he's head over heels for him.

He was wrong.

One day Preston wrote an anonymous letter to Max telling him exactly how he felt, and later that night he snuck into Max's tent and placed it inside of Max's jacket pocket.

Later that day in the mess hall he eavesdropped on Max's conversation, "Oh! And someone gave me this letter, it's like a love letter or something..."

Nikki squeaked and snatched it out of his hands "Eek! Who's it from?!" She practically screamed, Max shrugged in return "Doesn't say".

Neil raised a brow "Strange..."

Nicki started saying random names and they finally reached Preston's name; "What about Preston?" Nicki asked. Preston felt blush settle on his pale cheeks, but that soon disappeared as Max barked out a laugh, "I'm not gay Nicki, and even if I was I would never date his annoying ass!"

And from that day on Prestons heart snapped, and yet, he still loved that boy with his whole heart.

Prestons thoughts were interrupted by Neil, "Oh I'm sorry...who is it?" Preston sighed "..Max.." Neil's eyes widened.

Before whispering "Here he comes". It took Preston way to long to understand what he meant.

He turned around to see Max walking up to the three of them, two of the flower scouts plus Nicki standing; viewing the seen with small smirks on their full lips.

Max finally approached them clearing his throat looking directly at Preston, Preston smirked "Oh? What's this?" He asked leaning back in his chair.

Max huffed out a breath of air, "Um...hey...um..-" "-Cat caught your tongue?" Preston asked sarcasm dripping from his tone.

Max furrowed his brows not knowing how to approach this, it's all for Sasha to think your badass Max.

He repeated that phrase over and over in his head opening his mouth, "So-um, I was wondering if you wanted to-Jesus-um- like go out with me?"

Preston's whole heart stopped for a minute, he discreetly pinched himself to reveal;

This wasn't a dream.

And he smiled widely before squealing internally. Max on the other end was dreading the anticipation please say no please say no please say no-

"Yes!" Preston squeaked getting up from his seat engulfing Max into a tight hug.

Fuck was the only thing Max could think.
