As Carson looked at the fifth rule, he couldn't help but laugh and read it out loud, "Choose one person of the opposite sex and kiss his or her lips for three minutes."
The others also burst into laughter, finding the option quite thrilling.
"Charlie, go on and choose. There are many beautiful ladies here!" Carson teased.
Charlie smiled and said, "Do I even have a choice? Emily it is then, since she was the one who hit the drum. Seems like I have no option but to sacrifice a bit!"
Indeed, he had no other options, as most of the girls in the room, except Emily and Yvonne, had boyfriends, and Charlie knew he couldn't touch Yvonne because she liked Jonathan.
Emily's face suddenly turned bright red, as she stuttered, "Can I switch to another option?"
"No way!" Yvonne laughed. "You chose this, so you have to go through with it!"
Charlie got up and said, "Emily, come here!"
Emily instinctively looked at Estelle for help, but she couldn't do anything as well. So, Emily got up and walked towards Charlie, who led her to the wall on the opposite side, turned off the light, and whispered, "Don't be nervous."
As Emily leaned against the wall with her back tense, she nervously looked at Charlie and thought if it wouldn't be better to fake the kiss since nobody could see them from this angle anyway.
But before she could say anything, Charlie leaned down with his arm supporting his body above her and said in a low voice, "Close your eyes."
Emily immediately obeyed, and not long after, she felt the man's cool and soft lips touch the corner of her mouth. She gasped, her heart pounding in her chest.
The others kept laughing, with Andrew yelling, "Make sure it's a full three minutes, not a second less!"
Emily could hear the laughter in the background, but it seemed distant. All she could smell was the man's scent, along with the sensation of his lips on hers, which had changed from cool to warm. She couldn't help shivering and trembling.
Charlie looked at her with half-closed eyes, he didn’t want her to feel embarrassed. He had turned off the light, but he could still see her quivering eyelashes and her face flushed red like a cooked shrimp, the redness spreading all the way to her ears.
She was indeed innocent and pure, getting so nervous just because of a slight touch from a man.
Charlie wanted to laugh, but there was also a tenderness in his heart. He could smell the sweet fragrance of the young girl, not from any perfume, but the natural scent she emitted. Suddenly, he recalled the time when Emily fainted in the bathroom, that once forgotten scene became vivid in his mind once again.
They were the most prolonged three minutes of her life.
"Alright!" Estelle yelled once the time was up.
Emily finally sighed in relief.
Charlie took a step back, turned around, and spoke to everyone else with a calm expression, "I kept my word. Now, all of you better watch out!"
Emily lingered in the darkness for a moment, regaining her calm before stepping out of the corner.
The game went on, with Charlie hitting the drum and Yvonne ending up being the next in line. She chose the "truth" option.
However, Charlie didn't dare ask anything too risky, only inquiring, "When was the first time you lied?"
It was a simple question, but Yvonne thought for a long time before looking in Jonathan's direction, "Four years ago, in a coffee shop on the street corner. I told that person not to wait for me."
