Author POV
He led her to the garage and gave her a key..."wait..it's a Car key.you are the best brother ever Alex..Oh my God it's a car key..". Charlotte rejoiced.
"Thanks for always making my day". He gave her his killer smile and led her to where the car was parked. In front of her was a brand new Volkswagen New Beetle. She jumped on Alex hugging him really tight. "You and Alicia are the best ever though sometimes you act like a dick head". She whispered the last sentence and disengaged from the hug.
"And to the most beautiful lil sis ever,I got you these,please manage it". He said, giving her something but it was .
They posed for a lot of pictures and the crowd especially the ladies were so happy taking Alexander's pictures and life videos.
They ate,drank,partied,danced,swam and had a lot of fun. Most people left already when it was getting dark while Alicia,Esther,Jasmine, Donald, Theodora, Aria and her boyfriend, Rose,Joshua and a few waited. Courtney left also for upstairs.
"Okay...what should we do now?". Rose asked.
"Good night guys". Alexander said going upstairs.
"Don't you dare move Alex". Charlotte said more like a command.
"Alright..ma'am". He groaned and raised his hands up in surrender making the students wonder who is older.
"Let's play a game then..never have I ever or truth and dare?". Alexander demanded.
Everyone chose truth and dare except Charlotte.
"Not interested". She said standing up.
"Sorry darling but you have to..I ought to be sleeping but I'm here because of you". Alexander said, dragging her back to sit down.
"Truth and dare it is then". She said and glared at him but he just looked away. Donald went to take a bottle and put it in the middle.
Jasmine twirled the bottle and it stopped in front of Rose and Josh.
"Truth or dare?. She asked, facing Josh.
"Truth".
"Of all the people you once dated,who do you like most?".
"Her name is Grace".
The bottle spun and it landed on Charlotte and Aria's boyfriend. Seems they are not vibing well yet since their fight.
"I dare you to kiss Aria until she reciprocates to your kiss". Aria's eyes widened and Charlotte smirked at her. He went to her slowly.
"First, I want to apologise for being a jerk. Trust me babe,no hard feelings". Aria could hear her heart beating so fast. He tilted her head up and kissed her. She gasped, giving him permission to deepen the kiss. The kiss was slow but got intent as she started reciprocating to the kiss.
"That's okay...my aim is achieved". Charlotte said smiling but they were not even listening.
"Get yourself a room!". The students shouted and they disengaged from the kiss gasping for air.
They continued the game and it pointed at Jasmine and Joshua.
"Truth or dear?".
"Dare".
"I dare you to flirt with your newest crush here". Jasmine said. He gave her the look of what the hell.
"Who cares". She shrugged. Slowly, Josh stood up and went to Charlotte. She could feel her heart beating. Oh no! This is why I hate this stupid game.... Charlotte thought her heart was still racing.
"This might be a game..but I meant this...I know Alexander might think I wanna play you but trust me Charlotte, I'm in love with you...I've loved you ever since the day you came to our school and I'm willing to change just to win your heart. It sounds crazy that the bad ass playboy is falling in love but it is true. I thought it was a crush but every day,I realise I'm falling in love with you...I will be ..."
"That's enough...the flattering words are enough...". Alexander said, getting jealous. Donald was also jealous but he tried to hide it. Charlotte's heart was really beating, she tried breathing in and out to calm herself. The people were surprised and also confused. No one could ever think Josh can fall in love.
They continued the game and the bottle landed on Aria and Donald.
"Truth or dare?". Aria smirked.
"Dare".
"Dare you to kiss Charlotte". She said and Charlotte gasped.
"Are you crazy?". Charlotte shouted.
"Oh..did you forget you dared someone to kiss me..miss?". She teased.
"That was to bring you guys together".
"Donald..you're wasting our Precious time".
"This isn't happening". Josh and Alex said simultaneously. They glared at themselves and looked forward to what's gonna happen next.
"What's the penalty?". Charlotte asked.
"You leave the game". She stood up and left. She can't be more than happy. She really despised games that shed light on people's identity. Josh and Alex released the breath they didn't know they were holding.
She went outside to get a cool breeze.
She stared at the stars,they are so bright at night and beautiful. Just then her phone started ringing.
"Hi mum".
"Happy birthday baby. I didn't want to spoil the fun you would be having but I texted you. I bet you haven't checked".
"I thought as much. I know you can never forget your only child's birthday". She said smiling.
"So how was your day?".
"Well,it was fun...".
"Wow. He bought you a car".
"Yes mum..I was also shocked".
"He is really nice". Charlotte scoffed at the word nice.
"Nice my left toe...bye mom". She said and disconnected the call.
"Hey". She was startled by Donald's presence.
"I'm sorry for startling you".
"Hi,it's okay. Why aren't you in the game?".
"Since I couldn't kiss you,I'm patently out".
"Oh". There was silence afterwards. Both of them were staring at the stars up the sky.
"Charlotte". This is the first time he will be calling her name so lovingly. She remarked.
"Yeah..?".
"I don't know if this is coming too early but I felt if I don't do this now then you might be snatched away from me". He held Charlotte's hands in his.
"What are you talking about Donald". She said getting uneasy.
"I mean...I love you Charlotte. Since the day you came to our class. You made friends with me when no one did. I used to be a lone wolf but you showed me what true love really is!. At first, I tried fighting the feelings but I failed in doing that..the first time we met,I was actually thinking my life is useless because people don't wanna associate with me because of my eye problems but I saw the reasons I needed to live when we met". He rushed his speech.
"Donald..I...". Charlotte ran out of words.
"I like you..like a whole lot Charlotte..will you please be my girlfriend?". Donald said and her eyes widened.
