She noticed him staring at her, looking confused but she continued looking at the game ahead. She really didn't want him to know how embarrassed she really was. She nodded when he said that past was the past. "How true." She turned to give him a smile but..was he just smirking? She pushed him playfully and asked, "What are you smirking at?"

"Great." Alex stood back and watched him throw one of the rings. She noticed that ring just bounced off the bottle. She laughed and nodded in approval. "Hey. For someone who has never even played the game before, you're doing great."

She grimaced but accepted the ring that Damon held out for her. Uh. She couldn't help but think that this was going to be a complete disaster. She pulled her arm back and carefully threw the ring towards the bottles. She girnned when the ring hit one of the bottles and landed on a table nearby. "See? I told you." Ah, well. Even though she was terrible, the girl was still enjoying herself.
Damon fell sideways slightly at Alex's playful push, but he didn't really mind. He started laughing before giving her a gentle little push back. "Oh, nothing in particular," he said, with a mock dreamy voice. Honestly Damon hadn't had this much fun in a while.

Damon took a little bow as Alex complimented him on his throwing. "Why thank you. I actually did much better than I had been expecting." Damon took a step sideways so that Alex would have enough room to throw, watching as she winded back and gently tossed the ring. Damon thought she had for a second there, a little smile of amusement playing across his face as the ring hit the bottle and bounced off the same way his did.

"Well it's good to know we're both in the same boat," Damon said with a little laugh. "Here...you throw the last ring. Yours came much closer to landing on the bottle than mine did."
