Keep playing but with a different game.

"No." Kay denied shortly. "I have plans every day for the next week. Tonight's the only night I have to relax. Let's just play something else then, okay?" Truthfully, Kay didn't but I was willing to let the lie go. It worked to my advantage after all. Besides, the angrier she was the less control she had.

"Are you sure? We can wait." Oh John. Ever the good guy. Good thing he had me to be the devil to his angel.

"Yeah, let's keep going. How about a fighting game? We both have Rampage. Why not play a little of that?" Hmm Rampage, eh? Perfect. Darling Kay was about to get a very, very rude awakening. John may be average at shooting games but when it comes to fighting games, he's unstoppable. I may not even have to do anything now.

"Okay..." John agreed, his voice soft due to the late hour. Quickly choosing their characters, both combatants went wild in the arena of their choice (some kind of bamboo covered mountain somewhere). Within seconds, it was obvious that John would not be losing at this game. Kay, on the other hand, was not going to win. Muting her microphone, Kay threw the headset down before marching over to her pillow. Lifting it, an inarticulate scream of pure rage reached me from across the room.

"He's not real." Kay told herself as she returned to her seat. "He's not a real person. He's got to be a bot or something. Maybe some stupid nerd hacked it and isn't even playing. That's it!" Kay growled as she reactivated her headset. "Hey, would you be willing to turn on a webcam? I've been having so much fun playing I just have to know who I'm playing against." Kay simpered while forcing the anger off of her face.

"Okay?" John agreed in confusion before asking me to set up the technology. "How's tha..." John trailed off in a distracted stupor as he finally saw the vision of beauty that was Kay. This was obviously not what he expected but I had picked her to be perfect for him.

"Oh how nice! I'm so glad to finally meet you face to face!" Kay spoke, her eyes locked onto John's image in order to catch him cheating. "Now, how about a rematch?" And so it continued, Kay played but lost easily all while trying to catch John cheating.

"Now I really have to go." John announced regretfully after another three rounds.

"Wait." Kay said anxiously as she saw John begin to reach for his controller's power button. "WAIT!" She demanded. Seeing John pause, Kay continued. "What if we made it more interesting?"

"I'm sorry?" John asked in confusion. I, however, was overjoyed. The prideful Kay was now exactly where I wanted her: willing to do anything to soothe her wounded pride. Now John just had to let loose a little bit and he would get everything he deserved.

"How about we make a few bets?" Kay continued. "Nothing too outrageous." Kay announced quickly at John's uncomfortable look (conversely I had to mute myself to stop my laughter from being heard by the two). "So how about it, wanna bet on the next round?"
