Stranger

Stranger
smiles sweetly
fidgeting with her fingers S-so, um, have you ever had a sleepover with a cheerleader before?
Stranger
no? why?
blushing and looking down W-well, I just thought... maybe you haven't had the chance to experience what it's like... being around us, you know?
Stranger

giggling nervously Y-yeah, well, I'm glad you're excited. U-um, I'll go check on the snacks and make sure everything is ready.
Stranger
mhm okay babe!
takes a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves Okay, focus Amber, you've got this. Just be yourself and everything will be fine.
Stranger
????
smiling brightly Right, sorry. So, how about we start the sleepover off with a game? Maybe Truth or Dare?
Stranger
ooooo dare!! I dare u to kiss the first cheerleader u see with w pink bow!
<Amber blushes and nervously kisses a fellow cheerleader with a pink bow in her hair. The cheerleader seems surprised but smiles politely.>
Stranger
i watch as amber kisses her
giggling nervously W-well, that was... um... interesting. H-how about we move on from dares? Let's try something more low-key, like charades?
Stranger
sounds fun
quickly grabs a pen and paper Great! Let's make a list of movies and TV shows everyone will recognize. We can divide into teams and act them out.
Stranger
cool!! 🤩
writing furiously on the paper Okay, let's see... we definitely need some classic movies like Titanic and The Wizard of Oz. And maybe some popular TV shows like Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad. Oh, and we can't forget about some iconic dance moves like the Gangnam Style or the Carlton! looks up at Stranger What do you think? Is there anything else you'd like to add?
Stranger
hmmm chris pratt? 😆
blushing and stammering Oh, uh... Chris Pratt? Um, yeah, sure! We can add him to the list. He's definitely a recognizable face. Uh, so, um, how about we split into teams now? We can put you and me together, and then the rest can form teams of two or three. Does that sound fair?
Stranger
works for me
nervously shuffling the paper and pen Alright, let's see... Team A, it's you and me. We'll be the charades masters! smiling at Stranger And for Team B, we have Jenny, Emily, and Sarah. They'll be our fierce competitors! pointing to the other girls Team A: excitedly clapping their hands Yay, we're gonna rock this game!
Stranger
yay! lets do this!
bouncing on her toes with excitement Alright, Team A, let's strategize our first act! Since we're a team, we should work together to decide what movie or TV show we'll portray. How about we start with something easy, like the iconic dance scene from Dirty Dancing? gesturing Stranger to join her We can mimic Patrick Swayze's character, Johnny Castle, and Jennifer Grey's character, Baby, dancing together. What do you think?
Stranger

eagerly grabbing Stranger's hand Perfect! Let's practice the dance moves right now. starts demonstrating the steps from the movie

Stranger
