⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀wilder stared at him with a baffled yet slightly offended look on his face . " i am hurt that you would even think that i would lie about getting attacked by a polar bear . " his cast pressed to his chest as he let out an overdramatic scoff . " and it is not an embarrassing story it is one of courage and bravery . that polar bear could and come terrorized everyone in the world if it wasn't for me fighting it off . " he shrugged , leaning back in his chair . " falling off of a horse in an attempt to impress a girl then and then have her yell at you nonstop is embarrassing ... fighting off a massive polar bear isn't . "

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀wilder stared at her with a blank expression on his face , eyes blinking with barely any thought behind them . he did not think this far a head at all . " um ..... " he paused , his gaze drifting upwards in hopes an answer would pop up out of thin air . " the woods ... y'know outside with the trees and stuff . " he nodded seeming completely satisfied with his answer , but his eyebrows were raised in confusion as a new one was posed . " who would want to claim being related to a dog ?? that's just weird . " a quiet laugh escaped his lips before his attention drifted towards the newly signed cast . a pearly white grin spread across his face . " so you're telling me i can officially say a smoking hot cheerleader signed my cast after my near death hor- bear attack ?? " he causally shrugged his shoulders . " yeah that ' s a totally better story . the bear one is still top tier , but this is like bonus content . collector ' s edition kind of stuff . wanna kiss it for some extra points ?? or me ?? either way is totally fine with me . "

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀'wilder ' s brows knitted together in confusion as he stared at her attempting to process the sentence . " whoa , hold on my drama ?? " he asked , a over dramatic scoff escaping his lips . " rude . i didn't even do anything . " despite that , a lazily grin could be seen forming his lips as he tips back in his chair. " you say that like i'm not super easy to take care of . i'll have you know for at the low low price of some fries and a single compliment i can behave for at least twenty minutes . if that aint easy i don't know what is . " he paused for a second . like he was seriously thinking about it before quickly adding . " actually now it's two . infatuation and what not . "

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀amari did not take too kindly to being called out so abruptly like that . here she was minding her on business , simply glancing at the list of people who were far too eager to embarrass themselves on stage when all of a sudden she was getting roped into something she clearly had no plans on getting into . " excuse me ?? " she asked , honestly wanting to make sure that she heard the other right . " do i look like someone who would ever participate in something as foolish as karaoke ?? "

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀" oh come onnnnnnn dude . " wilder wrapped his arm around the stranger ' s shoulder , a pout plastered onto his face . " it could be so much fun ! don't tell me you're a chicken . "
