-part 1-


"We had so much fun in the amusement park; we rode actually almost everything we just could wait to get up to. I remember a ton of kids laughed at us as we like went for ten rounds on the Ferris-wheel. But we didn't mind it."

"Why did you guys go for so much?" James asked and Logan listened to Carlos as he continued over and over looking out for Kendall who didn't seem to pay attention at all when he was telling his best friends how his date went today.

Carlos blushed as he thought of the reason, "it was the third round when we were on the top and she snuggled to my chest the closest possible. Me looking down at her and meeting her beautiful eyes, guys I don't know how I didn't notice what amazing eyes she has" he got lost a little bit in the story, but immediately snapped back when he caught both James and Logan frowning at him, and went along, "I just felt the need to kiss her right there when we were on the top of the world. Of course I know we weren't on the top of the world but you know, it felt like that in that moment."

James laughed, "So you kissed her?"

Carlos shook his head, "No. I waited for her to make the first move."

Logan impatiently hit Carlos with a pillow, Carlos threw it back but missed the goal and it landed on Kendall. The blonde just placed it off his chest and continued staring at the ceiling speechless, pretending like he didn't care about Carlos and his date.

"Go on" Logan said but Carlos motioned for James and Logan to look at Kendall.

James said turning to his friend who was lying across the couch, "Kendall, listen to Carlos, soon he'll reach the steamy part."

Kendall shrugged.

"Where do you know there is a steamy part?" Carlos asked half laughing.

"That was the main part of the entire thing. I'm sure you went on it" James answered and Logan nodded in agreement.

Kendall still did not bother to pay attention.

"How do you know that it really happened and I'm not just saying so?" Carlos teased knowing that the guys were eager to hear the dirty parts.

"Come on Litos" Logan kicked him and they began a quick foot boxing on the floor as they were sitting opposite from each other leaning against the two couches in the living room of Carlos' house. One of the couches was entirely taken by Kendall and the other one by James, so it left the floor for Carlos and Logan. Carlos was against the front of the one James lying on, and Logan against the other one which was used by Kendall.

James jumped off of the couch and stepped between the two fighting boys who seemed like two kids in that moment. "Shut it off guys. I wanna know everything. Who cares if Kendall doesn't care? Go on Carlos."

Carlos sighed and after calming himself down he said now facing to both James and Logan, "so we were still up there and I think saw that I wanted the kiss, she leant up and kissed me."

The scene came into vision in front of Carlos' chocolate eyes and he wondered how he should lecture all those things that happened there.

Their lips touched in a soft movement, the light wind caressed their faces and messed with her since they were above if not the entire world but above the park for sure, hair. Carlos ran his fingers into her locks to help the wind's job and to deepen the kiss. He and patiently waited for the moment when she'd part her lips to assure entrance for his tongue.

It didn't take much longer when finally Carlos got what he wanted, their tongues twirled just in the right way and the innocent kiss turned out to be a rough but sweet fight in their mouths. Soon the round ended and they were down again but either of them seemed to notice or care, they were lost in the moment.

When the actual round was over Carlos paid for a lot other and they got back into the cabin. As their mouth connected again she paid more attention to what she just felt, she memorized every little part of the dragged action, so she could taste the pink cotton-candy in Carlos' mouth and the soda what she drank a bit earlier was tickling Carlos' taste buds.

"After a time we came off of the wheel" Carlos said.

James again laughing, "I only wonder why you didn't take her there. That could have been so fucking hot."

"It was in the blaze of day and that just wasn't the right time yet. There was still a lot to go till then." He quite blushed that his friends would have thought that he would do it there.

"Oh but you thought about it?" Logan teased.

Carlos poked out his tongue, "yes I did. This is the point of this entire thing, isn't it? We all think about it, the question is which one of us dares to do it."

Logan giggled, "from the confidence with which you talk, you dared."

"I guess so, so go on" James tapped his feet on the wood floor and grabbing a fistful of popcorn he mumbled, "come on, go on" still seeing the hesitation in Carlos' eyes when it was about telling them every detail so they'd believe it really happened.

