I Dare You

Right when I thought all hope was gone, I was being pulled towards the surface.

Once my head appeared above the water I gasped for air, was pulled out, and laid on the ground.

"Holy shit! You okay Aph?," asked Janice as she kneed in front of me.

I nodded, unable to speak, coughing, and regaining my breath. After I finally put myself together, I noticed the person that rescued me was still holding me. I was pretty sure it was Mikey, in till I turned and looked into some icy-blue eyes. Fuck. Andy.

Once I noticed it was him I pushed him away and stood up. Okay confused here. First he pushes me into the pool and now he saves me?! Sometimes I question why I'm even straight. I should just become full on lesbian!

"A 'thank you' would be great," winked Andy. Is he serious?!

"How about my foot up your ass! Why would I thank you for almost killing me?!".

"You should be grateful I even went in there to save you! I had to ruin my clothes". He looked down at himself and started removing his shirt. Don't look at him! Don't look at him! Don't.....too late. My God, does his skin look soft. Snap out of it!

"Aw, poor baby ruined his clothes! You're just lucky I'm not a fuckin' man, because I would've kicked you ass a long time ago instead of dealing with you bullshit everyday!". I pushed him and walked away with Janice and Mikey close behind me.

I angrily pushed my way through people and accidentally bumped into Kimberly, causing her to spill her drink on my chest.

"Oh my, God! I am so sorry!," she said as she grabbed some napkins and started wiping the drink off of me.

This made the whole situation awkward. Especially because Janice looked jealously at me. I gave her a 'sorry' looked, but she just rolled her eyes. Kimberly looked up and stared at Janice and I.

"Why are you two dripping wet?,"she raised her eyebrow.

"Those football jerks threw Janice and I in the pool," I crossed my arms, angrily. Why did I have to fall for him?

"What? I wonder why they're so mean to you guys. The two of you, come with me to my room. I'll lend you some clothes".

She grabbed me by my hand and dragged me with her. We walked up the stairs and stood outside the second room to the left. She took a key out of her bra and opened the door. Wow. I looked around and saw posters of some of my favorite bands and I just don't mean a few. Her room is enormous.

"Whoa! This is your room?," I asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, but please don't tell anyone! This is the reason I keep it locked when ever I have sleepovers or parties. If the rest of the cheerleaders finds out they'll kick me off the squad for sure!".

"Come on! We might be evil, but not that evil. Love the your room by the way," said Janice as she twirled.

"Thank you. Here, you can wear these". She handed us the clothes. Right as we were about to change, Kimberly starts undressing.

"Wow! You giving us a strip tease?," Janice winked. Kimberly laughed.

"No, silly! I need to change, that dress is too itchy". Soon enough, Janice and I were in new clothes, waiting for Kimberly to put on a shirt. Mikey came in and stared widely at Kim.

"Oh my, gosh!," Mikey yelled in amazement as he ran over to her. Kimberly yelled at the top of her lungs.

"These are perfect!," he said as he grabbed her breast.

"Stop touching me! Help me guys!," she yelled, slapping Mikey's hands.

"It's okay Kimberly. He's gay," I stated. I'm pretty sure that gives him the right to do a lot of things.

"Oh!," she sighed in releif," perfect for what?".

"In the future for when I get my sex change. These are gonna be the size of my breast". He kept jiggling and examining them.

"Stop raping the poor girls boobs Mikey. Those are someone else's property". I pulled his hands away. He raised his eyebrow in confusion. I kept moving my eyes from Janice to him in til her got the hint.

"Sorry, just making sure they were truly perfect," he smiled.

"Did I pass?," asked Kimberly as she put on a shirt. He smiled and gave her two thumbs up.

The rest of the party was amazing. We made sure to stay away from Andy and his gang. We danced and yelled like manics. Janice and I danced with Kimberly, Mikey, and Jayy. Janice would occasionally grab Kimberly by the waist and dance with her and Kimberly went along with it, by rapping her arms around her neck. The party didn't end in till four in the morning. We decided to stay in Kimberly's house and sleep it off.

*School, Lunch*

"I hooked up with Angie and Martha at Kim's party," said Ashley as he showed all of us some of him and the girls.

Ashley is the player of the group. The group meaning Ashley, Ronnie, Gerard, and I. We don't usually hang out with the rest of the football team, because we don't have a lot in common with them like we do with each other. As long as we get girls and play our favorite sport.

