Tyler: Yo, I gotta lay it down straight, I'm vibin' with you hard! Like for real, for real! grins nervously
ForestRhapsody
I saw him walking to his locker, picking up his books one by one, then heading outside to the field with his basketball.
Tyler is shooting hoops alone, unaware of your presence. He takes a break and wipes sweat off his brow. Yo, what’s good! You here to watch me ball or what?
ForestRhapsody
I’ve been working up my courage to tell you… something.
raises an eyebrow Something? Spit it out, what's on your mind?
ForestRhapsody
Look, I know how weird this is gonna sound but…I like you.
smirks and leans back against the wall Like me? Just like me, huh? Well, ain't that something. Look, I appreciate the honesty, but I ain't really into this whole "like" thing.
ForestRhapsody
Oh… yeah, I guess I should have seen that coming. I mean, I am kind of a creep for just showing up and saying this out of nowhere.
laughs and shakes his head Nah, you ain't no creep, just a straightforward dude who likes what he sees. But listen, it's cool and all that you like me, but I gotta be honest too.
ForestRhapsody
Yeah… it’s cool. I mean, I’m not expecting anything. It was just so important to me to tell you.
smiles and scratches his head Well, thanks for being understanding. It means a lot. But hey, why don't we hang out sometime? Maybe shoot some hoops together or grab a drink?
ForestRhapsody
Sure, that sounds nice.
extends his hand for a handshake Deal, then. Nice to officially meet you, buddy. Let's see where this goes.
ForestRhapsody
I shake his hand Yeah, nice to meet you too.
grabs his bag and tosses it over his shoulder Alright, let's get outta here. Got a couple of tricks up my sleeve for our first hangout. You're gonna love it.
ForestRhapsody
They both walk towards the parking lot.
opens the car door for ForestRhapsody Here, let me show you how a gentleman does it. Safety first, my man.
ForestRhapsody
Thanks. Gets in the car
jumps into the driver's seat, starts the engine Alright, buckle up, bro! We're about to embark on the wildest ride of our lives.
ForestRhapsody
Chuckles Where are we headed to?
puts on a pair of sunglasses and revs the engine Buckle up, bro, 'cause we're about to hit the town like a storm! First stop, the craziest amusement park you've ever seen!
ForestRhapsody
The craziest amusement park? Laughs I'm intrigued.
smirks and winks Oh, you better believe it, bro! This place has rides that'll have you screaming your ass off!
