Holy shit.

As we enter the black arcade with neon accents I realize that I haven't been here yet.

In the far left of the building there's a full on bowling rink with concession stands off to the side.

In front of us is a skating rink that has a black light shining on it. I see a bunch of dads helping their younger daughter balance in the kiddie skates.

In the far right there's a bunch of random arcade games and racing games.

"Where did you find this place?" I ask Kayden in shock

"He didn't, I did" Carolina says from behind the counter of a slushy concession stand

She has a job?!

Since when does she have a job?!

"Since when do you have a job?" Charlotte questions as we make our way towards her

"Yesterday while you were at Aspens house" she says with a smirk

"They were desperate for new employees" she says with a shrug as she picks up an empty slushy container and starts to wash it

"Congratulations" I say to her with a smile which makes her laugh.

We're all quiet for a couple of seconds before Kayden opens his mouth.

"Guys, How about we go bowling" he suggests

Charlotte and I agree even though I suck at bowling.

Guess who's winning?

If you guessed Charlotte then you're correct.

Guess who's losing?

If you guessed Kayden then you're absolutely correct.

He's only losing because he's not trying what-so-ever.

"I'm getting bored" Charlotte comments as she leans back in her seat

"How?! You're winning!" I exclaim

She ignores my outburst and starts to look around before her eyes land on something.

"Want to play a game?" She questions with excitement

"We're playing a game right now" I say as I gesture towards the bowling lane

"A game that's more rewarding" She rewords which causes me to become interested

"What game?" I ask her which makes her smirk at my answer

"Race Hero 4, Pac-Man, and Wrestlers Duty 2" she responds

"Why three different games?" I ask her with a confused tone

"Whoever wins gets to do whatever they want to the loser for a month" she says with a suggestive smirk which makes me blush

"Within reason" I say so that she doesn't get any ideas

"Duh, I wouldn't take advantage of you" she says with an eye roll

"Okay, I'm in" I say as we shake hands

-

What the fuck!

I'm starting to think that I have a serious case of bad luck.

I only won one of the three games.

It was Pac-Man since I love that game.

I lost within the first five minutes with the other games.

"That's not fair" I shout at Charlotte as the bold 'you lost' letters flash on my screen
