I need to get my head in the game.

Sure, I want Hunter.

But Hunter is off with Carpe Diem.

Hunter isn't happening.

This party, me having fun tonight—that is happening.

Steve nods. "Shoot."

"Truth or dare," I ask.

"Truth." He grins.

Okay, let's get this started. "How many people at this party have you fucked."

His expression gets sheepish. "One."

"Who?" I ask.

"Not your turn anymore," he says.

Collin leans in to whisper. "You remember the redhead in the kitchen?"

Not at all.

He moves closer. So his breath is warming my ear. "It was her."

My shoulders tense, but I shake it off.

Steve asks one of the girls something about when she lost her virginity.

She dares her friend to kiss Steve.

Then the friend turns to Collin and he picks dare.

"I dare you to kiss Emma." She smiles like she just aced a test in her hardest subject.

It's a standard dare.

It's totally normal.

It's totally fine.

He looks to me. "What do you think?"

This is where I say yes. "Not here."

"Ooooh." Steve claps. "Fucking escalating. Nice."

I bite my tongue. "I better refill first."

"Yeah." Collin stands and offers his hand.

I take it. Let him slide his arm around my waist as he leads me to the kitchen.

I swallow my last drop of rum and coke.
