Mikel was practically over this game by now. He had done all his dares whether he wanted to or not. He felt a bit embarrassed by admitting the truth of last summer, not really on his part but for his parents. He knew they didn’t want that getting out and no everyone in his class knew and who’s the say they won’t tell people once they get back after the camping trip. When Jezebel asked if he wanted to talk part of him wanted to say no and just turn around. What was there to talk about? She made her choice. Not only kissing Jordan once in front of him but now twice. Once on purpose, even though it was Mikels own fault. “Sure.” He said though because he did want to talk to her. The most they had talked since prom was a few texts here and there but nothing in depth. Short replies. “Let’s get away from everyone though?” He asked a bit wondering if she would rather have the conversation more private. He had enough things exposed to everyone here, this wasn’t needed.

@Littlefeets so bad omg I’m so sorry

It was intriguing to see Andy all riled up - though he didn’t believe him when he told the truth but oh well. Daniel really didn’t care what other people thought of him. Never had, never would. Though his smile at Andy’s frustrations left as he begin walking towards the dark forest illuminated by only the moonlight. “Now that you have nothing better to do with your 7 minutes, can you please stop avoiding me?”

The words echoed in his mind as Daniel walked down the familiar route he had mapped out. They were in the woods now - following a path but rather than stopping. Daniel Parker kept walking. "make it a good 7 minutes, Keller, because those are all you’re getting. He stated - still not looking towards her as he continued to walk down the path. He knew he was leading the way and she likely had no idea where he was going - but that didn’t matter to him. He knew where he was going and it was a straight walk to get back to the campsite so she’d be fine. “So? What does the famous Yara Keller want to tell me?” he whispered - though as he said those words, his mind momentarily went back to what she had said about broadway. “What happened? In New York?” Dan asked after a few moments.

It wasn’t long before the dares circled back around to her, receiving one from Yara Keller to list the people she had slept with. She gave a small laugh, what kind of dare was that? It was no secret that Delilah had gotten around quite a bit. Compared to the other one’s being handed out, Delilah’s was a walk in the park. Maybe Yara’s angle was to try and embarrass Delilah or catch her off guard, but, much to the disappointment of others, she took this dare in her stride. The only difficult thing about it was being able to distinguish who she had and hadn’t slept within the senior class.

“Let’s see…” Delilah looked around the circle, mentally making a note of whom she had slept with, before looking back at Yara. “Mikel, Theo, Lyonrad, Dorian, Valerie, Brandon, and Daniel,” She listed nonchalantly, which came to a shock for some. However in previous dares, Delilah had watched several guys revealing who they had slept with in pride, having no one bat an eyelid, why shouldn’t it be the same for her? “So, seven. And counting.” Then she turned her head to Ruby Danvers, daring her to make out with someone on her Oh My Dollar Valentine list, to which she did with Daniel Parker.

What did take her by surprise, however, was Elias Stokes approaching her. Not only was he approaching, but kissing her too. Of course, Delilah showed no obligation to this, kissing him back, running her hands through his hair. Though not as much as she was, Delilah could tell that he was relatively experienced in this - and she even almost gave maximum effort.

As Elias sat in the seat next to her, Delilah leaned back in her own, rolling her eyes and smiling at the confident smile on his face. “It wasn’t so bad,” She replied, ambiguously, then looking back at him. “Dare I say average?”

Jezebel Mallory Sloane

Jezebel was relieved when Mikel agreed to talk to her. She nodded and stood up to walk with him when he suggested going somewhere further away from everyone. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry about everything. I should have told you about who Jordan is to me before.” Jezebel looked down with a sigh then back up at Mikel. “I chose to kiss Jordan, but I still care about you. I know, I’ve been the worst, and I can’t change what I’ve done. I don’t know what you feel anymore, and I’m a complete mess. I barely know what I feel about anything at all right now, but I need you to know that you matter to me. Ask me anything, and I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.” Jezebel didn’t necessarily know how she felt about anything, but she had to be honest with Mikel about all of it.

