Re: Around 10 PM
Matt wasn't much for gambling, but what the birthday girl wanted, she would get. He flagged down a server to bring them two beers (his princess seemed like the kind of girl who wouldn't turn her nose up at a beer). "Keep the change," he half-shouted over the buzz of the casino, though the server was still giving him an odd look.
But none of that mattered as soon as his princess hit the jackpot. He cheered loudly, drawing the attention of many of the other gamblers nearby. "It's her birthday!" he said to anyone whose gazes lingered.
Soon enough, the server brought their drinks, and Matt thought he could spend the rest of the night just like this: watching his Scottish princess get excited and cheering her on.
