First things first, I wanted to point out that the next chapter (technically this one) is the 100th chapter of this story. Crazy to think I've written this much. I wanted to know if there's anything you would all like to see to celebrate it. It might not be literally the next chapter, but I feel I should do something special for the occasion, I just don't have any ideas on what would be suitable for it at the moment.
(Y/N) POV
(Y/N) looked at the cards in his hands before smiling mischievously and placing it down in the center of the table that had (Y/N), Shiver, Frye, and Big Man all around the table.
However, the smile disappeared as Shiver placed a card that undid the "great play" (Y/N) thought he was making.
(Y/N): I hate Tableturf...
Shiver: Maybe you should try and play better.
She said with a smirk.
Frye: Y'know I can still help you get better, right?
She said as she put down her card.
(Y/N): No thanks. You're good at the game, but not so great of a teacher.
Frye pouted at his insinuation.
Big Man: Ay. (I've got a beginner's guidebook I can lend you.)
Big Man said while putting down his card.
(Y/N): Nah, I got this.
He said while carefully thinking about his next move before placing a card. Suddenly, Shiver slammed down her card on top of his immediately, with her having read his next move like a book.
(Y/N) glared at her while she smiled evilly at him.
(Y/N): You are such a jerk, you know that?
Shiver: Stay mad.
She said, unable to rid her face of her smile.
Frye: Are you sure you wanna keep playing Tableturf?
(Y/N): Of course, I do. I want to get better. Besides, what else is there to do right now?
Frye: Well... You could always tell us about what's going on between you and Pearl..?
(Y/N) sighed.
(Y/N): I already told you three, nothing is going on between Pearl and I. We're perfectly fine.
Frye: Well, you say that but-...
Shiver: -Pearl has been kinda low contact recently.
Big Man: Ay. (And you've seemed kinda tense recently.)
(Y/N) laid his cards down on the table for a moment.
(Y/N): Look, it's stuff that happened a long time ago. It doesn't matter anymore. Pearl and I are different people from who we were, and that's all that matters. I've got no issue with Pearl. We're friends. Honestly, I was more surprised by the reveal that the girl from back then was actually a couple of years older than me. I thought she was in the same grade as me since we were about the same size.
Big Man: Ayy. (Then how come you haven't been hanging out with her since then?)
(Y/N): That's because she doesn't want to right now. She'll see it's nothing for us to give too much attention to and go back to normal soon enough.
Frye: And if she doesn't?
Shiver: Yeah, I know this is crazy for me of all people to be suggesting, but maybe you should do something more... proactive?
