We arrived at the party and we went inside the large spacious place. Mackenna and Angela were right, there was no stench of alcohol in the airy atmosphere.

"Hey guys." Said Cephas as he led us to the teen party. I spotted Nathaniel and Belinda, doing what the always do and we later met Nolan.

"Hey." He chirped mostly greeting Angela.

"Hi" we replied.

"Um..Mackenna, why don't we go for a drink?" I nudged her,

"I was about to ask the same thing." She giggled and we wondered off to the noisy hall and we caught up with Angelo.

Angelo scanned Mackenna from top to toe and whistled in a flirtatious manner causing her face to redden. But Mackenna being Mackenna rolled her eyes at him and he smirked.

"Hey Ariel." He acknowledged my presence in a friendly manner.

"Hi Angelo." I replied in the same manner.

"I wonder how many Disney movies you've watched." Mackenna asked shaking her head.

"Mind if I steal her?" Angelo asked.

"No need, she's yours." I smiled as he chuckled wrapped his hands around her waist and took her away. I took some juice and plopped into a chair taking sips.

***

I broke away from Belinda and scooted away from her. I'm tired of trying to get Pamela out of my mind by kissing Belinda.

It doesn't work anymore and it's not even like it used to work, I'll never make out with Belinda again, it's pointless.

About time..

"Oh babe why?" She whined getting closer to me.

"Belinda move away from me." I demanded running my fingers through my hair completely frustrated.

"Why should I move away from you my love?" She purred in her annoying voice and she stroked my arm.

"Just get away." I said and stood up on my feet.

"Is it because of that nerdy bitch?" She asked scowling.

Um..Yes?

"Belinda, I don't have time for this move aside." I ordered.

"You can't ditch me because of her." She said.

"Well watch me." I scoffed and shoved past her. I heard her yelling my name in her already high pitched voice but I ignored her and continued walking to look for Pamela.

Wait, why am I looking for her?

I found her sitting alone and she was looking around. She looked so innocent but gorgeous at the same time in her outfit.

Our eyes met, but she looked away and continued to sip her juice. Some random guy then approached her and she looked uncomfortable.

Hell no!

I groaned internally and moved closer towards them and stood beside her.

"Excuse me, do you need anything?" I asked glaring at him and he surrended and walked away and I turned to Pamela.

"Why do you like seducing boys?!" I growled and she flinched gasping. When she did that,the part of her sweater that was on her right shoulder fell over, revealing a part of her smooth skin and red cheeks.

I felt my cheeks warm up as well as she fixed it.

"Stop. Torturing. Me." I gritted running my fingers through my hair as she looked at me in utter confusion.

Wait, why did I say she tortures me? I'm the one who tortures her..So why did I say that?

"Pamela, come let's play truth or dare," Angela appeared in front of us and said.

She scowled at me and led her back. I decided to go out for a while, before coming to play the game.

***

Why did Nathaniel say I should stop torturing him? I don't torture him, so what does he mean?

Angela led me to where half of the students were gathered around in a circle to play truth or dare. I sat in between Angela and Mackenna asked the game continued.

It was really fun, a certain time the bottle ended on Angela and she was dared to peck Nolan as the students cheered.

After a few more spins, Nathaniel joined us and sat directly opportunity to me. And guess what? He was looking at me and do you know how I found out?

I was looking back at him!

After several more spins it finally ended on me And the other end was a girl in my history class, Joy.

"Pamela truth or dare?" She asked. I have my own secrets and there is no way I would want anyone to know.

"Dare." I dared and she sighed thinking of a dare and she found one.

"Straddle the person directly opposite to you,hold the front collars of his or her shirt and look into his eyes for 10 seconds."

This was a well planned dare.

The students cheered delightfully as I blushed. I shook my head and looked at the direction where Nathaniel had a blank face.

"There's an alternative" She said and I was eager to hear.

"Slap your friend." She dared.

Ok there was no way I was going to do that, I'm a non-violent person.

''So what's it gonna be?" Joy asked. I internally groaned and muttered "The first one." And the students cheered harder as Cephas got a chair.

Nathaniel and I both stood up and moved towards the chair and he sat down.

How come he's not bothered?

I sucked my breath quietly and my face didn't stop burning as I awkwardly straddled him and held his shirt.

