Editor's Note: Sorry. What can I say, right after I began this story, work got hetic. I was working 6/7 nights a week for nearly a month. Than I transferred stores, I work day's now. I am much happier and have more time. I work 40 hours a week. Well after I got transferred, I had forgotten about this story. I was just remembered it a few day's ago. I lost all my idea's for this story. So, if I still have any readers left, I need a few ideas for stuff for them to do. I also have my poll up now. So please vote, I am open to ideas on all fronts.
So once again, I'm sorry. I should have not forgotten. Please forgive me and review, it makes me smile.
After my team won charades, Paul decided that was enough for the games. I guess Derek and my trash talking got to be too much for him. He decided to just let us roll with whatever we wanted to do. Most of the guys went over to one side of the room to play poker with a deck of cards that Ralph had. While most of the girls came over to my side of the room, to read the magazines Kendra had in her backpack.
"So Casey," Kendra said looking at me over her edition of Cosmo, "Why are you still single. I mean any guy would kill to date you."
"No one really interests me right now," I answered her; knowing that Kendra would get me to tell the truth right away, so why drag out the inevitable.
"Well, you should go out with Truman, he likes you and he's cute," Kendra said.
"Nah, he's to full of himself for my taste," I answered.
"I know you should totally go out with Tinker, I mean you both uber geeks, it makes perfect sense," Amy said in that voice. The one that I that sounds nice, but all you hear is: I am b*tch.
"No, I think she should give Noel a chance. He's much better suited for her," Emily said while glaring at Amy.
"Or maybe she should get back together with Sam. They were so cute together," Sally said.
"No, Sam and I just didn't work. Also I only like Noel as a friend, I don't think it would be fair to him if I dated him," I answered.
"Well, I'm bored. I going to go be Max's lucky charm," Amy said while getting up.
"Thank god. I know if we ignored her long enough she would just leave," Emily said.
"Ladies, why don't you come join us," Trevor yelled across the room.
"Yes, you must," Sheldon yelled right after him.
"Please don't. I don't want your bad luck rubbing off on me," Derek said.
"Ignore him, come on over," Sam said.
I looked over to Emily and Kendra. Kendra and Sally were already getting up, while Emily was silently pleading with me.
"Fine, I go play cards but you owe me," I whispered to Emily.
"I bring the chocolate on Sunday," Emily said.
"So what do you ladies want to play," Tinker said as he was shuffling the cards. Derek was about to open his mouth when Truman opened his, "May I suggest strip poker."
"First of all Paul is still in the room, second I do not want to see any of you naked," I answered him while fuming at the mere suggestion of it.
"Same goes for me," Derek said, "I do not want to have to pay for therapy after seeing Casey with her clothes off." Everyone, including me just turned to look at Derek, who promptly turned beet red after he realized what came out of his mouth, "I say we play bullsh*t. That game was made to play in a large crowd."
"I don't like that game, I think I'm going to sit this one out. Go read a book or something," Sheldon said, while getting up to move to the other side of the room.
"Me, too," Emily said. Great, she ditches me to go make-out.
"Um, Amy and me to," Max said.
"I have a project I need to work on," Tinker said as he went over to his backpack, after handing the cards over to Derek.
"Crap, I'm in the same class with him and forgot about my project. I need to start it, if I don't want to fail," Noel said while rushing over to his stuff.
"And on that note, I have scholarship applications I have to fill out. I did not plan on getting stuck so, off I go," Sally said to Derek while shaking her head when he opened his mouth to argue.
"I don't know how to play," Kendra said with a pout on her face. I don't know if she really doesn't know how to play, or if she just acting to try to flirt with Derek.
"It's easy. We divide the deck of cards in-between us; which would be seven or eight cards apiece, depending on who the four to the left of me are. The person to the left of me, Sam, kicks the game off, with aces. Then it's two's, three's, and so on. Now you have to go in order. You can out down as many cards as you like saying the amount and what your number is. Example: Sam puts down 2 cards, he says two aces. In reality he put down an ace and a seven. If anyone thinks he is lying they call bullsh*t, if not we move one. You can only call bullsh*t if the next hand has not been played. Now let's say I called bullsh*t Sam would have to turn over his cards, since he did lie he would have to take the whole pile. Now if I called it and he was telling the truth, I would have to take the whole pile. First one to lose their entire hand wins."
"That sounds like fun," Kendra said while smiling at Derek, okay acting it is.
"Derek how about you deal the cards now," I asked impatient for the game to begin.
"Really reeling to lose, uhh Case," Derek said while smirking at me.
"I think you will be pleasantly surprised by my abilities in this particular game," I said smirking right back.
"Say's the girl who cannot lie," Derek said in after snorting.
"Just deal," I said. Let him be shocked. I always won at my old school. No one was able to beat me, and I would be d*mned before Derek did.
