"Let's play truth or dare" Tahani said and clapped into her hands.
Kaycee hated truth or dare. She liked listening to others playing it but playing along herself – no, thank you. To her misfortune, the rest of the people were very enthusiastic to make a fool of themselves.
"Alright, I'll start. Bailey, truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"Let's take something easy. What is the longest you have gone without sleep?" Tahani asked.
Bailey frowned and thought about it a moment. "Uhm... I think two days. Not that much but I felt like dying"
Everyone laughed. Going without sleep is tough. Really tough. Everyone knew that.
"Josh, truth or dare?" Bailey asked then.
The boys looked at Josh. They would probably make fun of him if he took truth.
"Dare"
Kaycee rolled her eyes. Boys were so easy to see-through.
"Let someone take a picture of you in a weird pose"
Julian laughed. "Literally every picture of Josh is weird, he doesn't even need to try" He got hid by Josh.
After the photo was taken – it really was a weird pose and the boys didn't wait to post it on their social media – Josh looked around... and smirked at Kaycee.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
"Kaycee, truth or dare?"
Kaycee closed her eyes. "Dare, I guess"
"Wow, that girl is brave!" Julian laughed and high fived Gabe. "You have to know; Josh always chooses the sickest dares"
God damn it. What did she do.
"Take it easy on her, Josh" Sean next to her said calmly. Kaycee shot him a thankful look and Sean just smiled sympathetically.
"Don't worry" Josh's grin definitely gave Kaycee something to worry about. "No, I'm not mean. But I think I have something good." His grin got even worse. Kaycee swallowed and shifted uncomfortable. "Dance a choreography with someone we choose"
Kaycee looked up. That wasn't as bad as she thought. "Alright," she said and stood up. "Then who is it"
The others looked at each other for a second, then they looked at Sean. He just shrugged. "No problem" he said and stood up to. "What shall we dance?"
"You both attended the 'telephone'-class, didn't you?" Tati asked.
Both nodded.
"Then dance that"
Kaycee shrugged. "Okay" she said, "do you have music?"
They rocked it, no doubt. Even though the ground wasn't made for such a dance routine, both didn't seem to have a problem with it. After their short dance number, they high fived each other and sat down on the trunk again. The rest was still shocked.
"Are you okay guys?" Sean asked because nobody seemed to say anything.
"That was..." Gabe searched for words, didn't seem to find them.
"Unbelievable." Julian completed his sentence.
"Thanks, I guess" Kaycee said. "I have to ask now, right?"
"Yes, choose one" Tahani said.
"Julian, truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"What a wimp" Gabe laughed and slapped Julian on his back.
"Shut up," he said and looked at Kaycee. "So? Ask me anything"
"The craziest thing you've ever done?"

They kept playing for a while, Gabe mixed a drink for Bailey, Tati asked a completely stranger about his cat, Sean called his sister trying to convinced her he got a girl pregnant. It was really funny. After some time, the boys decided to hit the dance floor while the girls stayed where they are. Even though Kaycee would like to go inside because it was way warmer, she didn't want to be in that crowd of people. She loved dancing but most of these guys were drunk anyway.
"I'd like to know what kind of an offer Sean got," Tati said after a while. "He always gets that interesting stuff. I mean, his work is amazing"
Kaycee looked up. "What kind of work?" she asked.
"Sean is an amazing choreographer," Bailey crossed her arms. "and he got some really cool offers already, like teaching a whole class and all this kind of stuff"
"If he's not allowed to talk about it, then it's probably something big," Tahani said.
"Probably" Tati nodded. "But why is he unsure of it?"
Tahani shrugged. "Who knows. He won't tell us, that's for sure"
Bailey smirked devilish. "So how do we find out?"
Kaycee shook her head. "You don't" she said. "If he doesn't want to talk about it, then don't pressure him into it"
"You have to pressure Sean into talking" Tati said laughing. "He doesn't really do it on his own. At least not over the important stuff. Maybe you can talk to him"
"How long do I know him? Three days?"
"A relationship isn't based on the length of time you spent together; it's based on the foundation you built together" Bailey quoted.
Kaycee rolled her eyes. "Shut up. We didn't really talk to each other, there isn't any foundation"
"But you protect each other" Tahani raised her eyebrows. "Like a cute couple"
Kaycee frowned. "We do what?" she asked.
"Take it easy on her, Josh" Bailey quoted Sean.
"If he doesn't want to talk about it, then don't pressure him into it" Tati repeated Kaycee's word from a few minutes before.
"You know what? You guys are annoying" Kaycee said and shook her head. "Unbelievable"
The boys came back a few minutes later.
"I am deaf" Josh said and motioned towards his ears. "It's so fucking loud in there"
"That's why we stayed outside" Bailey responded.
Josh rolled his eyes. "Shut up," he said.
"Never"
Kaycee smiled and embraced herself. If she thought it was cold in the beginning, boy, she was so wrong.
"Are you cold?"
Kaycee looked up to see Sean looking at her. She shrugged. "A bit," she said but that was a lie. It was fucking freezing. She would probably turn into an ice block any moment.
"Here, take that." He took off his hoody and offered it to her.
"No no, keep it." She would really love to have that hoody. It was really cold. But she didn't want to take his clothes. In the end, he would be the one freezing.
"No, you are freezing. Just take it" Sean smirked a bit and put the hoody on her lap, ignoring her protest. "I don't want you to catch a cold and I'm warm anyway"
Kaycee sighed and took the hoody. "Thanks, I guess"
He shook his head laughing quietly. "No problem Kayc," he said.
Kaycee put the black hoody on and it got warmer instantly. And it smelled good. Like, really good. She just ignored the looks the rest of the girls shot her.
