Antonio: "So, this guy behind us in line, he's making a big show because we're costing him a precious five minutes of his life 'cause my date here is trying to decide between rocky road and cookies and cream" he hums, sitting at a table in front of Ryan, Arya, Dawson and Theo "I'm getting ready to confront the guy but before I can...this one says. Tell 'em what you said."

Brett: "I-I told him, "there are 31 flavors, and now I'm gonna sample every one." she hums, the pair laughing as the four awkwardly join in, exchanging a look

Arya: "Sounds like a fun stomach ache waiting to happen." she hums, taking a sip of her drink, noticing the way Theo and Luke continuously glance at one another

Dawson: "Oh, hey, did you fill in Brett on next weekend's festivities?"

Brett: "Uh, no. No." she hums, giving Antonio a confused look

Ryan: "It's their parents' anniversary party. I'm already roped in. Run while you still can, Sylvie."

Dawson: "Oh, shut up. You're gonna love it. My parents do it every ten years, and the whole family comes. It's great."

Antonio: "I mean, you know, if you got nothing else to do on a Saturday..."

Brett: "I'm gonna have to check my calendar."

Antonio: "You are so cute." he chuckles, leaning over to press small kisses to her lips, making an awkward silence come over the group

Theo: "I'm gonna get a refill."

Ryan: "Me too."

Arya: "Yes, please." she hums, raising her hand as she quickly downs her drink, following the pair to the bar

Theo: "They always like that?"

Ryan: "That is a new development." she hums

Arya: "I'm all for people having sexual tension around me but I draw the line at the whole cuddly thing" she declares, shivering in slight disgust "Speaking of sexual tension..." she trails off, giving Theo a pointed look as he glances at Luke once more, looking back towards the pair which makes his eyes widen, awkwardly clearing his throat "You gonna keep staring at him all night or are you gonna make a move?"

Theo: "Move? What-what move? Why would I make a move?"

Arya: "You're practically undressing him with your eyes."

Ryan: "Leave him alone." she hums, watching a look come over Theo's face

Arya: "What? I don't blame you. Maxwell is hot. He swung my way, I'd definitely jump."

Theo: "He...he's gay?"

Arya: "You can't tell by the way he's undressing you with his eyes." she chuckles, making a small smile come over Theo's face as he looks towards Luke once more

Brett: "Uh, no, seriously. Um, what-what is this party?"

Dawson: "It's what I said. A celebration of life and love and happiness."

Brett: "Your whole family gawking at me."

Dawson: "Oh, they're harmless."

Ryan: "No, they're not." she mouths, shaking her head as a nervous look comes over Brett's face

Standing in the locker room, Arya leans against the bench as she finishes tying her shoes. Glancing up her brows furrow in concern when seeing bruises on James' back, watching as he slowly places a shirt on with a pained look on his face
