We all laughed when we saw Charlie sneaking up behind some guy on the football field and pull his shorts down a bit. Charlie snickered and ran back to us, sitting down quicly as the boy tried to put his shorts back on. Poor guy looked embarrassed and he was blushing as his team laughed at him.

"I can't believe you did that Charlie" Mariah whispered so the boys didn't hear us.

"Hey! You dared me!" Charlie shouted and we laughed again.

It was Monday morning and we were sitting on the grass, in the shade, under the big tree near the football field which the boys so happened to be practicing for the game in two weeks, the coach likes to be prepared for these games, come up with strategies to crush the other team. We weren't perving or anything, we were just playing a game of truth or dare which is starting to get hilarious.

"Ok, it's your turn Niomi" Charlie said, pointing at Niomi with a smirk on her face. Niomi's eyes widen as she scooted back a bit.

"Stop being scared Niomi" I said, pushing her forward into the circle again.

"Says you! You got a easy dare!" Niomi shouted.

"Dude, I don't think throwing a damn rock at one of the jocks was good, did you see the death glare the guy was giving me like he wanted me dead in my grave right now" I said, shivering at the memory as the others laughed and I glared at them.

"Oh yeah!" Niomi shouted.

"Whatever, just go ahead with the dare would ya?" I mumbled, crossing my arms across my chest.

"Fine grumpy pants" Charlie giggled and I rolled my eyes. "Ok, I dare you to......" Charlie trailed off, looking around. "Run into the middle of the football field, screaming like an idiot then come back" Charlie said Niomi frowned.

"Well fuck you Charlie!" Niomi shouted, throwing a leaf at her and Charlie laughed.

Niomi stood up and dusted herself off before clearing her throat. Niomi started screaming as she waved her arms in the air and running into the middle of the football field. The boys stopped what they were doing and looked at Niomi like she was crazy, which she actually looked crazy. Niomi quickly ran back and fell onto the grass.

"That was so much exercise" Niomi breathed out, panting. I poked her stomach and Niomi laughed as held her stomach.

"Don't do that!" Niomi whined.

"It's funny" I simply said.

"What are you guys doing?" I heard a familiar voice from behind me and I froze.

"Hello?" I saw a hand in front of my face and I snapped back to reality. I looked up to see Gavin in his football uniform since he plays for our schools team.

"Uh hey" I said, waving my hand.

"Aw! She's shy!" Niomi gushed. I turned my head to her and narrowed my eyes.

"You shut up" I said, pointing at Niomi and she stuck her tongue out at me.

"You seem out of it this morning" Gavin said.

"I'm not" I said, shaking my head.

"Then why did you space out?" Gavin asked and I shrugged. "You are strange" Gavin said, shaking his head and I grinned.

"Thank you kind sir" I said, bowing and my friends all laughed even though I didn't mean it as a joke. Gavin smiled and rolled his eyes.

"Hey, are you still coming over today?" Gavin asked.

"Yup, I'll be there at four ok?" I said. Gavin nodded and smiled.

"Thanks, bye!" Gavin shouted over his shouldder as he ran back onto the field. My friends were all staring at me with smirks on their faces and I groaned out loud.