The dares went on - people doing various things of intrigue. Riker had enjoyed watching, a little drinking, and a little worrying for his friends - but that was usual for Riker. Even if he didn’t show it. So when the question about Elodie went to Kai, the girl now gone from the game, Riker raised his eyebrow in confusion… but also intrigue. Riker hadn’t known that Kai and Elodie had dated, or now, “fake dated” - mostly because he hadn’t seen Kai in a few years. They did still keep in touch, the two visiting each other from time to time, but perhaps Riker just hadn’t paid attention to his social feeds about the beautiful girl Kai was with. Though if she was dating Kai, Riker would have never seen her anything more than an “Aww Kai, you two look happy” type of comment.

So after Kai explained that, Riker left Maddy who was talking to someone who joined the game late and walked over to where Kai was sitting. “So - how has your sleep schedule been?” Riker started off - joking as he, did, indeed play a few guitar solos at 3 am - though quickly getting yelled at by Yara and Jordan to shut up before they kicked him out. But it was mostly as a joke - attempting to lighten up his friend. “Anyways what’s up? When’s the little monster getting in for her birthday?” Riker questioned - mentioning Akielah - who truly, scared the living sh!ts out of him.

Henry stretched, pushing his glasses up his nose. The log he was sitting on wasn’t very comfortable, but he wasn’t complaining. He looked around the campfire at everyone, doing his best to avoid Ruby’s glare. She didn’t like him at all, but he couldn’t blame her, considering he did cheat on her. Yes, he shouldn’t have, he knew it. He may have not been able to take back what he did, but he could make it up to her, or at least he’d try. There was no telling what Ruby would do. She was unpredictable, but that’s what drew him to her. She was also quite broken, which he had to admit he was also. He just hoped she’d let him in again. He sighed, waiting for someone to dare him.

It was difficult to ignore the whispers and the creation of rumours around her as she walked past everyone to leave. Sadie with Dorian? After he had spent the first half of the game kissing multiple different other girls? She avoided looking in the general direction where she knew Emily had been sitting, not wanting to see the look of disgust and horror Sadie knew she would be wearing, as it would instantly make her feel bad. But she didn’t have to look at Emily to feel guilty, especially after Sadie had told her she wouldn’t speak to Dorian anymore. How could she already be going against her word?

A sigh of relief came in the form of a laugh as Dorian joked about him being the worst person to do this with. “No, no, of course not,” Sadie rushed to answer, shaking her head and raising her eyebrows. Despite how hastily she said it had made it sound like she was lying, it was true. In fact, there wasn’t anyone else that came to mind who she would want to do this with. “Really, no,” She added on, slower to sound as genuine as possible.

Only when they were completely away from the campfire and the rest of the seniors did they finally stop walking, standing opposite each other, as they will be for the next 7 minutes, as Dorian stated when they stopped. She looked around, not completely sure of what the done thing was in situations like this. Just talking? Or something else, she wasn’t sure. “So… were you getting a lot of dares back then?” Sadie asked, after a moment of them both wondering what to do, acting as if she hadn’t seen the make-out sessions he had been having around the campfire.

The two of them headed into the woods. It was already late so there was no sun to light their way, and Daniel seemed to keep walking. Although she didn’t drink at all, Yara’s head hurt and in general she wasn’t feeling her best, so she wasn’t really planning on walking much, but Daniel did apparently, so she followed him just in case he went lost or hurt, although he hated her, she didn’t want him to get hurt. It was the last thing she ever wanted, and yet with that she had still hurt him too much already, and there wasn’t really anything she could do to change the past.
As they walked, he said something, which she couldn’t understand since he was whispering, but she did hear her name which caught her attention in time for his next question
”What happened? In New York?”
Yara assumed he was referring to what she was asked earlier about the reason she left New York. ”There was this girl, the lead male’s girlfriend. She wanted my role and I got changed and promoted to it, and she got jealous.” she explained ”Let’s day she wasn’t really mentally stable, and she wasn’t lacking means to an end. She ended up threatening to hurt one of my closest friends back in NY, in… ways. unless I leave and give her the role back” she told him, even though she didn’t know why she was even telling him that, since he probably didn’t even care. ”And I knew she was capable of doing it and not all words. So I left…” she finished her story, looking at the path as she walked ”Unlike what you think about me, I actually do appreciate loyalty. I’ll never do something to purposely hurt people I love” she said, genuinely. And as much as he could choose not to believe a word she said, he knew her well enough to know and be aware of the fact that she doesn’t lie, but in her eyes he was just not willing to admit it. Go figure.

