The Dare

"Miss Erickson, please come to the stage" I made my way to the stage to give my valedictorian speech to the whole school. I was nervous. Shaking. Thinking what if I messed up. What if I fell down. What if... And that's when I saw him. And just like that my heart warmed up and my fears vanished. Looking at him I am thrown back into my past when it all started as a dare... _____________________________________ Rachel Erickson was the type of girl every parent dreams of having as a daughter. She was smart, sweet, well-mannered and obeyed every single whim and desire of her elders. But as senior year approached, Rae was getting sick of being a puppet. Luke DeMask was the guy every girl AND even some guys drooled over. He was the typical badass, rich and almost a real life Adonis. He broke rules, got himself in trouble most of the times and did not have a single care in the world. So how are these two polar opposites related ? Well, fate loves to play tricks on us as we all know. So it played a major one by making these two neighbors. With Rae wanting to experience the thrill of life outside her shy boundary, her friends make her play Truth Or Dare. Ironically, Luke is part of the equation. That definitely equals to a lot of twists, bumps, screaming matches, breakdowns and maybe a sprinkle of love. How, you ask ? Read this story to find out what happens to these two people who seem to never get along.
