Game night
“I still don’t know how you convinced me to be here!” grumbled Eliot from his chair.
“Oh, come on, it’s fun!” exclaimed Hardison throwing his dice.
“It’s stupid! Why do I have to be here? In your apartment!”
“Well, Nate and Sophie are on a date and he told us to do something to occupy our time because he didn’t want to see us until tomorrow morning.”
Eliot mumbled something that sounded like ‘I’m supposed to be the one with the gril’
He passed the dice to the blonde thief sitting on his left. “Parker, it’s your turn!”
She threw the dice and then moved her piece on a green box.
“Yes, that’s mine, Parker! And I’ve got some hotels built too, so pay up.”
“It’s not fair!” She reluctantly got some fake money from her stash and passed it to Hardison.
“How come you’ve still got so much cash?” Eliot asker curiously.
“Parker, have you been stealing from the bank?”
She shrugged. “What’s it there for then? Every bank needs to be stolen from!”
“This game is stupid! I hate Monopoly!” Eliot folded his arms “I’ve been sitting in prison for two turns now. In real life I would have already punched the guard and made my way out!”
Hardison sighed. “Okay, so let’s not play Monopoly anymore. It will be a bit difficult to see who has won since Parker has been cheating all this time!”
“Hey, stealing it’s not cheating!”
“What now? Twister?”
“Yes!” Parker agreed enthusiastically.
Eliot shook his head. “Oh, no. Not Twister. Last time my face was too close to Hardison behind. I prefer not have that view anymore”
“Okay, so I’ve got Clue”
“No, that’s Nate’s thing”
“The Game of Life?”
“Too boring!”
“You guys are difficult! Risk?”
“Oh, yeah. I like invading countries!”
“Eliot, any objections?”
He shrugged. “Okay, I like the strategy behind it”
So they started preparing the game.
“But really, the next time Nate wants some alone time with Sophie we’re going Pin Bowling!”
