Chapter Three: Truth
"Okay Shalimar, it's your turn, and I am picking truth for you." Shalimar cocked an eyebrow at Jesse and waited. What now? She thought.
"This truth has two parts; first did you enjoy that kiss (as if we don't already know) and second are you in love with Brennan?"
Everyone sat in silence, holding his or her breath. Would she admit it or not?
Shalimar took a deep breath, looked at Brennan and said, "Yes and yes." It felt so good to finally admit it.
Brennan didn't wait too long to respond "I love you too Shal." He didn't want her to take it back.
They sat and smiled at each other like a couple of teenagers in love.
"I knew it!" Crowed Jesse. "I just had to make you two admit it before you drove us all crazy!"
"Okay Jess, you were right, we owe you one." Said Brennan.
"Just one?"
"Okay, a really big one!" Shalimar chimed in. "And if you don't mind, we are going to play our own private game of truth or dare in my room."
"Thanks man, I really owe you one!" mouthed Brennan as Shalimar led him from the room.
When they were gone, Lexa turned to Jesse. "That was sneaky of you, but really nice too. Even though our kiss was a disaster I think the night went pretty well."
"You do?" Asked a surprised Jesse.
"Yeah, I do. What do you say we watch a movie and try that again some other time?"
"Sounds good to me, you pick the movie and I'll make the popcorn!" Jesse paused on his way to the kitchen. "Do you think we should invite Shal and Bren to join us?" He joked.
"I don't think we're going to see them for a while!" Laughed Lexa. "Now where is my popcorn?" "I'm going, I'm going!"
I wonder what the temperature is going to be for the rest of the week? Thought Jesse as he walked down the hall. I sure hope it's going to be cold, so I can try that kiss again tomorrow!
The End.