@benitz786 why does it just look bad to me

Madilfill · 31 December 2020 02:45

Mikel felt nervous. His stomach was in knots and he regretted his last few drinks now. He didn’t know what she wanted to talk about. There was so much left unsaid. ”I’m sorry. I’m sorry about everything. I should have told you about who Jordan is to me before.” He just looked at her as she spoke. They were away from the group now and secluded. He didn’t need everyone else knowing his business more than they already do. “I could care less what Jordan is to you!” He said while shaking his head. “All I care about is the fact that you kissed him while at prom with me.” He told her and left out a sigh as he ran a hand through his dark hair. ”i don’t know what you feel anymore, and I’m a complete mess” “the sh*tty thing is I do care still! Too much. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be talking to you right now.” He told her in a tone that was short but also soft in his speaking. He didn’t want to sound mad, even if he was. “I’ve been a mess too, doesn’t help you and him are all over social media and magazines everywhere I go. Do you think I like seeing the girl I like out with another guy?” He asked her and let his shoulders drop. His hands crossed over his chest as he looked at her. She stood in front of him wearing his jacket and he couldn’t help but like the way it hugged her. ”Ask me anything, and I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.” He shook his head. “I don’t even know what to ask.” He mumbled under his breathe. I blinked his eyes at her. “When you did it, kissed him at prom, did I even cross your mind? Like, I don’t even understand.” He shook his head again trying to wrap everything around in his mind. He hoped she did.

Dannydandan

Daniel continued to walk through the woods in the dark night, ignoring the sounds of crickets - annoying pests more like it. Besides that, and the presence of Miss. Keller, it was almost a nice night. The wind was blowing slightly making it just breezy enough for the walk to almost be considered refreshing. Well… for everything except the fact that he was walking in close proximity to Yara Keller. Once upon a time, Dan would have been elevated by this. Walking with the girl he loved through the darkness, keeping each other their company. There were times when Dan and Yara were together that they could talk all night and not notice the time pass by. But that time, well, it was long gone.

Though he was lost in his thoughts as he walked, Yara did catch his attention when she begin explaining what had happened to her in New York. Daniel slowed his pace, to walk beside her as he listened about a girl who was jealous of Yara - which consequently lead to her returning. “So you decided to leave because of what sounds like some half talented twit who was resorted to threatening you for a relationship with the lead actor that will last all of the duration of the musical?” Dan questioned, ducking under a branch as he said the words. “All because she threatened you?” After a few seconds - Dan stopped in his tracks and leaned against a tree as he looked at her. The moonlight illuminated her features to perfection. Though, in Daniel’s eyes, she was always the embodiment of perfection - whether she thought it about herself or not. It took Daniel a moment, but he had to snap himself out of that “You do understand that all of broadway and acting is filled with that right? When you’re good, Yara, people will always either love you, or want to be you. You can’t run away from every fight,” Perhaps Daniel didn’t know what he was talking about but at the same time, he didn’t take threats lightly. If someone threatened him, Daniel made sure that person would never threaten him again. After a few seconds of looking at her, he sighed. “What’s the girl’s name?” Dan asked - though they both knew in that moment it was more than a simple ask. Daniel would ruin that girl within a second of gaining an internet connection. Though… maybe there was more to the story. Daniel knew the musical she was in wasn’t the only lead role she was offered. No even after leaving halfway through the production, Yara was offered a role in Mean Girls the Musical, Hamiltion, hell, f*cking Mary Poppins. Yes… perhaps Dan had kept more tabs on Yara than he was willing to admit.

As she continued, talking about how she appreciated loyalty - and the fact that she’d never do something to purposely hurt those she loves - something in his heart tugged. “Then you clearly never loved me,” Dan whispered after a momentary second of waiting. Daniel didn’t know what he believed anymore, but he knew the words that came out of his mouth were more a defense mechanism to protect him than anything else. Maybe part of him believed her - that she didn’t intentionally hurt him. But something in his heart wouldn’t let him admit that fact to himself.

