Third person P.O.V

Y/n was eating lunch with her boyfriend, Vance. They had been dating for a few months now.

"So, Y/n." He spoke, "Do you wanna go on a pinball date with me? At the arcade, or the gas station where I normally go?"

"Oh, yeah of course! How about after school?" She responded. "Uh yeah, that's fine." He smiled.

The bell rang and they both went to their last class. Y/n had math, Vance had Science. Y/n drifted into her thoughts as the teacher spoke.

"Miss L/n." The teacher said, snapping her out of her thoughts. "Y-Yes?" She responded. "What's the answer to this equation?" The teacher asked.

Y/n hadn't been listening, so she looked around, hoping somebody would help. That's when she felt someone tap her. It was her partner.

The girl held up her fingers on the table making sure the teacher didn't notice. A five, and then a nine.

"59?" Y/n answered in a hopeful tone. "Yes, very well Miss L/n."

She let out a sigh of relief before the bell rang. She quickly grabbed her stuff and walked out of the classroom to find Vance.

Y/n P.O.V

I left math to go find Vance. I found him at his locker and went up to him, "You ready to go?"

He looked at me and shut his locker. "Yeah, but you never said if you wanted to go to the gas station or the arcade." He chuckled.

"Right! The arcade." I smiled. He took my hand and we left. We walked to the arcade which wasn't that far, but before we got there we stopped by my house to put our things away and get money.

We walked inside the arcade and Vance exchanged our quarters for game coins. He handed me some and he took the rest.

He went right over to the pinball machine and inserted a coin. After a few minutes, his score had gone up to 94,000.

"Gosh, you're really good at this." I giggled at how invested he was in the game. He hummed in response.

Now, his score was up to 234,000. "That was.. fast." I spoke, amazed at how quick he had made his score go up.

The ball fell and the game ended. "Yes! I beat my high score!" He looked at me smiling.

I high fived him before kissing him on the cheek. "Think you could teach me how to play?" I asked.

"Sure." He responded. I inserted a coin into the machine. He told me how to use the buttons on the side. "Yup, just like that." He said.

My score was up to 30,000. I seemed to actually be pretty good! I was super focused, nothing was gonna stop me at this point.

My score was now up to 100,079. "You seem like a natural?" Vance spoke, smiling. I hummed in response.

Some kid bumped into the machine, causing the ball to fall. "Damn it!" I shouted in anger. I looked at the person who bumped into the machine.

The boy looked to be around, 13 or 14. "Watch where you're going next time asshole!" I hissed.

"Hey, calm down. I got arrested for that once. Don't want that to happen to you too." He said.

I forgot Vance had a lot of anger issues, before he met me. I was with him when he beat up that kid at the gas station for messing up his game.

I had to wait for him to be let out that day. I sighed and looked back at the machine. "Why don't we go get slushy's?" I suggested.

"Sure." He smiled. We left the part of the arcade with the games and went to get drinks. He payed and we found a table to sit down at.

"You know Vance, this was the best date ever."

(YAYYYYYYYY!!! THE ARCADE. It seems like y/n is also pretty good at pinball too!!)
