Chap. 9 : In A Room

The groupie sat beside each other, forming a circle.

" Right. So I'll start first since I suggested this game." Smirked Hilary as everyone frowned. Whenever Hilary smirked, bad things were about to happen.

Carol bit her lip nervously. Kai hold her hand tightly, looking at Carol as she smiled.

" Right, Ray ! Truth or dare ?" asked Hilary as Carol sighed with relief.

" I choose … truth." He replied finally.

" Tell me Ray, have you ever been mad or had a quarrel with Mariah ?" smirked Hilary.

" Uhhh … yes." Said Ray quietly.

" Ooh." Said Mariam.

" Well, we were young then." Retorted a blushing Ray.

" Yeah, like we believe in that story." Said Hilary sarcastically.

" Anyway, Hiro, truth or dare ?" asked Ray.

After much consideration, Hiro decided to pick truth.

" Hiro, tell me when did you start to like Anna ?" grinned Ray as Hiro blushed slightly.

" Since we met at the library." He replied quietly as Tala, Tyson and Max chorused ' Love at first sight' that annoyed Hiro slightly.

" Tyson, Truth or dare ?" smiled Hiro.

" Dare." Replied Tyson confidently.

" I dare you to eat nothing but bread for a week."

Tyson's face widened with shock. " NO !" he shrieked in a girly tone that made everyone rolled with laughter.

As soon as Tyson regain his clarity, he began to pick a person.
" Tala, truth or dare ?" he smiled, smugly.

" Dare." Replied Tala confidently.

" I dare you to …" said Tyson as his voice trailed off. " KISS DENISE !" he yelled as Tala's eyes widened.

" WHAT ?" yelled the red haired male, shocked.

" It's a dare." Said Tyson in a sing-song tone.

Slowly, the red-haired male slid closer to a blushing female whose head was down. Quickly, Tala gave her a peck on the cheek as Denise blushed.

" AWWWW …" said Mariam, Mariah and Hilary as the boys sniggered. ( Except for Kai of course )

" Anyway, Tyson, truth or dare." Sniggered Tala.

Tyson gulped. " Uhh, dare."

" I dare you to give Max CANDY !" laughed Tala as Mariam gasped.

Once Max got candy, he went all hyper again. " CANDIE ! LOLIPOPS ! PIXIE STIXS ! SHERBET LEMONS !" exclaimed Max as he ran in circles around the room.

A vein popped from the girls' temple as they towered Tyson who was trembling.

" TYSON …" said Hilary darkly.

" Are you …" said Mariam, her left eyebrows twitching.

" Mercy ! Please ? Don't blame me ! Blame Tala !" retorted Tyson as Carol clenched her fists.

" Crazy ?" continued Mariam.

Now Tyson was scarred. Even Mariah was angry. And it really scarred the shit out of him. He gulped, knowing that he wasn't in a pleasant situation.

-

" That was fast." Commented Denise.

" His expression was priceless !" giggled Mariah.

The groupie was once again, continuing playing their game. Tyson was so scarred that he wetted his pants. Everyone laughed loudly and Tyson was damn embarrassed.

" It's not funny." Frowned Tyson. " Kai, truth or dare ?"

" Kai, truth or dare ?"

" Truth."

" Tell us what happened when you guys were alone at the hall." Smirked Tyson as everyone's faces lit up.

" Nothing." Lied Kai.

" You sure ? We heard screams from that room." Said Mariam.

" Nothing happened to us." Said Kai firmly.

" We know you're lying. Therefore, you'll have a punishment." Smirked Tyson as Hilary whispered something in his ear. Now that caught Kai and Carol's attention.

" Kai, your punishment is to kiss Carol." Smirked Tyson as Kai sighed.

" And lip to lip until we say stop. And since we're so good, we'll give you some privacy. " said Mariam when Kai kissed Carol lightly on the forehead which made Carol blush scarlet red. Tala and Tyson pushed the couple into a room and locked the door.

Slowly, Kai moved closer towards Carol, Carol panicked.

