Drake seemed to suddenly remember his girlfriend was still there. Like waking from a trance, he dropped his hand from Sienna’s waist and stepped back.

His friends, following his gaze to Thalia, scrambled to smooth things over.

His attention snapped back to Sienna.

“Dare,” she said, throwing Drake a loaded glance over her shoulder.

“Alright, pick from the dare cards.” Someone produced a stack of cards.

Sienna drew one casually. The reader’s eyes went wide, darting between Sienna, Drake, and Thalia.

A girl peeked at the card and gasped.

“What is it?”

“What’d she get?”

“Kiss any guy in the room of your choice,” the reader announced, shooting Drake a nervous glance.
