Lisa collapsed in a kitchen chair across from Sherry Brower, Jungkook and Shannon's mom. They had both just finished a three hour marathon of dealing with fifteen, eight year old girls. Ten of which had finally been sent home for the night.
"Lisa, thank you so much for helping out with this," Sherry said.
"No problem, Sherry. I'm glad I could help."
"Are Shannon and the others getting ready for bed?"
"Yeah, they just went up to Shannon's room a few minutes ago," Lisa answered. Five of the girls were staying for the sleepover part of the party. A smart move by Sherry because fifteen girls in one house, over night, was just way too many.
"Is there anything else down here you want me to help you with Sherry?"
"Oh, no, I've got this under control," she stated, throwing a paper plate into a plastic trash bag. "Just," her eyes glanced upward, "keep the girls from getting into too much trouble and make sure they get to bed at a normal hour."
Lisa stood up and saluted. "You got it Sherry. Secret agent Kelli Morris is on the case."
Sherry laughed. "Good. I'd hate to think that all of my bribing you with cake and ice-cream went to waste."
"Nope, that it definitely did not. Have a good night."
"You too, Lisa. And if they become too much to handle you be sure to come and get me, ok?"
"Yup."
Lisa went up the stairs and knocked on Shannon's door before entering. "Hey, girls," she called out, poking her head into the room. All six girls were sitting in a circle on the floor.
"Hey!" They chirped back, turning towards her.
"You're just in time, Lisa," Shannon said.
Lisa shut the door behind her and joined their small circle, sitting between Marie and Penny. "Oh, yeah, for what," she asked.
"A game."
"Truth or Dare."
Were the two responses that she received from everyone. Truth or dare, huh? Well, it seemed like a pretty harmless game since the majority of the girls in the room were eight years old. Kelli didn't see anything wrong with playing it. It's not like they could get into a lot of trouble at their age anyway.
"Okay, sounds like fun," Lisa agreed. "Shannon you get to ask first since it's your birthday."
Everything started off just as harmless as Lisa assumed it would. The girls seemed to be sticking with truth over the dare part of the game. Things didn't really start to snowball until Jessica asked Lisa if she had ever kissed a boy before. To which she answered yes and then had to explain the pros and cons of kissing as they got sidetracked from the game.
