Coastline Craze.

"Yea that would be too much. Just don't let me take my clothes off, well if my shoes come off it'll be okay anything other than that is too much." Astrid said laughing some. Even though she didn't plan on drinking that much, or at least not enough to make her want to take her clothes off and dance on tables, but it was a party and you can never be sure with these things. Sometimes things just happened, which was what Astrid was hoping Dylan would help prevent. Plus she was still new not only to the state and city, but the cast and crew as well and she didn't want to make some awful impression on everyone because she got drunk at her first Tyler Posey house party.

---

"Well I can't say we've ever played drunken truth or dare. We have played games that involve drinking but usually we stop them when we can tell everyone's either too drunk to keep going or so drunk that it's not fun anymore. Well it's never me who stops them. It's usually Hoechlin who brings things to an end because he's like hardly ever drunk really." Daniel told her pretty sure Hoechlin might just not drink as much because he's older and doesn't like being drunk. Daniel wasn't really sure. He drank just never enough to get himself drunk, at least not at these parties.

"Trust me, if your hands reach for your pants in anyway, I will be like the clothing police. Those bad boys aren't coming off even if you go to the restroom, so I suggest doing your business now before you get any drinks it," Dylan joked as he smiled at her, leaning his elbow gently against the counter. He really wouldn't let anything bad happen to her though, not when it came to embarrassing herself or someone taking advantage of her. Dylan could be responsible while still being fun, which was what he planned on doing tonight.

---

"He seems like the type," Sydney smiled as she nodded her head. He was older than the rest of the cast, which seemed to make him more mature, she supposed. "Do you think Tyler has any games planned?" She asked. She realized that the idea of drinking and getting everyone to loosen up a little sounded like fun. It would either be a great way to get to know her cast mates or a total disaster. At the very least, it would give her a chance to hopefully get a little closer to Daniel.

Astrid shook her head and laughed at how ridiculous Dylan sounded. "I'm glad I have someone who will go to such lengths to keep my clothing on." She said positive that if she had to use the restroom he'd let her. Other than that though she did hope to not have her pants come off. She wasn't quite that comfortable with anyone here. And if anything Dylan actually seemed like he could be responsible, even if he also seemed like a giant goofball. "So are there like games or something at these things? Or do you guys usually just mingle while you eat dip and drink spiked punch?"

---

Daniel nodded his head, "I think it's just because he's older and has already had the chance to drink until he couldn't anymore and doesn't find it as fun anymore or something." He said shrugging his shoulders, Daniel didn't really know but oh well. "Uh I don't know. We could always find him and ask though."

"It depends. Usually it's based on Tyler's mood and whether or not he can come up with any drunken games or still see straight enough to do a google search." Dylan looked around the room for Tyler but didn't see him anywhere, then turned back to Astrid. "Why? Have you got any ideas?"

---

"We could come up with one ourselves," Sydney suggested with a smile, hoping her charming face would convince Daniel to agree. "Do you think everyone would play if we did? I saw this weird game with tokens on Facebook once. I'll have to google it though."

Astrid laughed and shook her head. "No I don't have any ideas. I was just curious. I mean we could look some up since I'm pretty sure we can both see straight enough to do a google search. But really I wouldn't know the difference between awful ideas and good ones." She told him laughing again. Maybe if she'd went to more parties while she was in school or something she'd have a better idea on what was a good drinking game and what wasn't, but she couldn't really change that now. Plus it'd never really affected her before so it wasn't a big deal, maybe someone else would think of something anyways.

---

Daniel thought about it for a moment but nodded his head, "I'm sure if we thought of something we could get everyone to play along. I mean usually if someone has an idea as long as it's not like totally off the wall and insane like jumping off a bridge or something it won't get turned down." He told her not really sure he knew of any fun games off the top of his head but if Sydney thought she had a good idea he was totally up for hearing it and possibly trying it out.