They all looked over at Kendall again, but he was now reading some book. All of the others shrugged on the sight and shoving some popcorn into their mouths Logan and James waited for more as they would have been reading a book or watching a movie; knowing all the time where it goes but still being hungry and impatient for it to be continued the sooner the better.

"Fine" Carlos said and thinking about the way he should form the words he got lost in his story again.

When they were taken off of the wheel, the leader saying that others were still waiting for their first round when they already were over the tenth, Carlos and her accepted that they needed to leave so they headed to find something else to have fun with for the following hours of their date.

Holding hands and often changing kisses but still being polite enough considering that there were thousands of kids around and also those kids' parents who didn't really like to see couples going down on each other in front of their children, they slowly went through the entire park, using everything and spending the most of their money.

It'd got darker, and they noticed that there was nothing to be such a good fun as it was when they kissed. Standing against the huge big top's walls and lightly losing in a sloppy kiss more and more people got into the tent as the hour of the circus show start had gotten closer. They originally planned to watch the show, too, but then as they were making out heavily against the tent, somehow neither of them felt up to it anymore.

Carlos bit on her lip to keep her quiet, "should we skip the circus?"

She smirked, "you dare to?" rocking her hips against his and feeling Carlos' erection she asked.

"I-I'm not sure I dare but I want it" Carlos answered.

She licked her lips, "it's up to you Litos" she continued slowly rubbing herself against Carlos and he couldn't help but groaned at the contact.

"You were hesitating that much?" James interrupted Carlos as he just now got into the details of the conversation outside of the tent.

"Yes I was but she was so incredible" Carlos sighed.

Logan and James high-fived, "hot scene's coming now" Logan dragged the words.

"So she coaxed you? You were a chicken to give into it easily, huh?" James loved to tease his friend.

"She just wanted to see if I really wanted it, she wasn't pushy at all" Carlos said.

Carlos giving in crushed their lips together and shoved his tongue into her mouth wanting to be the dominant he even pushed her harder into the tent and groaned against her lips, "I dare."

Then with a heavy peck on her lips Carlos pulled back and grabbed her hand.

They were in Carlos' car within a few minutes. The black windows saved every moment only for them and assured both Carlos and his date that they can do whatever they want because nobody would see them.

"We didn't plan it like that though" Carlos added and then James and Logan said, "sure," looking at each other and grinning so hard that Carlos guessed it might hurt them.

They quickly got rid of their clothes and Carlos positioned himself between her legs. Biting his bottom lip he let himself to admire her for a moment while her legs hugged his waist tighter, impatiently waiting for Carlos to get into action. But Carlos wasn't like that. He bent down, her legs slid upper on his body embracing Carlos' back and heels digging into his skin they both groaned as their lower halves rubbed against each other. Carlos attacked her neck and kissed the flesh softly loving the taste of her.

His hands cupped her breasts, each one in one hand twisting the hard nipples but one leaving sooner than it could be enjoyable for her. She almost cried out for Carlos to get that hand back but then she noticed he withdrew only to wander lower and give her a much better pleasure between her legs. His finger found just the right rhythm. First he just circled around her clit with one, and then adding more he rubbed her up and down on her sex giggling into every each touch as he felt the wet proof of her need on his own skin She didn't lie when she said she would love it to happen; now Carlos was sure about that, if the entire day that they spent together didn't assure him enough.

Her skinny fingers grabbed Carlos' short hair as she tried to hold onto something meanwhile climbing up to her peak. Carlos just because he loved the way her tongue tasted on his, kissed her into her orgasm and swallowed a huge scream filled with his name when she finally came against the rough stroking moves of his palm.

"There.. uhm there was some foreplay, I wanted her to be all good, you know?" Carlos smiled awkwardly, "I .. uh I rubbed her till she came."

"So you made sure she'd go first. I'm sure she appreciated that" James again made a comment, Carlos didn't mind though; he needed a moment to gather his thoughts and to get a bit relaxed before continuing.

Carlos said grinning, "Well, yeah. I didn't want us just to get over it quickly, you know. Wanted it to be memorable." They all laughed and clinked their glasses of beers again taking a look at Kendall.

"He looks like he's not here at all." James said.

