“Isn’t it my turn?” Chel interjected before Lexx could continue.
“You asked if I was sure,…” Lexx pointed out, not wanting her to stop rubbing his back.
Chel hrmmed and smirked to herself, then replied honestly. “You can’t control how you look,.. but yes,… it is creepy to me.” She wasn’t about to give Lexx even the time to make another alternate suggestion. “How does that make you feel?”
“I don’t want you to be afraid of me.” He didn’t waste a breath.
The answer was too quick and sent an odd chill through Chel’s body. She pulled back from Lexx, “Maybe we should stop playing now.” She was beginning to feel more than worry about where this line of questioning was leading.
“Are you uncomfortable with it?” Lexx inquired politely, without turning around. He was disappointed with the game coming to such an abrupt close.
“Yes,…”
“Me too,…”
Aww. Stopping already? Are you sure? This had so much potential to get so gloriously awkward! Or gloriously romantic! Or gloriously funny! It would be glorious no matter which way it ended. And everyone knows you can’t end a game of Truth or Dare without someone asking “So, who do you like?” in a singsong voice.
