Start out with a kiss

"Never have I ever figured out how to quit the game."

This makes the students and their chaperone even more agitated.

"Well that's cute. You're the kind to wish for more wishes, aren't you?"

"Ethan! Don't be a dick, she was trying to help." Typical Isabella, always too brash.

"By taunting the evil game?"

"Don't talk about it like it's a person."

"Students." Miss Shelby speaks with a firm voice. "You must all be more temperate. We do not know what power guides this horrible curse. A demonic presence may be among us."

The group falls silent, but not calm. They search each other's faces for an answer that does not come. Alyssa looks at Ethan too often for your liking, but the club as a whole is being drawn once again to Alyssa.

"I can't stop. I try but I can't. The longer I wait, the more ideas come to me." Her voice gets faster and increases in pitch as she speaks.

Miss Shelby holds her palms open in front of her, defensively. "Calm, Alyssa. Breathe. What kind of ideas? Do you hear voices?"

"I--argh, no, I don't hear voices! My ideas are getting darker but that's just how overthinking works! I'm not--." She stops abruptly before continuing slowly and quietly, "I am not taking ideas from some demon."

You aren't convinced. Your frustration mounts, Alyssa needs to act.

"Never have I ever kissed a Korean girl!"

Ethan moves first, but everyone comes over to kiss her. Each student kisses Alyssa sincerely on the mouth, and then Miss Shelby does the same.

It feels nice until you sit back down.

Your anger returns, stronger. That didn't help a darn bit!

Everyone else is thinking it too. The entire club glares at Alyssa.

"I'M TRYING!" Tears form in her eyes, but you barely feel sympathy.

"Alyssa, calm down and name something that most of us have done." Miss Shelby keeps her voice level, but her eyes show irritation.