Kendall then spoke up surprising all of his friends. Putting down his book to his chest he said, "I'm here, dunno why though. This entire shit what you guys are doing is ridiculous."

"Then did why you agree into it, too?" Logan wanted to know.

Kendall himself didn't know it either, "dunno. Just wanted to keep an eye on you all, hoped I can make you guys stop it and you wouldn't fuck her up with this idiot thing."

"She's not like that, you know, she is still our Melanie." Carlos said.

"I know. For me she won't be that, whatever you guys are doing. But I'd rather stay out of it."

"Still don't get it why you are listening to us then." James again said in a chilly voice.

Kendall repositioning his book in front of his face said, "as I said to keep an eye on you."

"You won't dare it, will you?" James couldn't stop, not even when Logan already poked his sides with his foot and sent him the 'shut it off' look, "you'll lose instead."

"I'll see. None of your business anyway." Kendall said pretending as he would have already returned to his reading.

"Actually it is all of our businesses," Logan joined sensing that this time James was right, "but whatever. If he doesn't dare but we do, he lost and we won."

"Er…" Carlos chuckled, "we lost, too, if we gave in. Actually Melanie is the one winning."

"Yeah, true. But ah after we got something, too and let's admit, it's not that bad to lose against her." James laughed. Logan grinned, so did Carlos and they all heard Kendall letting out a quiet snort. He didn't like this thing at all, but never actually stopped them.

"Go on Carlos." James commanded.

The Latino nodded and continued telling details from what he remembered.

Carlos lifted his hand up to his face and licked off his fingers. She, seeing his fucking hot movement, bit on her lip and smirked.

Carlos then to prolong their activity buried his head into her chest and headed up to her lips from then whilst gently taking a hold on her thighs. His gentle hold became tighter, much stronger, it was hard for her to deal with it but on the other hand she enjoyed it. She didn't even think about stopping Carlos, he could have been rough as much as he wanted. Soon Carlos lifted her legs even higher and put them over his shoulder. Once they rose up into the air and hit the roof of the car Carlos reached her face and they kissed again.

To grow the pleasure Carlos began to slid up and down, and with that his entire body heated her underneath him, and also his neglected erection rubbed against her soaked wet folds teasing her just the right way what drove her crazy. Quiet curses and moans left their mouths, nails dug into each others' skin and hips rocked against one another as the temperature in the car elevated to a level where it seemed like it boiled the air around them. Drops of water ran down on the windows and the main part was still left.

"Hmm Carlos." she started to beg as the frustration grew in sync with the temperature.

"Yes?" he asked backing a bit off and leaning on the seat with both of his palms behind her.

"You said you dare, no more teasing, please." She stroked his chest and felt the position becoming a little bit tiring so she wanted to get into it the sooner the better.

Carlos tilted his head to the right and then reached aside for his pants only to fish in a pocket for a condom. After he got himself ready he managed to pick up the same pose they were in. Her legs over his shoulders, her hands squeezing into his strong arms which he used to lean on closely next to her body. Once they were settled and somewhat comfortable, he pushed into her with everything he had, their eyes didn't miss staring each other for a bare moment.

Her face mirrored she was surprised. As Carlos was fully inside her, she shut her eyelids and teeth painfully bit on her lips; she could hardly bear the fullness. Carlos had to admit that he loved the sight. Carlos gently withdrew after taking a short time of admiring the beauty under him. This action was escorted by a loud groan from Carlos. She was tight around him; she was hot and wet and squeezed him so bad. Not that he didn't like it, but he needed to hold himself back from taking it too rough as all of the sudden sensation ran through his body and gathered in his hard cock wanting to rule everything in him. He just barely began to slam back into her and she was moaning loudly, her voice filled out the tight space in the car, Carlos was sure if anybody was around they could hear her but it only motivated him so he pulled out of her and then shoved back in, always just a little bit harder and trying to get even deeper even if it was impossible after a certain point.

He just then realized how much he wanted it, and if he wasn't in such a big of a pleasure that he barely could keep the smooth pace, he'd have taken a minute to laugh at himself that he denied it at first.