"Great idea," Dylan said before pulling out his phone and turning on Siri. "Siri, google search 'party games'." He looked over at Astrid with his eyebrows raised as Siri did her search and returned a few results for him. He scrolled through them before looking at Astrid again. "It looks like we've got truth or dare, strip poker, beer pong or the handcuff game. Your choice."

---

"I'm terrible with ideas," Sydney said, laughing as she shook her head. "The only one I've got is that token game and I'm pretty sure it just involved making out, which many of you have already done with each other before," Sydney said, thinking of all the on-screen kisses the cast members had been involved in.

Astrid laughed as Dylan pulled out his phone to try and find a party game. "Uh well those are all good ideas. Of course I've never played poker before so I don't know how good I'd be at that one plus isn't the point to take off your clothes if you lose the round or whatever?" She asked him pretty sure she wouldn't go with that idea, truth or dare was kind of used a lot but always fun usually as long as everyone knew how to ask the right questions or give the right kind of dares so maybe. Beer Pong was a classic at parties it seemed, the handcuff game however did seem interesting. "Maybe we could try the handcuff game and see how it goes."

---

Daniel laughed a little and shrugged his shoulders. "Yea a lot of us have made out so maybe that wouldn't be as fun as something else." Daniel said not really sure he even knew of any other ideas either. "Maybe someone else has an idea that we can't seem to think of." He said not really wanting to look anything up in case someone else did have an idea they could try. However if they asked and no one else had any ideas then they could just look something up and figure something out.

Dylan did a quick read over of the handcuff game rules before he turned back to Astrid. "Let's gather everyone around." He quickly stepped out into the living room, standing on the table like Posey had done to gather everyone's attention. "We're going to play a game now. It's called the handcuff game. All you have to do is pick a partner and tie your hands together using a piece of clothing, and you can't separate. I'll set an alarm on my phone for random times throughout the night, and when those alarms go off you find the pair that's closest to you and you each dare the other pair to do something. Sound fair?"

---

Sydney was sure she and Daniel wouldn't be able to come up with a game, which was why she didn't object when Dylan suggested his. It sounded a lot like a game of truth or dare without the truth and with a buddy, but she wasn't one to complain. When he was finished explaining, she turned her attention to Daniel. "Are you gonna play?"

Astrid watched as Dylan climbed up onto a table and explained to everyone what they were going to do. And really it was a pretty fun idea so she was pretty sure everyone would go along with it. Once he was done explaining though she did walk back over to him. "So we're going to be partners right?" She asked him with a smile, while she had met some of the other people and might've been their partners like Holland she thought it'd be more fun doing random dares with Dylan. Plus he was already right there and they'd kind of decided on this together so why not pair up too.

---

Daniel turned to Sydney and nodded his head. "Yea might as well. It seems kind of interesting really. Like a giant game of dare with a partner or something." He said pretty sure he'd never done anything like this before so it'd be fun to try it out and experience something new. "So do you want to be my partner? Or are you going to make me pick someone else?" He asked laughing softly.

"Of course we're partners," Dylan said before leaning over and taking the laces off of one of his tennis shoes. He held it up to Astrid and shrugged. "This counts as clothes, right?" He gently grabbed her right hand and pulled it towards his left, tying them together as best he could. He'd set the first alarm for fifteen minutes from now, so he couldn't wait to see what the dares would be.

---

"I would love to be your partner," Sydney said with a bright smile, happy to have a reason to be tied to Daniel all night. This was turning out to be the perfect party, though she hadn't yet figured out what kind of dares they would get. "What should we use to tie our hands together?" Sydney asked, secretly hoping Daniel would offer up his shirt. She knew how amazing he looked without a shirt on and that was probably the only thing that could make this night better.

