Okay I'm back! I would like point out that some of my dares are going to be different from the original version because they were revolved around relationships and I want to tone the romance majorly and just make this mostly a Humor story with a side of Romance, do you get what I'm saying? Of course I'll have some of the old dares because they are part of the somewhat visible plot, which I'm still trying to figure out what it is, so they will still be there, like for example in the last chapter I kept the lap dare because it helped boost their relationship and as I explained in the last chapter why I added the small fight to keep that one scene. So anyway, sorry for my long author's note but I'm going to keep doing them to explain what I'm changing throughout the story and why.
Again, I would like to say I'm sorry for those of you who liked those relationship-centered dares and all the teasing and all that crap, but I'm going to be removing a lot of that.

"Okay my turn." Sinead declared as she sat down, wiping her lips with her hand, "Ned, Truth or Dare?"
Her brother looked at her, "I guess I'll do a dare." He said, shrugging.
Sinead nodded and thought for a minute. She went over all the facts she knew about her brother, analyzed them and broke them down. She knew he was slightly scared of the younger Kabra's wrath and thought that Amy's younger brother was funny and came up with a plan, or should we call it, a dare.
"I dare you to do a spit take aimed at Dan and Natalie." Sinead said, pointing at the two kids who were as of right now, glaring at each other. They stopped glaring at each other and looked at Sinead when they heard their names.
"What, I heard my name." Dan said, suddenly aware of the other people around him.
"Yes, what do you want?" Natalie agreed with Dan for once in her life, though she wouldn't admit it. Sinead just shrugged in a 'Wait and see' motion and they watched as Ned got up and got a glass of water from the counter and brought it back to his spot. He then brought it to his lips and took a whole mouthful and then…
Spit it out at the surprised children.
"Aw gross, what did I ever do to you?" Dan cried, wiping the water from his eyes. Natalie was still sitting there; mouth pursed close, eyes squeezed tightly closed, dripping with water. The whole room was tensely waiting to see Natalie's reaction while stifling their bubbling laughter.
"Ned, I am covered. In. Water." She said slowly and deadly calm. "Why, am I covered. In. Water?" She asked, still seeming calm.
Ned gulped and replied, "I was dared to do that." He said in a small voice. Natalie brushed her hands over her eyes and opened them, letting everyone see the raging fury in them.
"You were daredto? Who the heck daredyou to spit water at me and more importantly, whythebloodyhelldidyoudoit?" She screeched, jumping up and glaring at him murderously. Ned shrank back and gulped once more.
"I'm sorry?" He squeaked, but it came out more of a question. Natalie growled and began to search for her dart gun. Hamilton saw it lying on the couch and dove to get it. Natalie looked at him and held her hand out.
"Hamilton, give me the gun." She said darkly. He just shook his head and sat back down in his spot.
"Nope, I owe Ned something after the Franklin Institution explosion and I'm sure saving him from death by your hand is going to count." Hamilton said, smirking. Natalie growled and stomped over to him. She grabbed his wrist and pulled him up and tried to get the dart gun but he just held up high and watched in amusement as she tried to jump up and reach it.
At this point everyone had just given up on hiding their laughter and was full out roaring with laughter. Amy stirred from her sleep, and looked around and took in what was around her. Natalie, drenched, was jumping up and down for her dart gun which was held high by Hamilton, who in turn was looking at her with amusement. Ian was laughing, which she had to admit was a nice sound, clutching her waist even tighter from it. Dan was drenched as well, but laughing nevertheless, as well was everyone except Ned who was pale from fear.
Amy giggled at the sight of her brother and Natalie. Everyone continued to laugh for a while. Natalie finally huffed and sat down, arms crossed. A piece of hair landed in her face and she blew it away. Hamilton smirked in victory and sat down, the dart gun in his hand just in case. Everyone else calmed down and Dan went to get some towels. He returned and threw one at Natalie and nailed her straight in the eye.
"Dan!" She said loudly, not exactly yelling yet.
"What?" He asked innocently. She just rolled her eyes but dried herself off while grumbling about how the towel wasn't 100% Egyptian cotton and silk.
"Well, it's my turn. Ian, truth or dare?" Ned asked, looking at Ian, who was an interesting shade of red because he and Amy had seen their position.
"Dare." He said shakily.
"I dare you to go make me a sandwich!" Ned said proudly. Everyone stared at him in shock, "What?" He asked confused?
"What kind of dare is that?" Ian asked incredulously.
"Would you rather I give you an embarrassing one?" Ned asked darkly. Ian grumbled and went off to make the sandwich.
"Oh and bring Amy with you!" Ned called after Ian. He threw his head back and groaned but offered a hand to Amy who watched Ian amused. He looked down at her as if to say, 'Well?'She sighed and took his hand and helped her up. They walked into the kitchen and then Amy backed out and into the living room.
"Wait, what do you want in the sandwich?" She asked, leaning on the doorframe.
Ned thought for a minute before replying, "Chicken, tomatoes, lettuce and jalapenos." He said. Just then Sinead smacked the back of his head, "Ow! What was that for?" He said, rubbing the back of his head.
"That was for saying a stupid dare and getting tomatoes." She said stiffly.
"What's wrong with tomatoes?" Ned asked.
"Everything!" Sinead said.
"Guys back on topic." Ted said calmly. Ned and Sinead huffed but stopped wrangling.