She was literally shaking underneath him, she couldn't have said her own name at that moment, Carlos was blowing her mind away, and all what came out of her mouth were sweet moans and other incoherent words.

"So good, fuck." Carlos breathed taking little breaks between each word so he was able to groan out in pleasure.

His hands slid under her back so they crashed all the air out from between their bodies. Their chests sweated against one another and hard breaths landed on each others' neck, loud noises got free how hips slammed against hips and then one certain and yet weak voice cried out when Carlos apparently hit something in her.

He then worked even harder trying to reach that spot again so she'd get to her high before Carlos would lose it.

At a point it just happened as it was written. Carlos pushed her over the edge, he knew it from the way she lost all of her senses for a bare moment, how she screamed out his name, how her walls spasmed around him and how her nails dug deeper into his skin. There he knew it was free to go for him too, so shoving a few more times, panting her name into her ear, he rode his own orgasm out with her.

Tiredly pulling out of her and taking care of the condom he tried to catch his breath and winked over at her. How she laid across the seat being totally spent it was hard for her to even open her eyes and Carlos still loved the sight of her.

"Don't interrupt or I'm not sure I can finish it." Carlos pointed out and started again. "So we continued with some more kissing and then she once again reminded me that I already was in the middle of it so I should take it along, and after a few more kisses and touches and finding the perfect pose it just happened. I was in her, she was there underneath me, I could feel it was wow; I can't even describe how it felt, amazing. And her voice, saying my name, screaming my name, fuck, she didn't just said it, she literally screamed. Then some time, I don't know, I have no idea how long we were into it, she was right there and then I was gone too. I was as tired as a dog, I swear, it was way better than I have ever dared to think it would be." Carlos breathed out relieved that he finished telling it. It was way more awkward to watch his friends' faces and talking than he guessed at first.

"Shit." James said not expecting so many details as many as was added by Carlos. James actually couldn't wait it to be Sunday, his day. It seemed to be too far from today.

Logan, trying to joke with him and to cover his own excitement which came to him only by listening Carlos telling the story just blocked in and not exactly the way he remembered, he punched James in the arm, "you got excited much huh?"

"Shut up Logan" James hit him with a pillow, "you know you're in the same boat. Fucking with me doesn't help on your problem."

This time James and Logan were the ones fighting and Carlos laughed at them sensing they sometimes really were acting like kids. But it was good that way. The thing worrying him was Kendall not reacting on the story at all.

"You guys finished telling porn stories for today?" Kendall asked and sat up to break James and Logan apart.

"Yes, for today there is nothing more to say." Carlos said.

James raised an eyebrow, "wait, how did you guys not come home afterwards? Thought she'd stay for the night."

"James that's not important." Logan answered for Carlos.

"Hey, who knows if it was only the beginning and they continued here, somewhere on one of the couches or whatever?"

Logan turned with curiosity to Carlos, "was it that way?"

Carlos laughing shook his head, "no idiots. She had some plans and if she didn't have I would have said to separate for the rest of the day. I know she wouldn't want to sleep here with me. It was fine. We did what we did and then it's over. It was a one time thing, don't you guys remember?"

"Well," James wanted to begin but Kendall standing up interrupted him.

"Where are you going?"

"Logan, I'm going home. I'm tired of this." Kendall answered looking for his jacket and car keys.

"Wait," Logan stood up, "drop me at home, I drank too much, I can't drive. Just give one more minute."

"Fine." Kendall sighed and waited for the guys to stop the show.

"So where we stopped." James cleared his throat, "We never said that it mustn't lead anywhere. If she wants more dates with any of us we would do it, wouldn't we? I mean if she realizes that she has a crush on someone of the group and it would get clear that for one of us it means more than it originally seemed it would, then the chance is open, right?"

Kendall felt like it was the time to stop them. James was talking like he had a crush on Melanie, and wanted to know if after this game he'd have a chance yet, "okay, guys shut it." He stepped back to the trio and pulled Logan off the floor.

"Nah wait Kendall. We need to talk it out." Logan challenged and broke out of Kendall's grip only to fall back to the floor.

"Fine, I'M LEAVING." The blonde yelled and the door loudly slammed behind him.

