EnchantixTracy: I own nothing, except my imagination.

Bold Font: Once upon a time, a man who loved a woman, saw her drown in a river. Even though he didn't know how to swim, he jumped into the river and rescued her. Then they got married.

EnchantixTracy: Awwwwwwww...I wish I could drown in a river just like the woman so a man can rescue me...

Bold Font: You'd probably end up dead.

"So," I said to Caitlyn, "Since this is Connect Three's last night in New Jersey before they go on the tour, I decided to end things in a happy note,"

"Great plan Mitchie," said Caitlyn, "And exactly what are we doing?"

"Truth or dare," I said simply.

Caitlyn's eyes widened and then her lips broke into a devilish smirk.

"Ooooohhhhh...I like it," she said.

"Hey guys!," said Jason coming in the room, "We got the dinner!,"

We all were in my house, and everyone was staying over. My parents are at my granny's. Somehow, I feel that they have been MIA lately.

Anyway, we sat down in a circle. Jason and Shane had agreed instantly to play the game. Nate had been a little reluctant, but then Cat produced the fork, so he complied.

Setting the dinner aside, I put the empty beer bottle (that Shane found while searching for his hair gel in the trash) in the center and looked at the clock.

"8:27 pm," I said. "Quite the right time,"

"Why?" asked Shane.

"Cause this is the right time to have dinner and relax together,"

"Let's begin," said Caitlyn.

Jason spun the bottle, and it pointed to me and Nate.

"Mitchie, truth or dare?" he asked.

"Truth," I said.

"How do you feel for Shane?"

"I, um, well, you see," I stuttered, "I'm in love with him," I finished quietly.

Everyone was quiet. I just looked down in embarrassment. Then Shane grabbed me, and turned me so that I could face him.

He then took my face in his hands and gave me the most passionate kiss I had ever had.

Everyone began to clap and hoot, and we broke apart.

He had a smile on his face, and so did I.

"Shane," said Caitlyn, "Truth or Dare?"

"Dare," he smirked.

"Okay," she said, "Take your underwear off and stay like that for the rest of the game,"

"WHAT?" he bellowed.

"You can wear your pants, you know,"

"So you're saying that I have to take my pants off, then take my boxers off, and then out my pants back on again?"

"Yes, but the last part is entirely up to your choice,"

We all laughed, as Shane got up and went to the bathroom. He came back a few seconds later and gave his boxers to Caitlyn, who wanted them as a proof.

"Caitlyn," said Nate, "Truth or Dare,"

"Dare," she said.

"Go have sex with Nate in the car," said Shane.

"Shut up man," said Nate, "It's not your turn. Anyway. Caitlyn, do you love me?"

"What kind of loser question is that?" asked Shane. I poked him on his side. He pouted and I ran a finger over his lips. His pout turned into a smile, and we shifted to sit closer, until he and I were so close that we could be sharing kidneys.

"Yes Nate," said Caitlyn, "I love you,"

"And I love you too," he said.

"Jason, truth or dare?" I asked.

"Dare," he said.

"Okay. Wear Shane's boxers on your head," I said.

"Eeeewwww," said Jason.

But he still took Shane's boxers from Caitlyn and put them on his head.

"They smell funny," he complained, "Is it Viagra I smell?"

We all started to laugh really hard, except Shane.

"Okay, first of all, that is my peach body wash. And second of all, Viagra is a tablet, not an

ointment,"

"Mitchie," said Caitlyn, "Truth or Dare,"

"Dare," I said, earning a mock gasp from Shane.

"Go inside the bathroom and makeout with Shane for 5 minutes,"

"Sounds good," said Shane.

"But Shane and I aren't even a couple," I said.

"So?" said Caitlyn, "You will be, someday,"

Shane smirked and led me to my bathroom. He closed the door and brought his face very close to mine.

"You don't have to do this, you know," he said.

"Oh but I want to," I said.

