* Aspyn's POV * 

I have never been to David's house so I think I'm kind of getting lost. Stupid apple maps. I pull over to change the app to Waze. It turns out that I was just around the corner. I pull up by his gate and I text Natalie that I'm here. 

 I see her opening the gate and motioning me to come inside. I notice that there is a lot of cars parked by his house. 

" Hey girl " I go in for a kiss on the cheek but she slaps my butt and I welp. 

" Hii. Why are there so many people here? " we walk inside. My mouth gapes open at the sight of the huge house. This is like my dream home. It is so beautiful in here. You're telling me that a 22-year-old bought this kind of house? Talk about reaching one of your goals early. I hope that one day I could be able to buy a house that I love.  

" It's game night today so everyone is over. It's gonna be fun, come on. " She drags me into their yard. This couldn't get any better, the yard is huge and he has a ping-pong table, there are lounge chairs and a fireplace. 

" For your information, Mr. Dreamy is over there, " I dart my eyes to where she is pointing and I see him. He's jumping up and down, cheering on Todd to win. He slightly turns his head by my direction and doesn't see me yet. But then he takes a second glance at me and gives me a head nod while he was waving. I wave back and crack a smile. 

" I'm staying by you as close as possible," I say through my teeth while I was waving. We both turn around to go sit on the lounge chairs.

" What? Why? " Natalie folded her hands in her lap. 

" Because we're gonna go on a date and I'm trying to avoid him so that I won't discuss any topics that I want to talk about tomorrow. So do me a favor and keep me entertained, would ya? " I give her a nudge. 

" You're unbelievable "she rolls her eyes. I sit right next to her so that we could be closer. The chair is big enough for both of us to fit comfortably. We were just watching them play as we hung out by each other. 

What they were doing seemed fun and they were really hyped for something this little. There had to be more to this than just having a fun game. 

" Why are they so excited? It's like they're cheering for football or the Olympics " I questioned. 

" They're playing for $5,000 " She shrugs as if it's no big deal. 

" WHAT ?! " I sit up in shock " Who's giving out the money?"

" David, duh "

" Girl, if he's giving out money, can he help me pay for my bills? Like what's good? " I threw my hands in the air. 

" You know what, I'm gonna go play " 

" Wha-? I thought you said you were gonna stay by me? " Natalie sits up and pouts. 

" I am, but one game ain't gonna hurt. " 

They don't know what I got up my sleeves.  " I heard y'all are playing for money, is that true? " I confidently walk up to them. 

David runs over to me with his camera, " Hey, hey, hey! Look who's here, it's Aspyn! "

" Yeah, yeah. I know I'm famous, " I joking say as I flip my hair " Y'all playin' for some cash? Let me in. "

" Oh really? You think you got this? " Jeff pushes by David.

" Baby, I got secrets up my sleeve that you don't know about " I clapped my hands.