Carlos frowned at James, "James why the fuck did you just say that?"

"Can't you see what I see? How frustrated he just got? He's fucking into her but he is so a chicken to tell us to stop."

"Actually he said it, not once and not only tonight. From the very first moment, he protested against it." Logan said in defense of Kendall and Carlos nodded signaling that he agreed with him.

"That's why we have to do it." James raised his glass to the air.

Both Logan and Carlos let out a heavy sigh but eventually they knew what everything was for so they decided to not back off only in the beginning.

Kendall made his way back to his own apartment and he couldn't stop thinking about the night where everything had started, all that craziness what his best friends were doing right now.

"Okay, Melanie, truth or dare?" James asked as the glass stopped spinning and pointed at her.

It was a long week for all of the guys and also for Melanie, so they decided to do a little hang night on Saturday as they usually did when they all were free.

They had known each other for years, they were still teenagers when a friend introduced Melanie to the guys and since then a bond came into existence between the guys and her, which only had got stronger with every day passing.

So it was natural for them to goof around and go to parties together or to do private parties for themselves. There were no boundaries and awkward questions; they went as easily as only best friends could.

"Truth" Melanie answered quickly sipping some of her beer.

James was thinking for a moment, at least pretended as he was thinking but there was something he wanted to know for a while now, he just didn't find the right time and place to ask it. What could be more perfect time and place than this? He thought finally and spat out the question, "would you ever sleep with any of us?"

Kendall almost chocked by the drink he was just then swallowing but when he heard the answer of the girl it was even worse. He was literally chocking there on the floor when she announced on a sure and high voice, "yes I would."

They all went to get Kendall back into life, patting his back roughly James said, "what's up buddy? Did you imagine her going down on you, huh?"

James didn't know that Kendall wasn't that drunk as they all may have been and he absolutely didn't expect the fist into his face. Logan held Kendall back from attacking James again, "calm down, hey, he's just joking."

Carlos was on James' side trying to help him sit up again and checking if Kendall broke James' nose or not. Fortunately he didn't. James was fine, not counting the blur in his head but that rather was caused by the drinks than Kendall's fist.

Melanie, getting her senses back after the shock which Kendall's sudden action had caused, and seeing that everyone was calmed quietly noted, "I guess here's the time to call it a night."

"Good point." Logan said and climbed up to the couch.

Carlos helped James up and laid him onto the other couch then he settled down in an armchair. Melanie looked at Kendall who seemed like being satisfied enough with the floor for the rest of the night, so she took the other armchair and pulling a blanket over her body she was off in that minute.

The next morning they all woke up with headaches but everyone clearly remembered every details of the night. They cleaned up together in silence and then made breakfast the same way, sharing the job as they did it with the cleaning part earlier.

The light taps of forks hitting against plates were the only noises in the entire house as they were eating their eggs and drinking the liquid Carlos made from a secret family recipe for hangover. Though it was disgusting they swallowed the sips of it knowing it always helped. The first sips always went down with grins on their faces but in the same time they already felt its good effect so somehow they drank it all.

They tossed everything into the dishwasher and then sat down in the living room. The TV was on, nobody could have answered if anybody asked who turned it on, and two hours later after sitting there in death silence their heads were clear from the last night. Carlos' usual magic drink was done with its job.

"I was thinking," James spoke up first of course, "Melanie, did you think that seriously?"

She was sitting in the same armchair she was sleeping in at night, opposite her were Logan and on the couch Carlos between James on his right and Kendall on his left.

Since she woke up there was something she was thinking about, she was thinking about it for longer actually, she just wasn't sure she should do it. But with James bringing it up and feeling that James was really curious and opened to do anything she'd allow him to, she got her courage to put her plan into action even if she already was about to forget it and delete everything she wanted to do.

"Yes." She said and eyed the guys in the room.

"Okay." James said.

Her mind was too deeply into it, she needed to come up with it, it was aching to come out, she felt like she would explode anytime soon if she doesn't let it out, "do you guys wanna continue the game?"

"What?" Carlos and Logan asked in unison.

"You guys got wasted too early and I've never got to ask or dare you, any of you." She explained and it seemed as a realistic argument.

