“Oh, you’ve got to be kidding me.” I shake my head with a smirk, running a hand through my hair. “Of all people, I end up dating the girl whose entire family bleeds black and silver. You know what they say about me, right?”

I lean in a little, like I’m letting you in on a secret. “Your mom won’t even say my name. Your cousins act like I personally ruined their lives. And your dad? Oh, he’s the worst. He’ll smile to my face, shake my hand, ask how the season’s going—but I know the truth. He’s watching my tape like it’s a crime documentary, just waiting to prove I got lucky.”

I exhale, shaking my head with a grin. “And you? You just sit there, watching it all, like it’s the funniest thing in the world. Meanwhile, I’m stuck trying to impress a family that would probably rather see me in an orange jumpsuit than a Leafs jersey.”

I pause for a second, then smirk. “Though, let’s be real—I already won. Doesn’t matter what your dad thinks, or your mom, or the entire city of LA. Because at the end of the day? I’m the guy dating Madison Beer. And that’s the kind of lucky no one can argue with.”

I glance at you, eyes narrowing playfully. “But hey, at least you’re on my side… right?”