"Dude, you have to tell me your secret," said Gerard. Gerard is brain of the group. Apart from being a football player, he is a sick artist, and knows how to handle things in a flash.

"Don't flatter yourself too much, Ash,"laughed Ronnie. Ronnie is the muscle of the group and a pretty amazing rapper. Not to mention, has some pretty awesome tattoos.

"Do I heard jealousy?," Ashley teased. Considering the fact that Ashley is the player of the group, he has a different girl every week. Pretty soon we're gonna run out of girls who haven't slept with him in this school. Well, except one, the undeniably sexy Aphrodite herself. Sure, we treat her like shit, but God do we want her. Even though she doesn't know it, all the girls here envy her. Especially Scout.

"Dude!," Ashley yelled as he waved his hands in my face.

"What?".

"What's wrong with you?".

"Sorry I was just thinking of someone".

"Oh really? And who might that be?".

"Aphrodite".

"Oh well, since I completed my dare on getting the girls, it's Andy's turn".

"My dare?".

"Since you are thinking of Aphrodite, I dare you....to fuck her,"Ashley smirked. I immediately started laughing. Aphrodite sleep with me? That's probably the last thing on her mind.

"What's so funny?".

"You're fuckin' joking right?".

"No. I'm dead serious".

"Seriously? She's like a saint dude and do you really think she'll wanna fuck me after what happened last night?".

"It doesn't matter. You have to find a way. Take all the time you need and do everything you can". I can't believe this. I have to do it anyways.

"Alright then, I accept".

Just to make everything clear, we have been doing this for about 2 years now. We each take turns giving each other dares and if you don't go through with it, you have to cut your hair and I'm not planning on that anytime soon. My hair is the way I like it and the way the girls love it. None of us have dropped a bet, which is sad. I really want to see someone bald.

"So when do I start?," I asked. Ronnie looked behind me ans smirked.

"Now!". He grabbed me by the shoulders and spun me around. There she was, opening her locker. Ronnie pushed me and I started walking towards her.

*Aphrodite's POV*

Stupid locker. Open. Open! I command you to..oh, it opened! Where's is my.. there it is! My history book. I grabbed it and stuffed it in my backpack.

"Hey beautiful," said Andy as he leaned on the locker next to mine. What does this fucktard want now?

"What?," I said.

"I just wanted to come say hi and to tell you how amazing you look in that shirt". Really? My shirt? I laughed and shook my head.

"I wish I can say the same for you".

"That's very hurtful, you know that". He placed both his hands over his heart.

I sarcastically gasped.

"You have feelings? Since when?".

"Since I started having feeling for you". Classic one. I looked to my right to see the rest of his gang staring at us. They looked away one they caught me looking at them. Feelings for me, my ass!

"Andy, baby, do me a favorite".

"Anything for you, darling".

"Leave me the fuck alone and leave me out of your games between you and those fuckers!," I gave them the finger, slammed my locker and walked away. Unfortunately not far enough, because Andy grabbed me by my arm.

"What do you want from me?!".

"What can I do for me to prove to you I'm being serious?". Ugh! I looked around and rested my eyes on Gerard. I smirked and looked Andy dead in the eye. Let's see how serious you are.

"Punch Gerard in the face".

"Okay". Without hesitation, he walked over to Gerard and punched him. Gerard just stood there in shock as Andy made his way back to me.

"Believe me now?".

"Nope". I gave the Gerard the finger as I made my way to class.

*Andy POV

* Well, that went great for a first try....right? I can tell she's gonna be a hard cookie to crumble. I watched her as she turned the corner and I walked over to the group.

"That was very nice of you, Andy. Now you ruined my face," said Gerard as he rubbed his face.

"Well, Ronnie did say to do whatever I can to get her and she wanted me to punch you in the face," I smirked at my handy work on his face. God, I'm good at punches.

"You're just lucky you're my friend, if not, you would've been on the ground by now".

"Sure".

"So, how'd it go?," Ronnie smirked.

"She just used me to punch Gerard in the face, but don't worry. I'll get her eventually".

*Aphrodite POV* What was that about? The water must've gone to his head. I made my way to my history class. Which reminds me, I need to learn how to swim. Isn't that sad? A seventeen year old teen who doesn't know how to swim. I walked into class and sat down next to Janice.

"Hello there, sexy," Janice winked," Did you do your homework?".

