"That's the spirit! You never know until you try, you know? You might like them." Even if she seemed a little reluctant at first, he was glad she was coming around to the idea. Ezra wouldn't force her into playing any of them if she really didn't want to, of course, but he was certain she'd be good at them if she did give it a go. She had always struck him as plenty capable and fun to be around. Plus, it would be a lot more fun to play the games with a friend.

"Yeah, but hearing someone else say it is a little different than looking at yourself in the mirror." A lot different actually. "So thanks," he added with another grin. Compliments like that were always nice.

Ezra selected another couple chips as he glanced around. If he had a longer time to look at his surroundings, he might have caught a glimpse of the same scene she had spotted, and then he might have experienced a similar heart-sinking feeling as well. But her next words captured his attention, instantly freezing him in place, the hand with the chips halfway to his mouth.

Date? She wanted to go on a date? With him? Him, Ezra Hensley?

He'd never been on a date before, neither asked nor having been asked. Not that he hadn't thought about it before either though. Because he had. But his thoughts on those matters were so...so confusing, and besides the person he'd thought about maybe asking was-

Wait, did this mean...did Everleigh...like....????

A multitude of questions raced through his mind in milliseconds. Words tumbled out of his mouth before he even processed them. "Oh, yeah, I could- I- Er...you wanna go on a date?"

Because as much of an independent woman as she was, not having to wander around by her lonesome all afternoon was looking kind of nice. She offered Ez a smile in response to his question, nodding eagerly. "Well, yeah. You've seen yourself in the mirror. Come on, you're plenty athletic."** She appreciated that about him, did he know? What she didn't appreciate was the way her heart seemed to plummet into her stomach when she'd been oh so casually glancing around, taking in the sights with a content smile on her face, and spotted the two familiar faces dancing off in the distance. It wasn't even like she cared or anything. Like, whatever, maybe they were on a date. It was fine. People dated all the time. She dated. A lot. Yeah, it was fine. ...It didn't really feel fine, though. Everleigh scooted a bit so her back was to the unpleasant scene ~~(which was actually adorable, which made the whole thing worse)~~ and blurted out, "So you should take me on a date sometime." ...Because yeah, that was obviously the best way to make her feel better.
