Nick picked truth, "Nice" she said, "ok Nick, answer me truthfully, why don't you have a girlfriend?", "ooooh, damn!" Nick said, looking stressed, "I'm not really sure, maybe cause no girl is interested in me?", Tessa burst out laughing, "no dummy, you just haven't put in any effort to get a girlfriend, your quite attractive", she smiled as she told Nick. "Thanks for the compliment, so, Truth or Dare?", "Truth" Tessa replied, "so Who's your new boyfriend?", Nick asked, "nobody!, ever since I broke up with Johnny, I haven't had a boyfriend". She answered, "you know what, I'm bored of this game already, can I ask you something Nick?", "Yeah, sure," Nick replied her, "ok, so tell me, why we're you looking at me that way today, at school?", Nick was dumb, "oh, I forgot I was staring at you, I kinda noticed how attractive you are, I'm sorry for that", Nick said remorseful, "oh no no!, Don't be sorry, I was just curious", she said, "so Nick, I have a confession too, I find you attractive too" she said, "really?", Nick asked, "yes, why do you think i came to you first after me and Johnny broke up?" She asked. Nick had never given it a thought until now, "I like you" she told Nick, "but I understand that you don't feel the same way", she said, looking away, "no!" Nick said, moving over to face her, "it's just that we've been friends since we were kids, and I was scared, I'd ruin our friendship if I asked you out" he said, "oh", she wasn't sure what to say, then Nick moved closer to her and kissed her lip, but he quickly removed his lips from hers and apologized, she was blushing now, she moved her hands over Nick's shoulder and kissed him, they continued kissing till they both fell on the bed.
Nick's phone rang, it was his grandmother, "Hey grandma"he answered, "Nick, why are you not back home" she asked, "I'm over at Tessa's place, I was helping her with something, but I'm coming now" he told her, "well better be quick, so you can eat, ok", "ok grandma, bye" Nick said, then hung up, "Tess i gotta go", "ok Nick, let me walk you out", they both climbed down, Nick walked out the door, while Tessa was still standing on the door, "Nick you forgot something" she said, Nick ran back, "what?", He asked, she held his hand and kissed him passionately, "nothing, I just wanted to kiss you again" she said, "fair enough" Nick said, "see you tomorrow Tess", "you too Nick". Then he walked home.
There was a taxi passing by, "hey!, Taxi", He called out, the cab stopped, then Nick got in, "Where are you headed? The cab asked, "I'll show you, just drive" Nick said smiling, "what a day" he thought. He was not going to forget how eventful the way was in a haste, he was tired, "its been a long day, can't wait to get home", He thought.
