((Happy New Year everyone ))

"Lui...Truth or dare?" Evan cleared his throat, the second everyone was focused on Lui he looked over at me and licked his bottom lip before looking back at Lui.

"I'm going to go with Truth...the topic's going to sex already and I don't want to know where the dares are leading too"

"god your all pussies" I had to try and get the others to do dares if I there was a chance that we could get Tyler and Mini together.  just as I got myself in a comfortable position leaning back against the wall Cartoonz came back, wedging himself between me and Nogla and shoving me with enough force that I almost ended up in Evan's lap.

"Come on man how many times, move that big ass head of yours" Cartoonz complained and kept up the pressure on my shoulder to make me move as close to Evan as physics would allow.

" I wouldn't have to if you didn't have such a fat ass" I grumbled moving back towards Cartoonz so that I wasn't invading Evan's personal space when there was plenty of room, the guys would notice something like that.

"alright I'll change to dare" Lui giggled

Evan pulled a face and thought for a moment "Sit cowgirl style in someone's lap till your next turn"

I waited to see who Lui was going to sit on before I reacted, I'm not sure I'd be able to make myself laugh convincingly if he decided to turn the tables and sit on Evan's lap.  some tension left me is he suddenly straddled Brock and smiled cheekily.

"So do I get candy now?" Lui squeakered and I genuinely started laughing with the others. "ok Mini...truth or dare"

"Dare *hiccup* I'm keeping *hiccup* my secrets...damn hi*hiccups*cups...Brock this is all*hiccups*your fa*hiccups*ult" Mini grumbled loudly and started blushing.

"alright" Lui giggled and I knew he was coming up with something that would embarrass his friends "for the next fifteen seconds you have to kiss Tyler on the lips"

I watched as Tyler smirked for a second before shifting his position and picking his drink up.

"Wh *hiccup*at?" Mini would of stuttered if he hadn't hiccupped

"don't act dumb you heard" Lui was smirking, he knew Mini wouldn't back out of the dare.  This was going to be interesting.  I looked to the side at met Evan's gaze we both smirked and looked back as Mini knelt beside Tyler, who was making sure everyone knew who was in control of this situation by taking his time with his drink and making everyone wait until he was ready.

"Take your time Tyler this isn't awkward at all" I heard Mini grumble under his breath putting his hands on his knees to support himself while he waited for Tyler to turn to him.  I saw Tyler lick his lips as he put his drink down and slowly turn to face Mini.  Mini hesitated before leaning forward and hiccupping once before he kissed Tyler, I say he kissed him, what he actually did was press his lips to Tyler's.  Neither of them closed their eyes and neither of them tried to touch the other or move, however I got the impression that they wanted to.

Our group of friends was silent except for Lui who was counting down the fifteen seconds.  While everyone was watching Mini and Tyler I looked over at Evan, he turned a little to reach for another drink from the middle of the circle and gave me a lopsided smirk.  I wasn't prepared for the flutter of excitement that rolled around my stomach and had to fight to keep control of myself before I giggled like a school girl that had just seen her crush.   I focused back on the others, the closer Lui was getting to zero the more disappointed he was sounding.  The kiss ended with Mini awkwardly sitting back down and fidgeting under everyone's gazes.

"wow that was..." Lui sighed obviously disappointed with the lack of enthusiasm with the kiss.

"what do*hiccup* you expect you asked me *hiccup* to kiss a friend" Mini whined frowning at Lui

"you should have grabbed him into an old style dip kiss Tyler...might of scared the hiccups out of him" Nogla laughed

" I was going to but thought better of it after the hugging earlier" Tyler was watching Mini with a satisfied smirk on his face while Mini fidgeted and started picking at the carpet, his blush getting darker as the conversation progressed.

"Nogla!" Mini almost shouted trying to change the subject "truth or dare?"

"Truth I'm not kissing anyone"

"Have you ever had a weird dream that had one of our little group here in it, and what was it about?" mini was obviously trying to change the topic of the questions and dares to something more normal than sex.

"uh...Yes it had Delirious, you and Tyler in it and you where hunting me with tequila shots" Nogla announced as if he was proud of the statement

"what?" I laughed trying to think of a scenario where that might make sense.

"hunting you with tequila shots" mini was using the same slow but rather loud voice he used in his video's "ooookkaaay...moving on"

While Nogla was trying to decide who he was going to chose I watched Tyler watch Mini and Mini trying not to look at Tyler.

