Invited to play Shadowrun

"I'd like for you to join us to play a game of Shadowrun at my place on Saturday," Kyle says hopefully.

Tanya is absolutely aghast at the invitation and opens her mouth to let him know. "Sure, I'll join you for Shadowrun on Saturday. What time?" She covers her mouth as she finishes the sentence.

Kyle can't believe his ears. Neither can the rest of the group. Maggie really couldn't roll her eyes harder. "We-we start at 11 and play into the night. But, but, uh you should come over at 10 and I'll help you roll up a character."

Tanya thinks 'absolutely not.' She has cheerleading practice Saturday at 11 a.m. She'd never skip practice for something as childish and lame as a roleplaying game. "Sure thing! I'll be there at 10." She hears herself say. Tanya wants to run but she can't break free from Kyle's gaze. She's so confused. She hasn't missed a day of cheerleading practice in her entire high school career! She's co-captain! Yet part of her feels like she really wants to go to Kyle's on Saturday.

Maggie throws her hands up and storms off clearly unhappy about Kyle's invitation to the popular girl. Kyle, grinning as if someone handed him a million bucks says, "cool, cool. And you can wear anything you like. We won't judge your fashion sense. Heck, wear nothing but a trash bag. We'll call it trashion. See ya." Kyle laughs at what he thinks is clearly a silly joke before heading off down the hall with his friends.

Tanya stands in the hallway alone thinking about how she'd be able to stylishly wear a trash bag. She snaps out of it when the warning bell rings signaling the start of the next class. "Oh crap!" Tanya exclaims before heading to her final class of the day.
