You looked around the room and a grin plastered itself on your face because you finally made it. Just earlier today, you were volunteering at The Mile High handing out bibs, refilling water bottles, and basically doing any bitch work that the event needed. You never complained though because you got to interact with all the boarders, who you looked up to for a long time, and you even struck up a conversation with Sven, and that is how you ended up here, at Scotty’s house for an after party/hang out/movie night, whatever it was supposed to be. The music was blasting, empty beer bottles scattered everywhere, and everyone was having a good time. The guy to girl ratio was awkwardly high, and although you knew that you were just average looking, you couldn’t help but notice the boarders stealing glances at you. As the night winded down and people were getting bored, Ståle drunkenly suggested that you guys should play truth or dare.
"You first, truth or dare Sandbech?" Sven slurred.
"Dare" Ståle grinned.
"I dare you to kiss the hottest girl in the room" Sven said knowing that he put Ståle in the spotlight. Ståle hesitated and scanned the room, and looked like he had his eyes set on you. *Fuck, no no no no, please not me* you said to yourself, not wanting to be the topic of conversation for the next few days. Your best friend Sebastien was certain that Ståle had a thing for you, and he would not let the topic go, ever. You understood that Ståle was really attractive, but he was just not your type, something about him just got on your nerves, maybe it was the fact that he wasn’t the type of guy who would settle down and date. But to your dismay, Ståle walked straight up to you, lifted your chin, and kissed on the lips, he was really into it and the whole time you were just not feeling it. The room exploded in cheers, and Ståle walked back victoriously to his friends, getting high fives all around. You just shuffled to Seb’s side and he put his arms around your shoulders, trying to comfort you because he realized how uncomfortable and embarrassing that was for you.
"Told ya he fancied you" Seb smiled.
"Yeah yeah yeah, great. Tell me something I don’t know" you said annoyed.
"Hey y/n you know I’m just messing with you." Seb looked at you with puppy eyes. "You’re too good for those vikings"
"Find me a nice Canadian guy, and I’ll love you forever" you joked.
"Max is single" Seb joked pointing across the room.
"Oh my god, you know he’s dating his ego" you said shoving Seb playfully. This whole time you could see Scotty watching from the other side of the room, and when your eyes met, he quickly turned and started talking to the guys beside him. You’ve always had the biggest crush on Scotty, but he seemed way too out of your league, and you had never found the opportunity to talk to him. "What’s Jame’s deal?" You asked Seb.
"Not sure, those Australians though… never know what they’re up to. But now that you bring him up, I should add that he looked almost as uncomfortable as you when Ståle kissed you. Maybe he likes you?" Seb shrugged.
"Really?" you said unnecessarily eagerly.
"Not sure, but you seem like you do. Why don’t you go talk to him?" Seb replied.
"No I can’t just do that. What do I even say?" You said.
"Y/N stop playing dumb, here… how about this, meet me out back where it’s quieter and I’ll teach you, I need to take a piss" Seb said kind of urgently. "Promise me you won’t just leave… oh wait… I’m your ride" he smirked. Your relationship with Seb was complicated, you guys grew up together, became best friends, dated on and off, then were friends with benefits, now you guys were just friends, at least that was what you thought it was, but half the time it feels like he’s still hitting on you.
————————————-in Scotty’s backyard——————
You sat on the patio for what seemed like forever finishing your bottle of beer, then finally you heard steps coming from behind you.
"Finally what took you so long Seb, what’s this grand scheme of yours?" you blurted, relieved. But it wasn’t Sebastien who greeted you but Scotty. "Oh hey, sorry I thought you were someone else"
"Ok this sounds crazy but Seb told me that you told he that you much rather that Sven dared me instead of Ståle?" Scotty said nervously.
"He did eh? I mean I didn’t say that" You started saying.
"That’s what I thought" Scotty said, a note of disappointment in his voice, and turned to leave.
"Wait, I mean… I’m not sure if this helps, but, um…. I wish that was what happened" You stuttered. "I mean that I’d much prefer you over Ståle any day."
"Hey Y/N, lemme show ya something" Scotty takes your hand and pulls you to your feet, and leads you to the end of his back yard to a tree house that you did not realize was there. It’s pitch black, but you two managed to get up.
"Best spot in the house! Used to hang out here with my mates all the time" He smiled. You felt like the luckiest girl in the world, and you were not sure if it was the alcohol, or just hormones or just the massive sexual tension between you two, but before you knew it you just pounced on Scotty, not wanting to waste any time. To your surprise he was all for it, and a wave of euphoria rushed through both of you. He threw off his shirt and was all over you.
"Truth or dare Y/N?" He said as he gasped for breath.
"Dare"