Astrid laughed while Dylan tied their wrists together. "Well since it's the best thing we've got then it'll count as clothes." She said excited to see what some of the dares would be, and to see how funny it was going to be watching everyone try and do their dares. Probably just as funny as them actually trying to do them. She just knew they were going to look like idiots trying to do some of the dares but that was all part of the fun, looking foolish in front of one another while trying to do whatever slightly foolish thing you were asked to do.

---

"Uh, well lets see," Daniel said looking between the two of them and realizing Dylan had said to use clothing. Which truthfully made it kind of limited on what they could actually use. "I guess we'll use my shirt." He said shrugging his shoulders, there wasn't really many other options. And Daniel wasn't about to ask her to take her shirt off so they could use it, he also would prefer that they both keep their pants on since that could've made things really awkward real quick and they might not've been that easy to tie. So he pulled his shirt off over his head and then started to figure out how to tie them together with it.

"I say we take a shot for good luck, hmm? Just to help us loosen up a bit." With all the odd things they were going to have to do, Dylan thought he was going to need all the courage he could get. He hadn't yet embarrassed himself in front of Astrid, at least he didn't think, so he was gonna need a little help to get started.

---

Sydney nearly fainted when Daniel took his shirt off, but she tried to hide it. She was almost certain that she had snorted out loud, but she could be wrong. As he struggled to tie the two of them together, Sydney forced herself to look away from his perfectly toned abs to help him tie the knot off. When they were finished, she looked at him with a smile. "I hope you're good at doing dares because I hate losing.

"Yea, I'm sure loosening up some before the dares start is probably a good idea." Astrid said knowing that even though she wasn't too worried about embarrassing herself but was more worried that she'd be too tense to do do the dares well. She just needed to loosen up and get a bit more comfortable being here around people she didn't know that well. These were all people she was going to be working with now and she'd be seeing them almost every day so getting to feel comfortable around all of them, not just Dylan, was the best plan. And what better way to get comfortable around people than by playing some weird version of truth or dare without the truth part.

---

Daniel was glad when they finally got the shirt tied around their wrists. He was pretty sure he'd never known how difficult it was to tie a shirt until now, of course until now he'd never really had to but he supposed he wouldn't have thought it would be nearly as hard as it was. "Within reason I guess. I mean I'm perfect at like every single dare in the world, of course there can be some pretty weird ones. I think we've got this though. I mean we're a pretty talent filled team" He said chuckling but knowing they could totally pull this off and have some fun.

Dylan nodded before quickly grabbing a shot glass for both him and Astrid, filling them to the top with vodka and passing hers to her. He held his in the air for a cheer and smiled as he said, "here's to making a fool of ourselves." He looked around the room once and took note of who all was tied together. It was definitely going to be an interesting night.

---

"When you say talent are you talking about my ability to give people near impossible dares or the phenomenal way I mastered the 'party make out'?" Sydney asked, smiling at Daniel as she struggled to look at his eyes and not down to his totally naked stomach, which had to be the best looking thing in the room apart from his flawless face.

"To making fools of ourselves." Astrid laughed clicking her glass against Dylan's then downing her own shot. And they probably would make fools of themselves, but at the end of the day all that would matter was that they had fun and of course that she didn't feel uncomfortable around anyone by the time the party was over. Either way though the night was sure to be interesting. "I hope you're good at coming up with dares though because I'm not really the best. I'll give it my best shot though." She told him hoping she could come up with at least one good dare to give a pair before the game was over.

---

"We're just going to say by talent I meant you're phenomenal way you've mastered the 'party make out' and ability to give people near impossible dares." Daniel told her laughing a bit. He couldn't really say that he had some amazing ability to give people impossible dares, but he did think he could give some pretty good ones. And he hoped that he had the party make out down pat too because it'd be kind of sad if he didn't. Of course he knew that he'd been to enough parties to just have fun no matter what really so all would be well.

