50 Things To Do When You're Bored
Chapter 22: Matchmakers
A.N- Okay, so I just finished the book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. It was amazing! It is one of my favorite books, and it rates close to The Host. If any of you have read it, please tell me! I would love to talk to you about it. If any of you want an exert from it, just tell me in your review.
This chapter isn't that funny, it's just a game my friends and I decided to play at a party. Remember, it's just things to do when you're bored.

"Mkay, so here is how you play it. We're gonna have one person sit in this chair, and then three other people will sit over there. The person that is sitting in this chair will face the other way because he or she will be asking questions that the 'contestants' will have to answer. It's like those game shows where the person that has to ask contestant one. At the end, the person will have to pick who ever they liked the answers best," I explained, bouncing with excitement. This game sounded like so much fun, especially since this was my first time playing it.
My siblings, and Bella, looked at me, confused. "Oh, I get it! It's a match maker game, but we're just going to play it for fun, and see who we really would pick," Rose replied, after a moment of processing the rules.
I nodded my head. "They will ask the question out loud, then someone will go to the contestants and the contestants will answer to that person who will return the answers, so you can't hear that person's voice. Bella, you get to go first!" I really wanted to hear what questions she would ask, and how the boys would answer to them.
"Um, okay," she replied, nervously. I just giggled, and pulled her over to the chair.
"Rose, go and set the guys up in the chairs over there," I said. Emmett, Jasper, and Edward got up and sat down across the room after I made Bella look the other way. "Okay, you're just going to ask the questions to Rose, and Rose will tell the boys. They will reply and she will bring the answers back to us. Do you get it?"
She looked around, thinking. Humans; it always took them a while to understand things, but I was fine with Bella. She couldn't help it. "Yeah I do. This game actually sounds interesting."
Rose walked over to us, and nodded her head. "Okay, I explained the rules to them and reminded Emmett not to be loud." She smiled, and Bella and I giggled in response. "So what's your first question?"
"Umm, do I ask it to one person or too all three of them?"
"You ask it to any of them. Only one at a time though. You would say, Contestant whatever and then ask your question. So say one two or three," I answered. I didn't know which one of the boys were in what chair, so this was going to be interesting.
"Yeah I get it now."
I knew there was no point in making Bella whisper the questions to Rose because the boys would hear it anyways. As long as the boys told Rose the answers, she wouldn't be able to hear with her human ears.
"Contestant number one, on our first date where would you take me?" Bella asked, saying it in her normal 'inside' voice since she knew that they could all hear her clearly.
Rose bounced over to the boys to wait for there answer. I liked the first question, but I kinda knew she was going to ask something like that. I wanted to hear her say something I wouldn't expect her to ask. "Well, let's see what the answer is," I stated, smiling at her.
"I will be amused if the first person is Emmett if he replies with something that you wouldn't call a date, but more like something you would do when you were ten," Bella said, laughing quietly. Emmett would probably reply with something like laser tag, or having a marshmallow fight.
"Well, that would be a good date if you enjoyed that kind of stuff."
Before Bella could reply, Rose came back and stopped when she was right in front of Bella. She just smirked. "Contestant one said that he would take you too the beach and hold your hands while you strolled down the boardwalk, and teach you how to body surf." Whoa, which one of them said that?
Bella's eyes got wide, and she had a confused look on her face. "Which one of them answered that?"
"Can't tell, remember?" Rose replied. "I know, I was shocked too. It's like there getting into the game spirit. I never thought any of them have it in them, and I still think they don't even have it."
"Well, the rest of the answers are going to be interesting. Aren't they?" I questioned. "That answer was pretty good, but now you have to ask another one."
"Contestant number two, what would you do when you went shopping with me?" Rose went over to the boys again to go and retrieve the answer.
I gasped. "Bella, you shopping? I have taught you well!" I joked, and she laughed. My chest filled with laughter, as we giggled at my joke. "Seriously though, what would the boy do? Complain or carry the bag? Probably both, so that wouldn't be a great answer."
"He said he would sneak off and get you a present," Rose revealed. "Man, these boys really thought about living for forever, or they are lying about every answer they say. I mean, none of them have ever done that for us before!"
"I know!" I exclaimed. "These boys better show us some of these answers they are giving, or they are stinkin' liars!"
"Wow, I can't even tell who it is. I would usually be able to tell which one it was by the answer, but it seems like they are trying to trick me," Bella remarked. "I mean, they sound perfect."
"Well," I interrupted. "They are perfect."
"Yeah, but they are stupid sometimes," Rose added.
"Well..." Bella said, trailing off. "Okay, here's the next question. Contestant three, what would you compare me too?" Once again, Rose made her way to get the answer.
"He says he would compare you too his heart since it before you came along, it didn't beat at all, but you are the one now that keeps it going." Rose just smiled at the answer. Whoa, this answer was really sweet!
"Whoa!"
"Oh my goodness!" I added, after Bella's outburst. "Who said that? That was really, really sweet, and I think I am kinda upset how they say these things when it's just a game!"
"I know!" Rose adds. "You think any of them would say this to us when it would be a good thing to do, but no, they say it when we are just playing a game when it means nothing. And that we're just doing it for fun! I never thought they could be that sweet."
"Whoa," Bella repeated. "I can't believe it, which one said that? It's really nice, and it sounds like something that came out of a romance movie, and I didn't think the boys read that stuff. Well, they might have with all that time on their hands. Seriously who answered that question?"
"I want to say who it was, but I can't!" Rose replied, holding in the secret. I wanted to know who it was too!
"Rose just tell me, or I swear I will get up and look who contestant number three is!" Bella threatened, throwing her hands up in the air.
"Rose!" I exclaimed. "Just tell us! I want to know too! I want to hear who it was from, because, well, I just want to know! I want to demand why they don't say that to us!"
"You really want to know who answered that question?"
"Yes!" Bella and I screamed at the same time.
"Emmett."
Whoa, shocker right? I know.