"Cartoonz...Truth or dare?"

"Dare...just to shut this asshole up" Cartoonz grabbed my shoulder and shoved me sideways  hard enough to make me over balance and fall into Evan,  he'd leant back against the wall which meant my shoulder collided with his chest rather than his shoulder and the side of my head bump lightly off his, with one hand trapped between us I instinctively moved my other hand across my body to push myself back upright.  it took me a second to realise I had stabilised myself with my hand on his stomach, I felt the warmth of his body and every muscle in his stomach through his t-shirt.  clearing my throat as quietly as possible I straightened myself up and looked up at him mouthing an apology as we straightened ourselves out.  I must of missed the what Nogla had Dared Cartoonz to do because when I looked back at the group Cartoonz was gone

"What's Wrong with us guys...we could have chosen anything to do as dares but we went straight for the nakedness and sexual stuff" Lui looked down at Brock who he was still straddling" I mean seriously what are we doing...I'm straddling Brock, Mini had to kiss Tyler, Delirious kissed Mini, Tyler admitted he's kissed men in the past and Evan admitted he's read 50 shades"

"Hey!" Evan complained even though I knew that he had actually read that book.  I laughed along with the others but got the shock of my life when Cartoonz reappeared next to me wearing nothing but a small towel and his sunglasses.

"Well come one Nogla this is your challenge you get to witness it" Cartoonz said and headed out the door with Nogla close behind him.  With their departure everyone started moving around and taking a break from sitting on the floor which was a lot more uncomfortable than it looked. it wasn't long before Cartoonz and Nogla were back, Nogla shouting about how Cartoonz had managed to get not only the receptionists phone number and got hit on by the security guard too.

"Alright Brock I'm not going to bother askin' so here it is...Either tell us if you have ever slept with a guy or spank Lui on the ass" Cartoonz didn't even wait for a reply, he just disappeared into the bathroom to get dressed.

"no I've never slept with a guy" Brock sounded relieved, I turned to look over at where he was sitting with Lui back straddling his legs. "Lui you look disappointed" Brock had that mischievous tone  which usually meant someone was going to end up blushing.

"I thought he might give you something a bit juicier than that" Lui complained as he fidgeted in Brocks lap

"I think Lui's really disappointed you didn't spank him Brock" Tyler accused, getting back up from Evan and Mini as they all laughed at Lui getting flustered at the accusation

"No I'm not guys" Lui whined but chuckled along with us "Shut up we've gone full circle so Brock has to do Tyler"

Tyler got to his feet and turned to get another drink

"ok Tyler Truth or dare?" Brock asked in a slightly distracted way as if he was trying to think of an answer to something.

"And don't forget you chose truth last time" Lui squeakered

"Fine...Dare" Tyler sighed and instantly pulled a face when he saw Lui whispering to Brock.  the look of suspicion increased when we saw Brock turning an impressive shade of red that I expected was giving off a fair amount of heat.

"Uh...Ok...Seven minutes in heaven with Mini, and you have to give a hickey to Mini as proof that you didn't stand in the dark for seven minutes"

"hang on a second don't I get a say in this" Mini protested from his new position on the floor, close to Tyler's feet.

"Don't you think the guy has enough bruises without me adding to them" Tyler complained looking between Brock and Lui.

"No...Tyler didn't get a say when you kissed him...and as for the bruises those were all done with violence, this one won't be" I don't know why I spoke up, but I do know that I had to help get these two together and making them do something as personal as giving each other a hickey it would either not make it a little awkward for a short time or give them the push they need to get into each others pants.

"Can you hurry up I can't feel my legs" Lui squeakered pulling a sad face.

Mini made a weird noise but then sighed, as he got to his feet I noticed him bite his lip and swallow hard as he looked up at Tyler "Fine...but you better put it where I can easily cover the damn thing up easily" He fidgeted and pulled the bottom of his t-shirt down.

"With your camouflage skills that is kind of a void comment" Evan Chuckled and we watched Mini's face turn a dark pink.

"Ok stop with the comments...Mini move" Tyler had his take charge attitude on and gave Mini a gentle push in the direction of the closet.  Mini didn't say a word he just did what he was told, I looked over my shoulder at Evan and we smirked at each other.  Evan had obviously picked up that Mini didn't even ask why Tyler wasn't the one getting the hickey, after a very half hearted attempt to get out of it he just accepted that he was going to be the one dominated and marked by one of his friends, and Tyler hadn't fought it either.

