While waiting in line for udon, Eric got an unsolicited FaceTime from a friend asking if he was single. He said yes. She told him he should date her roommate and then hung up. So Eric organised a night at an arcade bar with a group of friends. He hadn’t been told the roommate’s name, or if she would even join that night. He figured if she didn’t show or there was no chemistry, at least he could play Metal Slug. Becky’s roommate convinced her to tag along that night. Zero mention of Eric or a boy or a set up. She met one person, two persons, five people - and then she met Eric. He called her by the wrong name. Three times. He asked her if she wanted a drink. She said no. But for some reason he continued trying - even though his small talk was distracting her from Galaga. No surprise - she left before he could get her number. A month later they went on a date. Two weeks after they’d been on five. He’s been distracting her ever since.
