Chapter 11

Kiss? Really? They want me to kiss her. So they couldn't find anything else to dare me with. Hmm, immature friends.
I turn my gaze to Francesca and see her glaring at Fred who seems to be enjoying the freaking show. Her friend is also grinning i just roll my eyes. Adults who act like kids are not cute at all. It's pathetic. I knew it, these brats never say anything reasonable. They always enjoy playing with me.
Do I want to do this? Of course not. But I have to, I always keep to my word plus, there's no way I'm ever letting my dumb friends control me for one week. Fact, I'd have done despicable things, yes I don't trust their mental capacity at all. They act like twelve year old children. Isn't that like weird for 24, 25, and 26 year old adults?

Francesca's POV
What? Kiss?
Oh God, i knew those grins on their faces meant no good. What do I do now. He's not going to do it right?, Of course he's not going to do it. We dislike each other and he obviously dislikes me more. I don't wanna kiss that arrogant, despicable jerk. He's too full of himself. He couldn't give me a simple complement. He hasn't even smiled or laughed since I set my eyes on him. He just keeps on a weird blank face.
"Girl, this is going to be fun" Liza whispers in my ear. She's literally dying from excitement. And she's supposed to be my best friend. Wow, just wow.
I turn to glare at her, she's never sensible when I need her to be. She's just grinning and winking like she has a seizure or something.
"You know, if you keep on acting like this. I'm going to but an advert for a new best friend"
"You'll never find anyone like me" she said pouting. I watch as she brushes her shoulder and smirks.
I wink at her " that's the point"
Liza pouts and huffs glaring at me. Her chocolate brown eyes stare playfully at me. I notice that all the while, Sam has been staring at her. I think something is going on and I'm going to find out.
I'm so engrossed in my thoughts that I forgot about the dare, Liza's hands pinching me snaps me out of my thinking zone. I give her a glare but she's staring at something behind me. Her blonde hair has slightly covered half her face making her look like a beautiful place psychopath. I watch as she swallows hard and so I turn and my eyes look up to those intense hazel eyes.
Damien is currently standing in front of me with his hands in his tux pocket, his hair is casually rough giving it the impression that he has run his hands through it a lot of times. He's thick lashes flicker as he blinks and his lips form a thin line. His hard sharp jaw has been hardened and it seems as if he's uncomfortable.
Well, I'm uncomfortable too so don't think I wanna kiss you cause I freaking don't. He lowers himself to the couch level and bends on one knee. He leans forward and in a split second our lips collide. I hear the sound of Liza's heavy breathing and I resist the urge to roll my eyes. I'm the one getting kissed and she's the one who's nervous and panting.
The kiss is just a slight brush on the lips and none of us open our mouths. I didn't close my eyes and neither did he. We stared at each other throughout the ten seconds it lasted.
Yes, I counted. It was the most unfortunate ten seconds of my life. We pulled apart and everyone in the room started grumbling.
"Are you guys kidding me, you call that a kiss? Damien, you've not completed your dare. Do so or we'll control you for a week" Fred said frowning
Damien is still staring at me. He's face is still blank but handsomely blank if I may add. His nose is the perfect point and his jaw only has a slight subtle. He opens his mouth to say something but Fred stops him.
"You know, if you really want us to control you for one week, then we'd happily do it" Sam was talking to Damien but his eyes were focused and trained on Liza who was looking at Damien and I as if we were the only species on earth.
I turned my gaze back to Damien, I don't want to re live those uncomfortable ten seconds again and I'm sure the same goes for him so I just smile at the guys.
"In a T or D game, the one being dared to gas the right to refuse a dare or even say if he or she is satisfied. So, since I was the one being dared to, I want to say that the dare has been completed and that Damien doesn't have to do what you guys want" I watch as they all playfully glare at me. Liza is practically thinking of ways to murder me.
Damien slowly stands up and turns to the guys. He gives them a smirk which OMG is incredible and winks.
"Dare completed guys" The guys just huff and go over to him. They start talking about something I think is business. Liza smacks my arms and pouts at me.
"You just ruined my dreams"
"Gladly" we giggle at that and smile
"Are you having fun? I know you wanted to let loose and stuff but we got trapped here in this VIP room" I say giving her a sad smile
"Are you kidding me Francesca? I'm having a blast, this is a freaking blast. I have always wanted to come to this VIP room. You can't even pay for it. It's freaking by invitation and no one except them gets in. It's so fun, the drinks, food and guys" she said the last one winking and I just roll my eyes.
"I wanna go home now, I'm tired, hmm do you wanna come with me. We could have a nice sleep over and movie night. It will be super fun" I say grinning at Liza
" Of course, but it's 12:30 am. Aren't you feeling sleepy. We can do this tomorrow night. I want us to have enough fun since tomorrow's a small"
" Hmm, that's true. Okay let's get going" We pick up our bags and make our way to the guys. Liza blushes when Sam looks up at her. I scrunch up my nose in disgust. Hmm, I'll talk to her about this later. I need to know what's brewing up between these two.
"We had fun guys but we have to go. Liza and I are tired so we need to get some rest. See you some other time and thanks for the invitation" Liza smiles and waves at them while I just smile and turn to leave after Sam, Chris and Fred say their goodbyes grinning.
"Wait a minute" an all to farmiliar voice says behind me.
I turn to see Damien standing right behind me. "I'll take you both home. I'm already leaving" with that he turns to the guys and nods at them. He asks them to pack his things and send them over to him tommorow.
Damien starts heading towards the door and Liza and I just follow behind him. Outside the VIP room is another sight to behold. Drunk people dancing, passing out, and doing all sorts of things. Two bouncers appear beside us and nod at Damien who nods back. They stand beside Liza and I and lead us outside the club.
We follow Damien to the car and that's when I realize something.
"Liza, didn't you bring your car?" I ask Liza
"Nope, I guessed you'd being yours or I'll call a cab since I was too drunk to drive" she answers. Liza slides into the back door of Damien's Lamborghini and I sit at the passenger seat since I still remember what he said about not being my driver. Damien starts the car and we drive off.
"Hmm Damien how many places have you traveled to before?" Liza questions Damien. I realize they've never really spoken before and I roll my eyes.
Damien raises his brows and says " a lot actually, I can't really count" was his simple answer.
Liza please don't ask anymore questions. She smiles and winks at me through the rearview mirror and I sigh. She's not done.
"That's nice, do you usually go there on business meetings?" I inwardly groan. Damien just keeps on a blank face but nods.
"You know Francesca has also traveled a lot, she spent some numbers of years in France"
"Liza that's enough. He's driving, let him focus" I say glaring at her through the rearview mirror.
Damien says with a smirk "I'm not complaining"
And that, ladies and gentlemen is how they ended up speaking about me as if I wasn't there at all.