He then pressed his lips to mine, and I then felt my lips move in a rhythmic flow. His hands made their way to my cheek and lower back respectively. I ran my hands through his hair, and then I felt his tongue graze my bottom lip.

I pulled back immediately. Shane looked at me in surprise. I looked everywhere, but him. He raised my chin up with his fingers, and wiped away the tears that had been flowing down.

"I'm sorry," he said, "I took this too far for our first time,"

"It's not your fault," I said, "It just brought back some bad memories,"

He nodded in understanding, but did not question me any further. I respected him for doing this.

We then went out. Caitlyn wiggled her eyebrows suggestively, and Nate looked at me with concern on his face.

"Everything okay, Mitch?"

I nodded.

"You know guys," said Shane, "Lets just go to sleep for now,"

Jason nodded and opened up his sleeping bag, and so did Nate.

I pulled Shane away from the room, and took him downstairs. We sat on the couch. I pulled him close to me and we cuddled.

He wrapped his arms around me, and I gave in to his warmth. After ten minutes, I said, "I wanna talk, Shane,"

"Okay. So, what happened?"

I took a deep breath, and said, "In my Sophomore year, this guy whose name was Sam asked me out. I was beyond ecstatic, because Sam was one of the hottest guys in our school. Pretty soon after the date, Sam and I became a couple. Sam wasn't like others. He was a complete gentleman. He opened doors for me, brought me flowers, and most of all, didn't pressure me into anything. And then, one day, Sam suggested that we should take things to the next level. I said that it was too soon, but he kept on persisting,"

Flashback

"Come on Mitchie," said Sam, "It's just sex,"

"Sam," I said, "It's not 'just sex'. I don't think we should be taking things so fast. Besides, I'm not ready for it,"

"Mitchie," he said, "We've been in this relationship for three months. How much longer do you want to wait?"

"I want to wait more. It's just three months since I've known you Sam. There is still lots more I don't know about you,"

"Mitchie, babe, please? Lets just try it this once. If you don't like it, we'll stop,"

"No, Sam. I don't want to do this,"

"Come on, Mitch. What do you want me to say? I love you? Okay fine. I love you Mitchie. Now can we have sex?"

"Why are you acting as if you're with me for sex?"

"I'm not acting like that. I'm just saying that...,"

"You know what? You don't need to say anything. I'm out of here. Call me when you've satisfied your hunger for sex,"

"You know Mitchie?" said Sam, "Maybe I'll satisfy myself right now,"

End of Flashback

"And with that," I said, "he grabbed me and threw me on the bed. He kissed me forcibly, and jerked his tongue in my mouth. I tried to move but his hands were on mine, and had a grip like iron. And then he ripped my shirt off, and then his own. He kissed my chest, and then tore my bra. I was crying so hard. For a second, our eyes met, and he wasn't the same sweet Sam anymore. He was a sex hungry demon. His eyes were so cold. And then, I passed out. When I woke up, I was in the hospital. They told me that the neighbour heard my cries and called the 911. I was crying so hard. Everybody told me that I was fine, since nothing happened. But inside, I was horrified, and ashamed. it was as if my dignity had been taken away from me. I know that women out there go through worse. And I cannot imagine what would have happened if he had raped me,"

I was sobbing by now. Shane hugged me. I raised my head up a little bit, and saw fire in his eyes.

"Remind me," he said, 'Remind me that the next time I come here, I have to kill him. He's in jail now, right?"

"No," I said, "I decided to keep the matter quiet. I didn't want anyone in the school to know. But the principle still decided to kick him out, and get him transferred to another school. She didn't want to see me hurt again. Honestly, I think I'm blessed to have such good people around me,"

"Mitchie," said Shane, "I promise you that I'll never hurt you. And I'll never let anyone hurt you either,"

"Thank You, Shane," I said drifting off into sleep. The last thing I remember was Shane's sweet voice singing me a lullaby.
