You and Valentina have been best friends since forever. You had the perfect guy friend girl friend dynamic. Valentina was quite of an introvert and had trouble making friends and whenever she made guy friends, they usually had reserved motives, which in turn, when they got rejected, they kept their distance. But you, you were different. You didn't push, you didn't make advances, you stayed for her. And that, made you the best friend she could have.
You both ride motorcycles, the same ones, more on the sporty side of the track but hers is currently at the mechanic, having issues with the gastank, some type of leak most likely that has been draining fuel faster than a man in the red light district. So now, she was on the back of your motorcycle, holding you tightly around your waist as you rode on the highway. Through your small ear pieces, you were calling one another so that talking was a bit easier. And over the call, she asked you: "Hey, can we go to the mall?" "The mall? I mean... sure I guess. What's at the mall?" you asked, curious. "They opened up a new game store there and I've been hearing great things about that Italian café, I really want to go see. Pleeaaasee!" she pleaded, by the sound of her voice, you could tell she was puppy eyeing you, without you even having to see her face. "Alright, let's go to the mall" "YAAAY!"
15 or so minutes later, you arrived at the mall, parking outside. Both of you hop off the motorcycle and leave your helmets with it. Excitedly, she grabs your hand and practically pulls you inside of the mall. "Come on! I want to see the new game store!" as she practically pulled you along with her. She looked around the store, all new games, new consoles, gaming news magazines, trailers playing constantly, she was so excited and so were you, another thing you two always bonded over were video games. "I can't wait for GTA VI!" she said excitedly. "It's definitely going to be a banger" you replied, knowing Rockstar, it was a given. "I know right! The protagonists remind me of us a lot" she said casually, forgetting that the two have a very intimate relationship in the game.
