Chapter 1: The Dare
Friday. September 13. 9:14 p.m. Everyone was playing Truth-Or-Dare.
It was Sasuke's turn to pick someone.
"Mello! Truth or dare?"
he asked.
"Truth" was Mello's reply.
"Oh, come on,
Mello! Pick dare for once!" Deidara said playfully.
Mello
smirked. "Fine. It's Emo Chicken Face so how bad could it be?"
"You say that and something always happens" his boyfriend, Matt,
piped up.
"Oh, gee, thanks" Mello said.
"So, you pick
dare?" Sasuke asked.
"Yeah! Bring it on!" Mello
challenged. Sasuke smirked.
"Alright. I've been saving this one
for someone like you...I dare you to spend one full night in the
hotel across the street....In room 1408."
Matt looked up from
his video game, Tenten looked over from kissing Neji and everyone
else stared at Sasuke. Sasuke looked at everyone individually.
".......What?"
he asked.
"Your seriously going to make him go there?"
Deidara asked.
"Yeah."
"Don't you know the stories?"
"I
do. And I dont believe them. Not one bit. "
"If he dies, it's
your fault." This remark caused Matt to glare viciously at Sasuke.
"Is it really that bad? It's just a hotel room" Zero Kiryu
said.
"I'd like to know too" Mello said with a hint of
confusion. Sasuke started explaining everything, from the murders to
the suicides, in great detail. Mello understood quickly that the room
was haunted and no one survived even an hour. Mello turned so pale
that even Near's hair looked dirty. Matt took notice of this an
rubbed his back. Tenten stood up and smacked Sasuke upside the head.
"What are you thinking?!" she shouted.
"Chill!"
sasuke started. "I have things worked out. I've placed camera's and
wiretaps, curtosy of L, all over the room. We'll see and hear
everything. Since the hotel is across the street, if there's any
trouble we can be there in two minutes or less. I already made
arrangements for you to stay there the whole night."
"Do you
ever shut up?" Zero asked.
"Yeah!" Sasuke said with an
annoyed tone. Tenten looked at Mello with wide-eyes.
"You can
chicken out...Please dont do this."
"Actually, I cant. I used
my chicken when I was dared to make-out with Emo Chicken Face all
night. Fine, I'll do it" Mello said.
"Who made you do that?"
Tenten asked. L hid behind the couch.
"Don't kill me!" he said
with a squeaky voice. Tenten rolled her eyes and ignored him. Mello
stood up and started walking towards the door. Matt stood up and
grabbed his wrist.
"You better be careful. Promise me" he
said. Mello was silent for a few minutes before he spoke.
"Alright. I promise." Matt smiled a bit.
"Thank you"
he said and kissed him. Mello kissed back but pulled away when Sasuke
poked him, signaling it's time to go. Mello sighed. Said "bye"
and "I love you" to Matt before leaving. Tenten watched him go
and was on the brink of tears. She slapped Sasuke again.
"You
put my Ani in danger!" she yelled.
"Stop, Tenten. You believe
the stories? They're not real" he said simply.
"You don't know
that!" she yelled again and left. What no one knew was that she had
snuck out of the house and followed Mello to the hotel room.
