The Were CEO's Secret

Chapter Fifty-Nine Truth or Dare.

Stephanie slurped down her drink, angrily. Mica glanced at her but continued on her discussion with Nathan. Stephanie sighed audibly but it didn't stop Mica from chattering.

She withdrew from them and ate her food. All she wanted to do was eat at a fancy restaurant, pay for her own food and talk on the war. But then some estranged cousin of Garcia's, just as annoying as Garcia, named Mica, double crossed Nathan and had his full attention. She didn't know Nathan was such a fashion enthusiast when he had bad fashion sense. Mica had been going on about a latest brand. Stephanie called on the waiter to give her another plate of chicken soup. She was hungry, or was she angry?

"Oh, same too." Nathan told the waiter after Stephanie ordered and went back to listening to Mica. Stephanie balled her fist.

She hurried with her food and grabbed Nathan's keys, low-key hoping to get his attention but she didn't. Shaking her head, she left to the car.

She slammed the car door shut and waited for him to come out. They still had work to do at the office. Her phone rang and she answered. "Hey, Lacy." She said gloomily.

Lacy, on the other head, snickered then changed her voice to a crying one. "Stephanie, I injured my leg. I need to be at the Hospital."

The car door swung open and Stephanie hurried out, back to Nathan. "Lacy, just wait, I'm on my way, okay?" she hung up.

She cursed at Nathan, in her head, as she saw him still with Mica. He had this woman around him yet he asked her to act like his girlfriend?

She tossed his key at him and walked away, trying to get an Uber. She thought of dialing her mom but remembered she'd probably be with her dad. Her dad used to suffer heart attack from sudden bad news. She stopped a taxi, just as Nathan rushed out of the restaurant. He pulled her back but she shoved his hands off. "Lacy needs me." Nathan ran his hands through his hair seeing her go. "Okay, Keon, your plan to make her jealous, failed woefully. Now she's gone." Keon shrugged. "It failed only because Lacy needs her, I'm pretty sure I saw traces of jealousy and plenty of irritation on her face." Stephanie paid the taxi man and jumped out of the car, looking above the center to be sure it was were Lacy and Macy played at. Someone grabbed her arm. She slapped it off in impulse but it was only Nathan. He rested on his car, panting. "That taxi man drives fast."

She folded her arms. "Why are you following me? Keep chatting with your fashionista buddy."

"What? I dreaded each second. I thought you'd help me out with dismissing her but you only ate, without caring if I did." He pouted.

She scoffed. He was the one chatting with her. Not her. She brushed him aside and entered the center. Nathan followed.

"I told her we should play a hide and seek game. I went to hide then disappeared. It was all I could think off." Nathan narrated as they walked.

A smile came to Stephanie's face and she paused her steps and faced him. "Really? That's cruel." She chuckled.

He shrugged. "I'd just tell her I had an emergency. Also you ran out leaving me there."

She smirked. "I thought you were having fun."

"I wasn't." Nathan handed her a food basket. "I bought it for you, Incase she made you lose appetite."

Stephanie laughed, grabbing it.

Lacy and Macy were upstairs, watching them. When they began climbing the stairs to their class, the twins ran to a room and tied Lacy's leg with a bandage. "Act injured okay? Leave everything else to me." Macy ordered. Lacy nodded.

The door opened and Stephanie and Nathan were greeted by a shrill cry. Stephanie was stunned it belonged to her sister.

Macy was bent over her. "Stephanie, hurry. Lacy fell!" Her face was wet.

Stephanie handed Nathan her bag and the food basket and rushed to carry Lacy. Nathan narrowed his eyes at the girls.

The bandage was tied loosely to the leg. And if Macy had been crying, which didn't she have a running nose?

Also, how was the leg bandaged? If it was bandaged, won't the person have taken her to the hospital?

He sighed at the girl's trick. But as a lover of tricks, he wouldn't snitch on them and just play whatever they had in store.

They waited outside the ward while the doctor was in. Their family doctor, Doctor Dan, came and assured Stephanie everything will be fine.

Before he got in Nathan took him aside and whispered. "Whatever the girl days, just play along." The doctor nodded absentmindedly. Lacy smiled brightly as the doctor came into the ward. "Hello, doctor. How has your day been?"

The doctor watched her carefully, "Fine. You'd be okay. Don't worry." He touched her bandaged and, unwrapped it. He gave her a done look. "Doctor please, play along. My sister and her boyfriend always argue. I want them to stay together for a while." She widened her eyes at him. The doctor gazed at her, then smirked. "Fine. But I'd discharge you before evening. You can't be taking a bed for nothing." Lacy smiled, nodding. "Sure, okay. Thank you."

Stephanie's shoulders slumped when the doctor told her Lacy would be alright by evening. How had falling down broken her leg?

She slumped down on the waiting chair. Nathan also noticed Macy didn't look worried at all, and seemed to be waiting for a moment to speak. "Can we play the truth and dare game while waiting for Lacy?" she snuck closer to them and whispered.

Nathan smirked. He could sense where she was going. Her elder sister scowled at her. She didn't flinch and sat between she and Nathan.

Stephanie objected. "That game is too matured for your age, Macy." Nathan chuckled.

Macy did the same. "Stephanie, you're the one thinking dirty."

Her sister's cheek reddened, and she bit her lower lips "Shut up." Nathan laughed louder.

"So, let's start with you, then me, then Mr. Nathan." Macy pointed them. She sat besides Nathan, on his left. "Let's start."

Stephanie exhaled. "Fine. I dare you, Macy, to tell your twin you love her and would never argue with her again."

Macy nodded and left to the room. Nathan and Stephanie watched her say it, with crossed fingers, they laughed at her intelligence.

She returned. "Okay, I dare you, Stephanie, to tell your boyfriend, you love him and would never argue with him again."

Crickets chirping filled the air. There was silence. Till Nathan cleared his throat. "You should go on with the dare though."

Stephanie felt her heart beat loudly, she couldn't take her eyes off Macy's victorious smirk. She exhaled and turned to Nathan. "Fine."

Every word she said, she bit her lips, reminding herself she didn't mean them. Nathan chuckled at her reaction, when she was done, and Macy joined him.

Stephanie glanced away, hiding her red cheeks behind her hair. It felt like she just confessed feelings. She'd never forgive Macy for this.

When they were done laughing at her. Macy smiled. "Okay, Stephanie, it's your turn to dare Nathan?"

A smile crept to her lips but it fell when she saw how confident he was. What would she say? He was fearless so there was nothing he wouldn't do.

She nodded, when an idea got to her. "Okay, I dare you, Nathan, never to flirt with a girl again, it leaves them heartbroken and isn't nice."

She asked herself if she wanted him not flirting for other reasons. Like she hated it as it took her time? She couldn't find an answer. Macy tilted her head. "That is easy."

"It's not. He's a major playboy." Stephanie defended.

"I accept the dare. Since I had a girlfriend, I had stopped flirting." Nathan winked. Stephanie's heart fell.

"Awww." Macy cooed and started laughing.

Stephanie clenched her fist at her wasted dare. Her cheeks reddened on his comment and she pursed her lips.

She lowered her head, playing with her hair. She noticed her heart beating rapidly and wondered what's going on with her.
