"So,are we all ready to go?" I say after everyone is settled again.
Everyone nods. "Great, Mello, Lexi, you're on."
Mello look at each other before Lexi places one end of the pocky in her mouth and turns to Mello. Mello places the other end in his mouth and begins nibbling. The atmosphere suddenly became intense as the seconds by, only a centimeter was left before Lexi and Mello closed their eyes and kissed, it lasted exactly 7 seconds before they broke off. Shock was clearly present in the room and was broken only when Lexi said meekly, "well, wasn't that interesting?"
Mello laughed and soon everything was relaxed.
"Well, who's next??" Lexi asked excited. we started the next round and it ended up being me and Lexi. "Are you purposely picking on me??" she said but was happy enough as we watched the boys' faces when we started nibbling. we were close to the end of the pocky when the sight of their faces was too much too handle. Lexi and I bursted out laughing and couldn't stop for a good 5 minutes. We apologized but the boys said that they hadn't found it displeasing in the least. As the turns went on, Mello and Matt switching off who was going to be dared when they were put together. It had been the 3rd time that Lexi and I were together when I stopped.
"What's wrong?" Lexi asks me.
"Nothing, just liked to see the guys dissappointed again." everyone laughed. "Well," says Lexi, " since it's my turn, why don't you kiss Near on the lips for 10 seconds, I dare you. "
"Lexi!!"
"What," she says all innocent-like, "he has been looking at you possesively all through the game. Do it!"
I turn to Near, "Would you mind if I..."
Near shakes his head and stands up. I move closer to him and feel three pairs of eyes on my back. When I'm standing in front of Near before I could change my mind I kiss him. 1..2..3..4..wow. His arms wrap around me and I start counting again. 6..9..3..4..5..6..7..8..9........10. I pull back and when I do I see in Near's face longing, joy, love, and peace. It was a beautiful look but he hides it quickly when we realize once again that we're in a room.
I turn and look at Lexi. "SO, am I good?"
She beams, looks at the dumb-founded boys who were staring at me and then says, "Yeah, your better than good."
She smirks and turns to the boys.
"So, do we keep playing...or do we all have some things to think about!?"
