Games are supposed to be fun, but what happens when fun turns into danger?

"Cay, will you look at me?" I turned around and lifted my eyes to look into his. His arms were braced on the counter and he was looking at me sideways. The glow of the light coming from the living room and into the kitchen gave his face an otherworldly impression. I waited for him to continue. He closed his eyes and sighed, "Cay...

In the end we would both regret it, and that would hurt the most. © rainthereader 2012 All Rights Reserved
