Kates POV 

Uriah, Tris, Tobias, Al, Will, Christina, Zeke, Lauren and Shauna are all playing which doesn't make me feel anymore comfortable

I sit next to Tris and Tobias takes the seat next to me 

"Lets get started, who wants to go first?" Zeke asks but is met with silence " I will then"

"Truth or dare Uriah" 

"Truth" Uriah answers 

"Is there someone in this group who you like more then a friend?" Zeke asked

"yes" Uriah mumbles, turning slightly red 

"Who?" Zeke asks 

And I have the same question  

"You've  asked your question bro" Uriah tells him "It's my turn"

"Fine" Zeke says holding his hands up in defense but there is a smirk on is face that makes we feel uncomfortable 

"Truth or dare Tobias" Uriah asks 

"Dare" Tobias says quickly

" I dare you to skull whatever you have left in that cup" Uriah tells him and Tobias does it with ease 

"Truth or dare Tris" My brother asks Tris 

"Truth" Tris answers 

"Are you dating Al?" Tobias asks

"No" Tris answers quickly both her an Al turning slightly red and I notice my brother relax a little 

"Truth or dare Chris" Tris asks 

"Dare" Christina answers 

"I dare you to dump your drink on Will's head" Tris grins and so does Chris 

"No...No...No" Will says trying to stand up but he isn't quick enough 

" Truth or dare Kate" Christina asks me

"Dare" I answer trying to cover up my nerves

"I dare you to sit on Uriah's lap for the next 5 rounds" She tells me   

 I stand up hoping they don't realise my legs are shaking 

Since when did Uriah make me so nervous?

Were cool, just friends 

So why is my heart racing?  

I sit down and ignore my brothers glare, he looks like he is going to hit someone 

"Is this ok?" I ask him nervously "I don't want to hurt you" 

"Yeah its fine" he says and wraps his arms around my waist, his touch calms me and makes my skin tingle at  the same time 

"Hands off" My brother growls but I shot him a look and hold his hands in place 

I'm fine 

Uriah isn't going to hurt me 

I can fight my own battles 

Tobias shuts up 

"Truth or dare Shauna" I ask 

"Dare" She challenges 

I have to wrack my brain to think of something 

" I dare you to apologies to Tris for being a bitch" I tell her 

It's lame, I know,  but Tris doesn't deserve to be treated the way they treat her

"I'm not doing that, I'm out" Shauna said and wanders off to rejoin the party 

***  

The five rounds pass to quickly in my opinion and I'm sitting next to Tris once again 

People continue asking questions but everyone is going for the truth option now 

Al and Lauren are out not too long after Shauna and I don't think I'll be to far

"Truth or dare Kate" Will asks me 

"  Truth" I answer 

"Who do you want to kiss most out of the guys that go to our school, excluding your brother of coarse" Will asks 

I sense my brother tense next to me 

I can't answer this question 

Not with my brother next to me and defiantly not when the answer is sitting in this very room
