"Damn no way I lost again!" Joey laughed as he threw the remote onto the floor.

Corey poked his tongue out "I can't help I'm too good." He laughed.

"It's not fair!" Joey whined. "You always beat me!"

"Like i said I Cant help being too good." Corey laughed as he ate another chip.

They two where playing tekken. The classic fighting game on Joeys ps1. It was a game they usually played together after school where Corey would come and crash at Joey's house for a bit before he went home, to wherever it was because Joey had not seen it. The two fifteen year olds found great pleasure in playing it together.

Joey switched off the console with a sigh.

"Too scared to lose to me again?" Corey laugh.

"Yes." Joey sighed in defeat hiding behind his hair.

"Are you okay?"

Joey smiled and laughed as he shook his head "youre a dick."

"You love me really." Corey snorted

Corey sped to the arcade, parking the car and running in. His heart was pumping as he could barely catch his breath. He was on a mission. Save Joey. He saw Darren near some machines. He had no clue where Joey was and the bright lights just started to give him a headache.

"Nathan!" He called, looking around and not seeing him anywhere. He knew Joey hated being called that but he also knew he couldnt quite yell 'Joey' without getting Darrens attention, which wasnt his aim.

"Nathan?" He said walking further down into the arcade.

"Corey?" He flinched and turned around to see Darren.

Darren and Corey knew eachother from one too many fucked up house parties. Darren usually being the one asked to leave first. He was a misogynistic, drooling idiot. The kind of guy who would chase after someone if he knew someone else liked them. He was an annoying bastard, and Corey hated him.

"Oh..hey dude." Corey said, giving him a false smile.

"Havent seen you in a while. How've you been?" He asked coming up to him.

"Uh yeah. Yeah. Fine." Corey said, he felt his anger rising. This guy was gonna hurt Joey and Corey was not okay with that. "You?" He asked holding back his anger.

"Yeah. Bit pissed actually. I had this date with this uh..girl and shes ran off. What a bitch right?" He laughed.

Corey glared. How dare he call Joey that!? "Yeah."

"You havent seen her? Shes was wearing a black sabbath shirt about this high." He said gesturing with his hand.

Corey shook his head.

"Shame." Darren said "who you looking for?"

"Oh. My friend Nathan." Corey said looking away.
