Chapter five
Laurel
Rather than leaving the party after my conversation with Malcolm, I grabbed a beer and sat with Nyssa and Alex. Nyssa was talking about her 5-month adventure across Asia. "... And the views were amazing" She gushed. "But I think my favourite part was the night we spent hours talking"
"Sounds like fun" Alex smirked. "What did you guys talk about?"
"Well we played 'Have you'" Nyssa explained, "Basically we asked one person a question starting with 'Have you...' and the other player had to answer"
"Oh, are we playing a game over here?" Slade asked, walking over with Thea and Kara.
"Well, we can play" Nyssa shrugged.
"Oh, let's do it" Kara sat next to me, "Wait!" She jumped up and ran back to the kitchen and came back dragging Oliver and Malcolm towards us.
"What's happening?" Oliver asked.
"We're going to play a game, Nyssa can you explain again" Kara smiled, sitting down again.\
Nyssa re-explained the game and we started. "Laurel, Have you ever cheated on something?" Nyssa asked me.
"Two things actually" I stated, "A spelling test in 3rd grade and a boyfriend in 5th grade"
"You cheated on Charlie?" Oliver asked, jokingly shocked.
"I held hands with Maxwell" I shrugged. "Slade, Have you ever used your one eye as an excuse to get out of normal easy jobs?"
"All the time," He said flatly.
"I can vouch" Alex raised her hand.
"Malcolm, Have you ever left your son somewhere stupid by accident?" Slade asked.
"A carousel at the park, I thought he had run off so I tried finding him, but he had been on the ride the entire time. I left him on there for about 3 hours, he didn't mind, but he never let me forget" Malcolm shook his head. "Laurel, Have you ever been in love?"
I perked a little, I looked over to Oliver and Kara. "Once, he cheated on me, and now is in a happy relationship with a girl who is like a sister to me" I stated.
"And that's the summary of our life" Thea laughed.
"Thea, have you ever nearly eloped a boyfriend?" I smirked.
"Oh, you..." She threw her head back, "I hate you"
"You have to answer," Nyssa said.
"Yes... Once with Roy" Thea sighed.
"Excuse me?" Oliver's head whipped to her. "You nearly married Roy?"
"NYSSA! Have you ever stolen something?" Thea quickly changed the subject.
"I've stolen a keychain from an airport" She admits, "I still use it still"
"Rebellious" Alex chuckled.
"Kara, have you ever sent a wrong text that was so out of context?" Nyssa asked.
"Twice, one to my mom and one to my boss. Nearly got fired" She blushed, "Uh... Slade, have you ever thought of dating someone from our group?"
"Once" Slade simply stated.
"Which one?" Nyssa asked.
"I'll take it to my grave," Slade smirked.
Thea, Nyssa, and I looked at each other confused. "Oliver, have you ever partied too much?"
"A few times, I may have ended up in Monte Carlo once" Oliver cleared his throat.
"I remember that" Thea smirked. "Mom was so mad"
"Yea... Anyways. Malcolm, have you ever regretted the party life?" Oliver asked.
"Occasionally, yes" Malcolm nodded. "Laurel, Have you ever thought of dating me?"
Everyone looked at me with wide eyes, "That's for me to know and you to fight for" I grinned. "I should really get going"
I stood up and strutted out, leaving everyone is confused. If there's one thing my mama taught me, if they didn't fight for you, they don't deserve you...
