I watch the empty liquor bottle as it spins in a circle, taking forever to slow down before it stops on the girl with fire red hair who's sitting next to me. I'm not mad, but seriously, it never stops on me. She looks nervous and her cheeks turn a bright shade of pink.

"No backing out," Ryan grins, a red solo cup in his left hand. He's such a child sometimes.

The girl leans forward, meeting the blond girl who spun the bottle in the middle. They slowly inch closer to each other and their lips meet in a short, awkward kiss.

"I have never kissed a girl before," she chuckles, her cheeks still blushed pink.

"Well now you have," the blond girl says with a smile. "Your turn to spin."

She puts her hand on the bottle and twists her wrist, causing the bottle to spin again. I watch it and it stops on the guy who always wears flip flops. His face lights up.

The two of them move toward each other, metting in the middle, and this kiss lasts a few seconds longer than the previous one.

"Okay Jon," Ryan says, rolling his eyes. "Take your turn."

So Jon does and this time it stops on Ryan. Ryan takes a sip of his beer and he and Jon lean into each other and kiss like they've done it a thousand times.

"You look like you're way too into that," I say to Ryan. He grins at me and shrugs a shoulder.

Ryan makes the bottle spin and it stop literally between me and Spencer. I look down at it, my heart suddenly pounding in my chest, and I calm down when I see it's definitely pointed at Spencer. "Maybe next time Bren," Ryan teases as he and Spencer share a quick kiss.
