Hopeless Honey

D.A.R.E

"Who wants another?!" Noah yelled happily.

Three more shots later they decided we were going to play truth or dare. I knew where it would end up, but I agreed to play. Scarlett and Xavier had been making out the whole time. Noah looked at me with an apologetic look and mouthed "sorry" with a slight laugh.

I laughed back and smiled we talked for a little bit and he was being really sweet. I could tell he liked me but was a bit shy.

Scarlett spun the bottle, "OMG I wonder who is gonna land on" she drank a couple of beers along with the guys, but I had stopped after my second.

I watched the bottle spin, it went round and round and round until it landed on me, naturally. "Ummmmm, Honeyyyyy, I dare youuuu to ummmmmm, kiss noah!" She slurred.

"Oh, ha, um I'm not sure, I-" I looked at Noah and he seemed a bit embarrassed. I looked at Xavier and he had a serious look on his face. He was avoiding eye contact with me but he seemed upset. Scarlett was sitting in his lap and he had his arms around her. He finally looked up at me and shrugged his shoulders. I looked over at Noah one more time and pulled him close.

He closed his eyes and I did the same, I leaned in and kissed him passionately. He was a bit taken aback but started feeling it after a few seconds. He pulled me into his lap and I straddled him. He groaned into my mouth and I felt him harden under me. My eyes widened and I stopped the kiss slowly getting off him. I didn't want to embarrass him so I didn't make it obvious, but we both knew what had happened.

"Wow you guys, that was really something." Scarlett continued. I awkwardly laughed.

"Yeah, it was"

"Okay, it's my turn to spin the bottle Xavier announced.

I looked at him nervously and he had a look in his eyes that I didn't recognize.

I felt déjà vu when I watched the bottle spin and spin and spin. My nervousness was settled when I watched it stop on Scarlett.

"Scarlett, I dare you to take your shirt off"

We continued like this for a little, but after a while, Scarlett and Xavier ended up making out on the couch again. I know me and him weren't anything to each other, but it was weird to watch.

Noah would give me awkward glances every once in a while. We sat on the other couch and he pulled me close. I wasn't really in the mood, but he started kissing my neck and he put his hand on my waist, holding me close. I felt a familiar glare on me once again. I looked up and saw Xaviers eyes looking back at mine. Scarlett was asleep on the other side of the couch and he was just scrolling on his phone.

"Listen, Noah, I'm getting kind of tired, I think I'm gonna head up." I felt myself sobering up and I got up from the couch and fixed myself a bit.

"I had a good night though." I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek. I let my hand rest on his face for a few seconds after. His face was red and he had a goofy smile on his face when I walked away.

I walked into the kitchen to get a glass water to help in the sobering up process. I turned around to open the cabinet and saw Xavier there.

"Listen, I don't know what you're doing with Noah, but you better stop." He whisper yelled in a harsh tone.

Instead of stopping to his level and letting him see me angry, I just looked at him and smiled.

"I like Noah, he's sweet, he's a good kisser, too" I doted.

Without looking at him again, I walked up the stairs and collapsed on my bed.

My bed was empty tonight and I had no midnight visitors. No one to cuddle up with or to make my bed in the morning. I felt like he was mad at me even though I didn't do anything wrong.

The only thing I could think of now was sleep