Before we began our stare, his eyes flicked to my lips, then back to my eyes. His black onyx eyes bored into my blue ones and trapped it in.

His eyes were calm and peaceful, but it was as if a particular type of emotion I could not decipher was hidden in it.

Was it..want?

"You guys I said 10 seconds not 10 minutes." Joy sniggered at us and I got up from him as we went back into the game.

After a few more spins it reached me again.

God, Why?

The other end was on Cephas and I learnt my lesson, never choose dare when no one knows you have a secret.

"Truth or dare?" I was asked.

"Truth." I replied and he sighed.

"What is the first letter of your crushs' name?" He asked and I nearly choked in the air. I began to think of how to hide the truth but I can't lie so..

"D." I answered truthfully and glanced briefly at Nathaniel's direction.

Wrong move.

I would have preferred if he taunted me instead of this look.

Pure rage was not hidden from his eyes as the guys with 'D' as their names first letter gasped.

"I'm pretty sure it's me...girls love me." Dan bragged.

If girls love you, then I'm no longer a girl, because a lady.

He earned a secret...heated glare? from Nathaniel and he didn't seem to notice. I got up from the game to use the washroom as an excuse to escape.

When I took about a few more steps towards the washroom, someone snatched me from behind and caged me to the wall.

"What's the name of your crush?" He demanded.

"Does he.." He said cupping my cheek and gently stroking it with his thumb and staring at me with a darkened gaze.

"Does he have an effect on you like I do?" He asked and the only way my lips were helpful was by trembling.

"Can he.." He said snaking his hand around my waist and pulling me towards him so I had to place my hands on his chest making my breathing uneven. He hid his head in my neck as I felt his warm breath on it.

"Can he make you feel the way I make you feel?" He asked stroking his finger gently up and down on my spine, leaving goose bumps and sparks to gush in me.

"Talk Pamela." He whispered. I gasped when he traced his thumb at the hem of my sweater and my stomach lurched.

"Na..Nathaniel pl..please I'm begging you..stop." I begged breathlessly when his fingers started crawling on my skin.

"Should I? Because I want to know if your crush can make you feel this way." He whispered looking down into my eyes and my lips sealed.

"Hm?" He asked squeezing me more to him by my back.

"Come on Pamela, tell me...should I stop?" He said when his palm was finally resting on my bare back making more goose flesh rush me.

"Y..yes please." I begged and gasped again when his hand moved up further on my back and even slipped under my bra.

"I can't." He muttered. "Push me away yourself, I'm giving you the go ahead." He groaned. I didn't understand why I couldn't push him away.

"Why can't you push me away? Huh? Ain't I the only person who can make you feel this way?" He asked placing his chin on my head whiles my faces and hand were on his chest.

When he removed his chin off my head, I arched my head back gently to the wall, making my neck more visible because of how nervous and breathless I was.

"Pamela, I'm asking you a question." He whispered huskily making my breath hitch in my throat and he pressed me more to him.

"Na.. Nathaniel please stop this...please." I pleaded in a squeaky dry voice.

"Stop? But I told you to push me away yourself." He groaned his face neared the bare skin on my neck and I visibly quivered.

"How can you have a crush when I make you feel this way?" He whispered. "Tell me Pamela." He said and I gasped again because his hands fidgeted with the hook of my bra, and the goose bumps on my skin grew bigger, making my stomach flutter with billions of butterflies.

"Don't you..." He trailed off. I felt his nose inhale my perfume before it slided the skin on my neck, down to its hollow till it was taken over by his soft lips which slightly pecked my skin from there to a portion of my chest and I prayed my heart won't quit and jump out of my chest.

"Nathaniel..please." I muttered but I don't think he heard me because he was busy pulling my skin in between his teeth so I had to purse my lips to prevent any sounds from leaving my lips.

"Don't you know.." He muttered on my skin.

"That you're not supposed to love any one apart from-" He abruptly stopped talking and froze at what he was doing when he said this. He released me and took three steps away from me with shock in his eyes.

"What the fuck has gone into me." He muttered panting as he run his fingers through his hair and I tried to catch my breath as well. He glanced at me with rage,..nervousness and another inexplicable emotion.

"What the fuck have you done to me?" He growled and I silently stared at him. He raced both his hands into his hair and stomped out of my sight with his eyes slightly widened. But that was not what my mind was on. My mind was on what he said before he released me.

Apart from who?