"Nope, but something weird happened".

"Oh, gossip! Do tell!".

"Andy...might have...hit on me. He even punched Gerard in the face for me".

Janice gasped," In the face?! That's really deep bro".

"I wonder why thought. First he pushed me in the pool and now he's hitting on me. I think he does drugs". Lots and lots of drugs.

"But he did save you".

"Okay class! Settle down!," said Mrs. Henderson, our history teacher, as she walked in.

"I know that. I just...think it's weird".

*After School, Andy's POV*

"Alright dude! See you tomorrow!," I yelled towards Ashley. I got in my car and started my way home. I need to find a way to get Aphrodite. As much as I hate her, I need to have her and not just for the dare, but for my own pleasure. There's no way she not a vrigin and when that day comes, she'll always come back to me. They always do. As I turned the corner, I saw Aphrodite walking with Janice. Just my luck.

*Aphrodite's POV*

"No he didn't!," I yelled at Janice as we walked home. The whole time we've been arguing about season eight of American Idol and who deserved to win.

"Come on! Kris Allen was straight out the better singer. That's why he won!".

"Are you kidding me? Did you hear how Adam's voice sounds? It's like...a blessing from God. Kris Allen can't do what he does".

"Whatever you say, but Allen still won".

"He may have won the battle, but Adam won the war".

Just then a car pulled up next to us. Are we getting kidnapped? The window rolled down and it was Andy. Not again.

"Hey beautiful! Want a ride?," he smiled. Oh, that smile! Stop it!

"Uh, no. I'm walking with..," I looked to my right and saw I was alone. I saw Janice running away.

"Janice! What the fuck?!".

"Have fun!," she yelled. Oh, I'm so kicking her ass!

"So I guess it's just you and me".

"No, it's just me".

"Come on. Just give me one chance. I promise I won't do anything to hurt you".

"Really, because what happened on Saturday says otherwise". He chuckled and removed his seatbelt. Oh no! He is gonna kidnap me! He climbed out his car and stood right in front of me. Wow is he tall.

"Look Aphrodite, I'm sorry about what happened that day. I didn't mean for it to go that far," he grabbed my hand and placed it on his chest," and I promise I will never do that again. Just give me this one chance to show you I'm being serious".

I looked into his eyes, but I couldn't read them. Is he being serious? Should I give him a chance? Ugh, why must he be so cute?!

"Ugh! Fine! But only for this one time!". I hope I don't regret this. He smiled widely and kissed my hand.

"Thank you!". He ran over to his car and opened his door for me. I slowly climbed in and put on the seatbelt. He climb in and started driving.

"So, how was your day?," he asked.

"Good, yours?". This is weird.

"Great actually! Found out I have an A in Chemistry". He's smart?

"Wow, great job!".

"Thank you. How's your family? Haven't seen them in a while".

Confused? You should be. Andy and I were best friends. Middle school grade was the hell breaker. He completely stopped talking to me, ignored me, and started picking on me. He would come over to my house and we'd have sleepovers. I guess once you get into high school it's all about popularity.

"There good. It's just Crystal, my dad, and I".

"What happened to your mom?".

"She left us".

"Sorry to hear that".

"It's no biggie".

*Andy's POV*

Why would her mom leave them? I knew she loved them a lot. She more interesting than I thought.

"No biggie? I remember when our moms would hang out, she'd always talk about you guys non-stop. Why would she leave?".

"She found a guy with a lot of money and just left with us".

"She's wrong to leave you guys like that. We're here".

*Aphrodite's POV* I

'm opening up to him too much.

"Thanks for the ride," I smiled. He smiled, got out the car, and opened the door for me. He reached out his hand and helped me out the car. He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer. What is he doing?

"I miss you, you know that". I laughed and looked down. This guy.

"Really?".

"I miss your smile, your laugh.....Everything". I looked in his eyes and just stared at him. Please tell me you're joking.

"I should probably go inside," I removed his arms and started walking away. He suddenly pulled me toward him again and placed a kiss on my cheek.

"See you tomorrow," he smiled widely, climbed in his car, and drove off. Wow, I need to have him.

*Andy's POV* That went very well. I smiled at my success and suddenly heard my phone ring.

"Hello?".

"Andy, dude. Where you at?," asked Ronnie.

"Just dropped off Aphrodite at her house".

"Really? How'd it go?".

"Let's just say I have her wrapped around my finger".
