Thread: Maddox & Roxy Who: Maddox Ripley and Roxy Smith. When: January 12. Afternoon. Where: In town. Pac-Man Fever (ie. the Arcade). What: Playing arcade games. Dur!
Maddox had found Roxy in the cafeteria at lunchtime and convinced her to skip off classes for the afternoon. Sure, that would inevitably lead to detention, but he didn't care. Maddox had a daily detention, pretty much, and he wasn't one of those students who had a whine when he got in trouble. He was smart enough to know that trouble equallyed consequences. He just didn't care.
They had piled into a car that wasn't his. It was borrowed. From RJ. He didn't think the guy would mind. Maddox had hotwired it instead of tracking RJ down to borrow the keys, and off they went, into town. He parked in the mall parking lot and they had headed in.
The Arcade was a big arcade. Stuffed full of games. Some were old school games like Pac-Man and Double Dragon and Space Invaders, and some were brand spanking new, the newest of the new. And there were sit down racing games and space games and lots of shooting games with plastic guns. And other games like DDR and air hockey and what not. A claw machine. Two, actually. All sorts of stuff.
"What do you want to play first, Red?" Maddox asked with a grin after he'd stuffed a tenner into the change machine and got a whole bunch of coins. He stuffed them into his pockets.
