A/N: This fanfic takes place during the time the brawlers are hiding out at Marucho's house from the Vexos. This is in the brawlers p.o.v, but Dr. Clay is working on his "experiment " at the same time. Thank you's go out to the people who reviewed, I loved hearing your comments.

The brawlers were ,at the moment, sitting at Marucho's very long dining table, eating supper. All of them were eating quietly, only Dan and his noisy eating habits breaking the silence. They were quiet (expect Dan) because they simply had nothing to talk about. They had been at Marucho's for a week now. The first spent listening to what had happened since they last seen each other and catching up on sleep. The other days they showed Mira, Ace, and Baron all the best movies earth had to offer and training.

All of a sudden Dan stopped eating (nearly choking too!) and paled as the strangest sense of pain came over him. Beside him Runo did the same, her arms wrapping around her stomach as she did so.

Alice, who noticed first, asked concerned, "Dan, Runo what's wrong?"

They took a minute, then replied together. "I don't know, I just ... felted different." They glanced over at each other, the smallest hint of red rising to their checks.

Of course Maria took notice to this and thought "Ooh, they do like each other! Julie was right!" With nothing else planned for tonight Maria decided Dan and Runo were too stubborn to ask each other out, so she needed to take the role as matchmaker. The others definitely needed her help too. Maria spent the rest of supper taking note to things such as, who was sneaking glances at who and who was playing footies under the table. By the end of supper, she had her victims paired up and on a list she wrote on her napkin. It read: Dan luvs Runo, Alice luvs Shun , Julie luvs Billy and Ace luvs Mira.

Maria stood up on her chair and declaired loudly "Everyone! We are playing Truth or Dare in Marucho's living room now. No if's, and's , so's or but's." she added sternly, as Shun opened his mouth to objet.

IN MARUCHO'S LIVING ROOM- RUNO'S P.O.V

"Maria is planning something."Runo thought."I don't exactly love that sly grin she has plastered on her face right now."

"Alright, let's get started. Who wants to go first?"asked Julie.

"Does everyone know how to play?" Marucho asked, looking over at the 3 Vestales.

"Of course" Ace replied."I'll go first." Maria had been talking to Ace just before they entered the room and they only thing I had hear was "I need you to dare...". I hope they weren't talking about me. Because I'm almost sure we were all headed down embarrassing moments lane.

"Shun, truth or dare?" Ace was smirking.

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss Alice, on the lips." Shun gave Alice a peck on the lips. Alice turned red from head to toe, even and Strong was blushing a bit. Wow a miracle, a first ever for Shun, he actually was BLUSHING.

Dan, who of course couldn't contain himself shouted "Shun, way to go buddy!" You know sometimes I wonder about what I see in him. Shun then asked Julie who she liked and Julie replied "Billy", who wasn't here at the moment.

As I was looking around I noticed Maria whispering into Julie's ear. Then they looked at me, then Dan, with their faces pulled up into smirks. Now I was worried. It was Julie's turn and me and Dan were apparently their next victims. They both knew how much I liked Dan and I guess they were going to try and make me show it, by either having me tell him or kiss him. And truth be told I wanted to go nether... well, at least not in front of everyone.

"Dan, truth or dare?" Julie said, like she was about to cause a miracle.

"Dare." Dan replied. By this point I wasn't sure whether my face was drained of all colour or if I was blushing.

"Dan, I dare you to..."

A/N: If you would like to review and give me your opinion on what Julie should dare Dan, I would love to hear your opinions. I'm fine with constructive complaints, but please nothing that will make me cry.
