There was a knock on the door and people slowly filed in. For a couple minutes after all 24 people were in everybody awkwardly stood around.

"Okay, guys!" Brooklyn took the wheel. "First thing on the list is...TRUTH OR DARE." Some people cheered, some groaned, and some just looked scared. However, everybody got around to form a circle.

"This game will be with a twist," declared Valerie. "If you don't like your truth or dare, you have an option of doing a slap or kiss. Basically, you will spin a bottle and exit the room. Whoever it lands on will have to slap you or kiss you based on a vote of the other people in the room." 

"Now!" Brooklyn took the wheel again. "Did anybody bring anything that can be used for the game?"

"I brought something in," Hannah looked through a small bag she had at her side. "Uhh let's see, there is a bubble gun, a live chicken, a fox, and  a snake." She looked up, everyone was staring at her. "What?" She asked. "This is Oliver." she said picking up the python, "The fox's name is James Sebastian Barnes . The chicken is Pollito. They get along well enough and live in our dorm."

Lauren noticed Travis looking strangely at her and quickly averted her gaze. "What?" She repeated again.

"Only you Lauren." She heard him say. "Only you."

 "Anybody else?" Valerie filled in the silence that followed. Sarah and Brooklyn, who were sitting next to Lauren started to pet the animals.

"I brought in a tub of ice cream!" Lizzie exclaimed, bringing out from behind her a mountain of icecream tubs

"How did you-" Alexis looked at the tubs in awe. "Do you guys have spoons?" As the tubs were placed in the middle of the circle people got spoons and ate the cold treats happily.

"If that's all, do we start?" Emily asked, impatient to get the game started. There were nods all around. "Okay then! Lauren," Emily stated. Lauren looked up like a deer caught in headlights. "Truth, or dare?"

"Uhh, truth please." She meekly stated.

"What happened on your project trip with Travis?" Emily grinned in anticipation. "If you don't feel like answering, it's okay. You might just have to get slapped or kissed."

"C-can I do slap or kiss?" Lauren stuttered nervously, meaning she was hiding something and Emily wanted to find out what.

"Fine..." Emily huffed.

Valerie brought over an empty bottle and placed it in the middle of the room.  Lauren slowly went over to the bottle and gave it a good spin. She looked up at who it landed on and breathed a sigh of relief. It just passed Travis by two people and landed on...Adam. I don't think anybody here will make him kiss me. She thought relieved. Everybody knows you don't get between him and Emily.

"Exit the room!" Brooklyn gleefully called out, as Lauren got up and left the room. "Now the rest of us will take a vote. We have a few slips of paper. You can put an x for slap and an o for kiss, make sure its anonymous"

 "Come back in!", Valerie called out.  Lauren entered warily, looking at the faces surrounding her. Emily didn't seem mad. That was a good sign. But Brooklyn was grinning, and that was bad. The paper was in Adam's hand but his expression was unreadable.

"Can I see it?" She asked, feeling slightly afraid now. Adam looked up and gave her the sheet. She let out an audible sigh. It was obviously an x majority.

"Uhh how do I do this?" Adam asked Valerie, who just shrugged. "However, you want.", she stated. Adam slapped Lauren on the hand and looked around for approval. People just nodded. Some looked disappointed that it wasn't a kiss. Oh well.
