But one guy in the circle scoffed and through his 3 of clubs down on the table. [b]”This game can be so bullshit. You are all getting excited over a Joker. But it doesn’t even matter unless someone else has a Joker. We should have just played spin the bottle. Way faster and to the point.”[/b] Marcus seemed to shoot a glare at the guy making this comment. It was obvious that they didn’t appreciate Marcus’s amazing sleight of hand and shuffling skills with the deck. At this point, a few people had gathered around in the room watching the game. Arthur put down is empty solo cup, still looking over the cards that were in play. He wasn’t very familiar with any of the games that people played at Terrance’s parties, as he was usually too busy scouting around for ne’er-do-wellers in the house. But it seemed everyone was getting excited at Eva getting a Joker. But that one guy said it didn’t matter unless there were two Jokers. Does that mean he and Eva won? Well, in the eyes of some of the girls and guys around him- he and she definitely won. [color=lightblue]”Arthur, you gotta put down your card.”[/color] Terrance finally spoke up, and Arthur put down his Joker next to Eva’s showing a pair. Instantly a roar of cheering, shouting, gasping, hooping, and hollering filled the living room. Even drawing in attention from the smokers outside. Arthur felt a sense of pride well up in his chest. Everyone seemed impressed, so they must have won the game, or something along those lines! [color=khaki]”Arthur, you lucky son of a bitch. What I wouldn’t have given to get a Joker with Gigi.”[/color] Wait, what did he mean by that? [color=lightblue]”Same here! Though Helene and I don’t need some cards to tell us what we are going to get up to later.”[/color] Terrance smiled widely, playfully slapping Helene’s thighs. Arthur grew slightly pale. Oh god, what were they talking about? But, in a quick burst of movement, it seemed that Arthur and Eva were being pulled by the many members of the crowd, down a hallway. Every person they passed was saying something like, “That lucky bastard”, or to Eva “Lucky Bitch”. Arthur got a tinge of anger hearing some of the girls say that in Eva’s direction. Were they mad that they had won a stupid card game? But it seemed much more than that, as Eva was being pulled ahead, while Terrance and Alexander walked beside him. [color=dodgerblue]”I may be a bit drunk… but is it just me or is everyone acting weird?”[/color] Terrance just let out a loud laugh, patting Arthur on the back. [color=lightblue]”Arthur… Have you ever heard of 7 minutes in heaven?”[/color] Arthur paused for a moment with his thoughts. What would 7 minutes in heaven be like? Why only seven minutes? Arthur imagined a bunch of winged angels singing around some golden arches and some kind of pearly gates. It didn’t really appeal to him that much. [color=dodgerblue]”Like… angels?”[/color] Terrance facepalmed himself hard, while Alexander stood to the side just snickering. [color=khaki]”Arthur, how do you feel when you see Eva?”[/color] Wow, words couldn’t describe the feeling. Although before he would describe it as nauseating and painful, his emotions were really evolving. He felt warm when he saw her, he felt like he could climb a mountain, or swim across an entire ocean. And when he hugged her earlier, he felt like he was a firework going off in the sky. It was the greatest feeling he had experienced since… well as crude as it was, killing a man. For some reason, the feeling of passion he had for Eva somehow reminded him of the ecstasy he experienced of holding the life of a man in his hands. [color=dodgerblue]”Amazing.”[/color] Was all that Arthur could muster out. [color=khaki]”Alright. Well to say it in short. You two get uninterrupted time together. 7 minutes specifically. So you get to experience those feelings for her, [i]with her[/i] in privacy. Doesn’t that sound nice?”[/color] Arthur watched ahead of him, as it seemed that a verbal exchange was going on between Eva and her friends before Helene seemed to be pushing her into the room. Him? Her? ALONE? Arthur froze up like a block of ice. Where he had been walking along with the tidal waves of hands pushing him into the bedroom, now he felt like he couldn’t move another inch. He was just finally getting in control of his feelings to be able to look at her without dying. Being locked in a room with her for 7 minutes?? It was overwhelming. He couldn’t fight the pull of the hands around him, as they continued to cheer for Eva and Arthur, some of the random girls turning up their noses. Obviously jealous that they weren’t the ones going into the room. Arthur was sure if they could, they would volunteer as tribute in an instance. Arthur’s panicked eyes jumped from face to face before landing on Jacob. Jacob mouthed something to him. It looked like it contained the words relax. Oh god, how could he relax at a moment like this?? With that final thought, it took three guys eagerly pushing Arthur into the room, that he stumbled backwards some. The door was slammed closed, and her heard the sound of a chair being pushed up against the door knob. He could still hear the faint roar outside, but above it all heard Terrance. [color=lightblue]”Alright, Alright! Give the lovebirds space! Back to the living room, all of you!"[/color] And the cheering was followed by faint laughter and conversation, along with receding footsteps. The only thing Arthur could hear was the pounding of his heart in his ears. He was still facing the door, too afraid to turn around and face Eva, who he felt behind her. It was pitch black, as no one had turned on the lights. But after a few moments of being frozen still, Arthur reached his hands to the wall, rubbing around and feeling for the light switch along the wall. He felt himself bump into something soft and warm, something unexpectedly was there, and he lost his footing, falling to the ground, and taking the object falling with him. UMPHF! Arthur lost his breath for a second as he landed on his back on the floor. Hardwood, so he was sure that the drunken group hadn’t even locked them in a bedroom. Arthur had only known this due to the fact he knew every bedroom in Terrance’s house was carpeted. Arthur sat up, keeping one hand on the soft object that had collapsed with him. Oh god, he hope he didn’t break something belong to Terrance’s family. They were all spies, so it could have been important. Arthur reached his other hand up along the wall, and felt the cold plastic of the light switch. Flipping it on, a single lamp on the far side of the room lit up. The room looked like a study, with a bookshelf, a desk, laptop, chairs, a globe, all the little workings. He was pretty sure this was either Terrance’s mother’s or his father’s office. The single light was warm, soft, and also not very bright. It didn’t light up the entire room, in fact, it almost gave as much light as a fireplace lit in a room. Arthur finally turned his attention back to the item that had collapsed with him, and on his lap he found Eva looking right back up into his eyes. Arthur’s heart was pounding so hard, he thought it was about to become one rapid session of beats, blending into one. His breath was caught in his lungs, and there was a faint red that painted his cheeks. He shook slightly before placing his hands quickly on Eva’s hips and lifting her up off is lap, and trying to steady her to her feet. [color=dodgerblue]”Are you okay?”[/color] He was referring to the fall, he hoped he didn’t hurt her tumbling her over like that. His eyes raced up and down her body, her face, her arms, her legs, all making sure there were no visible marks. However his eyes traveled slowly across her body, absorbing in every curve and divot, and all of the smooth skin that was showing.
