Trust me, you'll have fun
Maria's efforts to get Jon to relax and have fun continued. It was Thursday and it was their night out and Maria had come up with something new for them to do. Karaoke. She'd bet a million dollars that he had never done karaoke in his life, or even been to a place where they had karaoke. It was time to introduce the Boyscout to karaoke.

She waited outside for him to show up.

	She would win a million dollars with that - he's heard of it, but definitely never tried it. Still, its Maria, and she has this way of getting him to try things and expand his horizons - even if he's not always sure he wants his horizons heading in some directions. He shows up, go figure, right on time. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Maria hooked an arm around his. "Tonight we're exposing you to karaoke. It's corny and sometimes cheesy, but it can be fun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If it was anyone else I'd be really suspicious of them, but since it's you and you're the world's biggest Boy Scout, I'm not worried." Maria grinned at him. "Shall we?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2012-07-31 12:21 am UTC (link)
	He offers an arm. "Don't worry - nothing to be concerned about. And yeah, just give me directions and hang on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria had to chuckle. He was just too sweet and a bit clueless at times. "We're already here. We just have to walk in the door." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's an all ages club," she pointed out. She wasn't trying to corrupt him. At least tonight. She glanced at him and then reached for the door before he did. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She reaches first - he cheats with super speed. "Ladies first." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria gave him A Look. "I hate it when you do that. I can open a door once in awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's the only way I manage to beat you," she said. "You cheat with that super speed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"/You/ cheat? Maybe there's some cracks in that boyscout armor after all." Maria grinned. "Come to the darkside. We have cookies." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria kissed his cheek. "That's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2012-08-03 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	He chuckles and gives her a one armed hug as she leans in to kiss him. "I know, I know. You take pride in your bad-girlness. And no, that doesn't mean you get a spanking." he teases. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2012-08-03 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	"I do." Maria frowned. "Darn. One of these days I will get a spanking from you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not sure that's what he..." he's dragged along, really not arguing the point. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
