"Would you be up for a movie?", Owen asked his girlfriend when they met in the hallway after bringing the kids to bed. "Maybe we can watch one in the living room with Teddy.", he suggested, watching her nod.

"What the-", Amelia spoke up in shock when they walked into the room, only to find their friend sitting at the table that she had prepared for what seemed like a game or something. "What is this?", she wondered.

"You guys are supposed to get to know one another better. So, take a seat.", the blonde ordered, pointing to the two chairs across from her. "Now!", she firmly demanded, causing the couple to do what they were told. "We are playing 'Who would rather?'. Are you familiar with the rules?", she questioned and both of them nodded. "Perfect!"

"Why would you arrange this? You know I hate games.", her best friend grumbled, not in the mood to spend his evening this way. He wanted to get to know Amelia better, but they would have a date on Saturday anyway.

"Shut up and play!", Teddy commanded mercilessly, causing him to sigh. "Take your sheets of paper with your names on them and let's start. Who would be the better agent?", she asked the first question.

"Me? Why would you choose me?", the neurosurgeon wanted to know since she was very sure that her boyfriend would be a way better agent than her. "I am too chatty and clumsy for such a job.", she reminded him.

"Because you would be fucking hot as an agent.", he flirted, making her blush while she chuckled. "What?", he looked at his friend, who stared at him unamused.

"Do you need me to explain the rules after all? This is not what the game is about, dumbass!", the cardio surgeon scolded him. "Seriously! Get it together!", she warned the redhead, who crossed his arms as he pouted. "Big baby.", she mumbled. "Next one. Who would move to another country?"

"Where's the Teddy card?", Amelia joked, holding up the sheet of paper with her name on it. Her boyfriend did the same. "Easy. See? We do know each other rather well.", she arrogantly pointed out.

"Oh, come on, that was one freaking question you guys managed to get right because it is kinda obvious since Owen is way too uptight to even consider the thought.", the blonde replied. "God, why did I do this to myself?!", she rhetorically questioned, hearing her friends giggle. "Who would be able to stay silent for an entire week?"

"I mean, Ames said she's too chatty to be an agent about three minutes ago. She basically spoiled this one although it was super clear anyway.", the trauma surgeon said and shrugged. Both had chosen the sheet with Amelia's name on it.

"Ames?", the brunette repeated the nickname in wonder. He had never used it before. "I really like that one.", she sweetly smiled at her boyfriend, who beamed as he heard her say that. "And he's right. I can't even shut up for a day."

"Who would cook the better three-course meal?", Teddy asked the next question. Now her female friend was the unamused one, breaking her will to stay serious and making her laugh. "I am just going through a list of questions.", she justified.

"Now that's just plain bullying.", the neurosurgeon complained, grabbing the card with Owen's name to hold it up. He had been holding his own up for a minute now. "Arrogant asshole. Could have considered being nice.", she dramatically informed him but smirked.

"Excuse me?", Owen laughed at her outburst. "Someone has chosen to be naughty today. It's the truth and you know it.", he cheekily winked at his girlfriend. "And if you agree with me, I might even cook a three-course meal for us for lunch tomorrow since it's my day off."

"I never said anything.", Amelia lied, looking forward to the food she had just been promised because he was right. His cooking skills were excellent and hers simply horrifying. "Next question, please."

"Who would take care of the other once they're sick?", their friend wanted to know and started beaming when both of them held up both sheets each. "You are way too sweet for me. "Last one for today. Who would rather suggest a threesome?"

"Are you kidding me?", the redhead whined. He knew it was Amelia, but he hated the question because that was something she was definitely capable of doing and she wouldn't shy away from it. They agreed on this one again by holding up the card with her name on it.

"You said last one, so anyone wanna have a threesome?", the brunette innocently questioned, looking back and forth between Teddy and Owen. "Now all of us have gotten the incredible chance of making an unamused facial expression tonight. Congrats, babe!", she addressed her boyfriend, who continued staring at her. "Love you!", she grinned, pecking his lips. "Now a movie?"

"Yes!", the cardio surgeon agreed. "I'll get the snacks ready.", she let the couple know and put away the game, so they could play again another time. They just didn't want the kids to find the supplies. "I realize that this didn't, in any way, help you get to know each other better...but at least it was fun, and I am sure that Owen just wants to do you know.", she giggled.