“Was that why you wanted to do this? The talk? To tell me that you’re loyal? I honestly don’t know what you want me to say at this point Yara. It’s been a year. You’re clearly over it with your escapades with movie stars and dancers and that Nick Jonas fellow and I’m clearly doing fine myself. So why do you keep bloody bringing up something that doesn’t really matter to either of us anymore.”

Daniel didn’t know what he was doing anymore, as he took a step closer to her. She was still wearing his Jacket and soon all the space between them had disappeared. “If it did, we’d both feel something with this…” with that, Daniel brought his head down and met her lips, kissing the girl he once loved. Though deepening the kiss after a second, Daniel couldn’t kid himself at the jolt of electricity he felt through his body as he did the deed. Though after a few moments, he forced himself to pull away. Taking a deep breath, Dan made sure to act as if nothing had occurred. That his body didn’t still react to her every whim. That he still wasn’t wrapped around her finger and all she had to do was pull to get him all tangled up. “See,” Dan whispered, pulling her chin up so his eyes met her own. “Nothing,” he lied.

With that, Dan begun walking again. It was only another minutes walk before he was at the clearing where his helicopter was waiting for him and then… he could escape and attempt to get his mind off what just happened and the feelings that had just flooded back within his body - making him weaker than he’d ever like to admit. “Any last sentiments, Keller? I’d say you have about a minute left before our seven minutes in hell are done,”

Jezebel Mallory Sloane

Jezebel looked back at the ground, pulling Mikel’s jacket slightly tighter around her, as she listened to him. “Who Jordan is to me, is why I did it.” Jezebel said quietly, more to herself than anything. Jordan meant so much to her. He was more to her than she even knew how to explain. When he said he still cared and that if he didn’t he wouldn’t be talking to her, it in a way made her feel a little better, and hurt that much worse at the same time. A part of her just wanted to say something along the lines of Show me. Show me you care. That was one thing Jordan did, but Mikel hadn’t. Jordan told her he cared about her, and that he would fight for her, but what had Mikel done? Since prom they hadn’t spoken more than a few words to each other over text, leaving her wondering how he felt. All he had done was push Jordan, and put her on the spot with that dare. She knew the pictures of her and Jordan would have hurt him, and she couldn’t deny that he had been a mess, but he also still had no idea what was going on for her especially not right then. “You were in Vegas with my brother, and Jordan invited me out to spend time together and so we could actually talk about prom.” When he asked if he crossed her mind when she was kissing Jordan at prom, she knew her answer would hurt him probably more than anything else. “Honestly, no. All I was thinking in that moment was that the only person I’ve ever said ‘I love you’ to was standing in front of me, and that something I’d dreamed about for the past two years was actually happening, but after the kiss, all I could think about was how much I hurt you.”

Malachi Azure

After Kai had explained the true nature of his relationship with Elodie, Riker came over to him. Kai just shook his head with a laugh at Riker’s question about his sleep schedule. “Fairly normal before 3am, then back to normal about half an hour to an hour later. I don’t suppose Jordan and Yara have found a solution to silencing our unnecessary alarm yet though, right?” Kai was fine with Riker’s guitar playing most of the time, just not when he was trying to sleep. A couple hours earlier, fine, or a few hours later would even be alright, just not 3am. Then Riker mentioned Akielah, asking when she’d be there. Akielah found it fun to mess with Riker, and Kai knew she’d do something while she was there. “My sister gets here the day after we get back from the camping trip, and no she doesn’t know you’re my neighbor yet.”

A soft laugh escaped his lips when Kai asked if Jordan and Yara had yet found a solution to silencing his… habits. “See the problem with that is they’d either have to cut the strings of my guitar, which Jordan can’t since all of the guitars in that condo are vintage. Or kick me out, and we both know I’m far too lovable to be kicked out - though they have threatened it more than once. But could you imagine that? Me. On the streets? Begging for a home. I’m sure someone would pick me up and take me home like a stray,” With that, Riker leaned further into the log, getting comfortable in his newfound seat as Kai explained the situation with the devil… sorry, Akielah.

“Wait wait wait wait. So she’ll be with a wall away from me? Damn, Kai. If she’s staying with you I can promise you one thing. Neither of you are getting any sleep that night. I’ll plug in the amp this time so it really reaches the top of your two-story condo,” Riker grinned. Akielah and him had… gone after each other mor than once. Usually Akielah winning, and if Riker managed to get something through (the charcoal in the toothpaste that turned her teeth black for a week was epic) she’d come right back at him and hit him harder. So fear didn’t even begin to describe how he felt with the little 14-year-old. But despite that, she was a rad teen. For the most part, at least.

