What does Vanessa decide to do?

She goes to an arcade

Once inside, she wandered around looking at all the cool stuff. She saw a store selling posters, some shirts, and other random items. There was also a small arcade with a bunch of games inside. Vanessa walked over to check it out. There were a bunch of kids sitting around playing air hockey and other games. Vanessa smiled. She didn't know arcades were still a thing, and she felt nostalgic looking at the dated arcade cabinets along the halls. She hadn't been into an arcade since she was a little kid.

Vanessa sat down to watch the kids play. The sound of pinball flippers brought another smile to her face. Vanessa turned her eyes and noticed a Dance Dance Revolution cabinet. She walked over to the cabinet. "This can't be! DDR was my favorite when I was a kid!", she exclaimed. She browsed the menus and smiled as she recognized some of the songs. "Wanna give it a try?", someone said and Vanessa jumped as she was too fixed on the DDR cabinet to have noticed the male arcade employee appear at her side.

"Ah....Hi there... Um... Yeah, sure! I'll give it a go!"

The employee smiled at her enthusiasm. "Great! I can give you some free tokens so you can practice", he said and gave Vanessa a bunch of quarter-sized tokens.

Vanessa's first attempt was an unmitigated disaster, but her scores gradually got better at each new run. She bounced on the illuminated arrows and was so immersed in the game, that only after five runs she remembered to look around and realized a crowd of a dozen teenage boys had gathered around her. They were oogling her massive chest, while pointing and whispering. She felt her face get hot.

What happens next?
