I felt my body being tugged and shoved. I panicked, trying to scream out but the grasp over my mouth was far too tight.
I heard faint giggling as I fell backwards behind a hedge and the blindfold was ripped from eyes, still leaving a faint black shape, covering my sight.
"Oh my god, you should've seen his face!" I heard a loud, familiar voice, laughing.
A tear rolled down my cheek as I tried to get my sight back to see the kidnappers.
"Judd, Bourne?!" I cried, angrily.
Harry suddenly stopped laughing as I looked like I was about to punch him.
James however, was still laughing, sitting next to a quiet Danny, a sorry look on his face.
"You've obviously drunk so we just thought it would be funny to fake – kidnap you!" Harry laughed.
"Thanks, you bastards – I've now broken my phone!" I wailed.
"Poynter, relax! I'll just get you another one!" James – the – richest – kid – in – England said.
I scowled at him and went to get up but I felt myself being shoved back down by Harry.
"Stay, Poynter. We were all playing a little game of truth or dare before we saw you stumbling along." Harry said, a glint in his eye.
I rolled my eyes. I guess it would be better than going back to that Lola girl.
"Fine" I muttered, and before I knew it there were bottles of alcohol being passed round.
XO-XO
About an hour later and a lot of dares have been happening. Thank god none of them were that bad... James was dared to eat a slug and Harry had to piss in a beer bottle and Danny had to drink it. Mine weren't as bad as that though!
"Eat a handful of ants!" Harry said to James, who reluctantly scooped some up off the ground and swallowed them quickly before gagging.
I don't think I would've done any of the dares if I hadn't had a bit to drink!
"Poynter, Harry!" James slurred. "You two pretend you're dating!"
"What?!" Harry spat out his beer.
I sat there awkwardly looking at James who had a grin on his face.
"No thanks" I muttered.
"Come on! What if there was something in it for you?" He grinned.
"Go on..." I smiled.
"Well – you know how rich I am...how about £1,000 every week?"
"Wow..." I gasped.
"Ugh fine!" Harry said.
"Sure, how long?" I asked, uncertainly.
"How ever long it takes" James said simply.
"How long it takes for wha-"
"Remember this is a game, nothing else yeah, Poynter?" Harry spat, interrupting my question.
"Fine, Judd!" I glared at him.
"Starts from today." James smiled.
"Oh and you have to make friends, family, classmates, whatever believe you!" Danny said whilst James high-fived him.
I sighed. "Fine then."
"Come on Dan." James said, standing up. "Let's leave the lovebirds to their little game."
Danny got up and they both walked off back inside.
I sat there awkwardly, trying not to look at Harry.
He turned to face me. "Guess it wouldn't be that hard you, Poynter. Especially as I know your little secret." He winked at me.
I gulped. I think this is gonna be harder than I thought.
I stood up and held out a hand for him. He looked at my hand confusingly then grabbed it to hurl himself up.
"So – er what do we do?" I asked quietly.
"Just hold hands inside first!" James popped up from behind a bush, making me jump.
"God Bourne. I thought you went inside!" I said.
"Yeah we changed our minds" He smiled, pulling Danny up next to him.
I felt so awkward having to hold Harry's hand and act like he's my boyfriend.
"Wait – what do I do about Izzy?!" Harry suddenly asked about his girlfriend.
"Ugh...break up with her." James said whilst Danny nodded.
"But..."
"Look mate, it's only temporary!"
"Okay." Harry agreed.
"Go on you two!" James grinned pushing us together.
"Ready?" He asked.
I nodded as he took my now clammy hand. The touch felt so awkward.
"We'll be near you, watching." James said, grinning.
Harry scowled at them.
"Okay, smile and look in love!" James came over and removed our hands. He put Harry's arm to go round my neck and rest on my shoulder and put my arm around his waist. It felt quite uncomfortable until Harry told me to put my head on his shoulder.
"See you inside!" Danny smiled as they ran off.
Harry and I walked over to the doors, lingering outside.
"Just think of cats or something to make you smile." I said to him.
"Is that what you do, think of cats?" Harry giggled.
I frowned. "No..."
"You do!" He laughed.
I smiled faintly as we slowly pushed the double doors open.
A/N: Sorry for it being a short chapter – I just wanted to leave it there ;)
