Dare (25)

"Truth," said Taylor, not wanting to get up from his comfortable position.

"If you were stranded on a desert Island with only one food to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be?" asked Zac.

"Pizza," Taylor said, rolling his eyes and looking at Angel. She smiled at Taylor.

"Your turn," said Isaac, looking at Taylor.

"Okay, Angel, truth or dare?" he asked.

"Truth."

"If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?" he asked.

Angel looked at him strangely, but she responded, "probably Hawaii," she said, stroking his face.

"Isaac, truth or dare?" asked Angel.

"I'm going to be cool and do a dare," said Isaac.

"Fine then, Ike. I dare you to run out in the hall with your hair in a high ponytail and toothpaste around your mouth so that it looks like you're frothing. Then you have to go up to the first person you see and try to convince them that you are a fortune teller."

Isaac looked off into space for a moment, trying to decide if it was worth all the trouble. He thought it would be fun, so he spoke up, "Sure."

Isaac completed the task without any major difficulties, and he returned to the room to re-brush his hair and get rid of the toothpaste. When he was situated on the bed again, he asked, "so, Tay, truth or dare?"

"Uh...dare," he said, knowing full well that whatever he would have to do would most likely involve Angel.

As he predicted, Isaac replied, "Taylor, I dare you to go in the closet with Angel (if she will agree)," Isaac paused to watch Angel nod her head, "and you have to stay in there for fifteen minutes. We aren't going to tell you when we're going to open the door. What do you say?"

"Alright," he acquiesced. When he and Angel had shut the door behind them and were safely in the darkness, he held her close to him.

"I love you, Angel," he whispered into her ear. They stood together, just holding each other tightly. He tilted her head up, and kissed her gently on the lips. Her lips melted into his, and they stood there, locked in each other's embrace for a long time. Angel pulled away from Taylor, but she quickly changed her mind. She let her tongue play with his, and he ran his fingers through her hair tenderly. She was sure the fifteen minutes must be up by now, but she didn't say anything to Taylor about it. He pulled away from the kiss, and he put his lips softly on her cheek. He kissed her gently and relocated his lips so that they were now gently sucking on her neck.

"Tay, do you think you could not suck on my neck. I don't really mind it anywhere else, but I don't think it would fly with my parents if they suddenly realized their supposedly single daughter has a bunch of hickies."

"Sure," he said pressing his lips to hers.

Just then, the door opened, and the person Angel least expected to be there was standing in the doorway, smiling.
