Walking out of the arcade laughing and chatting, it was already past eight in the evening and the moon was out in the sky, stars were slowly coming out.
Reuel had both hands in his pocket, while she had her hands filled with stuffed toys and more.
Her apartment was already filled with things like this due to her and Roxy's regular playing.
Roxy who didn't care for any of it and only played for the fun of crushing and crashing things and people, would give her own gifts to Erina too. So Erina had lots and lots of stuffed toys, and she just got more.
"How in the world are you so good at these games??" She finally asked, she wasn't mad that he won almost every game anymore, they ended the day nicely with the Virtual reality games.
"I mean, I was so certain that you wouldn't know much about games, and Roxy," Reuel tsked at the mention of her name, he just couldn't help it. He just didn't like the lady.
"Roxy was sure you would not even be interested." She completes her sentence as they strolled toward his car. "She says you're a businessman, and you wouldn't know about fun." Erina innocently says.
But her words only gave Reuel another reason to dislike the lady.
"Well, do let your friend know that I am a languid businessman, but an enthusiastic gamer." He opens the door for her, and she smiles and whispers a thank you.
*Urgh, this pair is an even bigger eyesore than his mother and Ligo were* Helfer hissed as he remembered what it was like when Reuel's mother started courting Ligo.
"Do you play games a lot? You have to, to be able to play this good!!" She answers her own question.
He leans in closer to her, and she wasn't even flustered, as she was expecting an answer to her question with her eyes curiously open wide.
He pulls her seatbelt and clasps it in, then tilts his head to the side as she still looked at him with questioning eyes, so he decides to feed her curiosity with answers.
"I not only own gaming arcades in different places for business, I have my own personal in-house Arcade." OH how much he enjoyed seeing this shocked look on her face, it was priceless.
"You have a gaming Arcade in your house???!" Her eyes grew wider, and he laughed.
"White, close your eyes for a second, you look really funny right now." He sincerely says as he laughed his heart out.
And Helfer could only roll his eyes. *This is beyond detestable,*
"I can't believe it!! No, what kind of games do you have?" She was desperately curious.
"Every kind you can think of." He shrugs, still laughing in gaps as he tried breathing and Helfer could only wonder, *what exactly is making him laugh?*
"That's impossible! You can't have everything!" She looked even more shocked than before, and her facial expression made him laugh harder.
His stomach hurt from laughing, but he just couldn't compose himself.
"Why would I lie?" He shrugs again.
"Show me!!" She suddenly says. And he didn't know if she was joking or being serious. "Drive to your house right now and show it to me! Otherwise, you're bluffing." She smirks, and he could see she was serious.
Maybe she didn't realize what she was saying, but she was inviting herself to his home, she was offering to go to his house!
"You want to go to my place?" He asks, spelling it out for her, he needed to confirm if she understood what she was saying.
"To see your so called gaming Arcade, yes." She affirmed, and he blinked. She was dead serious, she really wanted to go to his place.
And now that he thought about it, it's probably been almost a month since they'd been dating, and at this stage, he'd have already bedded his women, but to think it didn't even cross his mind to take her to his place or a hotel.
There had been chances that would have smoothly allowed for such, but he had no idea why he didn't!
He was having so much fun, that he was finding fulfillment in the strangest things, and completely forgetting the things that he labeled important.
And now that she was inviting herself over to his place, what was he supposed to do? Yes, women had done the same thing in the past, but it was different, those women wanted to get intimate and have sex.
Never had a woman invite herself to his place for games!!! His dear, White, is the first one ever to do so.
But then again, he has never told anyone else about it before either.
"What are you waiting for? Drive to your house, let's see your gaming collection!" She orders, and he couldn't stop the chuckle that left his lips.
He's said it over and over, but she really was something different... Something different and sweet.
He sits up straight on his seat, one hand on the wheel as he pushed the engine to a start and agreed, "Alright, get ready to be amazed!"