“Okay okay but what about other stuff. I haven’t heard any… hanky panky recently - which trust me, you’re going to get no complaints from me. But weren’t you the guy who came with me to that victoria secret party and left with two of the models within an hour?” Riker asked - more curiosity than anything else.

Dorian DeLoughrey

His eyes stayed on hers for a couple of seconds, smiling at her choice of words. He couldn’t really read her, tell what she was hoping to get out of this dare so he took a step forward, carefully watching her reaction. What she said before did make him feel better and not like he was somehow forcing her to do this… even if they were just talking. “I was…” Chuckling, he looked in the direction they came from and shortly shook his head. Maybe his dares weren’t the most innocent ones, he was kissing some girls and talking about cheerleaders so he couldn’t really blame her for being careful. He even expected her to act that way but he didn’t want her to think he was there, with her, just to use her in a way or make that list of cheerleaders he’d slept with longer.

“And you weren’t doing yours. Would you say no to this one if I stayed quiet? You can hurt my feelings, it’s okay,” he joked in an attempt to make her more comfortable being there alone with him but he quickly got more serious again and curiously asked, “Was there anyone else you’d rather be here with?” That was something he was wondering, especially after seeing her with Jordan the other day but maybe it was a way to ask her “Anyone you’d, I don’t know… let kiss you. Or am I allowed to do that too?”

After Sadie

It wasn’t long until he got his next dare but this one actually made him nervous. Probably for the first time that night he looked towards Jessica, meeting her eyes. He wanted to tell her about it, say what he was “hiding” from her, explain why he never said anything… even if he had no idea what he could possibly say to her. “I’ve heard the voicemail,” he simply said, waiting for her reaction. Any kind of reaction actually but her expression didn’t change. She stood up and walked away from them, making him look to the side as he took a deep breath in. He wanted to go after her, finally talk to her about it in a nicer way but he knew if he did that everyone could guess where he was going, Daniel would probably try to stop him. But he hoped he could find her later, at a spot he never really forgot.

So as the game went on, Dorian tried hard not to look in the direction Jessica left and focus on the game. What helped was his next dare. Helped… it was an awful dare but a good distraction. Kissing every guy there wasn’t on his bucket list but points are points and he didn’t want to miss a chance to win them. “And rate them, well okay,” he chuckled as he stood up, looking around at already entertained people. He first went to Daniel with a disgusted expression, just wanting to get it over with, already regretting what he was about to do. That was probably the shortest kiss he ever had and he wasn’t complaining. As soon as he pulled back, Dorian wiped his own lips and rolled his eyes at Daniel’s comment. “You too, Parker. -10/10”
Next he went to the person he knew would be way better than Daniel… or anyone here for that matter. Mikel, of course. And just like Dorian expected, he didn’t disappoint him. There might’ve been some tongue action which Dorian didn’t expect but he also didn’t mind it, it only made him laugh as he pulled back and jokingly fanned himself with his hand. “Woah, 10/10, would recommend.” Another guy that got that rating from Dorian was Riker. Maybe not just for the kiss but the way he acted and joked about it. “Call me later.” “Of course, love,” Dorian winked back at him as he moved on to Theo, his friend that didn’t seem so… happy. He could guess why and without wanting to start any kind of argument with him, knowing it was pretty easy, he simply moved on to the next person. Again and again, until he made sure no one was left without a little kiss from him.

And as he looked around to see if he missed anyone, his gaze landed on Aline and a playful smile immediately appeared on his lips. Her brother wasn’t there so that meant he had to kiss her instead. Not really but who can stop him? “We can say I’m doing this just because your brother isn’t here, not because of what you did earlier,” Dorian whispered in her ear as he bent down, waiting for a couple of seconds before doing what she did to him, but not in that order. He started from her neck, leaving a trail of gentle kisses as he made his way to her lips, his hand resting on her cheek. There was a soft smile on his face as he stopped, their lips just inches away for a moment, before closing that distance. It was a simple, sweet kiss, not the kind they’d usually share.

