When It Rains

Chapter 19: Truth Or Dare?

It was almost weird, just Dimitri and I?  But what about Alana?  What happened while I was gone?

He smiled sweetly but I could tell he was still a little upset. I tried to take my time slowly making my way around the couch and sitting down in a chair. As I made my way to a chair he looked at me like I was insane. "What?"

He looked almost disappointed when I sat down, "Nothing." His tone sounded defeated.

"Wha-Dimitri did you think we were gonna cuddle or something?" I asked almost astounded by his thought.

"Wha- No... I mean... well, no, just seems like... you know, since we don't have a blanket..." He drifted off and just looked down at his phone in his hands.

"Your hopeless." I reluctantly got up and walked over and sat down next to him. I peeked over his shoulder trying to make sure he noticed, "Who you talking to?" I asked trying to be a noticeably nosey as possible. I pushed my face past his shoulder and almost into his phone.

He brought it around and giggled while giving me a quick push away. I jumped forward and tried to make a scene about looking at his phone, "Who you talking to Dimitri? Huh?"

He giggled and I couldn't help but smile, "Get off me."

"Awe that's no fun." I said defeated as I sat down back in my seat.

"No one, just some friends back home.  I thought I might as well send them an update message." He said as he settled back down in his seat. "But no one to worry about." He smiled as he brought his face closer to mine.

"Why would I worry?" I backed away gently, startled by how close he suddenly was.

"You seem to have been lately." He responded through a smile. "I've got an idea."

"Huh?" I huffed.

"Since it's us two, there isn't really a point to a bottle. Rock, paper, scissors to see who goes first in a game of truth or dare?" He asked holding his free hand out as he put his phone on the table.

I looked at it raising an eyebrow, "Your a goof." I said holding out my hand. I also reached out and placed my phone on the table. I made sure I had a mental note of where it was. We raised our hands and dropped our fists in sync.

"Rock, paper, scissors." We said in unison.

I threw rock and he threw paper, "Ugh." I argued.

"Truth or dare?" He asked without skipping a beat.

"Truth." I said without thinking.

"Hmm..." He brought his finger up to his chin in a thinking position. He took his time and for some reason it made me giggle. I pushed into his arm with my elbow while he giggled, "Alright, Kiss, Marry, Kill, our friend group only."

"Oooh, a difficult one I see. Well let's see. I would have to say immediately kill off Thomas. If he isn't gonna do anything but cause problems." I smiled.

"Oh, a quick but bold choice." He joked.

"But let's see, I would have to say kiss... Luke. Even though he isn't much to look at. But marry... you I guess. Since there isn't any other options." I joked.

"Wow, harsh!" He said back.

"Wha- Its not like I'd include Bella or Alana." I shot back his statement with a defiant glare.

"No, I didn't expect you too."  He smiled slyly at me.

It gave me the slight sense that he had planned that one out.  He held his hand out and I pushed it back, "Hmm... no. I'm going next since there's only two of us."
