  Summary

  “This dare involves both of you.”

  “What why?” Will pushes off the wall, clearly exasperated. “The bottle didn’t even land on me! Why do I have to get sucked into this?”

  “Because it’ll be entertaining as fuck that’s why. Isn’t that the whole point of the game?” Dustin answers. “Lucas just tell them already please.”
  Will sighs in defeat and leans back against the wall.

  “Okay fine! The two of you have to…” He leaves a long, dramatic pause. Mike can feel his heart pounding in his chest and his palms start to feel clammy. This is just a dare why is such a big deal being made over it?

  “Play chicken.”