But his happiness could never last for a long time. As he sat back down and read the question again, he saw something he was always curious about, something he always wanted to know the answer to and after 4 years still didn’t know. It wasn’t his place to ask, not like this but he couldn’t help it. He slowly looked towards Andy, quietly asking, “Why did Jessica leave 4 years ago?” And the way Andy reacted was not what he expected from him. It was a rare moment when Dorian was left speechless. Looking at his cousin, completely disappointed in what he was saying. It was easy for him to say that when he wasn’t the one that lost probably the most important person in his life. “Scr3w you,” was the only thing Dorian could mumble, walking towards his cousin and punching him as his attention was now on Daniel and something he didn’t care to listen to. If Andy even was talking to Daniel… Dorian’s attention was fully on him that he ignored everything happening around him. Not feeling sorry about it for a second. “You don’t know a fcking thing,” Dorian quickly added as he turned around, attempting to walk away not just from him, but everyone there.

”I didn’t run away because she threatened me, I ran away because she was actually capable of doing it” she replied as Daniel responded to her story. Why did she even tell him? She didn’t know, but it was probably the part of her that still trusted him more than anyone, sadly enough that part of her was still there.
After a moment, he stopped and leaned on a tree looking at her, so she as well stopped, leaning against a different tree. She felt slightly dizzy so she took a moment and a deep breath while closing her eyes before she looked up to the barely visible star filled sky for a moment. He went on about jealousy in the world of showbiz, and she listened to him as he spoke, although she missed the beginning of the sentence.
”What’s the girl’s name?”
She turned her gaze back to him. When Daniel asks for someone’s name like that, it was never just because he wanted to know their name, it was because he wanted to track down the person and make them regret it. ”Sarah Wagner” she said quietly.

“Then you clearly never loved me,”
He whispered, but since they were the only ones there and there was nothing around to make noise, she could hear him quite clearly, and I hurt to hear.
He went on talking, and he was in a way right, but he also wasn’t. But out of all he said, the last sentence of his little speech caught her attention
”So why do you keep bloody bringing up something that doesn’t really matter to either of us anymore.”
”Because it does” she said quietly and looked down. Clearly, none of it mattered to him, she was just wasting her time trying to save the one thing in her life she cared for most. She wasn’t trying to win him back, she knew she couldn’t do that. She was just trying to save even the tiniest remains of what they had.

”If it did, we’d both feel something with this…”
And that was the problem. As he said those words, he came closer to her and did the one thing she never expected to feel anymore, he kissed her, and all the feelings she tried to bury cake rushing back. In that moment she no longer felt weak or sick like she did up until that second Her heart beat stronger than ever before, as strong as all these years ago when they two of them have just got together, she fell for him, like falling from a skyscraper in maximum speed. He was the one guy she loved more than anyone, even now, he still drove her crazy with every touch and every breath that made her body light up in flames. And that kiss definitely didn’t make it easier…

”See, Nothing,” He said looking in her eyes, and turned away walking again. She stayed there for a moment, not focused enough to hear what he was saying. Yara was still rested against the tree that stopped her from feeling her body grow weaker as the day went on, she had felt this way for the past few days, but by now she was already too weak to function, her body couldn’t take it anymore as she was about to follow, but as she got up from the tree her body fell to the floor, as she lost consciousness, landing with a crash noise on the floor, and everything went dark.

As Andy finished the prank call to her parents – something Jessica’s parents were not going to be happy about. Yes, pulling the “I’ve kidnapped your daughter” card while they were going to tea with the queen when she had, indeed, been kidnapped before was not something they were going to enjoy. Though she went and texted her parents right after to tell them it was a joke. She wasn’t kidding when she said they would have called the national guard, MI6, CIA, and FBI to look for her. Though the last time she was taken, Jess had simply convinced the man to let her go… in a sense. So, in retrospect, she was only missing for approximately two weeks. No big deal. Except… she did miss the limited-edition McDonald’s toy coming out with an Andy bobblehead and was upset but… oh well. Though sold out at every store, She convinced Andy to call McDonald’s headquarters and get her a personalized one. Oh, the perks of being married to a McNugget.

