After a while the water got to the point that it was freezing, and he sighed, shivering as he stood up. He should probably get out now.. He shut off the water, shakily stepping out of the shower and grabbing a towel. He jumped as he heard knocking from the door. "Quackity, Are you okay? You've been in there for a while.." He heard Karls voice mention. Karls voice made him uneasy, but he got himself to reply after a minute.
"I-I'm fine, I just got distracted." did Karl not hear him yell? he was sure that was at least 5 minutes ago.. He shrugged, it was better that he didn't hear it. "..Alright, well, I told Sapnap about our plans to go bowling so.. We'll be ready to go when you are." He heard footsteps fading away from he door and sighed. It made him so anxious to hear Karls voice, well it was understandable.. at least he thinks.
He dried off his hair, still slightly shaking from how cold the shower was. He gently dried off his wings, struggling to do so. He huffed, this was annoying. He quickly dried the rest of the way off, putting on the clothes he'd picked out and walking to the door cautiously. He listened for a second before placing his hand on the handle and turning it.
As he opened the door he could see Karl and Sapnap talking on the couch. He took a deep breath, hesitantly walking over to them. "Oh, Hi Q! that was quick, well, not really." Sapnap chuckled, standing up and stretching, Karl following shortly. "You ready to go?"
Quackity hesitated for a minute, his eyes glancing over at Karl a few times. "..Yeah." Sapnap smiled, grabbing his hand and walking toward the door. They got into the Car, Karl in the back while Quackity sat in the passenger seat, Sapnap driving. "Now, to the bowling alley!!" Sapnap shouted, a huge grin on his face.
The car pulled into the parking lot. It was around 6:30 right now, and there were surprisingly less cars than they thought there'd be. "Yo I haven't been to one of these in a while, I can't wait! This is gonna be fun, right?" Sapnap smiled at them, and Quackity couldn't help but smile back, nodding quietly. "Yup" Karl replied, and they made their way out of the car, walking toward the building.
They walked inside and there weren't many people, most of them in groups of 5 or playing solo. There were two men playing together, though, which was nice to see. They walked up to the stand, and Quackity blinked. He recognized the worker, its the same person who worked at the ice-cream shop.
"Hey, are you the same person who worked at the ice-cream shop?" he mumbled, not even meaning to speak up at first. "Oh hey, you're that nosy couple." The worker teased, a smirk growing on their face. "That your friend?" they pointed to Karl, and Karl waved awkwardly, he'd interacted with them too, but was really just there at the time to see Quackity and Sapnap. "Yeah, how much to play?" Sapnap pulled out his wallet, looking through it hastily.
They went through the process of paying, and they ended up getting assigned the lane next to the two men they noticed earlier. Quackity noticed the one with the red.. mask? on got another miss, seemingly distressed about it. Before they walked off to the lane, Quackity decided to ask the workers name. "HEy!- uh, what's your name?" he asked, feeling awkward as he felt Karl and Sapnap staring at him. The worker rolled their eyes, before answering.
"My name's Arrow, jeez, you really are a nosy couple." Quackity smiled apologetically before turning and running as Karl and Sapnap turned to continue walking. "Sorry.." Quackity mumbled, his face flushing red as he regained his spot in the middle of Karl and Sapnap. Sapnap wrapped an arm around him, grinning as they made their way to the lane they were assigned. "You were just curious, it's fine babe~" Quackitys face flushed a deeper red. Before, Sapnap called him 'hon', not 'babe'.
Quackity couldn't help but glance over at the two men as they stopped at their lane, and his gaze got stuck on the two. The red masked one was groaning, and Quackity looked up to see the green hybrid of some sorts had gotten a strike. The green hybrid was laughing at the red masked one, and the red mask one was pouting, or, so it seemed. He didn't know how he could tell.
"Q!" Sapnap yelled, snapping Quackity back to reality. "Y-Yeah?" "You're up first, you can do this!" He smiled, giving a double thumbs up as Quackity hesitantly approached the pinsetter, a bowling ball sitting there waiting for him to use. He picked it up and approached the lane, standing in front of it hesitantly. He glanced back at Sapnap and Karl who were sitting on chairs, before taking his turn.

The game was going well and before they knew it they were already done. Sapnap sighed, smiling at them and ushering them over to take a look at the scores. They went over, sitting next to Sapnap as the scores loaded on the screen in front of them. Sapnaps total score was 90, Quackitys was 60, and Karls was 130. Karl giggled. "I won!" "Dude that's so unfair, you totally play more than we do." Sapnap huffed, crossing his arms and pouting.
