I'm close to my ending here guys, said i'll probably post like six more drabbles….and then the end of "Kissin'u" would come L. Okay so let's put this as a 'what if' drabble…like instead of the events of my very first drabble 'first kiss' turned out differently…..much more different.

Truth and Dare game right? Spoils everything for a first kiss…..but I couldn't help myself when this popped into my mind several times, Jake may be OOC and perhaps Sam may be too…but like I said…this idea wouldn't leave me alone

Enjoy

Every teen – and ones in their early twenties - that is, were hanging in the barn passing the time during the New Years Eve party. They had all decided to pass the time playing the all so hated-loved game of truth and dare, Kit had stood by in the side lines watching in amusement as teens would reveal embarrassing stuff or do things out of their comfort zone.

Many dares would be extreme to the sort, Ally had to stand on her hands for full five turns – finally falling by the third turn -, Bryan had to sing a love song to Ace, Sam had to give Darrell a kiss – much to Jake's dislike – on the lips, Callie was dared to do a extreme hairdo on Jake and had lived to see the funny results but intimidated by the look he had given her and much to the couples great embarrassment…Jen had to sit on Ryan's lap for at least four passing turns…..

Luckily Jake had not given the chance to put himself in such embarrassment but he did had to reveal a few things that had made a blush be visible on his dark

Darrel noticed Jake leaning against a box stall standing next to Sam – rather closer than usual – to his notice and an idea clicked in his devilish mind, Quinn noticed the secretive look on the guys face and gave him a questioning look. Darrell whispered his plan in the Ely's ear and pointed at the couple making a creepy smirk appear on Quinn's face having liked the idea… a lot

The bad boy emediantly stood straight and smiled when it had came to be his turn "alright, let's see here, who would I pick" he said looking at all the somewhat fearful teens knowing he had made them do beyond crazy things, his eyes had casually stopped on his pal "ah, Jake" he chose and Jake emediantly tensed when his friend's eyes were fixed on him "truth or dare buddy?" he asked smirk plastered on his light tan face

Others were half expecting Jake to pick truth to avoid making such a fool of himself, Jake then saw Kit leaning against the entrance leading to the tack room and had decided differently as if wanting to prove something to his older brother "dare" was the gruff answer Darrell received, many – including Sam herself – were surprised at this

Jack pot Darrell thought as an evil smirk appeared on his face "are you sure Jake?" he asked almost as if mocking the cowboy, getting a curt nod in response "alrighty then, if that's what you pick bro" he added clasping his hands together and arched an eyebrow along with that smirk "I dare ya to kiss Sammy" he just fully lay it out on Jake, guys whistled and Jen was perhaps choking on a her drink

Jake and Sam's faces were beet red "I'm not gonna kiss her!" he choked out face incredibly red much to others surprise, if there was one thing he knew….there were many times in places where he had wanted to do such….but in front of a whole crowd? Not a chance

Darrell chuckled and send his friend a fake comprehending look "sorry Jake, you chose dare" he said and smirked when he had noticed Sam's surprised look and was beet red "no backing down now, unless.." he trailed off looking at his friend, he knew pretty well what would set his friend off "you're a chicken" he finished with a devilish smirk on his face

A glare appeared on the young Ely's face as the guys chanted between words of 'chicken' and 'do it' and it was driving him insane. Without a second thought of what he was doing, he grabbed Sam "Jake, what are you…." She was cut off when his lips pressed against hers, her fingers were half curled in surprise until after a long moment her arms went limp

Wolf whistles and gasps of surprise fill the room not bothering if the adults outside could hear the commotion, Jake pulled away setting Sam on her previous spot, fixing his jacket and cleared his throat glaring at his friend the whole while as he crossed his muscular arms over his chest, Sam was dazed beyond relief and the corner of her lips were nearly twitching into a goofy grin and her face was flushed "there" was the only thing he said….but there was death promise held in his dark eyes and he was directing it at Quinn and Darrell

Darrell let out an impressed whistle "first things first" he said and looked at Sam who would no doubt looked about to faint any second "was there a tongue Darlin'?" he asked as Jake's face darken

Sam blinked a few times "uh huh" it was surprising that she seemed out of breath still…..must've been one hell of a kiss then. Jake inwardly smirked hearing her breathless response, he felt a swell a male pride to know that he was the cause of that breathless reaction. Darrell looked impressed at Jake "guess you're off the hook Ely" he told his friend

"And its now your turn to pick" Jen said looking at the Ely, if there was one thing she knew about her best friend and her frenemy…..is that they had a thing for one another, she obviously knew Sam had a crush on Jake and vice versa….but seeing them kiss upon a dare? It was disturbing

Jake's eyes were fixed on his brother the entire time, he knew well Quinn had something to do with this…and he decided to give the guy a taste of his own medicine "Quinn" he called out with a smirk on his dark handsome face "truth or dare" he said leaning against the wall

