I scowl in frustration.

I lost the Rock Paper Scissors game. Now they have to go first. Damn it.

"If I can't shoot it right, don't kill me." I said under my breath.

"If I get too drunk, don't let me in your room again." He said.

I chuckled softly and he gazed at me over his shoulder. "What's inside these cups anyways?"

"Gin and tonic."

Whoa wait. We're actually having a conversation right now. We were actually talking so gently and no voices yelling or any other stuff. Wow.

"Will they get me drunk?" I asked.

"If you're a first timer then yes."

I gulped.

"I'm glad you came tonight though." He said out of the blue but he didn't look at me when he said it.

I pulled my head up to him right after he told me those words. I wanted to ask him why he said that. I wanted to ask him why he wants me to be here tonight. I wanted to thank him and hug him for getting back my coin from Baxter in a brutal way. But I just smiled at myself.

"Let's start!" The announcer said.

Oh god.

I feel my heart pounding very hard and my hands getting even colder right when he said that we were about to start. I just wish I won't get totally wasted and won't get totally freaky. I've never been drunk.

"You wanna go first or not?" Nick asked while he handed me the pingpong ball.

"You go first." I said.

"We haven't had our dare just yet." Penny said out of the blue.

"Oh right. Here, pick from this magic fishbowl." The announcer handed it to Penny while she fished her hand into the sheets of folded papers inside.

God I just wish it won't be dreadful.

Penny starts opening the small piece of paper and she smiles right away when she read it. Finally she showed it to everyone, "Losers will run around the frat house entirely naked."

The entire crowd started howling and cheering after they heard it. I looked over Tracy and she quickly looked scared for me and most especially for Nick. I was shocked. I know Nick was surprised about it too. I can't run around this place naked. I have my goddamn dignity with me.

I can't lose.

I can't lose.

"What have I gotten myself into?" I muffled softly.

"This is exciting." Penny smiles.

Nick groans softly.

"Let the game begin." The announcer said while grinning at me. I think he knows I'm most definitely to lose.

Troy was the first one to throw across our cups and it was a miss! I jumped. Penny stared at him angrily and he quickly said he was sorry about it.

"Go Nick." I cheered for him.
