Won't Amount to Much

Today had been a long day on my feet, and I was exhausted. When I had signed up for this job, I had figured I would be sitting down behind a table, selling merchandise to eager band fans. Not that I was complaining, but I seriously need to consider buying some supportive shoes, or at least inserts for my current ones.

I was laying back on the couch - we had yet to pull out the bed for the night - when Jake, Ashley, CC, Andy, and Jinxx came on the bus. CC held up a couple bottles with an amber liquid inside them, alcohol. "Who's ready to get drunk?" he says to Mara, Bri, and I. Mara and Bri give a short "Yeah!" as they get up.

Jinxx turns to me as they pouring the alcohol, whiskey, into red plastic cups and asks, "You sure you don't want any?"

"I'm good, and underage," I give him the same excuse I had given Andy last night.

"We won't tell," he counters with a chuckle, same as Andy had the night before.

"Man, she doesn't have to," Andy says as he approaches me, carrying two cups. "They bought some soda to mix with the drinks. I pored you a cup," he says, handing me a cup.

"Thanks," I say with a smile as he takes a seat next to me on the couch. A moment later the bus starts moving. We have a ways to go to get to our next venue so we were leaving tonight. That ment no party, hence the band bringing alcohol on the bus for our own mini party.

"So, who's up for a little truth or dare?" Ashley asks as he takes a seat on the opposite couch of me, next to Mara. According to her, they didn't hook up last night, but things seem to be heading that way.

"Truth or dare? You realize that's in like every fanfiction with you guys, right?" Bri asks.

"And how would you know that?" Jinxx asks, sitting next to her on the floor.

"I'm not gonna lie, I've read some. I'm not ashamed of it," she says. If it had been me I wouldn't have said that, I wish I could be that open and outgoing.

"Dude, we have to play it though. I'm not tired enough for bed yet, and besides we have like forever until we reach the next venue," CC says enthusiastically.

"Which we could be using to sleep, but who cares," says Mara.

"Sure, why not," Andy adds.

"Oh! And we are playing the strip version. So basically if you don't want to do the dare, you have to take off one article of clothing," Ashley adds.

"So, who goes first?" Jake asks.

"I will!" Bri says, "Darlene, truth or dare?"

"What? Who said I was playing?" I protest.

"I did! Now answer Bri's question!" Mara says.

"Wait, if you volunteered, then shouldn't I dare you first?" I ask.

"Stop stalling and answer the damn question!" Mara yells at me. I love the girl to death, but damn, she can be fucking demanding.

"Um," Come on, Darlene! Truth could have you reveal something weird, while dare could be something weirder. Or neither could involve slowly stripping. Don't be weird! "Uh, truth."

"Okay," Bri takes a moment to think it over, then asks, "Now imagine the love of your life has been turned into an animal, and the only way to turn them back would be to fuck them. What animal would cause you the least psychological damage?"

"Can't I just leave them as they are?" I ask.

"No. They're the love of your life. You have to fuck the animal."

I take a drink of my coke to stall. "I guess a monkey of some type. Their kinda the most human like," I answer. I begin blushing like crazy. That was really weird. But now it's my turn to ask a question. Or get revenge with Mara for making me play. "Mar, truth or dare?"

Mara, being ever the confident person, easily answers, "Dare."

"One sec," I say as I get up and grab something from the small cabinet. I return a moment later with a jar of Nutella and a spoon. "Ashley, do you mind helping me with this dare?"

"Um… sure…?" he answers reluctantly.

"Okay, pull your hair back," I say as I hand him a hair tie. He does as I say, and a moment later I am at his side, tilting his head to the side to expose his neck, and slathering Nutella on his neck before he can even protest.

"No! Dar! Not cool!" Mara protests, already knowing the date.

"Stop stammering and lick the damn Nutella!" I say imitating her words from earlier. I try imitating her voice, and end up laughing half way through. She knows I'm joking, but she still gives me a look, letting me know I'll pay for this later.

"This'll be fun," Ashley says with a laugh, causing a tiny bit of the chocolatly goodness move down his neck. Mara rolls her eyes before bringing her tongue down to meet Ashley's neck.