Quinn being the poor deluded jackass that he is "dare, you never know if I might end up kissing a girl" he said making the others laugh

Oh you'll kiss a girl alright Jake thought smirking, Kit was the only one to notice that Jake's eyes flicked toward Tempest who looked on in curiosity….he had to keep himself from laughing as he couldn't wait for the results "alright, kiss Tempest" he said and Quinn emediantly stopped laughing and stared in horror as others gawfed at this

"I'm not kissing a horse!" Quinn shrieked, it was beyond funny to see that Quinn was reacting the same way Jake had

"You said you wanted to kiss a girl" Jake said feigning innocence smirking all the while and then pointed at the filly "there's your girl" he added and others were snickering at Quinn's misfortune, Sam wanted to protest on this not wanting her poor Filly to be downright scarred for life…but what can she do? Her mind was still scrambled up by the heated kiss Jake had gave her and seeing as he had wanted revenge

"But…I'm not gonna…that's just…oh come one man!" his stuttering made them burst into laughter, never mind reacting like Jake…..his reaction was beyond funnier than his little brother's. Quinn looked about to protest again until his brothers and Darrell were making clucking sounds of a chicken….if he knew one thing for certain….karma was a bitch.

Adults outside were having small talk until they heard the noise of an outraged squeal, gagging noises and burst of laughter.

Jake and Sam were in the kitchen just enjoying the silence….Jake was leaning against the door frame leading to the entrance of the kitchen as Sam sat on a chair by the table, as much as they knew…the adults couldn't trust the teens to be alone in the barn any longer seeing as the results of a disturbed Filly and a gagging Quinn who was whipping his tongue ferociously;

Sam looked at Jake for a moment before blushing "that was a mean thing you did" she said making Jake turn to her and smirked

He let out a long whoosh of breath "yeah, I know. I'll say sorry to Tempest when I leave" he said making her giggle, it was then the room was filled with awkward silence….they hadn't uttered a word about the dared kiss, what were they supposed to do? Confess their love for one another and live happily ever after? Yeah right. Jake looked at Sam for a moment and then looked up the ceiling "Sam?" he called out…he was never good at this stuff, confessing feelings was never part of his character

"Yeah?" she responded playing with her horse hair bracelet

He let out a long suffering sigh "about the kiss…" he trailed off noticing a green little leaf with red tiny balls on it at the top of the doorframe….how Sam didn't notice it…he didn't know

She cut him off "I know, you were just pressured upon doing it and I get it, the kiss means absolutely nothing" she said looking down at her lap, she didn't know why she felt an ache in her heart at that…she had just gotten him back as her best friend, wasn't that enough?

Jake felt the same ache and looked at her for a moment of longing before putting a determined look, he wasn't going to let her walk off and believe that…he just felt the need to tell her "c'mere" he said gesturing for her to stand by him, giving him a weird look, she stood from her chair, walked a few steps toward him and stopped and faced him

He let out a sigh and put a brave face "meant something to me" she looked up in surprise when she heard him "I'd be lying if I said I didn't…..enjoy it" he added rubbing the back of his neck and looked down at his shoes "there is no doubt in my mind that I just wish I had done it sooner" he let out clearing his throat

Sam wasn't able to believe it, was this some kind of mean sick joke? No….Jake would never do such a thing. So was he confessing what she thought "what are you saying Jake?" she asked looking at him with longing hoping this wasn't some wishful thinking

He looked at her with an emotion in his dark eyes she couldn't spell out "means….means that i have been crazy for you" he said running a hand through his longish dark hair "there were times when I'm sure you think I'm protective because I fear for your safety" he whispered huskily making a shiver run down her spine…and it wasn't from the cold

"But the fact is I fear for your life….because I'm scared either you'll be sent away or you'll never be around anymore and…" he trailed off closing his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath "and because I'm in love with you Sam" there he said it, he had poured out his feelings to her and he could only hope she felt the same way

She wasn't sure if there were actually tears in her eyes, he had just put out his whole courage and told her he loved her….if that didn't bring tears to her eyes she didn't know what will. She placed a light tan hand on his cheek making him open his eyes and look at her with hope; she caressed his jaw and looked at him with a tiny smile on her face "I love you too" she whispered

A smile appeared on his handsome face, he wasn't sure if he would just burst from happiness. He cupped her face in both hands and leaned in "look up brat" he whispered making her give him a bewildered look, she half expected he would kiss then and there….but then flicked her hazel eyes up and knew what he was talking about: a mistletoe hanged from the door frame above their heads "no denying a tradition Brat" he whispered looking down at her, she just giggled

He pressed his lips against hers closing his eyes, the kiss wasn't the steamy passionate one he gave her in the barn as they dared him….it was a sweet long kiss. There was just him and his Brat….the world around them vanished as they shared their second – heartfelt – kiss. To think a game of truth and dare lead them this point in their lives, Jake had a new found respect for it….as it lead to him kissing his best friend and then moments later…a heartfelt confession.