" Don't care about them. This is our own world now." Whispered Kai as Carol smiled slightly for five seconds until… slowly, their lips met as they shared a passionate kiss. The others watched this with interest.

" Wow. I admire this guy. Carol changed so much just because of him." Mumbled Denise as Tala pulled her closer for a warm hug. " Do you think this Kai will hurt ? Because Carol is quite sensitive to boys."

" Don't worry. Kai's one responsible man." Assured Kenny.

" I think the plan worked." Said Mariah suddenly.

" What plan ?" asked Anna with interest.

" Well, we weren't really sure if Kai really has a thing or two for Carol in the past but now, it's revealed." Smiled Hilary.

" Hey ! Don't forget about them ! They'll suffocate !" said Hiro.

" Don't worry. They'll stop themselves. " Said Max.

" You mean this was actually a set up ?" asked Ray.

" Yup. Just to get them together." Smirked Tala.

" C'mon ! To celebrate, who's up for hot chocolate before continuing the game ?" asked Mariah as everyone cheered.

-

As soon as the couple broke apart for air. Carol bit her lip nervously and blushed crimson red. She looked up only to see Kai's face darken, which meant that something was wrong. Carol gulped. Without warning, Kai pulled Carol in for a tight embrace. Carol stared at him and blushed deeper.

"Just let me hug you." he said quietly but Carol felt that a hint of pain was in there too. Without hesitation, Carol returned to hug and smiled.

" Hey guys ! Time to come out ! Romantic sessions are over !" announced Mariam, knocking on the door as they broke the hug. Carol blushed.

" Had fun ?" asked Tala as Kai glared at him.

" Watch your tongue Ivanov." He warned.

" What did you guys do besides making out ?" asked the girls with interest.

" Shut your mouth." Glared Carol.

" Ahem." Said Kenny as Anna and Hiro faked a cough.

" Whatever they do is none of our business and it's personal." Frowned Anna.

" And I suggest that we keep on playing the game or we'll just discuss who sleeps with whom." Said Hiro.

" Good point Hiro. We'll decide on that first since it's …" said Hilary as she checked her watch. " Wow. It's already half past nine."

" Right. Everyone pick your roommate."

( You guys know that who sleeps with whom and Kenny is sharing a Tyson and Hilary. )

" Okay so … where are we sleeping ?" asked Tala.

" Hmmm … It'll be the same. Ray and Mariah in a room, Max and Mariam another room and Kenny, Tyson and me in another room. As for the guests, it'll be the hall." Said Hilary as everyone nodded and went towards different directions.

-

" Kai, I feel weird having to share a blanket with you." Said Carol uneasily as Kai chuckled softly.

" C'mon Carol. It won't hurt and Kai won't bite." Joked Tala.

" Who knows. Maybe he dreamt that he was eating his food and bite my ear." Frowned Carol.

" I won't dream about food." Said Kai as he pulled Carol down to sit beside him on the floor. " But I'll dream about us." He smirked as Carol blushed slightly.

" Aww how sweet." Said Denise, trying to hold back her laughter as Hiro and Anna entered the room.

" Finally they're asleep." Said Hiro as Anna yawned slightly. " C'mon. It's over bed-time and sleep now. And that includes the four of you." Said Hiro sternly as Tala and Denise frowned.

" My life isn't for you to fuss with." Mumbled Denise.

" Yeah. And you're like a parent and we're your kids." Said Tala.

" But that's what I like about him. Always punctual." Smiled Anna as she hugged a blushing Hiro.

" If I had kids, my kids' attitude won't be as bad as you." Snorted Hiro as he went to bed, his back facing Anna's back. Both of them were blushing slightly.

Kai chuckled while Carol giggled over the quarreling couples.

" C'mon. Let's just call this a day." Mumbled Kai as he slept.

After much hesitation, Carol just lied down and hugged her pillow instead of putting it under her head, drifting off to dreamland.


So, how was it ? Hope you guys enjoyed it.