Just as Astrid made mention of the dares, Dylan's alarm on his phone went off and everyone's eyes perked up. Everyone quickly went towards the pair nearest them, which for Dylan and Astrid just happened to be Posey and Holland. It seemed like the two of them already had a plan, because before Dylan could ask Astrid what to dare them, they were already being dared themselves. "You two have to do a hand stand and whoever falls first has to take a drink," Holland said with a smile, one hand on her hip while the other was handcuffed to Posey. Dylan huffed and tightened his eyes, deciding then to just lowball the two of them. Besides, it was nothing they hadn't done before. "You guys have to make out for 2 minutes."

---

"Well, we'll just have to see then," Sydney said with a smile, still trying as hard as she could not to stare at Daniel's abs. She didn't understand how the other girls dealt with being around him liked this, and she wasn't sure how much longer she was going to be able to handle it. If it wasn't for the fact that they had to work together, she probably would have already made a move on him just because he was impossible to resist.

Astrid looked to Dylan. "Well looks like we've been dared to do some handstands." She said shrugging her shoulders some, she'd taken some gymnastics classes when she was younger even though she hadn't stuck with it, so she was at least able to do a handstand without leaning against a wall but she didn't know that she'd be able to do one for long. She did have a plan though, her and Dylan could just come up with some dares in the fifteen minutes before his phone went off again and then try and be quicker at getting them out. At least it hadn't been a really embarrassing dare or anything, or well at least not yet.

---

"Yes we will." Daniel said right before he heard Dylan's phone buzz meaning it was time to get to daring people. When the alarm went off he was pulling Sydney with him towards the closest pair which was Crystal and Hoechlin. He turned to Sydney to see if she had any ideas while the other pair clearly did the same, but he hope that he and Sydney could come up with something first. And figured they should plan some dares ahead so they could just call them out quickly when the timer went off and not worry about not knowing what to say.

Dylan was not athletic. He was not strong. He was not flexible. And he certainly couldn't do a handstand. Was this something that Posey or Holland knew and had chosen on purpose? He couldn't be sure, but he was thankful he was getting them back with the little make out session, even though it probably wasn't a huge deal anyway.

"Let's do this, then," Dylan said, looking over at Astrid before glaring at Posey and Holland. He knew he wouldn't be able to hold it for more than a few seconds, so he was already mentally deciding what shot he was going to take. Letting out a long breath, Dylan pushed his hands towards the ground and kicked up with his legs. His kick was a little too hard and instead of doing a handstand he did a full kick over and landed flat on his back.

---

Sydney shrugged her shoulders as she looked at Daniel, biting her lip nervously. "We could make them wear their underwear on the outside of their clothes?" She had never been good at coming up with dares, so she usually went with ones that had been done to her in the past. This, unfortunately, was one that she'd had to do.

Astrid had went to get into the handstand position and was barely able to stay up before she was falling over and laughing at Dylan's awful handstand probably looking ridiculous herself. "Are you okay?" She asked him through her laugh turning her head to look at him. "You did just do a kick flip thing basically after all." She said not sure the landing felt the greatest at all.

---

"That's not a bad idea." Daniel said thinking for a moment longer before he came up with another idea. "Or what if we made them put an ice cube in their back pocket until it melts." He said raising an eyebrow and turning back to the pair next to them, either way they'd both came up with a dare and would probably eventually do both. Though thinking about it he wasn't sure how the underwear one would work and didn't want to make anyone too uncomfortable. It was an interesting idea though.

Dylan let out a long breath, scrunching his face up in pain before nodding his head softly. "Yeah, I'm fine," he said, opening his eyes just a bit to see Astrid looking down at him. He held his hand up in a stopping motion before shutting his eyes again. "Just give me a minute. I'll take the shot, I swear."

---

"Let's go with yours," Sydney said, nodding her head at Daniel before turning back to Crystal and Hoechlin. "You guys have to put an ice cube in your pants and wait for it to melt." Crystal and Tyler didn't seem to be too upset about it, so Sydney thought her and Daniel had probably done a good job picking a pretty fair starting dare.