"Make sure to get all of it!" I instruct. Mara looks up to give me a glare, which I return with a serious face as Bri and all the guys are bending over in laughter. Mara gets back to Ashley's neck, and after a minute of licking hi neck, she resorts to sucking off the little bits still on there.

"I better not have any hickey's tomorrow!" Ashley jokes, and less then a second later he yelps. She bit down on his neck, harder than somebody should for a simple love bite. After another moment she pushes off of Ashley.

"My turn!" she says, she has a look of revenge in her eyes. "Andy! Truth or dare?" she asks.

"Might as well do dare," he says with a small smirk. It's a cute smirk.

Mara quickly gets up, opens the mini fridge, and when she doesn't find what she's looking for, she turns to the cabinet. "Um, the Nutella's in here, but I'm not licking it off anyone's neck. Besides. I think you have to be a little more original," Andy says, but Mara doesn't respond. She returns a moment later and opens up her duffel bag. She pulls out a can of CheezWhiz.

"Dar, stick your tongue straight out," she orders. I do what she says, I'm pretty sure I know what she's doing, but I don't think I can argue. She squirts some CheezWhiz on my tongue and orders me not to swallow it. "Okay, Andy, using your mouth, get the CheezWhiz of Darlene's tongue."

I swear I'm going to kill her, but at the same time I should thank her. As far as Andy's concerned, I'm just going to kill her. He gives a quick chuckle, before he leans towards me. He closes his mouth around my tongue, as if it were a really weird French kiss, and using his tongue he gets the CheezWhiz of my tongue. As he slowly returns to his seat, "Sorry," he murmurs.

"It's okay," I say as my cheeks burn bright red.

The game continues for a while. CC is forced to tell everyone about the biggest ball he had ever seen, which he of course takes the wrong way, then Andy tells him he meant something like a kick ball.

CC asks Jake if he's ever gone commando, to which he answers yes, but when CC tries to get more information, Jake tells him that is another turn entirely.

Jake dares Ashleyto kiss each girl and rank their kissing skills. Mara is ranked first, Bri second, and I am last, but to be honest I didn't even try. Andy jokes that Mar and Bri must be pretty good based on what he experienced earlier.

Ashley dares Jinxx to smear jelly under one armpit, and peanut butter under the other. Then he has him wipe each armpit off with a slice of bread, and eat the sandwich he creates. When he tried complaining Jake pipes in that it's not the most disgusting thing Jinxx has eaten.

Jinxx asks Bri if she would marry the current guy she was dating, to which she responds that she isn't dating anyone, causing Jinxx to smirk a little bit.

Bri commences by asking Mara what she would do to a member of the opposite sex for a Klondike bar to which she responds, "Nothing. Those things are fucking nasty."

Mara turns to Ashley and dares him to let herself, Bri and I do his makeup. He groans, and decides to one of his free passes and strips off his shirt.

Ashley then turns to me. "Darlene, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

"Okay. Are you a virgin?"

"Um it depends on how you look at it."

"Are you one of those girls who reclaimed their virginity after sleeping with someone or something?"

"She already answered your question," Andy protested.

"Not fully," Ash counters.

"Something like that," I say. Mara gives me a sympathetic look, but we both know there's nothing she can do.

"I hate to be a jackass, but if you don't give a straight answer you have to strip something," Ash says.

I roll my eyes and look to my feet. Fuck. I already took off my shoes and socks before we started playing this game. I sigh as I look down at my body and my outfit of the day. My white Sleeping with Sirens tank seems long enough to cover my ass, so I strip off my black shorts and throw them off the side of the couch.

After that I claim I'm tired, but nobody else seems to agree with me. Sadly they are sitting on my bed, so I can't exactly sleep here. "You can sleep in my bunk," Andy says. I try to protest, but he insists. "Which one is yours?" I ask.

"Oh, you'll know it when you see it," says Jake.

I thank him and grab my duffel bag to change. As I walk away, I constantly tug at my shirt, not wanting to show everyone my blue boy shorts. I quickly change into my pajamas in the bathroom, and head back to the bunks. Jake was right. As I enter the room of bunks, I notice a bed with batman sheets, and recognize it as Andy's. I climb under the sheets, and within a minute, I'm submerged in sleep.
