Playing games, want to join?

"Nothing much," You find yourself saying. "Maybe play some games, want to play?"

Alex just kind of stares at you, aware of what you both had just done a few minutes ago. What you both were wanting to do, too. Carl just blinks, but then smiles a goofy smile.

"That'd be fun!" He says jovially, as he smiles. "I've been wanting to play that new game we got - what's it called Alex? Catch Phrase?"

Alex rolled his eyes, since that wasn't really a new game.

"We need at least four people to play that, with teams. How about Chinese checkers?"

It's a little bit of a boring game, but you don't mind. Anything to distract from the pulsing in your groin. Seeing the lack of reaction that had garnered for his nerd suggestion he offered.

"Or we could play the wii?"

"Oh! Wii golf!" Alex's father got unreasonably excited, but that was just the way he was about something he really liked. "That sound good?"

You think it's cute that Carl is so pleased by something so simple. Alex nods, easily acquiescing, as he turns to go upstairs. "Gimme a minute, I have to go get the system. It's in the spare room somewhere..." He paused as he looked to you. "Want to come on up with me?"

You hesitate. You want to put some space between the two of you because everything was going so fast. The best way to do that was to hang out with his dad. What better way to cockblock than by a parent?

"I'll stay down here," You wrinkled your nose. "Who knows what you've got laying about up there?"

The two men laughed and Alex left, leaving you alone with Carl.
