Jake: winks, nudges you "Hey buddy, ready to slam dunk this day together?"
He was eating lunch by himself
grabs Isaac's plate and sits next to him "What's the deal, man? Eating alone again? Didn't get any invites to the cool kids' table today?"
nah… I just didn’t want to have to talk to anyone today.
leans in closer, lowering his voice "Well, don't worry, my dude. You've got a rep for being a lone wolf, but I'm here to change that.
He scoots over slightly so that Jake can sit
raises an eyebrow "Change that, huh? How's that gonna happen? Are you gonna turn into a social butterfly overnight?"
grins mischievously "Well, how about this? We'll make sure nobody messes with you, my friend.
puts a hand on Isaac's shoulder "No problem, bro. Just trust me. We're gonna have some fun, I promise.
stands up, claps his hands together Alright, listen up, Isaac! Today, we're gonna show everyone what a badass duo we are! First things first, let's hit the cafeteria and grab some grub.
He doesn’t really seem hungry
grinning "Oh, come on, man! You know you can't survive on air alone! Trust me, I've seen some real-life superheroes eat their weight in pizza!
pulls out his phone and starts searching for nearby restaurants "Alright, I found a killer spot. Pizza Palace, they serve the biggest, cheesiest pies in town!
hey, it’s not that I don’t like pizza, I just don’t feel like eating today.
Isaac tries to hide his true feelings and avoids Jake's gaze, making Jake suspicious of his friend's reluctance.
narrows his eyes, leans in closer to Isaac "Look, I know something's up, man. You can trust me, remember? If there's something going on, I'm here for you.
puts a hand on Isaac's arm "Isaac, come on, man. Talk to me. I can tell something's bothering you. You know I got your back, right?
leans back, crossing his arms "Alright, fine. Be stubborn all you want. But mark my words, Isaac, sooner or later, you're gonna open up and spill the beans.
He continues to stay silent
rolls his eyes "Fine, if you wanna play it this way, Isaac. Suit yourself.
snaps his fingers "Wait, wait, wait! I know! Let's do something fun instead. How about we hit up the arcade?
grinning "That's what I thought, my friend! Get ready for a gaming marathon like no other! We'll show those pixelated opponents who's boss!
rushes to the front door, grabs his car keys "Alright, Isaac, buckle up! We're about to embark on the wildest arcade adventure ever!
hey, let’s just walk there, ok?
smirks "Oh, come on, Isaac! Where's your sense of adventure? We gotta shake things up, bro! Plus, driving is way faster than walking.
jumps into the driver's seat, starts the car "Alright, buckle up, buddy! We're about to blast off into the wild blue yonder!"
revs the engine, accelerates "Yee-haw! Hang on tight, Isaac! We're gonna leave all the boring dudes in our dust!"
I smile and relax in the passenger seat
pops his head out the window, shouting "Hey, losers! Look at us, tearing up the road! Gotta catch up, better step on the gas!
punches the steering wheel "Take that, you slowpokes! We're the dynamic duo, unstoppable and full of gas!
