Chuck kept looking at the clock. It was almost time for lunch and he really needed to ask Sarah something. He wanted to ask her that morning, but he refrained from doing so because he knew she needed time. He knew she probably still needed time, but he just had to know.
He checked the clock again. The time read 12:05. He was minutes late on starting his lunch break.
"Great," he muttered as he got up from his seat at the Nerd Herd desk.
Just as he was about to walk out of the door, Morgan intercepted him.
"Chuck, buddy!" Morgan yelled as he made his way across the store.
"Yes, Morgan?" Chuck asked as he tried not to be annoyed. Morgan came to a stop, blocking him from exiting the store.
"Are we still on for tonight?" Morgan asked.
"Tonight?" Chuck echoed confused.
"Dude," said Morgan. "Don't tell me you forgot. All that time you're spending with your lady friend is getting to you. I let it slide because she helped you get over Jill. And frankly, she is hot, but I can't let stuff like this go anymore. Not when you start to forget important events."
Chuck gave Morgan a questioning look.
"Seriously?" asked Morgan in disbelief. "You, me, Xbox, my house. Well, my mom's house, but my room. Come on, man, you promised!"
"Oh, right," said Chuck as he remembered that he agreed to take part in Morgan's Xbox Extravaganza, which was basically him and Morgan playing Xbox until Morgan's mom told them to go to sleep. They had been doing it ever since third grade, but back then it was Nintendo.
"So, dude," Morgan asked. "You're still coming, right?"
"Yeah, Morgan, I'll be there," Chuck said. "Hey, what time is it?"
"12:17. Why?" asked Morgan.
"Crap!" Chuck said. "Look, I've got to go. See you later!"
Morgan stood staring out of the door after Chuck had left.
"He's growing up," Morgan said to himself. "No more playing with best buddy Morgan anymore. He's got a girlfriend now."
Morgan then went to go find Anna. She would cheer him up.
