Chapter 2-A Slap for a Kiss

"Hey Marisa, What's up?"

"Oh, hello Prince Joshua," Marisa replied.

"Call me Josh," he told her.

"Ok...Josh," she replied.

The two of them had run into each other at camp at night, Josh was oh so slightly inebriated (drunk).Only very slightly.

"I'm gonna be forward, does your heart belong to Gerik?" he asked her.

"WHAT?" Marisa was shocked, "Where does a question like that come from? And, no, he is merely my friend and chief."

"Good, good, good," Joshua smiled, "Wanna make a bet?"

"You and your gambling..."

"You know that I won't leave you alone until you say yes..."he warned her.

"Then I'll just kill you!" she shot.

"Ya right, whatever? "he rolled his eyes, "Ok here's the wager whichever one of us can get an emotional response out of Knoll first wins, then has to do one thing the other person asks!"

"No that's dumb, how about whoever can make Neimi cry?" Mairsa smiled.

"Whoa! That's too mean... whoever can get slapped first! Ready...set...go!" Josua ran off.

"What? That is the dumbest thing I ever heard. I've never been slapped..." Marisa said angrily as she ran off.

"Tana...Oh Tana..."Joshua was out looking for her. He knew she was short-tempered.

"I suppose I could just ask someone to slap me...Excuse me Artur? Will you slap me?"Marisa asked him.

"Um..."Artur gave her a weird look and hurried off.

"Dammit!"

"Hey Tana!" Joshua said.

"Not now Joshua, have you seen Ephraim?" Tana looked angry.

"Um..no...but you have a nice ass..."Joshua prepared himself.

WHAP!

"I win..."

Marisa stormed up angrily.

"You know what? Several people in camp think I'm insane now thanks to you? Judging by the mark on your face you won..."

"I sure did...now pucker up!"

"WHAT?"

"You lost and fair is fair .Hehehehe!"

"You sick little pervert stay away from..." it was too late for Marisa. Joshua grabbed her and kissed her right on the lips.

"I'm gonna KILL you "Marisa had fire in her eyes.

"I think it's a safe bet for me to leave NOW! "Joshua ran off with Marisa right on his heels. She had a little smile on her face though..."
