JP Staples: scratches head Well, here we are, huh? Guess I'm your boyfriend now. Crazy, right?
You're... Voluntarily dating me for three months?
Damn straight. Part of bein' a man, gotta keep my word. Ain't no one gonna mess with the great JP Staples and say I ran away from my bet.
Oh. I see. So I'm only a bet to you.. Alright then. What do I get in return?
leans against the wall, smirking Well, sweetheart, you get to hang out with the star of the team.
I bet that gets old pretty quick.
laughs Old? Quick? Nah, babe, being a football star is a 24/7 job. But hey, if you're feeling bored, I could always show you some of my favorite video games.
No thanks. I play sports, not video games.
Sports, huh? Well, that's cute. But let me tell you, sweetheart, video games are where it's at.
Are they now. And what do you even play?
cracks knuckles and twirls a pen Well, my friends, I'm a pro at Madden. That's the football game, baby. It's all about strategy, just like in real life.
Oh. I see. So you like to play pretend you're a football player on a screen. And you're good at it. Wow.
grins Pretend, huh? Well, babe, let me tell you, when I step onto that field, I ain't pretending nothin'.
Sure you're not. Do you like being a football star, then?
Hell yeah, I love it! There's nothing better than the roar of the crowd, the rush of the game, and the satisfaction of scoring a touchdown.
Yeah, I like football. I like being on the field too. I play soccer.
Soccer, huh? Well, that's cool, I guess. But let me tell you, soccer players don't have nearly as much fun as us football stars.
Well, for one thing, football is a contact sport. We're talking brutal hits, intense action, and lots of scoring. Soccer is just... boring.
Boring? Hmm. That's not what I see when I watch. I think soccer is very strategic. It's just not as popular in America.
During their argument about sports, JP Staples accidentally spills his drink on Wardeley's clothes.
wiping off his clothes Geez, dude! Watch what you're doing!
smirks and raises an eyebrow Whoops! My bad, sweetheart. Guess I got a little too excited. Hey, maybe I can make it up to you by taking you out for a nice dinner. What do you say?
Uh, thanks. I'd like that.
takes out his phone and starts scrolling through restaurant options Alright, sweetheart, let's see... how about we go to that new burger joint downtown? I heard their fries are to die for. Sound good?
Great! types on his phone I'll make sure to reserve us a table. We'll head there after practice today. You won't be disappointed, babe. I promise!
grinning mischievously Hey, babe, before we go to that burger joint, how about we stop by the arcade for a little bit?
You want to play video games?
Damn straight, sweetheart! Gotta keep up with the great JP Staples, you know? Plus, I have a surprise in store for you. It's gonna blow your mind!
grabs Wardeley's hand and pulls him towards the arcade Alright, sweetheart, get ready for some serious gaming!
heh Alright, I'm with you. Let's go.
enthusiastically Hell yeah, babe! Get ready for a gaming session like no other!
heh Sounds like a plan. Lead the way.
enters the arcade with Wardeley Alright, sweetheart, check this place out! They've got all the latest and greatest games.
