“I wouldn’t know. I never played.”
His eyes widened. “Younever played?”
“No.”
His chest puffed out. “Wow, I did something you’ve never done in your youth.”
I crossed my arms. “Yeah, well, I went skinny dipping, and you probably never had the guts to.”
He grinned and held out the bottle to me. “I’ll make you a deal, you play Spin the Bottle with me, and I’ll go skinny dipping.”
I snorted, refusing to take the bottle. “Um, you need at least four people to make it an official game.”
“Hmm.” His finger tapped over his lips. His eyebrows rose as if he had a eureka moment. Lucas got up and grabbed Muffy and Tuffy. “Now we have four.”
I laughed. “Seriously?”
His eyes narrowed. “What’s the matter?Chicken?”
“No. I just don’t go around making out with stuffed animals from my childhood.”
“From what I remember, Spin the Bottle didn’t involve a make-out session. It was one little kiss.”
I pursed my lips, unsure of where this would lead… especially if that bottle pointed to Lucas.
He held out the bottle again. “Itripledog dare you.”
Dammit.
I took the glass. “One innocent kiss. No slipping tongue, got it?”
“Got it.”
“And you have to go skinny dippingtonight.”
“Tonight?”
“Tonight or no deal.”
“Fine.” He set up Muffy and Tuffy in the middle of the floor and sat down. “Let’s play.”
I took his challenge and sat across from him. I set the bottle in the center. “Who goes first?”
He side-grinned. “You.”
“What are the rules?”
“Rules?”
“Yes, it’s your game, now establish some rules.”
“If the bottle doesn’t point to one of us, Muffy and Tuffy included, you must spin again until it does.”
“Is that it?”
His left eyebrow shot up. “We get to swap.”
“Swap?”
