"The last thing Fanboy and I argued about was probably the time he destroyed my pointe shoes and didn't tell me, but then he replaced it with a new pair," Tessa was saying as she unpinned her sandy blonde hair, letting it flow into its natural form instead of a bun. She just changed out of her ballet outfit and into a tank top and Capri pants for a more casual look. After dance class, she usually invited her friends Devon and Jessica over to her house to hang out. Today they were sitting in the floor of Tessa's bedroom and playing a game of truth or dare. The favorite subject of truth questions? Their boyfriends, of course.
Perhaps it would helpful to describe the girls a bit. Tessa was a lean, cheerful girl with long legs, perfect for ballet dancing, a vital part of her life. Her love for dancing was expressed in her room, full of posters of famous ballerinas and ballet equipment, not to mention the lone leotard lying on her bed. Her boyfriend, Fanboy, was supportive of her love of dance since the first day they met.
Devon is, in the utmost sense, a bookworm. Even though she wasn't the most extroverted person in the world, she was highly intelligent and a true tomboy. Makeup was seldom, if ever, applied to Devon's face. Her green hair was shrouding half her face, and her orange T-shirt was concealing the natural curves her body had. In fact, as they played she was absorbed in the newest work by one of her favorite authors. It was this love for reading that hooked her up with her boyfriend Sigmund, a world famous sorcerer.
It is safe to say that Jessica is rather a mix of both Devon and Tessa, personality wise. She is not 100% girlish, like Yo for example, but a love for the finer things in life conveys that feminine side of her. Any other time, of course, she'd rather be in a video game store than shopping for clothes. When she's not with her friends or her boyfriend Kyle (also a wizard), she's a remarkably shy human being. If you had been in the room with your back turned to the girls, you wouldn't have known Jessica was there as she listened to Tessa's truth answer. She was a little, well, fatter than the girls (she prefers the term "plump"), with brown hair almost shoulder-length. On this day Jessica chose to wear a green T-shirt with the Muppets on it, jeans, and black high tops.
"Okay, that makes sense," Devon said, not looking up from her intriguing book. This annoyed Tessa a tad, although she should've been used to it. She wanted Devon to pay attention to her friends, not her books like she always did. "I guess it's my turn. I'll take dare."
"Alright," Tessa replied, smiling like someone who just received an idea. "I dare you to stop reading your book for now and don't pick it up again until you get home." Devon sighed and marked her place.
"My turn now," Jessica remarked, breaking her momentary silence. She pushed up her glasses further up on her nose and looked at Devon, a hint of slyness in her blue eyes. "Okay, lay it on me. I'll go with truth." Devon thought for a moment, then had an idea for one.
"Jessica," she began seriously, "what is the most embarrassing thing to happen between you and Kyle?" Jessica almost at once felt a hard feeling in her stomach, for she knew of a particular event that would fit that question. It was something that very few people knew happened. In fact besides her and Kyle, only Fanboy, Chum Chum, and Kyle's Necronomicon knew about it. She was hesitant to tell her friends. How would Kyle react? He'd obviously be embarrassed, but would he be mad? "It can't be that bad, Jess." Jessica still didn't say anything.
"Ah, Jess, we're your best friends," Tessa said. "You can tell us anything. We'll understand." Jessica had to admit that was a good point. The girls always shared their problems with each other, so surely they could be trusted.
"Okay," Jessica finally answered, "I will tell you, but you must promise not to tell anyone else. Kyle would probably murder me if he found out someone else knew about it." Devon and Tessa leaned in with anticipation, waiting for her confession. She hesitated only a moment, and then with a sneaky grin said, "I saw Kyle naked once." Tessa regretted choosing that moment to snack out of the bowl of caramel popcorn that was set in the middle of their small circle, momentarily forgotten. The moment the words came out of Jessica's mouth, she almost choked in surprise.
"What?" Devon asked in disbelief. Her tone was a bit flat, but the look on her face was surprised nevertheless.
"I mean it!" insisted Jessica. "I really did see Kyle naked once!" Tessa and Devon glanced at each other, unsure of what to do. Jessica raised a brow in curiosity. "What's the big deal? You wanted to know!"
"W-well, we didn't think it would be something like that," was Tessa's reply, and rather an uncomfortable one I might add. The look on Jessica's face clearly stated she was growing annoyed. "It's just that seeing a guy like that at such an early age…it would freak me out for sure! You know how girls at school are always posting pictures of cute guys in their lockers and stuff. Imagine what they would think-"
"It doesn't matter what they think," Jessica said, rolling her eyes, "because we're not telling anyone! Remember? It was just an accident, and even if I'm gone past first base, that doesn't mean anyone else has to know, ESPECIALLY not Yo. She's such a gossip." Devon and Tessa glanced at each other again. "Promise me you won't tell anyone."
"Of course." The girls made a pact of honesty not to discuss it at school. The thing Jessica feared worst was Kyle if he knew she had told their secret. The results would be absolutely dire.