I stepped out of the way as Evan opened the closet door,  Mini got in first followed by Tyler who had to almost bend in half so that he didn't hit his head on the rail. Evan closed the door before they had gotten themselves sorted out and we instantly heard a thud, both Evan and I put our ears to the door and heard the two of them bickering about falling over.

"are they ok?" Lui asked, he'd obviously heard the thud as well.

We moved away from the door and turned back to the group "Yeah they're fine, Mini lost his balance" Evan yawned and leant against the dresser.  I watched the others looking at each other like they were lost for what they should do next.

"Ok Delirious...in Tyler's absence I'm going to take his place...I'm going to assume your going to go for dare again?" Lui smirked tilted his head at me.

"Bring it on bitch" I laughed and folded my arms, I will admit I was nervous of what this little fucker was going to dare me to do.

"Same as last time but this time you have to kiss someone on the mouth for 20 seconds" he was trying not to giggle.  Apparently my last challenge hadn't been enough for this asshole, I sensed rather than saw Evan tense up and start to move so that he wouldn't have to watch. "We're talking a full on smooch here Delirious"

I kept eye contact with Lui but reached to the side and grabbed hold of Evan's arm as he moved passed me to get to the bathroom, before he could react I pulled him backwards so that he'd lose his balance, I caught him as he fell backwards his hands instinctively grabbing my shoulders to save himself from falling on his ass. I kissed him the same time he gasped in surprise at being pulled backward, my tongue flicked across his lower lip quickly before we both froze, eyes open and looking at each other, I knew Evan was going to have something to say about this later when we were alone but right at this moment I was enjoying the only time I was able to touch him in front of the guys and not trigger their suspicions.  Evan started looking around the room as if he was waiting for something to be over, Lui counted down the last few seconds and I pulled Evan back up so that he was standing in the same direction he'd been moving when I grabbed him.  Everyone was watching his reaction, he tugged the bottom of his shirt to straighten it then looked over his shoulder at me and narrowed his eyes.

"Call me" he then continued his trip to the bathroom.

"later" I chuckled along with the others as he closed the bathroom door, Cartoonz wrapped his arm around my throat and pulled me back into a brotherly hug, an indication of how much he'd had to drink, he was a huggy drunk. The rest of the gang all started moving around getting drinks or looking out of the window.  Nogla was creeping closer to the closet door trying to hear what Tyler and Mini where doing. "Nogla...leave them alone" complained as I pulled Cartoonz arm away from my throat so I could breathe.

"I just want to make sure they aren't just talking" he edged a bit closer

"You just want to get off on hearing your friends making out" Cartoonz accused and I couldn't help but laugh at the guilty look that flashed across Nogla's face, he moved back into the room and sat on the end of the bed.

Evan re-joined us a few minutes later and we decided it was time to let the guys out of the closet, Lui made it to the door before anyone else and slide it open to reveal Tyler holding Mini in an approximation to a Dip kiss pose, similar to what I'd had Evan in a little while ago.  Tyler was squinting at the light but Mini seemed to be hiding his face in Tyler's shoulder.

"awww such a romantic pose" Nogla cooed making Mini look back at us but still seem to be clinging to Tyler like he was some kind of comfort blanket.

"Shut the fuck up and untangle my feet please" Mini demanded, it was then that I noticed that his feet were tangled in the straps to a bag on the floor "I hate to think what I'm doing to Tyler's back"

"it's what your doing to his front that we're more interested in" Lui chuckled as he knelt down to untie Mini.

"hanging on so he doesn't fall over" Tyler stated, I focused on Tyler for a moment and noticed a slight flush of colour to his face, when he looked at Mini his eyes seemed to linger for a second longer than it should.

"Damn Mini how did you even do that?"

"I don't know what did I do?" Mini whined with one of his comical tones he used in his video's

"It's like you've braided them around your ankles" Lui sounded baffled as he tugged on the straps "where you dancing or something?"

"I don't know...just help me please" Mini whined as he readjusted his grip on Tyler which pulled him closer to him. 

