Bob, Scott, Dave, Juliet, and Ashley all stared at Clint. Clint smiled. "Well...???" Clint asked. Scott smiled.
"I'm in." He said and put his legs indian-style.
Now that Scott and Clint were both gonna play, Juliet and Ashley were more than willing.
"I'm in!" Julie announced.
"Me too!" Ashley agreed.
"Yeah, me." Bob nodded.
They all looked at Dave. He put his hands up in surrender. "Okay! Okay! Gosh." They all laughed.
Clint stood up. "I'll be right back. No advance practice, SCOTT!" Clint laughed and Scott turned red. He wondered if he was being obvious he had a crush on Julie.
Julie was uneasy. What if she got to kiss Scott Moffatt?? What if she had to kiss Dave? He wasn't bad, but Julie wasn't exactly up to kissing him.
Ashley was all for it. It was a great suggestion and she silently urged Clint to hurry up. She found it quite amusing that the Moffatts were real guys with real personalities.
Clint didn't waste much time. He quickly came back with an empty Naya bottle and arranged it to that the order went something like this:
[clockwise starting with Clint by the curtain] Clint, Bob, Ashley, Julie, Dave, and Scott.
The bottle was placed in the middle of the circle and the six teens were silent.
Clint spoke up. "Who wants to go first?" Clint glared at Scott.
Scott noticed this look and offered. "I will."
Scott leaned forward and spun the empty Naya bottle. It landed on Bob. Clint, Dave, Ashley and Julie laughed. "That doesn't count, you guys." Scott said and started to spin the bottle.
It landed on Dave. Scott rolled his eyes. Twice on a member of the same sex and you have to give up your turn. Everybody else waited to see which way around the circle they would go. No one said anything.
Clint smiled and leaned forward. He spun the bottle with a certain exactness. The six waited for it to stop. When it did, it was pointed towards Bob. Clint laughed and spun again. This time it landed on himself. "Dang it!" Clint growled and sat back. It was Bob's turn.
Bob hoped it would land on Ashley. He liked her. He leaned forward and took a hold of the bottle. He paused and then spun it. It landed on Dave. "Shoot." Bob said, hoping he wouldn't have to give up his turn.
Before he could spin again, Dave spoke up. "What's the point of this game, anyway?" Dave asked to no one in particular. Bob paused and all five looked at Dave like he was crazy. Clint his the back of Dave's head with his hand.
"Shut up, D.!" Clint ordered. He made a motion with his hand to signal Bob to continue.
Placing his hand around the bottle, Bob spun. The bottle let out a few little water droplets and landed smack dab in front of Julie.
Everyone was silent. Bob was turning red and Julie was avoiding eye contact. Clearing his throat, even though it didn't help, Bob started to move. "Okay..." Bob squeaked. Clint smiled evilly and Dave sighed. Scott was watching.
Julie looked at Ashley. She couldn't believe in the next few seconds she would be kissing a Moffatt! She controlled her thoughts and moved silently towards Bob. Resting on their hands, the two closed their eyes and pressed lips.
Scott got mad. Uncontrollable mad. The seconds seemed like hours. He felt himself getting hot and thought he might right there blow up into a million pieces. When he could take it no longer, Scott yelled "OK ENOUGH ALREADY!!!"
Bob and Julie opened their eyes and jumped back. They were startled. Bob looked at his brother who was beet red. "What's your problem, man?!"