"Fair enough." Logan slid down on the armchair, "go ahead then if you guys are in too."

James shrugged, as well as Carlos. Melanie turned to Kendall for answer, "Kendall?"

"Sure." He said.

"Great. First a question and then a dare to everyone."

"Wait." Logan interrupted her, "can't we just choose one?"

"No, not now. If you hear the question and you give me your answer you can skip the dare, easy. Just listen okay?"

They all nodded and everyone looked straight into her face except Kendall who was playing with his fingers in his lap.

"So, the thing I want to know is related to the night's last question." she spoke and Kendall already felt sick by the thought of that subject being continued but he didn't speak a word. "James asked if I would ever sleep with any of you and I said I would. I don't deny it because you all are pretty much attractive guys, every girls' dream and stuff you know, I'm no different at all. So, I'm curious if you guys would ever sleep with me?"

James didn't hesitate and also wanted to be the first one answering, "yes of course" he giggled and raised a hand to be more persuasive. Kendall rolled his eyes as he heard the second answer coming from Logan, "I think yes, sure."

Carlos and Kendall left, she searched for eyes to look into but she only found Carlos' ones, "Carlos?"

"I'm scared of the dare." He said like he was reading in her mind and would have known the dare already. She chuckled, "don't be scared. It's just a game, would you answer me?"

"Yes." He said shortly.

"Yes what?" James was faster than Melanie, and lifted eyebrows at the Carlos sitting next to him.

Carlos felt eyes laying on him, he looked up when he said the final answer, "yes I would sleep with you Melanie."

James held a hand up for a high-five but no one seemed to join in his excitement, "guys it's just a game. No big deal. It's like when you're walking on the street seeing a hot chick and wondering if you ever could get her."

"James it's not exactly like that." Logan said.

"Not exactly like that but similar. And it's just a question. So Kendall, you haven't answered yet." The taller brunette turned to the blonde and hoped his fist would stay down this time.

Kendall, certainly not even trying to cover anything, searched for Melanie's eyes and said, "yes I would do it, too", he was never the person who ever could or wanted to lie to anyone so everybody knew he was saying the truth.

"Thank you all for telling me," she said, "are you guys ready for the dare?"

James was all excited and Logan couldn't hide his curiosity either. Last night, when James asked her, was already enough for Logan to imagine her in some hot situation with himself but now with everyone admitting that they all would do it too, he didn't feel ashamed about it anymore. Yes, if he could, he would sleep with her, so he was waiting for more. Knowing her was enough for everyone to expect something incredibly wild and yet awesome. Because that was Melanie, wild, awesome, funny, kind, smart and hot and everything a guy needed. Too bad that she was their best friend, almost as a sister to all of them so everything they were speaking about was just a part of a game between siblings. At least most of them guessed it was. For her it was way more.

Carlos was still feeling a little bit uncomfortable but he then reminded himself that it was Melanie playing with them, she wouldn't do anything too bad, not something to hurt each other or stuff, right? He hoped and pulled that half of his self out which kept him excited about the topic. She really was attractive and if he got the chance he'd take her to bed for sure.

The only one who still didn't seem like feeling the game was Kendall. He loved to challenge and protest against everything his best friends and brothers from other mothers wanted to get him into, and he could see with Melanie taking the lead, it only can turn out as something crazy. Something too crazy for him, for the always shy and loving Kendall it was already too much. And his feelings for her didn't help.

"I dare every each of you guys," she started after a long breath, "that you wouldn't sleep with me. Even if you say you would, you couldn't do it. You're all the loving and caring brothers of mine, whatever you think, you wouldn't do it, or would you?"

Carlos somehow felt this one coming. Sometimes he was smarter than people gave credit him for. James literally was shocked, not by the dare but the way she talked, it was so strange from her. He knew it had more into it; it wasn't that simple as it seemed at first sight. James knew her too well.

Logan's jaw dropped the floor, but his day dreaming about going down on her and her going down on him, got stronger; this time he was the one answering, "I accept the dare."

"Logan?" Carlos raised eyebrows, "do you know what you just said?" Logan nodded with a grin on his face and Carlos looked at Kendall who was shaking his head.

