Yay! Happy birthday to me~! I was actually kind of depressed but then I got some super sweet reviews on the last chapter that made me blush to say the least. But the one person who completely cheered me up was sandy162. She wrote a oneshot for me when all of my real life friends didn't even care enough to give me a piece of paper that said 'happy birthday' on it XD Thankyou again, for like the 1000th time - I don't know how I can repay you D:

Also, I liked to beg someone - anyone - to just go back and review my last fic, The Random Adventures of Darren Shan XD You don't even have to read it, it doesn't even have to be a serious review just someone review it please because it's had 49 reviews for like decades now and it's annoying me that it still hasn't reached 50 XD I'm actually tempted to review it myself just so I can get to 50. Anyway, le disclaimer time~

Disclaimer:

Holt: Happy birthday, SL-nee-sama~!

SL: Oh, thanks, Holt-xiao-tu! (This doesn't fit him like it does Stevey-poo XD)

Chibi Steve: What did you just call him?

SL: Huh? Did you say something, Steve?

Chibi Steve: Xiao tu is my nickname, goddammit! *Attacks Holt*

SL: Steve, what did I say about violence? And I thought you hated it when I called you that!

Chibi Steve: *Stops beating up Holt* I did but *sniffs* I miss you, SL-nee-sama.

SL: *Clicks fingers and Holt disappears*

Chibi Steve: *Grins and hugs SL-nee-sama* You do realize I'll be back to normal by the next chapter though, right?

SL: I know, but I'll just enjoy this sweet you while I can.

Chibi Steve: SL-nee-sama doesn't own The Saga of Darren Shan or any of it's characters. And she most certainly doesn't own that idiot, Holt Hyde.

"Thanks for not giving up on me when I got BDDTTD, Darren." Steve was saying.

"No problem. I couldn't just leave you to become one of them. Although Xan, I couldn't save." Both of them turned to Xan, who was avidly reading Breaking Dawn. "How did she get through the whole Twilight series in less than a day?"

Steve covered his ears. "Don't say that word!"

Daryl laughed. "Sorry, honey." Neither of them said anything for a moment. "Hey, Steve?"

Steve turned to look at his old friend. "Hmm?

"I've always been curious about why you still call me Darren? Everyone else calls me Daryl now."

Steve blushed slightly. "I don't know," He shrugged. "I guess it's because we've been friends for so long and I can't really get used to calling you Daryl. Why? Does it bother you?"

"No, just wondering."

"Erm, Darren?"

"Yeah?"

"I-I…"

Xan screamed.

"What's wrong?" Daryl cried, a look of worry in her eyes.

"I finished it!"

"Go read some other cheesy dark romance vampire book then." Steve murmured, looking annoyed.

"There are more?" Xan exclaimed, her eyes lighting up.

Just then Evra approached and slumped down next to Daryl.

"I'm bored!" He announced.

"Aren't we all?" Steve agreed. Then he grinned cheekily when he got an idea. "Let's play Truth or Dare."

"I'm extremely scared by that look on your face but since I have nothing better to do then I will play with you." Daryl said.

"Ditto," Evra added.

"I guess I can play for a little while," Xan said, smirking at Daryl.

Daryl quickly averted her eyes from the witch. "So, who goes first?"

"You!" Steve, Evra and Xan all cried.

"This is a lot like the time we all played Spin the Bottle," Daryl muttered.

"So, Darren, truth or dare?" Steve asked quickly before anyone else could.

Daryl was too scared to pick dare, remembering the dare games she and Steve used to play as children so she went with truth, hoping that Steve wouldn't ask her something embarrassing and personal.

"Who do you have a crush on?"

Daryl's face turned scarlet. "Can I change to dare?"

"Alright," Steve winked. "I dare you to make out with me."

Daryl rolled her eyes at the silver-haired boy. "Fine, I'll do it."

Evra and Xan both narrowed their eyes at Steve as Daryl leaned into kiss him. Evra folded his arms and focused on the ground and Xan re-read the back cover of Breaking Dawn as Steve and Daryl kissed in a very sexual manner in front of them.

"Okay, that's enough!" Xan yelled after a while, pulling Daryl away from the smirking teenager. "Who's going next?"

"I think you should go, Xan," Daryl smiled.

"O-okay," Xan replied, unable to resist the raven-haired girl's cuteness.

"Truth or dare?" Evra enquired.

"Dare," Xan answered, grinning fearlessly.

"Okay…" Evra paused while he thought up a dare for his enemy. "I dare you to strip down to your underwear and run round the Cirque screaming, 'Evra is the best!'."

"No way am I doing that!" Xan exclaimed.

"Why? Are you too chicken?" Evra teased.

"No, of course not!" Xan spat, pulling off her skin-tight black dress. She jumped to her feet and gave Daryl a small smile before continuing with her dare. As she ran around in her black bra and panties, a few heads were turned but weirder things had happened at the Cirque du Freak.

After having circled the Cirque once, Xan plopped down in her seat on the floor and pulled her dress back on.

"Alright, it's your turn now, Evra," She announced. She hurried on without even waiting for any input by the snake-boy. "Truth or dare?

"Dare," Evra replied, accepting the silent challenge that Xan had placed before him.

"I dare you to confess your love to Mr. Crepsley."

"No way!" Evra shouted.

"Why? Are you too chicken?" Xan smirked, repeating the question the snake-boy had asked her earlier.

Evra just grunted and stood up. He made his way to Mr. Crepsley's tent with Xan, Evra and Steve close behind. They waited outside the tent as he entered and knocked on Mr. Crepsley's coffin.

"This better be good!" Mr. Crepsley groaned. "Waking me up in the middle of the day…" He froze when he got a look at Evra. "Evra? What is it you want?"

"I just wanted to tell you that…" He shot a look of annoyance at Xan who was outside the tent. She gave him a thumbs up. "I love you."

"What?" Mr. Crepsley gasped. "Is this some kind of joke?"

Evra ran out of the old vampire's tent before he could ask any more questions. He sighed. "Your go, Steve. Truth or dare?"

"Dare," Steve answered.

Xan and Evra were both silent as they tried to think up a dare for Steve but everything, it seemed, Steve would be able to do, no problem.

"Can't think of a dare for me, eh?" Steve laughed.

"No," Evra admitted.

"Alright, I'll switch to truth."

"Um, okay…" Evra paused to think of something to ask Steve but Xan beat him to it.

"Was your kiss with Evra good?"

Steve turned a deep shade of red that Daryl hadn't seen since the time he had walked in on her getting changed when they were kids (Of course, she had been a he then).

"Well?" Xan pushed.

"M-maybe a little…" Steve stammered.

Xan burst out laughing, Evra was blushing just as deeply as Steve was and Daryl was just looking very uncomfortable.

"I think that's enough for today," She announced before leaving the laughing girl and the two embarrassed boys.