"Okay can I go since Amy and Ian are making Ned's sandwich?" Dan asked hopefully. No one saw anything wrong with this so they shrugged and Dan rubbed his hands together while laughing evilly.
"I'm suddenly scared." Hamilton said, looking at Dan with a weirded out expression.
"I know and Holts are never scared." Madison whispered back.
"Okay Madison truth or dare?" Dan said a giddy glint in his green eyes.
"Um dare?" She asked uncertainly. He smiled widely with a twinge of an evil smile mixed in.
"I dare you to. . . eat half of Ned's sandwich without any water!" Dan exclaimed pointing at Madison. Madison paled; everyone knew that the Holts couldn't stomach spicy things very well. Just then Amy and Ian came in with the sandwich.
"Dan stop pointing, it's not polite." Amy scolded lightly, handing Ned his sandwich. Dan pouted but lowered his finger but he smiled once he remembered his dare.
"Well? What are you waiting for? Eat the sandwhihc!" Dan hustled.
Ned frowned, "Do I have to give up half my sandwich?" He said sadly, looking longingly at his sandwich.
"What's going on here?" Ian asked confused. Reagan quickly filled them in and Ian smirked and Amy giggled.
"Well this ought to be interesting." Ian said, looking amused.
Madison glared at him but took the sandwich anyway. She looked nervously at the sandwich then took a bite of it, trying to keep up her tough character. Immediately her eyes bulged as the spicy jalapenos exploded in her mouth. Her mouth turned an alarming shade of red as she tried to grab some water.
Unfortunately, no one let her have some.
"Give me some water you wimp!" She screamed at her brother who held the water high up, much like he did to Natalie, looking very amused. Everyone else was once again rolling on the ground laughing. This went on for about ten more minutes until Madison finally ate her half of the sandwich. She finally gave up and tackled Hamilton to the floor. She grabbed the water bottle and gulped it down.
Slowly her face returned to its normal color as she ran to get another bottle.
"Well okay then, my turn." Ian announced, "Natalie truth or dare?" He asked.
"Well since I'm in no mood for your dares, I'll take a truth." She said bored.
"Well then would you mind explaining this diary entry I found in your diary last week?" He said, pulling out a purple (AN: Pink is way overused for Natalie) fuzzy diary with a green feather pen attached to it and a gold cursive 'N' on the cover. Natalie's eyes widened as she recognized the book in her brother's hands.
"How did you get that?" She asked shakily.
Ian smirked, "Natalie, you must learn to take shorter showers, Father gets impatient." He said a knowing look in his eye, "Now let me read the entry." HE said, smiling. Natalie made a futile attempt to grab the book but he just ran out of the way and began to read.
"DearDiary,
That Cahill brat is terribly annoying. I swear he's out to annoy me till I die. Today he came up to me with one of those ridiculous ninja toys he has and kept bugging me to play with him because his sister refused to play with him (That's probably the smartest thing that color blind hobo has ever made)-"
At this point Amy spoke up, "Offense!" She cried but Ian just shushed her and continued to read.
.ThenwhenIrefusedhestuckhistongueoutatmeandthenbegantocallmechildishnames.Imeanhowimmaturecanheget?He'snineforcryingoutloud!Iadmithe'sateensybitcute,justatinybit.ImeanIsupposedhisgreeneyesaresomewhatattractiveandhishairisnice...butit'scompletelymessy!Hasheeverheardofacomb?" Ian finished. Natalie shrieked and stomped off.
"But Natalie dearest, you didn't answer the question!" Ian called after her.
In return she yelled, "Yeah Ian, that'll happen!" Ian ran off after her. Amy toppled off his lap and fell down on the floor with an 'oomph!'
"Sorry love!" Ian called as he chased after his sister who moved with a surprising amount of agility and speed.
"What did I say about calling me love?" Amy huffed, dusting herself off.
"That you absolutely love it! That it gives you shivers up your spine! That it turns you into a puddle of mush!" Ian said dramatically while pushing a struggling Natalie back into the circle.
Amy glared at him and threw a pillow at him, nailing him in the eye, "I did not say that! I told you to stop calling me that!" She yelled. She looked at Dan for support but then realized he, along with Madison and Ted were still laughing from Natalie's diary entry.
"Dan stop laughing unless you want me to read your diary entry!" Amy snapped. Dan stopped laughing and paled.
"You wouldn't." He said, scared.
"Oh you know I would." She challenged. He gulped and shut up.
"So Natalie you picked truth, now you must answer the question." Ian said victoriously.
Natalie sighed, "Fine! I wrote that because. . ."
Mwahaha! Cliffie! I feel wonderfully evil! I want ten reviews before I update!
Now I got a few reviews saying how I should've kept the old one up. So I'm putting up a poll on my profile to say if I should put the old one up again. Though since I've lost the first chapter of the original version I'll try my best to re-write it so it was similar to the original version. If you can offer me any help with that, say with your favorite parts of the first chapter just PM and I'll give you a virtual taco!
I'll also fix the grammar and spelling mistakes in the original version. I won't be changing anything else.
Also, super sorry for the long time I haven't updated! School just started and I'm swamped with work. I would've done it during summer but I didn't for some reason so now I'm paying for my laziness. I still won't be able to update often, I might get time to write on the weekends so expect update maybe every few weeks? But I'm trying!
