My Guitar Buddy (A One Direction & Emblem3 Fan Fiction)

Chapter 5

"Strip?" I spluttered.

"Yeah," Louis said, grinning.

"Lou, did you inject alcohol into your carrots?" Liam asked, exasperated. "We can't play that with people we just met!"

Niall coughed.

"Or people who've just met their former friends," Liam finished.

To be honest, I did kind of want to play.

I could see Ashlyn did as well.

"Aw, LiLi, don't be such a Daddy Direcitoner," she whined. "It'll be fun."

"Yeah, you'll be thinking that until you're down to just your panties in front of everyone," I said sarcastically.

"Shut up, Sky, I can see you want to play too," Ashlyn retorted.

Damn this girl knows me too well.

"Please play," Louis begged. 

"You like Ash?" I asked.

Louis nodded.

"What about Eleanor?" I asked him.

Louis flapped his hand. "I'll deal with it later."

We all stared at him. 

Ashlyn pulled herself off his lap and plopped down onto Liam's lap.

"Hey!" Louis said.

"Nuh-uh," Ashlyn said, shaking her head. "I'm not going to be the girl you cheat on your girlfriend with."

"Good," I said. "I've had enough of that."

Ashlyn blushed. "I've learned my lesson."

"Please explain," Harry said dryly.

"When we were 17, this guy asked me out," Ashlyn explained. "I had no idea he was dating someone else at the time, so I said yes. When his girlfriend found out, she slapped me and then got expelled."

Everyone winced.

"For hitting someone else?" Zayn asked.

Ashlyn and I both shrugged.

"Enough of this," Louis said, although he looked slightly disappointed Ashlyn wasn't on his lap. "Let's start."

I sighed. "Can we go?" I whined to Ashlyn.

"Are you nuts?" Ashlyn grinned. "The fun's just getting started."

I groaned.

"C'mon, Sky, it'll be fun," Niall coaxed.

I made a face. "Stop trying to pressure me, Leppy."

"Do it!" Everyone cheered, even Daddy Direction.

"Fine," I groaned.

We all sat in a circle.

"Me first," Ashlyn said. "Harry, truth or dare?"

"Dare!" Harry said, clapping.

"I dare you..." Ashlyn trailed off. Then she grinned evilly. At me.

Uh-oh. 

"To go up to Skylar over there and confess your love for her!"

Ah, shit.

"Done," Harry said, getting up and sitting on my lap, batting his eyelashes at me. "Skylar, I love you so much."

"Likewise," I said, smiling. It was impossible to not smile at those gorgeous eyes.

I could see Niall bite his lip and look away.

Is Niall jealous?

I shook that thought out of my head as Harry crawled off of my lap and back to his spot. "Lou, truth or dare."

"TRUTH!" Louis squealed like a little girl.

"Lame-o," Zayn said.

Louis shrugged.

"Rate Ashlyn on a scale of 1-10."

"10," Louis said without hesitation.

Flushing furiously, Ashlyn hid a smile.

"Zayn, truth or dare?" Louis asked.

"Dare, duh," he said.

"I dare you to call Perrie and try to seduce her over the phone," Louis sang.

"Oh, you've been holding onto that dare all night," Zayn said sarcastically. "I'm not doing it," he said, and pulled off his shirt.

I couldn't help but stare; neither could Ashlyn. Holy shit were these boys fit. Six-packs and all!

And talk about all that muscle.

I forced myself to look away. Ashlyn couldn't tear her eyes from his perfectly sculpted body.

"Like what you see?" Zayn said, teasing her.

"Uh," Ashlyn said, crawling behind Liam.

"Liam, truth or dare?" Zayn asked.

"Truth," Liam said. 

"What else is new?" Louis sighed dramatically.

"Kiss Niall," Zayn said.

Niall's face was a mask of horror. 

Liam crawled up to Niall and kissed his cheek.

"That doesn't count," Zayn pointed out.

"Oh yeah?" Liam asked. "You didn't tell me where."

Liam had a point.

"All right," Liam said. "Ashlyn, truth or dare?"

"Truth," she said confidently.

"Who do you think has the best body?" Liam asked. "After she answers, the person in question has to take their shirt off."

Everyone groaned.

Ashlyn grinned at me. "Can I say Sky?"

"No!" I protested.

"I meant a guy," Liam deadpanned.

"Oh." Ashlyn glanced around. "You."

Liam sighed and pulled his shirt off.

And just like with Zayn, neither of us could keep our eyes off his chest.

"Wanna be my cuddle buddy?" Liam asked both of us.

"You moping after breaking up with Dani?" Louis asked, tensing.

"I'll be your cuddle buddy," Ashlyn squealed, climbing into his lap.

"Aww," I cooed.

Niall hasn't said a word through this whole exchange.

"So," Ashlyn said. "Niall."

"Dare," Niall muttered.

"I dare you to kiss your bestie," Ashlyn declared.

My mouth dropped open.

Niall hesitated. "I won't do it if you're not comfortable."

I bit my lip. "Go ahead."

Niall slipped his arms around my waist.

And when he smashed his lips to mine, sparks flew.

Ooh, sparks fly!!! What happens next? <3, xldancelx23