"Hang on...Lui move" Tyler seemed to be picking up on Mini's discomfort and had decided to do something about it.  "Mini hold onto me and let me take your weight for a second"  Even though Mini looked suspicious of what was going to happen he did what he was told and put his trust in Tyler,  Tyler quickly moved out of the closet making us all step back, he swung Mini up into the air and into a bridal style hold.  I stifled a chuckle as I Mini scream, pull his legs up to his chest and cling to Tyler's shoulders as he felt himself launched upwards.  it took him a few moments to realise he was safe and not about to hit the floor.

"you asshole put me down!" he demanded but was still hanging onto Tyler.

"Ok" Tyler did one of those fake drop pranks making Mini squeal with and swear under his breath as he clung onto Tyler again.  We were all laughing as Tyler put Mini down on the bed and reluctantly moved away.  Lui moved in again to untangle the straps from Mini's ankles again.

"Lui hold up"  Nogla was almost singing as Lui stopped and looked over his shoulder at him. "Come on show us...the evidence" Nogla smiled at Mini.

I watched Mini pull a face as everyone moved in closer.  Lui blocked our view by standing up "oh yeah I forgot about that" he leant forward a bit still blocking the rest of us "Oh my god Tyler" he giggled and moved so we could see Mini holding the neck of his t-shirt to one side and revealing an new and extremely dark red hickey only a centimetre or two from where his shoulder met his neck.  I looked over at Tyler who looked a little guilty but also pleased with the mark he'd left on Mini.

"that's impressive" Brock stated stiffly as if trying not to laugh

"Over protective and possessive are you two dating and forgot to tell us" Nogla asked with some suspicion in his voice. 

This was why Evan and I had been hiding it for so long, all the comments and innuendo, Being so far apart all the time it would of continually reminded us that we weren't together and what we were missing out on.

Mini covered the mark with his hand and shot an accusing look at Tyler, but I'd seen something I thought shouldn't of been there for two friends marking each other, if it was what I'd thought it was these two where wanting more from each other than just friendship. "are those teeth marks?" I asked absentmindedly as I stepped forward and pulled mini's hand away, I was right, they were definitely teeth marks, I never knew Tyler was such an aggressive dominant but from how Mini was reacting he hadn't actually hurt him which made me relax a little "Wow ok...so uh...lets untangle mini's feet" I knelt down with Lui and between us we had Mini untangled within a few minutes. The atmosphere was pretty awkward so we started conversations over what we were all comfortable with such as games and schedules.   After an hour or so people started heading off to bed, it was pretty late.  Eventually leaving Myself and Evan being the only ones left in the room.  Evan had fallen asleep in the chair by the window and I was loathed to wake him up, I wanted him to have some sleep before I got him into bed.

"you want me to give you a hand getting him back to your room?" Tyler offered but I knew it wasn't needed.

"Nah he's not as drunk as you think he is" in truth Evan had only had one or two drinks, he rarely drank alcohol at all.  I noticed Mini stagger to the dresser and grab a bottle, but the way he was moving didn't seem quite right for someone who was meant to be drunk, was he faking getting drunk so that he had an excuse for his behaviour? I looked back at Tyler and smirked "just tired...and besides your going to have your hands full" I pointed over his shoulder at Mini.

"Damn it Mini" he complained and crossed the room to take the bottle off of Mini.  I watched as he wrapped and arm around Mini's waist and all but tucked him under his arm, even though Mini made a good effort at looking like he was struggling against Tyler's hold he wasn't really getting anywhere.

"Noooo...give it back" Mini whined reaching for the bottle, I had to give him credit, it was one way to get and keep Tyler's attention.

"you two make a cute couple" I chuckle waiting to see what their reaction was going to be to being called a couple.

"you too Delirious" Mini growled which shocked me a little, Had they really noticed that Evan and I had a thing?

"so you and Ev' huh...knew you where closer than you let on" Tyler was smirking which meant I had jus confirmed what he thought.  I groan inwardly, now I was going to have to explain this to Evan and hope they kept it to themselves. I moved over to Evan and shook his shoulder "Ev' wake up it's time I got you to bed" I guess this was our que to leave.  Evan slowly woke up and looked up at me with a tired smile "Tyler and Mini know" I told him and waited for the fed up mildly annoyed look in his eyes, He slowly stretched and looked over to Mini and Tyler. 

"I kind of guessed that Tyler knew...he's been giving me looks all night" Evan got to his feet and straightened his clothes, but something about him wasn't right, it was like something was missing and I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. I mean I had my suspicions but I needed more proof before I could say for sure.
