Menlyn was taken a bit aback but she snapped out of it when she and the stranger were standing amongst the others. Everyone seemed to notice him, she stole a look at him. She could see why girls would look.

She shook her head, whatever this is not what she was here for,

"You are new too right?"

Menlyn turned to the stranger, "Huh?"

"You must be new here."

"What makes you think that I am new here?"

"You don't have any friends, and you seem out of place. How come I did not see you at the orientation?"

"Teams of three." the mc announced.

Out of nowhere a girl came clinging onto the stranger next to her. Wow, she wanted to laugh in disbelief.

When the game was done, Menlyn started to wander around, lunchtime was in an hour so she had time to spare. She had left the group she was in the minute that they got dismissed. She wasn't in the mood for small talk and competitive flirting.

The guy was good-looking but she had more important tasks at hand. She sighed when she realized that she should have taken the opportunity to get to know her workers. This was a hard mission she set for herself. She thought if the workers didn't know her identity then things would have gone more smoothly but no she was holding herself back.

She walked down to the lake to think of a new game plan. She would try to be more spontaneous so that she could fit in.

Lunchtime came and everyone was seated at the lunch tables. The waft of meat made her mouth water, her stomach growled and she was starving.

"Hey what's your name?"

Menlyn looked up and it was a young pretty dark-haired. She was stunning, "My name is Me....."

Menlyn stopped herself short, she had nearly given away her name by mistake. She shouldn't have done that. Most people would surely know her if she said her name.

"Birthia"

Menlyn wanted to hit herself in the head, this was the problem with her being older, she was so out of touch and tune with everyone and now she had just embarrassed herself.

"That's a unique name, I am Chane."

"Nice to meet you, Chane. You are very pretty."

"Thank you, Birt.. that means a lot to me."

Menlyn was relieved but she felt as if she was in highschool again, she walked around with Chane and the rest of her clique. She could tell that all boys were sore eyes for her. She had elegance. She must have been popular in high school, except that she was nice which most mean girls weren't.

Menlyn excused herself to go to the bathroom, she was having fun with her new friends. She was learning a lot from what she had missed out on.

"Mam!"

Menlyn turned and she found, Christine looking nervous.

"What's wrong?"

"Mam we have to get lodgings here, we can't get back home. The roads are blocked for construction."

"Is there lodgings here?"

"Yes, mam."

Menlyn sighed, this wasn't in her budget but what could she do.

"Tell everyone then what's happening and arrange supper for everyone here."

"On it mam."

Menlyn went back to Chane and the rest of the girls. Supper time came and they ate. Everyone had already arranged a lodge for them to sleep at. When it was ten at night, Menlyn was ready to call it a night.

She heard sounds,

"Wake up, let's go to the dining room area."

Menlyn wanted to refuse but she was curious as to what was going on. They got to the dining area and they were many workers sitting in a circle. They joined the circle.

"Everyone is here, let truth or dare begin."

Menlyn's eyes widened. No not this. But she did remember telling herself to be more spontaneous. She would just hope nothing landed on her.

The game was going on and she was surprised to see people strip a bit. Take shots and tell their secrets.

"Truth or dare."

"Dare."

"Kiss any girl here."

Menlyn felt someone grab her wrist and she started a bit, she was lost in thought that she didn't even know what was going on.

The guys howled and she saw daggers from the girls.

"I thought he would pick Chane." she heard them say.

Menlyn wanted to hear more but it was not possible as they were dragging her away.

They got into a closet. She looked up and saw that it was the guy from earlier or maybe not but his eyes were hard to forget.

"You seem preoccupied."

"Yeah a bit, don't worry I won't tell anyone that nothing happened. We can go out soon." Menlyn replied.

"Who said I wanted nothing to happen?"

"Stop playing around, you seem very young I must say."

Menlyn felt his hand go around her waist and his lips lowered onto hers in an instant.