Though her parents would probably try to call her again in a few hours to talk about this new revelation that she was not in London anymore and crashing at Dan’s. She wrapped her arms around Andy, bringing her mouth to his ear whispering “If they send a PI after you, don’t blame me,” she smiled before getting up and going back to her seat – enjoying as the dares continued. That was, until Dorian’s dare. The one about telling her what he’s been hiding for the past few weeks. Honestly, she expected Dorian to drink. But he didn’t, instead, he told her that he had heard the voicemail. The very once Jess had just gotten used to imagining him not have hearing. The one where she told him… well… a little too much. Her heart ached as she looked at him – not showing any emotions on her features. No, her features remained stoic… though she couldn’t stay there. “Well,” Jess mumbled, standing up from her seat next to Maddy who had begun talking to someone else. Jessica slowly walked towards the middle of the circle where the alcohol was located and grabbed herself a bottle of Absinthe. “I think,” she continued people still looking in her direction, “I’m going to call it a night, you kids have fun,” Jess mumbled, her eyes meeting Dorian’s for just a second before she turned away– taking her bottle as she walked towards her tent and slipping inside. Jess had no intention of staying in the tent. No, she just wanted one thing. The letter. Grabbing the item and leaving her phone in the tent after replying to Dan – Jessica snuck out the other side and started walking through the dark woods illuminated by only moonlight. Jess looked at the bottle in her hand but didn’t drink from it – for some reason not wanting to really get drunk tonight. She was slightly tipsy from earlier, but enough time had passed that it had mostly cleared out of her system. So, as she reached the waterfall. Jess placed the bottle away from her and hugged her chest, closing her eyes as she thought back to the night she said the words of the voicemail. Her mind going over it again, the rain, the feeling of helplessness. The hope? All of it was crushed as the helicopter flew her away to the airstrip to her new life.

Though did she still feel like that? Did Jessica still love Dorian? A part of her would always love the memory of him, her best friend, and perhaps Jessica was mistaking her past love with how her heart currently felt about him. Opening her eyes, Jess looked down at the unopened letter to her future self at her feet – a small memory of the promise Dorian had made her that they’d read it to each other in the future meeting her mind. Though it was clear that would never happen. With a sigh, Jess opened the small envelope and found her cursive handwriting five years earlier.

“Heyyoooooo Jesssssssssss. Have you ever said “Jess” really fast? Kinda sounds like a snake or some sh!t. Like hisssss. Maybe you should have been one of those witches from Harry Potter. Ehh oh well. Oop sorry I got distracted. That is not at all what this letter was about. This letter is about me (younger, sexier you) getting to know you (older, still sexy me). But first things first. Did you eat? The answer better bloody be a yes. If I’m hungry right now, I’m sure you’re hungry five years in the future. Go eat NOWWWW…”

A soft laugh escaped Jessica’s lips as she read the words. She remembered what she wrote – photographic memory – mostly – and all. But reading it with the paper in hand was a different feeling.

“Okay now that we’re not hangry anymore – let’s catch up. There are a few things I want to ask of you Jessica, and you have to be honest – okay?

Have you had sex? Yes

Was your first time good? It wasn’t bad

Was it with Lyonrad? No, no it was not.

Are you and him still together? No, no we are not.

Are you good at it? I mean, I’ve had no complaints

So…. Whatcha eat today? Gummy bears, Orange Soda, and a PB and J

How’s Anna? Still Anna

Still Anna?Yeah… Yep

How’s Dan? Alive and well, still getting punched on a daily

Nuggets or Fries? NUGGETS of course

Now the Important questions: Dorian’s, there right? You’re reading this out loud? No

How is he? Don’t know.

How’s his football game? Improved at all or still terrible ? Don’t know.

Are you still annoying the bloody hell out of him on purpose? Nope.

Still best friends? Why am I even asking? Of course, you two are. Nope, no we’re not.

Is there anything you regret? So… so much.

The questions went on. Pages of random questions little Jessica had written for herself. From if her career choice had changed, to how certain people in her life were, to her favorite midnight snack, to her favorite memory of Dorian now that they spent 5 more years together… and so on.

