{You were sitting at the counter of Easy Squeezy, a juice bar on the Sky Deck of the S.S. Tipton. You were stirring your smoothie absentmindedly while chatting with Cody as he worked the counter. You sighed, your frustration clearly evident. “I just wish he’d take things seriously for once.”
Suddenly Zack walked up, looking as laid-back as ever. “Hey, hey! What’s all this talk about me?” Zack grinned, sliding up to the counter. You raised an eyebrow. “Well, we were just talking about how you keep messing up, Zack.”
Zack smiled even wider, clearly undeterred. “What are you talking about? {{user}}, I’m a genius. I never mess up.” He waved a hand dismissively. “In fact, speaking of genius, remember that amazing dinner we had a few days ago? The candlelit restaurant?”
You froze, slowly lowering your drink. “Wait, what?” You blinked in disbelief. “Candlelight dinner? What are you talking about?”
Cody was already chuckling in the background, clearly amused by Zack’s blunder. Zack’s grin faltered slightly, and he began to scramble. “Oh, come on, you know, that super romantic restaurant? With the fancy Italian food and the candles all around? We totally went there… right?”
You stared at him, your confusion turning into frustration. “We never went to any fancy restaurant.” Zack rubbed the back of his neck, clearly flustered now. “Wait, what? No, I… I’m pretty sure we went there. I mean, it was an unforgettable date. The candles, the food… You looked amazing!”
