How to Make a Girl Fall in Love
Chapter 6. Secrets

     The kids all came in and put alot more than just orange juice on the table. I decided to take a walk around the beach- I wasn't really that hungry. I took a deep breath as my feet came in contact with the warm sand. 
  "BABY!" I heard someone yell behind me. I could pick out that voice anywhere. I turned around and saw Dalton jogging through the backyard to me.
  "I saw you walk out. You okay?" He smiled his childish smile. I gave him a reassuring smile,
  "Yeah I'm fine..."   He tilted his head, watching me intently.
 "Did Kendall say something to you? She seemed extra 'excited'" He asked, quoting "excited" with his fingers. 
  "Well...she told me that I shouldnt be here.. I don't know what that means.." I trailed off, kicking some sand into a pile with my feet. I looked up at Dalton, who was looking at the sand with a confused look. 
  "Uhh..yeah..I'm not sure what she's talking about.." We stood in silence for acouple seconds before he nudged my arm.
  "C'mon, race you inside!" He flashed a smile before dashing off the beach. I rolled my eyes and jogged behind him. 
                                                                   ...
         “Lexi! You went last the other night. You go first now.” I sighed, trying to decide between picking truth or dare. I chickened out and picked truth again. Josh was asking me.  He thought for a moment before I spoke
 “Its an easy one, remember.” I said, hoping he wouldn’t ask for anything embarrassing.
“Fine..umm.. When’s your birthday?” He finally asked. It was an easy question, but I still didn’t want to answer it.
“Uhhh…December…umm…fifteenth?”  I said, which sounded more like a question than an answer. I mentally slapped myself for sounding like I didn’t know my birthday. They’ll know I’m lying.
 “You sure about that?” Luke chuckled, wrapping his arm around my waist.
I felt myself blushing, like I always do when I lie.
“Yeaahh…” I said, trying to cover my blush.
 “Really, when’s your birthday? I picked an easy one for you.” Josh said.