Right well, those were all the pressing 231 questions I had for you. The last thing I want to leave this on, Older Jessica, Is I hope you’re having a good life. Well… don’t know how to leave this message but I love you Jess… me? Yes. I love me. Less sexy me, but still me. Also, goodbye blonde dork (The dork being Dorian in the off chance you dyed your hair blonde).

Part of her wanted to rip the letter up – throw it away. But another part of her couldn’t. Couldn’t get rid of another set of memories that held her together. Maybe if she was drunker but for now – Jess folded the pages back up, slipping them back in the envelope as she laid down on the ground and stared up at the sky.

Dominic Lucier

Dominic sat at the campfire with his elbow propped up on his leg. The camping trip was off to a smooth start and the game they were playing seemed like fun, yet at the same time, it was totally a drama-starter in disguise. This became even more evident when Jezebel dared him to explain to everyone what happened between him and Maverick. He looked down at his cup, contemplating drinking instead. He wasn’t really one to kiss and tell, but then he remembered that there were points attached to this. “The way you said it makes it sound like there’s some wild story.” He commented to Jezebel. "We were at the prom afterparty and we started talking, and then we kissed.” He told them, giving them the basics of what happened.

Andy lost his cool, he wasn’t usually like that, but some things bothered him and popped his fuse, and hurting Jessica was one of them. Needless to say, she was probably the most important person in his life, so the dare dorian gave him made him lose it. The fact that he knew why she left didn’t mean he was supposed to just share it around on a fcuking truth or dare game.
”screw you,” Dorian said, and came up to Andy who had just went back to his place, ”You don’t know a fcking thing,” Dorian added as he punched him. ”I clearly know more than you or you wouldn’t have asked you fcuking sh*t” he muttered. Riker was no longer holding him back, as he was already not trying to punch anymore, and going to his place, so as Dorian came and punched him, Andy didn’t hold back and punched him back, and Andy knew how to give a punch, just ask Daniel’s nose. He punched dorian, and nothing mattered as not just more than one person was about to come stop them, but eventually the person who came and actually stopped Andy from punching again, was Valerie. Which was quite surprising since she hated dorian, ”it’s not worth it” she said quietly as she went in between them, looking at Andy and completely ignoring Dorian’s existence.Andy would never punch her, but he would definitely punch dorian. But she was right, it’s not worth it, he’s not worth it. Andy sighed and looked at him with raw anger in his eyes before turning around and walking away into the woods. Far away from everything.

@astxrism Dori punched ok
@me Valerie yes

Truth or drink Round 3

The game was entertaining to watch and It lifted his mood a tiny bit. It was probably because It was fun to watch people make a full out of themselves. Aline decided to ask him to basically lap dance Jessica. He was surprised that she asked him this because they were good acquaintances, well at least he thought that, so he felt a little weird about that. Either way it was a game for points, and he should’ve expected a question like that. He was super tipsy but he still had a little sense left to know that he shouldn’t do that. "Well, maybe it would make Selena jealous and she would want to get- wait what am I thinking that makes no sense. But Jessica- no” After the thoughts bumbling in his head about the dare, he finally said. “No, I-I can’t do that.” He quickly changed the subject and dared Jessica to have someone prank call her parents. That was light hearted and fun and he was looking forward to seeing that. Some time later, Dorian was dared to kiss all of the guys and Brandon wasn’t happy about the possibility of Dorian’s face being on his. When the kiss finally came to him, he cringed and drank alcohol after.

Ketziah Drake

It wouldn’t have been difficult for someone to predict that eventually there would be dares bringing hostility. First, Dorian had dared Andy to tell everyone why Jessica had left, which was only the start as he refused to say. That was when Andy had dared Daniel to tell everyone what happened with Nora. Ketziah knew that Andy and Daniel had at one point been friends, but she really didn’t know what happened. The issue with the dare was when Daniel started talking, pushing Andy and trying to get that kind of a reaction out of him. Riker had luckily held him back in that moment, until Andy had sat back down. Though, that didn’t last long as Dorian came over and punched Andy, leading to Andy punching him back. Valerie happened to be the one to stop things from going any further before Andy walked away. It was shortly after that where Ketziah had to tell why she came back. She kept it vague, but honest, despite knowing people she was closer with may ask her about it later. As soon as she answered the question, she walked off to find where Andy went. “Hey. How’s your face? I can’t have D messing it up on me.”
