Chapter 3
"Shhh," I told Bible, "Go to sleep." I rubbed his belly and heard him start to snore gently. I tucked him in, and then went to go join Glee, who was waiting for me outside.
"Okay, lets do this," I said. Glee nodded.
Sunburst's dorm was very, I don't know…orange. Obviously. Everyone was already there, and Sunburst was sitting on her bed. The lights were dimmed, but bright enough so we could see each other.
"Why, Elina, Glee, how nice of you to join us!" Sunburst said with that fake tone in her voice. "Sit down!" Glee and I sat down across from each other on the carpet.
When I turned my head, I saw Linden sitting across from me beside Faben, leaning on the bed. He smiled when he saw me; hopefully he didn't notice the light blush that crept onto my cheeks.
"Kay," Sunburst put a bottle in the middle of our circle, and joined it. "I'll spin first." She spun the bottle and it pointed to Faben.
"Truth or dare, Faben?"
"Well," Faben thought, "Sine everybody is just dying to know how I got this gorgeous, I'll say truth."
Sunburst thought for a moment, then answered. "Fine, out of everyone in this room, who would you say is the hottest?"
"Hmm… I know no one is nearly as gorgeous as me, but let me think. I'll have to say Lumina, or maybe even… Elina."
My eyes widened as he said my name; it was shocking to hear that, and in front of Sunburst too. I saw her clench her teeth secretly narrow her eyes at me. No one had ever called me hot before; I was just Elina, nobody paid attention to me except to congratulate me on saving Fairytopia. But here was a cocky guy calling me hot.
Everyone's eyes were on me. Lumina they could understand, but not Elina. I caught Linden stealing a glance at Faben, then frowning. He didn't meet my eyes.
"Okay!" Sunburst broke the awkward silence. "Faben, your turn to spin!" He spun the bottle. It pointed to Shimmer.
"Shimmer, truth or dare?"
"Dare," she answered.
"Okay," Faben stated, "I dare you to…spy on Ruby in the bath." He smirked.
"No way! I am not doing that!" Shimmer yelled.
"Oh yes you, are unless…" He smirked at her again. Clearly Faben knew something we didn't. Either way, Shimmer tensed.
"Fine." She spun the bottle, this time, having it land on none other than Sunburst.
"Truth or dare?" Shimmer asked Sunburst.
"I'll have to say truth."
"Fine. What's the worst thing you've ever done?"
"Oh, some things are better left unsaid, Shimmer." Sunburst technically didn't answer the question, but no one said anything. She spun the bottle and it landed on…me.
"Elina," Sunburst grinned an evil grin. "I already have something for you. I dare you to kiss Linden. Go on, kiss him."
"What?" I asked. "You didn't even ask me if I wanted truth or dare!" I was blushing, but I don't think anyone noticed.
"I'm the one asking the questions, so I get to choose the question!" She yelled. "Now do it! Kiss him!"
"No," Linden and I both said at the same time.
"No, I'm not doing it." I refused to do it.
"Oh come on, it's not so bad." I looked at Linden and found him staring at me with a worried expression on his face.
I stood up. "I'm leaving." I said, "I don't want to have anything to do with this anymore."
Linden stood up too and walked over to stand by my side. "Same. I'm going with her."
I turned around to face him. I looked up at him and saw that he was red and his expression was serious.
Just then, I felt myself being pushed on to him, and before I knew it, my lips were on his. It was a short kiss because I pulled away quickly and found Sunburst laughing at me. She pushed me on to him.
I then turned around and flew as fast as I could from Sunburst's dorm.
"Elina, Elina wait!" Linden called after me. I didn't turn around. I could face him now, not after I just kissed him.
Sorry for not updating for a while. I had a bit of writers block. I know this chapter's wasn't that good, but I hope you liked it. Please review!
