"Em! I'm sorry you had to leave so early the other night." Joe's voice followed behind me, "You put up a good fight."

I laughed, "Cost me some nice photos."

"I like the color on you. Makes your eyes pop even more. Wanna get a drink?"

"I've had enough, thanks."

"You still not drinking?"

"I'll have a few every now and again but yeah, not too much."

"Good for you. Your boyfriend seems nice." He pointed back to the dance floor where Hunter was dancing with Cassidy and Nicholas.

"My - Oh, Hunter? He's not my boyfriend."

"You sure about that? Cass told me he said so. Well he seems very nice, Em." He stopped and looked at me for a second, "If I must be honest, you worried me the other night and then he just swooped in and looked after you. Don't let this one get away." He left me sitting at the bar.

I looked over at Hunter dancing with my youngest cousins and he looked over at me, calling me over. I laughed and walked over to the three of them.

"Care for a dance, sweetheart?" Nicholas asked.

I laughed and looked at Hunter.

"That had nothing to do with me." He laughed.

I danced with Nick while Hunter danced with Cass. He made her stand on his feet and spun her around, her face lighting up with joy.

"Em! I wanna dance with you!" She sang.

"Well come on then." I picked Cass up and wrapped her legs around me.

"Emilia? You know Stewart?"

"Yes?" I looked into her twinkling eyes

"I like him as much as you like Hunter." Her entire face turned red.

"Well then why are you dancing with me? Go to him."

"You know you just admitted you like Hunter. He told us he's not really your boyfriend."

I looked at Cass, shocked, I wouldn't tell Hunter this. I put Cass back down and she ran towards Stewart.

I was amazed by her bravery because the next thing I knew, little Cass kissed Stewart. His eyes widened in shock and I saw his eyes fill with love.

"He's getting more action than me." Hunter laughed. His warm hand fell on the small of my back and I tensed.

"And she's getting more action than me." I teased and turned to wrap my arms around Hunter's neck.

"Well if we went back - "

"Em." Jake interrupted, I let go of Hunter to turn towards him, Hunter stayed behind me.

"Jake. Didn't know you were invited."

He looked down at Hunter's hands resting on my hips and then back up, "So you two... Umm... Official then?"

"Why does it matter to you?" I was still angry with him.

I felt Hunter's hands tighten on my waist, "She's my girlfriend."

We hadn't given our relationship or whatever it was, an official title and I wasn't expecting Hunter to, but we were dating, I suppose? He took me out on dates often and rarely brought girls back home, he hadn't brought anyone home in ages. But he also hadn't asked me to be his girlfriend.

"Well could I steal Em away for a dance?"

"She isn't feeling too well. I was just going to go take her back to the room to lie down."

"Sorry. Enjoy the rest of the wedding." I said before I slipped down and Hunter grabbed my arms. He picked me up and walked away.

"I wasn't that rough last night, sweetheart." Hunter whispered loud enough for Jake to hear.

I saw his eyes widen and buried my face deeper into Hunter's chest to hide my laugh, "You are so jealous."

"I can't help it." He shrugged, still holding tightly into me.

"You're a brilliant actor, sweetheart." Hunter smiled down at me once we were in the elevator.

"And you're a brilliant liar." I laughed, "Thanks for catching me though."

Hunter nodded, "Thanks for going along with it."

"How come you keep telling people I'm your girlfriend?" I asked once we in our room, Hunter was still carrying me.

He looked down at me and smirked, "It's an easier way to make sure no one else steals you."

"Well how come you didn't just tell people we're dating?"

He wrinkled his nose, "Because we haven't discussed that either."

I sighed, "Well I'm too tired to talk about that. What about we play Never Have I Ever?"

"That game never works out well for me. But it all depends on what the loser has to do." Hunter put me back on my feet.

"Umm... loser has to..."

"Drink this." Hunter held up a quarter of vodka.

"Oh, I don't like this. I don't really drink." Hunter raised an eyebrow, "A lot, I mean."

"Fine, five shots. That's my tolerance so if I lose at least you'll get something out of me." I looked at him and he laughed, "Not like that. I mean a secret or something."

"Well my tolerance is three. So if I loose, three for me. You loose, five."

"Great. You start and don't go easy on me." Hunter sat crossed legged facing me on the couch.

"Never have I ever slept with someone I just met." I started.

Hunter didn't put a finger down, "Never have I ever kissed someone of the same gender."

I shamefully lowered one finger and Hunter raised an eyebrow, "Care to share?"

"Nope."

"Fine. How old were you?" Hunter was laughing.

"Probably sixteen. I'd already had my first kiss so I didn't really care." Hunter was staring at me, "Enough about that. Never have I ever... Masturbated in public."

Hunter laughed and then lowered one finger.

"I'm going to even ask." I held my hand up.

Hunter laughed again, "Okay. Never have I ever... Kissed my best friend's crush."

"Oh come on, I'm sure you've done that."

"Fine..." We both lowered one finger.

"Never have I ever gotten drunk."

"Bullshit."

"I promise." I laughed at his shocked face.

"Then how do you know your vodka tolerance?"

"That's Sky's. We're the same size so I assumed I'd have the same tolerance."

"Fair enough. Never have I ever read a whole novel in one day."

"Oh come on, Hunt, you know I love reading. I only have two left..." I said holding up my fingers.

"Same, sweetheart." He held up his fingers.

"Never have I ever gotten arrested." I thought Hunter would've but surprisingly he didn't put a finger down. I looked at him skeptically.

"What can I say. I'm a bad boy not a criminal." He shrugged, "Never have I ever flashed someone."

Again, I shamefully lowered one finger and Hunter laughed.

"Never have I ever needed a cold shower because of my roommate." I smirked at Hunter remembering when that happened.

"Sweetheart, that's not fair."

I shrugged, we both only had one chance left.

"Fine. Never have I ever fantasized about having sex with a roommate."

"I haven't so..." I blushed a deep red knowing that I was lying.

"Sweetheart...?" Hunter cooed, "I'm not ashamed, I'll put a finger down." So he did.

I breathed deeply and lowered my finger too, Hunter was smirking at me when I looked back up.

"Now what?" I asked since we were tie.

"You can ask the final question. And whoever has done this, loses. Hold one finger out." I obeyed.

"Hmm." I thought for a long time before giving Hunter an answer, "Never have I ever had sex."

Hunter gulped but didn't put his finger down.

"Hunter, hello?" I sang, "Put your finger down."

He ignored me and kept his finger up and then I realized what this meant.

"The bad boy's a virgin?" I asked moving closer to Hunter.

He still didn't answer me till I was over him with my hands on either side of him.

"Never have I ever wanted to loose a game so I could drink." Hunter stretched his arm out and drank each shot, without a break, "Now you know why those girls never leave the next morning."

"You know it's nothing to be ashamed of. I'm just... Shocked. I assumed - "

"Everyone does. That's why no one knows because they don't ask so I don't tell them." Hunter wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer to him.

My hips were against his and our noses were touching. I could already smell the alcohol when Hunter spoke.

"Although, you're honestly the first person I've ever wanted to loose it to."

I shivered at his words and slowly got up to change.

When I came back out again, Hunter was lying in bed so I climbed in next to him.

His words were more slurred than usual but I could still hear what he said and he wasn't going to scare me off.

"I really like you, sweetheart."