"You just agreed to … you just said you'd dare to …" he just couldn't finish the sentence.

"To sleep with Melanie." Kendall finished for him.

Logan smiled, "I know, I know but it would be fun. She doesn't believe that we would, that any of us would. Well I'm sure I would. She would lose it as fuck."

Melanie always loved Logan's attitude but she knew that Logan probably guessed that there was more to it than just a fuck and a game. He really did. As James, Logan too could see it in her eyes but he also knew unlike James, that he needs to go along with it to help her play the game.

"We'll see Logan, we'll see." She said, "Carlos, James, Kendall? What you say? Would you dare to prove me wrong?"

James still seeing the fun in the thing answered next, "I would too."

"Nice." She smiled at James appreciating that he only made it easier for her and then Melanie turned again to Carlos, "Litos? What you say? Come on, I know you want it; you just now said you do. Just give it a try and what is the worse that could happen? You would say I won and you lose because you don't dare to sleep with me as much as you want to."

"Fine. I accept it too." Carlos said seeing again that she was right. He wasn't forced into anything.

"Kendall?" everyone at once asked.

Kendall again unable to cover that he was as curious as the others and because he just wanted to know what it was all about now, "same. I accept your dare."

"Okay." She clasped quietly, "let's just clear the rules, okay?"

They all nodded.

"Every each of you, everyone gets a day with me. A date. You choose what you want to do, where you want to take me," she blushed as the guys chuckled, "yes I know it has got two meaning and I used it on purpose," she laughed, "so I just want to say, you rule, always in everything. I think you wouldn't do it, since we are almost like siblings, right? I don't know about more at least. So the deal is I dare you to prove that I'm wrong and you'd do it, even if we have some kind of sister-brother bond. Since from last night you know I wouldn't mind it happening, don't be shy if you feel up to do it, I'll like it for sure. I'd suggest you to tell the others what we were doing together. It's up to you guys what you believe and what you don't from what you hear from each other. I will know the answer and you will know it too, all of you. Since you all admitted that you'd like it to happen, I suggest a little thing I originally didn't plan here. The ones not daring to prove me wrong pay to the other ones who dare. So if James wouldn't be able to let his desires flying free on his day it would mean I was right about him and he should pay a certain amount of money to everyone else who has done it. Clear? It's not necessary, it's just an idea. So you guys have something else to do it for."

"You don't sound like you want to win, though." James winked.

She smirked, "who said I want to win? Well, what you think?"

"Five hundred bucks." Logan added.

James and Carlos frowned, "are you crazy?"

"No. if you do it you don't have to pay. If you don't do it you have to. Do it so you don't have to pay."

"But wait. What if I just .. what if I want it to happen as hell but I don't want to win. I let you win?" Carlos asked.

"If you guys want we can leave the thing with the money out. It really isn't necessary for the other thing." She said.

"Okay. I think the money really is not necessary if you look it your own point of view but if we look at it from each others. Just think about it. You knew you lost it against yourself if you don't do it and if none of us does it then everyone lost against Melanie and also against ourselves but if only one or two of us do it we would win against each other too, you get it?"

James starting to sense the meaning said, "yeah, he has a point. If you guys already chicken back I want you guys to pay for that, eventually you openly admitted you'd do it, if you don't do it then you have to pay."

"Carlos?"

"Melanie, I-I just I don't know." He stared at his clasped hands in his lap.

She got up from her seat and kneeled in front of Carlos. Logan and James giggled at the situation, she just laughed and with a wave of a hand she moved on to comfort Carlos. "Look, Litos. You don't have to do it. You can lie to these assholes here and you can be sure that I wouldn't tell anyone that we didn't do a thing. You shouldn't pay and I would win. Both of us would win something."

"I'm selfish and don't want you to win, but it's not a nice thing to do." He said and loved the feeling of her hands on his own.

She sighed, "we'll talk about it, okay?"

".. Fine" Carlos answered after a little pause. She kissed his hands and climbed back to her original seat.

Once she was settled she turned to Kendall, "Kendall again, you're the last one" she said.

"Whatever for me."

