It Wasn't Intentional

So was Cherry. She didn't even own any consoles. She couldn't say that though considering it sounded like she was playing Mario Kart at home. That definitely required some sort of console.

'I see' she sent back lamely before sending a follow-up text. 'Nothing wrong with that'

There was nothing wrong with that at all. She loved everything about arcades from the ambiance to the sense of satisfaction derived from hitting a jackpot and being able to redeem a bunch of tickets at once for prizes.

It would be nice if they could play here together but she couldn't let on that she spent a lot of time in arcades. That was too close to what little he knew about her as Sherry.

'Glad you think so. Are you busy tonight?' Scott asked.

Cherry really did need to go hit a club tonight so… 'Not until 7'

'What about right now?'

'Now doesn't work. Give me an hour, okay? We can go walk around the park or something since the weather's nice'

'Sounds good to me! I'll meet you there'
