"Truth or dare?" asked Mike at Dion, whose face was dull, uninterested, and bored. "Come on, man. Don't be a party bummer!"
Dion rolled his eyes and exhaled sharply. "Remember this, Mike. If I get the chance to ask you, you better be prepared."
His words actually sent a shiver down Mike's spine as he suddenly drank his drink. Dion glanced at Devon, who was busy chatting with Bella from across them.
"Truth."
Mike cleared his throat as he looked around, getting knowing glances from their other friends. "Are you really not Devon's boyfriend?"
"I'm not," Dion answered as fast as a bolt of lightning. "I told you many, many, many times. We're not boyfriend and girlfriends. She's a family."
"Really?" one man from Dion's side tugged his sleeve. "Is she your cousin or what?"
"No. Nothing like that."
"Man… she's hot." Another one commented under his breath, but his words still lingered in Dion's sharp ear.
