Truth or Dare

“Come on! Everyone to the lounge room,” Derek said as the group finished clearing the table and got a few more drinks.

After debate on what to play, they settled on some simple truth or dare. A basic game that everyone had played at one stage of their life or another. The extremes of the dares and personal truths however varied from individual to individual.

They all sat around the lounge room on couches and beanbags in a decent sized circle. The mood had really lifted, you could say that was partially due to the magic of ****. It seemed to work a charm on them all.

Ed was the last one to join the group in the lounge room, he plonked himself right next to none other than Sarah herself, squeezing in on the fancy couch.

Taking a chug of his drink, he looked around the room, “Well… who wants to start?” he asked.

“I’ll go!” Jess announced straight away, perking up as she re positioned herself in the bean bag she sat on, “Truth or Dare Ed.”

“Truth. Always start with a truth.”

A smirk arose on Jess’s face as she tilted her head, thinking of what she could ask the taken man, “Hmm… Okay I’ve got one for you! Since you really are a ‘ladies man’ as you say, can you really stay loyal to your girlfriend while you’re around all these beautiful women?”

Ed gulped a little, only noticeable if you were paying close attention to him. “Of course I can stay loyal,” he told her as confidently as he could, “I’m no cheat.”

Jess gave him a sort of look as if she didn’t believe a word he was telling her. A look that gave off the vibe that she was willing to test his faith as much as she could this weekend.

It was now Ed’s turn, he looked around the room for who he could ask. Eyeing off David, he pointed out his best friend, “David… Truth or Date.”

“Uhh Truth,” he replied, too nervous to be the first to pick a dare.

“Well… a little birdy may have mentioned to me that you were getting a little close with Abbey outside, did you’s actually hook up?”

A chorous of “Ooooh’s” came from the group as they looked over at David.

It was a little embarrassing for David who didn’t know how to handle nine pairs of eyes on him, waiting for his response. That including Abbey, the one person this was all about. He stuttered at first, trying to work out what to say.

“Ummm uhh…”

Abbey jumped in to save him, “We just kissed, you can all calm down a little.”

He was very much appreciative of the blonde having his back in a personally tense social situation. The attention had quickly switched to Abbey now.

“Okay Abs, whats the go? Bit of foreplay before sharing a room together tonight?” Sarah said, mocking her cheerleading friend.

“Isn’t it one question and move on?” she cut back.

“Alright, Alright, fair call Abbey, let’s keep this game moving guys,” Derek insisted.

The group kept going as they polished down more of the **** in front of them. Everyone was playing it quite safe at first, wanting to stick with truths. Eventually it started to turn when Derek changed the rules so there was no other option than just to say yes.

“Jess, you ready?”

“Yeah babe!” she spoke, taking a decent sip of her vodka mixed drink.

“Okay Jess, Give Wally a kiss over there or take your top off,” he said.

She just shook her head while Wally’s interest quickly perked up. He sat up in his chair, hopeful that Jess would come on over and plant one on his lips. If she didn’t, at least he would get to see the sexy high school slut in her bra.

“So what is it Jess? What do you pick?” Derek asked again.
