Double Dare

𝑳𝒐𝒈𝒂𝒏

I wake up at 5 because of loud music coming from outside the room, a song that sounds vaguely familiar, I then remember than I am not in my own house, and that I'm in Killer's house, and that I nearly kissed last night, then I kicked her out of her own brothers room. I need to apologize, oh god she's gonna hate me, this is going to make winning this bet so much harder.

Hastily, I leave the room and open the door of hers, my breath catches in my throat at the sight of her. There she is. On the bed. Her eyes glued shut. Singing and dancing to 'I bet you look good on the dance floor' by Arctic Monkeys, she's on the chorus and screams out the lyrics

I bet you look good on the dance floor.
I don't know if you're looking for romance or
I don't know what you're looking for
I said, I bet that you look good on the dance floor.
Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984.
Well, from 1984.

She's just about to start the next verse when she opens her eyes and sees me there, leaning on the doorframe. She jumps and screams, quickly fixing her hair and jumping off the bed and turning off the music

"Right yeah, I forgot about you for a sec" She stammers and smooths her hair down,

"Clearly" I smirk,

"Sorry, did I wake you up?" She gets a t-shirt from her cupboard and throws it over her pajamas. It's mid-september and this girl is in shorts and a shirt, no, I don't think you could even call it that, before she put the t-shirt on, she was wearing pink satin shorts and one of those black, little, lacy, bra-shirt thingies. I have to admit, it was sexy as hell.

"Yes well loud music at 5am really does wake up a person"

"Oh shit sorry you only got like 2 hours of sleep"

"Yeah well... I'm gonna head out now so I'll um see you in school right Killer?"

Her expression turns panicked,

"No! No! Wait!" she grabs my arm. Ha! She wants me to stay, "Why don't you stay for breakfast, schools starts at 8 and I'll wake you up in 2 hours?"

I look down at wear our bodies are linked. Skin on skin. Her hand on my arm. Sparks of electricity coursing through our bodies, I clear my throat,

"About last night..." I say and see her face hardening into a fake smile, "I'm sorry, for you know" I gesture with my free hand,

"No I don't know" She honestly looks confused, is she actually dumb or is she playing dumb? I never know with her.

"About how I tried to... you know"

"Once again Devil, I don't know" she laughs and its the sweetest sound ever heard on Earth,

"How I tried to... kiss you" I mumble the last bit,

"You what?"

"How I tried to kiss you goddammit!"

"Oh that, don't worry about that, that meant nothing right?" She shrugs, "Unless.."

"Unless what?" I step closer to her, smirking

"Unless..." She bites her lip and looks me up and down

Okay I need to play it cool, don't give in, don't seem desperate.

"Listen Killer, you're Luce's cousin, meaning no messing around so how about, I apologize, go back to sleep and you wake me up in a bit okay? I'm sorry for almost kissing you" I lean away from her

"Right yeah"

She seems annoyed,

"You okay Killer?"

"Pftt yeah just um, you go to sleep and I'll... I'll be um... here"

Not annoyed, she seems distracted, anxious, flustered... why?

"Um... okay, I'll see you in a bit" I start walking out the door,

"Bye" is the last thing she says before the door slams in my face.

Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!

I was briefly attracted to Logan De Luca! I mean, I was always ATTRACTED to him, physically but we've never actually TOUCHED before.

What was that feeling? It was so weird! I've never felt that way before, not even with...

Lets not think about him right now.

I have a bet to win

And I will win it.

.  .  .

Unknown number

Hey Lucy, you working on the bet or do you have to start working on flashing people?

Who is this?

Hailey x

Ohh, dw babes, I've started, and it's going REALLY well so, might wanna buy new underwear

You know what British Girl, I think I like you

I'm flattered American Girl, I think I do to, we could be friends.

That is not a bad idea
we could

Hey would you look at that, not all American girls are bitches

And not all British girls wear tons and tons of make-up

You learn something new every day.

American Girl reacted '😂' to your message

Okay, maybe she's good for Luce. I might give her his number anyway. They seem cute together. I ship.

Does us becoming friends mean that she'll call off the bet? I hope not.

What do you mean you hope not? What happened to "Ew Logan De Luca, hottest guy in school, I hate him"

I do not sound like that! And I do hate him, I just wanna break his heart.

But having your heart broken isn't the best feeling you know that from personal experience so why would you do that to someone else?

Shut up. It's none of your business.

He won't be AS heart broken will he? And who knows if I'll actually get him to fall for me, he hates me too.

Didn't seem like that last night.

Again, none of your business. Ugh! Why am I even talking to you? You're not real.

Okay I need a game plan. I'll brainstorm with Hailey and Reagan tomorrow.

words: 988

I hate writers block

Also I've added a playlist, I'll add a new song with a new chapter x
