Oh…my…LORD! I'm so sorry! I haven't updated in so long. PLEASE FORGIVE THIS PROCRASTINATING FOOL! I have no excuse…so…here's the chapter!

"I dare you…to kiss Mahiru on the cheek."

Nozomu's dare momentarily stunned Mitsuru. But then, quicker than a sugar-high bunny, Mitsuru ran to his room and locked the door. Everyone else sat in silence, with Mahiru blushing furiously.

"Damn, I guess I should have saved that dare for later." Nozomu sighed.

Nice going, you baka. Now the plan is ruined! Misoka thought, a look of annoyance visible on his face.

But, Akira wasn't going to let this happen. "Oh NO he doesn't! He's not getting out of this one!" He said, and then marched down the hall to Mitsuru's room.

He knocked on the Tengu's door rather loudly. "COME ON OUT, MITSURU! OR I'LL TELL EVERYONE ABOUT YOUR BEANIE BABY COLLECTION…oops."

"DAMN YOU! Go away!" Mitsuru yelled on the other side, choking a Beanie Baby in an attempt to relieve stress. Oh no! This is a Billionaire Bear! He thought, then put it back on a shelf.

"Fine! Don't come out…you chicken."

Mitsuru froze. Nobody, and he meant NOBODY, could call him a chicken! I mean, calling him Bat Boy was bad enough (since he wasn't a stupid bat, damnit! He was a tengu.), but chicken…he couldn't stand it.

"Take that back, you little bastard!" Mitsuru yelled.

"CHICKEN!" Akira hollered, then proceeded to do the most DISTURBING chicken dance…IN HISTORY! He also made sounds like a hen giving birth to a truck.

On the other side of the door, Mitsuru was being driven insane by Akira's silliness.

If he doesn't stop in five seconds…I'm going to kill him. He thought.

Five seconds later…

"RARGH!" Mitsuru burst out of the door, attempt to grab Akira by the neck, missed, and then hit the wall. "Uurgh…"

"Now now…I'll stop doing my dance of doom…IF you do Nozomu's dare!" Akira said.

Mitsuru contemplated this. If he ignored Akira's warning, he would do that stupid chicken crap again! On the other hand, if he actually KISSED that wretched girl…

Well, nothing particularly bad would happen.

Except I might GAG a little. He thought. But I guess that's better than being called a chicken…

"Fine."

"What was that?"

"I SAID FINE! I'LL DO IT DAMNIT!"

Akira grinned with glee, and Mitsuru reluctantly walked back into the main room, where Nozomu and Misoka were arguing, and Mahiru was still blushing. The kitsune and vampire looked over in surprise.

"He agrees?" Nozomu said.

"Yup!" Akira said, proud of his convincingness.

Mitsuru silently walked over to Mahiru and sat down right next to her. He tried to give her an evil look, but she wouldn't even meet his eyes. She continued to stare at the carpet, occupying herself by counting all the tiny dots.

But then, she felt warm lips come in contact with her left cheek, then quickly pull away.

She looked over in surprise, and saw that Mitsuru was blushing just as bad as she was.

"HORRAY!" Akira cheered, and then did his victory dance…which was even MORE DISTURBING than the chicken dance. Mitsuru threw a random frying pan at him. "Ouchies."

Now that that ordeal was over, Mitsuru had to think up some kind of dare to get back at Nozomu. Or maybe get back at Misoka. He could tell that those two were in on this together. Hmm…yeah, he would dare Misoka to do something extremely embarrassing!

"Misoka…truth or dare?"

"Truth."

CRAP! Mitsuru yelled in his head.

"Ok…have you ever kissed another guy?"

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

DAMN! I'll get him next time…

Now, it was Misoka's turn.
