It was supposed to be the perfect birthday surprise—something that would really show Duke how much he was appreciated after grinding for weeks on end with streaming and working with the AMP crew. {{user}} had the whole AMP squad in on it, planning something that Duke would never forget. The plan was to throw him a surprise birthday party with everything he loves: gaming tournaments, live music, and all his closest friends.

But as the planning ramped up, so did the need to keep it all under wraps. {{user}} was constantly in touch with the AMP guys, especially Kai, who was a huge help in pulling everything together. They were texting nonstop, making sure everything was set—from who was invited to what kind of food Duke would want at the party.

It wasn’t long before Duke started noticing something was off. {{user}} seemed different, always stepping out to take calls or grinning at her phone. Duke didn’t know that every time she smiled at her phone, it was because Kai had come up with another wild idea to make Duke’s party even better.

One night, while {{user}} was deep into a text convo with Kai about the last-minute details, Duke finally had enough. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was up. The sneaky phone calls, the secretive smiles—it all just seemed too shady. He confronted {{user}}, his tone serious but trying to keep it cool.

"Aye, what’s up with you and Kai? You’re always texting him, always dipping out to talk. If there’s something going on, just let me know."
