10. You Would Like To Play?
Raissa leaned slightly to the left, trying to look around Maka at Soul and Hiro's death toll as they ducked behind buildings and continued to attack each other, even though they were on the same team.
Her gamers fingers itched, oh how she yearned to play.
Maka's book discussion on The Help though thoroughly interesting, was tiring. Plus, the flashes on the screen were keeping Raissa preoccupied, so before she knew it, she zoned out of the conversation.
Maka leaned in front of her line of vision, "Something the matter Raissa?" Raissa shook her head rapidly, "No." she scoffed, waving her hand absentmindedly, "No everything is fine, just wondering what that game is they are playing over there. You called it, CoD?" Maka nodded, "Yeah, Call of Duty. it's a war game."
Raissa smiled inwardly, she could fake naïve, and get to play it. "Oh?" she tilted her head ever-so-innocently, "I'd like to see it." Maka nodded again, politely and led Raissa to the red couch that Hiro and Soul sat on. Their gazes fixed intently on the screen of the plasma as if their actual lives depended on it.
Maka cleared her throat, to which Soul grunted, "Uh?" then Maka proceeded, "Raissa hasn't ever seen this game before, and she seems interested, surprisingly." to this Hiro and Soul paused Call of Duty to spy the French princess, pretending to keep cool. Maka finished with, "So I thought you should show her."
Soul turned his blood red eyes to Raissa, who felt an odd jolt in her heart as he said, "You . . . You'd like to play?"
Raissa, trying not to look to eager, nodded slowly. "I wish to know what it is." she spoke timidly, trying to retain composure, and look popular.
Soul handed her the controller, and scooted over on the couch. The French princess sat between Hiro and the scythe, and Maka sat on the couch arm patiently. Hoping Raissa would immediately find it boring, and move on.
She didn't.