Quackity was a bit sad that he got the lowest score, but he found his eyes wandering over to the lane next to them, the two men weren't playing anymore, they seemed to be just talking. The man with the red mask glanced over at them, and he blinked, making brief eye contact before the man looked back at the green hybrid. He couldn't tell what they were saying, but he could make out that the hybrid said "yes" to something.
"Aw, Q.. you got the lowest score, it's okay, you've never played before." Quackity looked over, his face getting cupped by one of Sapnaps hands. "It's fine... it doesn't bother me." Quackity mumbled, avoiding looking at Sapnap. "That's good, but I really want to kiss you right now. Do I have permission my good sir?" Quackity flushed, though had to keep back a laugh. "..Yes." Sapnap leaned in, connecting lips with him softly. Quackity could see the two men approaching out of the corner of his eye, though he didn't really pay attention to it.
He pulled away, smiling softly, his face still a light shade of red. "God I love you..." Sapnap murmured, seemingly holding himself back from trapping him in a tight hug. "Ummm.. Helloooo? I'm still here..." Karl huffed, crossing his arms. "Oh, my bad, the poor poor Karl has been forgotten." Sapnap joked, his tone accidentally having a passive aggressive tone to it. "..Sorry." Karl mumbled, looking at the floor. "..Wait, I didn't mean it like that-"
"Hello!" A voice interrupted, causing Quackitys eyes to dart over. The two men were standing there, one waving very noticeably, which was probably the one who yelled hello. "We wanted to come over and say hi beca-" "-Ponkie here wanted to say hi to you guys because you looked cool." The green hybrid interrupted, smiling softly. "Sam! You said they looked cool too!" Quackity couldn't help but notice one of the-.. Ponk, s arms were missing.
He couldn't help but look at it, his eyes focused on the bandage around it, though it didn't seem new. "Earth to Quackity?? They're asking you something babe." Sapnap murmured, waving his hand infront of him. "Oh, uh, yes?" "Well, I'll get to that in a minute, you were looking at my arm right?" Ponk showed off his arm, and Sam pushed his nub down gently, giving a disapproving look to him. Ponk huffed, rolling his eyes. "Isn't it cool? I think it's pretty cool, a bit inconvenient though.. I like your scar! what happened to your face?" Ponk pointed out the scar running from his eye to his bottom lip, causing Quackitys eyes to widen.
"Um..." "Ponkie no, that could be really personal.." Sam murmured, cupping Ponks cheek and forcing him to look at him. "But Sam! So is mine! and I'm showing it off just fine!" Ponk gestured to his arm, causing Sam to once again cover his attempts of showing it off. "And you know I'm not comfortable with you doing that, and you know why. Just.. Please Ponk.. drop it.."
Ponk huffed in defeat, nodding sadly. Quackity looked at the ground, trying to take deep breaths. Don't think about it. Don't think about it. Don't think about it. He clutched at his arms tightly, trying not to bother anyone while preventing himself from.. remembering. "I'm really sorry for bringing it up.. what's your name? Quackity, right?" Ponk spoke up, causing him to cautiously look up at him. "Um.. yes." he managed to get out, his voice wobbling a bit.
"I'm Ponk, though you could probably already tell, and this is Sam! We wanted to know if you'd want to be friends, what's your phone number, stuff like that!" Quackity smiled tightly, glancing at Sapnap and Karl. "This.. um.. this is Sapnap and Karl." he gestured to them weakly, unable to stop his hands from shaking. Sam seemed to notice, Ponk seeming to not. "Would you like to come with me for a moment?" Sam spoke up, interrupting whatever Ponk was about to say.
"...Me?" Quackity gestured to himself, hesitantly staring into the eyes of Sam.. he was pretty intimidating. Sapnap raised an eyebrow, looking at Quackity after a moment of staring at Sam, Karl following in pursuit. "Yeah, you seem like you need to talk about something." Quackity gulped, he kinda wanted to turn down the offer, but if he was being honest, it was kinda appealing.. to get away from this large of a group. Even if it was pretty small, it was big from his perspective.
Especially right now.
"..Alright..." he muttered, sweating slightly as he stood up, his arm getting grabbed by Sam as he got pulled to the mens washroom.
