“Of course!” Zoey replied, beaming. She hopped up as well. “That is what I came here for originally.” She chuckled.

Sage laughed and grabbed both their hands before heading off towards the arcade area, "Okay then let's go!"

Zoey giggled like a little girl, blushing at a bit at the hand-holding part. "Yay!" she cheered. "I'm ready to get my game on!"

Scorpius smiles gently as the two scurried off before leaning back in his chair. "We'll head out in about a half hour, Just so those two don't blow all their money." He chuckles quietly before shaking his head. "So. Virgo. I know that we're playing truth or dare. Are there any games you in mind? Any that you haven't played in a while?" He asks curiously. "I have a lot of stuff at home, so don't be shy to ask." He smiles warmly at the other. "And we'll all probably just chill in my room for the most part. It is a Friday after all." He laughs lightly.

Virgo laughed a little, then took a moment to think. “Hmm, I don’t really know. I grew up on stuff like Monopoly and board games mostly.” Virgo was an absolute master at Monopoly, at least he considered himself to be. He leaned his head on the table as he gave it a little more thought, “Maybe charades? I hear that’s a fun party game?” Virgo couldn’t stop the soft blush from arising to his face at the warm smiles he got from Scorpius, leaving a very fuzzy feeling inside.

Scorpius listened intently, his smile never faltering in the slightest. "I have Monopoly at home, it's a lot of fun." He giggles quietly. He fiddled with his fingers for a moment, waiting for Virgo to think. "Charades could be fun too." He runs a hand through his hair, humming in content. "Oh. I should probably tell everyone to bring a swimsuit. We just got our pool fixed." He looked rather nervous. Scorpius was always shy about the amount of money his family had. He never really got attention from his parents since they were working all the time.

Julia thought of swimming, it was her favorite. She grinned. “How big is your pool?” She asked excitedly

Zoey giggled like a little girl, blushing at a bit at the hand-holding part. "Yay!" she cheered. "I'm ready to get my game on!"

Sgae laughed, "Me too! So which game first?"

Julia re-visited her thoughts, realizing she didn’t notice Sage grabbing her hand, when she realized it, her face turned completely red for a reason she didn’t know, so she hid it with her jacket. “Uh… Can we play some old fashion PacMan?” She said awkwardly, avoiding starring at Sage like she did before.

Sage grinned and looked at Julia, "Sure! We can each take turns playing or maybe everyone take a machine if they have more than one."

Julia’s eyes caught onto a DDR(Dance Dance Revolution for you non gamers) machine. She walked over to it and starred at it for a while, not looking away. “Can we play DDR pretty please?”

Sage looked at the machine, "Yeah we can play that instead! Zoey loves that game right Zoey?"

Scorpius listened intently, his smile never faltering in the slightest. "I have Monopoly at home, it's a lot of fun." He giggles quietly. He fiddled with his fingers for a moment, waiting for Virgo to think. "Charades could be fun too." He runs a hand through his hair, humming in content. "Oh. I should probably tell everyone to bring a swimsuit. We just got our pool fixed." He looked rather nervous. Scorpius was always shy about the amount of money his family had. He never really got attention from his parents since they were working all the time.

“A pool?” Virgo’s eye’s widened a little in delightful surprise, his traitorous mind picturing Scorpius shirtless which caused a blush to arise from his cheeks. “That’s actually really cool, I’m not a great swimmer but it sounds really fun.“ He noticed a slight shift in Scorpius, indeed seeing how he looked nervous, so he offered a bright grin at Scorpius in hopes of distracting him from whatever was on his mind.

Scorpius smiled warmly at Virgo's response. It was so cute- Scorpius chuckled quietly, his eyes shutting in bliss for a moment. "It's wonderful. It's cold enough that it's nice on a hot day but warm enough you don't freeze your butt of either. And it's indoors." He laughs quietly. He glanced over at the other and his heart nearly stopped in its tracks. There, right on Virgo's lips was the sweetest smile he had aver witnessed. He gulped softly and smiled in reply, a small pink flushing across his freckled cheeks.

Sage looked at the machine, "Yeah we can play that instead! Zoey loves that game right Zoey?"

”Oh my gosh it’s only my favorite arcade game ever! Let’s play it!” Zoey said with a grin, hurrying over to it as well. “How about a competition? Loser buys the winner a candy bar!”

Virgo smiled a little bit more, failing to notice the small blush on Scorpius’ cheeks. “I really hope I still have my swim shirt, hanging out in your pool seems really awesome.” Virgo shifted where he was sitting, accidentally inching closer to Scorpius in the process. Virgo was drawn to things and people that he trusted, and he was already trusting of Scorpius.

Sage laughed and ran over with her, "You're on!"

Scorpius smiled warmly at the other. "And don't worry. I have some extra swimsuits and such." He glances at the other and chuckled softly. He liked how close the other was, actually. Scorpius liked being around other people. And he trusted Virgo wholeheartedly. He tilts his head a little at the other and smiled. "So. What do you like to do?" He asks curiously, sipping casually at his drink.

Virgo smiled -why did Scorpius look so handsome?- and thought it over. “Well…” Virgo started off softly, his cheeks still tinted with pink slightly, “I really like reading. And movies, when you can curl up on the couch in a blanket and stuff. I really enjoy my job at the pet store too, which is nice.” Virgo took a sip of his own drink, and his smile didn’t fade in the slightest.

Sage laughed and ran over with her, "You're on!"

Zoey smirked and put some money in the coin slot. “Prepare to lose then!”

"No, you prepare!" Sage responded putting a coin in as well.

“I will prepare! To win! What song do you want?” Zoey asked her.

Virgo smiled -why did Scorpius look so handsome?- and thought it over. “Well…” Virgo started off softly, his cheeks still tinted with pink slightly, “I really like reading. And movies, when you can curl up on the couch in a blanket and stuff. I really enjoy my job at the pet store too, which is nice.” Virgo took a sip of his own drink, and his smile didn’t fade in the slightest.

Scorpius leaned forwards intently, his eyes trained on the male beside him, a small smile gracing his soft lips. He noticed the pink on Virgo's cheeks and that only made him smile more. Reading, movies, curling up in a couch and snuggled in a blanket - gosh he was to cute. And the pet store was a nice touch. Scorpius smiled widely when the other took a sip of his own drink. He hummed curiously. "I know this is out of the blue… But. You single, Virgo?"

"Whatever song you choose," Zage responded stepping up to the game.

“Rookie mistake,” Zoey replied with a grin, selecting her favorite song, which was a pretty hard one. She used to come to the arcade all the time to practice this game, and this song had always been her best one. “Get ready to lose.”
