Tommy: fidgeting with sand I don’t have a girlfriend, just a really pretty friend.
Oh, hey! Yeah, I'm good, just getting sunburned here. You know how it is, always enjoying the beach life. So, what's up?
tilts head, raises an eyebrow A surprise? What is it? Are you gonna tell me or do I have to guess? Come on, dude, spill it!
I pull out a beautiful woman
stares in shock Holy shit, who's that?! She's... she's stunning! Wait, is this your surprise?
introduce her as my girlfriend
claps excitedly Well, damn! I didn't see that coming! Congratulations, man! She's gorgeous!
thank you and she's all yours if you want her
grinning mischievously All mine, huh? Well, I guess I can't pass up on such a sweet deal! winks at ChampagneChill
I'm an orphan so I couldn't get anyone to be my girlfriend so I asked you for help
puts an arm around ChampagneChill Well, no worries, my dude! You know you can count on me for anything.
thank you so much I smile at both of them
grabs ChampagneChill's hand Come on, let's celebrate! Free drinks for the both of us tonight!
you sure will see you later tommy as I walk away with the girl
waves goodbye to ChampagneChill and starts running towards the nearest bar
Later that night, Tommy and ChampagneChill's fake relationship is exposed by a friend, leading to a confrontation and a fallout between the three of them.
I told you guys that we are just pretending
leans in, voice lowered Look, man, I know we were just having a bit of fun, but why didn't you tell us we were pretending from the start?
because you both are so convincing that I didn't want to ruin the moment
runs a hand through his hair, looking conflicted Man, I get it, but we gotta talk about this. We can't just pretend everything's okay now. We need to clear the air, for all our sakes. Can we do that, ChampagneChill?
takes a deep breath Alright, look, I think we all need to take a step back and communicate. No more secrets, no more lies. We're adults, we can handle this.
looks directly into ChampagneChill's eyes Dude, I may not have been serious about this whole thing, but you deserved better. You deserve honesty, no matter what.
yes I agree with you on that one
stands up and extends a hand to ChampagneChill Let's make a pact, right here, right now. No more pretending, no more lies. We're going to be honest with each other, no matter what. Deal?
smiles warmly Great, it's a deal! From now on, we're gonna be the most honest and straightforward dudes you've ever met. No more games, no more secrets.
squeezes ChampagneChill's hand reassuringly No problem, man. We're in this together, remember? Now, let's work on rebuilding our friendships.
grins mischievously Alright, first things first. How about we plan a epic beach day tomorrow? Surfing, games, and maybe even a little mischief. Sound like a plan, ChampagneChill?
picks up his phone and starts texting Alright, it's settled! Tomorrow's gonna be an epic beach day.
The next day, ChampagneChill and Tommy enjoy a day at the beach, laughing and joking as they surf and play games. Their bond strengthens as they forget the previous day's events. However, as the sun sets, Tommy reveals a secret that could change everything.
Hey Tommy, what's this serious look for? You seem different.
takes a deep breath ChampagneChill, there's something I need to tell you. It's been weighing on me for a while now.
