C4 Dare Date

We continued the game, Owen spin the bottle, and it pointed to Paul, Owen dared Paul to take off his shirt and do six press up.

Paul did it, we girls were drooling, Nate scoffed "You girls are foolish for drooling on that bare chest, surely if you see mine, you will all faint "he bragged.

Paul got up feeling insulted.

Paul spin the bottle it pointed to Nate.

"shit, not again"Nate grumpy

"huh dare, dare me, truth is for the weak boys and I'm a man. "

"wait, let me think, "Paul said scratching his head.

"what are you thinking of ?" Violet asked

"revenge" Paul smiled devilishly

"revenge?" we all chorused looking at each other,

*When I mean all, I meant all except Nate *

"yes" Paul shouted

"Nate I dare you to .....to date Mirabelle"

"me?"I asked

"mmm" Paul nodded his head in agreement

"Date who? no way, we still have a case to solve "

"it's a dare, you have to do it, "Paul said laughing.

now I get it, Paul used it as revenge for Nate insulting him, everyone knew I and Nate are two parallel lines that can never meet.

how dare he?

hmm but on a date with Nate isn't such a bad idea, he is my crush, and going out with your crush is AWESOME!!!!

"you got to be kidding me, I'm not going on a date with her " Nate yelled pointing at me.

"chill bro, you have to, this is a dare game as a man, you should stand by your word!, everyone did, I, Owen everyone unless you are not a man, back out !"

The room became tense, we sat quietly staring at each other.

"Ahem "Clara cleared her throat.

"I will pack the dishes to the kitchen," she said packing the plates.

"babe let's go together" her boyfriend, Owen followed.

"It's hot here, Where is the AC remote " Tina stood up, fanning herself with her hands, she left the room also looking for the remote.

Dan followed her, dragging Violet along, Violet didn't want to go but he drags her with force, Paul also left pretending he had a call.

Everyone left, leaving I and Nate behind, I knew they were up to something, how can they leave me behind with him, bad friends .

I looked up and saw Nate staring at me without even blinking his eyes, his eyes were like he is about to devour me, I felt intimidated, and I looked down immediately.

*hey what's wrong with me, why will I allow someone like him to intimidate me, 'cause he is rich ? no way, nobody can look down on me*.

I looked up staring at him too, he stares, I stares it was like a war," don't stare back when am staring at you " he said.

*wtf, he doesn't know anything, I will never back down, at least I own my eyes*

" I can do what I want with my ey..........." I didn't finish the statement, I remembered the $2m case, also I don't wanna be sued.

I stopped staring, facing down.

*Mirabelle this isn't the time to prove stubbornness, just smile yes smile like a fool * I thought perhaps he will forgive me fully.

He sighed "okay "

I looked up, everyone rushed in "Really?" they chorused.

"do you want me to change my mind " he roared.

*yay, finally! am going on a date with my celebrity crush but Nate isn't normal what if his idea of dating is me and him sitting on a bench hearing the birds chirping, and the wind rustling nooooo, I want an interesting date.

Dates with dinners, going to lovely places.

Am so f***ing happy.

********

Today is D-day, the date, l'm super excited but the thing is no dress, after scattering the whole wardrobe no dress.

I'm at my dad's house checking if I will see a pretty dress, but I saw none.

All were either faded, baggy or unattractive clothes.

"Mira, are you going somewhere important?"My dad's wife, Ella said peeping from the window.

"just mind your business, "I said almost crying, I have a date yet no clothes, shoes, or bags to put on.

I sat on the floor, buried my face in one of my faded clothes.

"hey dear Don't cry "Ella ran to my room, she sat with me petting me.

"It's okay Mira Dont cry "

"it's not okay, it's never okay, I....I...I" I couldn't complete my statement as tears flow freely on my face.

Ella embraced me.

my dad married her some years after my mom's death.

my mom's death is the most tragic moment of my life, I was ten, and she died from cancer.

I didn't like Ella when my dad brought her in, I found out that she was dating my dad before my dad married my mom.

They had a child together, a son.

The boy is way older than me, he is 26.

I have another brother, we are of the same blood, same mother and father, he is 22.

" you can tell me what's going on, "she said

she knows I will never do that, I Don't share things with her.

I Don't hate Ella don't get me wrong but the thing is I see her as someone who came to take my mom's space.

"is it school? did your boyfriend break up with you ?"

"or are you hungry?"

"That's enough, can't you see ?, I need a dress " I yelled

"oh but you don't need to shout"

I might sound rude but I was frustrated and this woman is disturbing me with her questions.

The doorbell rang, I ran outside to open the door"Daddy "I shouted but it wasn't him, it was someone else ...

TBC

I will leave you to guess

Also let's imagine Mirabelle's date with Nate; horrible, interesting, devastating, superfun, or boring.