"Okay. So then, next Monday is Carlos', Wednesday is Logan's, Friday is Kendall's and Sunday is James'. The following Monday we meet up again."

"Wait." James spoke up. "Why am I the last one?"

"Just that's the way I want it to be. Okay?" She asked.

All of them nodded.

"Great!" Kendall said with sarcasm in his voice and lifted himself off the couch he was sitting on and with that earned wondering looks from all the guys and Melanie. "What?" the blonde asked while he was gathering his keys and other belongings. Like he didn't know what. They were planning to spend the entire weekend together watching movies and doing some fun in the pool but now Kendall was about to leave.

"We were about to stay here for the rest of the weekend." James said standing up.

Carlos and Logan both sent him the 'just leave him alone' look so James didn't ask more when Kendall announced, "I'm tired and need some normal sleep in my bed."

"Okay. Good bye then" Melanie quietly said and didn't really look at Kendall but in front of herself. "If you don't plan to come back tomorrow either, I remind you now, Monday is Carlos' which means you guys should meet sometime after our date is over. Either that night or the following day. Though on Tuesday I might be there, too."

Carlos added, "I'll call y'all and then when we can meet up."

"Okay, bye" Kendall said good bye again apparently he processed what just was told and with a heavy groan he was out of the house.

Whilst he was driving home from Carlos' after that meet up on Monday night he was wondering how it had gotten this far. He was madly in love with this girl who was their friend, as they always brought it up, she was their sister, and now with this game on, which was her idea anyway, he didn't know what to think. He didn't know her like this. She was always something different, unique; no one else was like her, and that was the thing grabbing Kendall's attention and now his image about her was all but upside down. Like she was a different person. From the things he heard from Carlos he thought she was, at least.

Because even if he was pretending like he didn't pay attention at all, he was in a huge focus on every word leaving Carlos' mouth. They had fun. That's okay. We all do have fun, together but then… they kissed and stuff. All the things, that she started it and that finally Carlos gave in and they did it, she let him.. it's just so unlike her. Kendall's mind couldn't stop guessing that Carlos must've talked about someone else. She's not like that but she was the one bringing up this game in the first place. Well James asked the first question and then… who knows what came over her.

He wanted to tell her that he loved her but he just couldn't find the right place and time. Every time he decided to finally get over with it there was something ruining his plans. The guys were always around and when he wanted to be alone with her it just didn't work, ever. They did everything together and if any of them mentioned going over to her and hanging, it dragged everyone going and having a really great time, all together.

She was working a lot, just like the guys and it happened that the following week they all would be free. Kendall thought it would be the perfect timing and somehow he could steal a few hours to himself with her, alone, but now when all this shit was up, he just didn't know how to even look at her, even less to admit that he loved her.

Kendall hated this game with all of his heart but he was in it already and since all the other guys went along he needed to do it too, just to keep an eye on them, really. Plus quietly to be noted here, he was way too curious for himself, and then we didn't even mention that he could get an entire day with her, on Friday. After Carlos and Logan. He didn't know though, what he'd want to do or say to her. If Carlos gave in, he was sure that Logan wouldn't hesitate a moment, if not for anything else but just to show that he wasn't a loser, that he dared to prove that he meant it when he said he'd sleep with her if the opportunity would arise. And James? James every time when she wasn't around but someone mentioned her, he got excited by the sound of her name. Sometimes he was a bigger flirt than Logan but he always respected Melanie and never even tried to get her, since they treated each other like siblings. What James felt was only the natural frustration and curiosity what a guy feels if he meets a girl who is actually his type.

But Kendall, he was in love. Even after he was forced to listen to Carlos lecturing about his date with her, Kendall loved Melanie. He remembered she was the person always being able to calm him down if he was way too nervous or was there if he was scared, because even if Kendall was grown man, he was scared sometimes. His best friends were there too of course, but it gave another, perfectly different vibe if all that support was coming from a girl. Even if they barely could spend five minutes alone, he knew she was everything he ever wished for, nothing would change that.

The thing what was annoying him, this was it, the feeling that there isn't a thing what would make her looking worse in Kendall's eyes. That wasn't right. If you feel that for someone, then you can't run away anytime soon.
