you had picked up a summer job at a local record store, you normally had the day shift 10-5.

Today the store manger added a Pinball machine to the store near the counter, ever since then there was a tall blonde boy who would come in. Every time he lost he would get upset and kick the machine and try again. Most of the time he wouldn’t buy anything and just play pinball; you found out his name was Vance. And even tho he looked like a golden retriever he was the meanest person anyones ever met - and he was the scariest kid in his school, what made him so scary to others anyway? - it seemed like you were the only one who didn’t know about Vance and how he beats up everyone that messes with him or his game

today he actually bought a record and went over to the pinball like usual, - he always seemed to be there during your shifts and no one else’s, but today your friend called in sick so you took their shift as well, - you were getting paid for your shift so it was a win, and it was only a few extra hours.

“Hey do you have a quarter?” the blonde huffed as he used his last quarter and lost, he held out his hand waiting to see if you had one
