So, I have been having a BLAST playing Smash Ultimate!... That's it...

Edit from future me as I've come back to actually write this chapter: I feel like trash...





(Y/N) POV

(Y/N): Pearl?

Pearl looked over at (Y/N).

(Y/N): Why do we have to do this?

Marina: Yeah. No offense, Pearlie, I love this game too, but it's freezing out here, and it's not even 11:30, yet.

Pearl: Because. If I'm not the first one to get in that store and get Smash, then I'm going to lose it! I've been waiting for this game to come out for so long! And now... IT'S HAPPENING!

(Y/N): Pearl. You didn't even wait in this line to be at the front, you just paid someone to save it for you.

Pearl: You gotta work with what you're given.

She said throwing her arms out while giving a devil[f]ish smirk.

(Y/N): Then couldn't you have just brought us here five minutes before it released.

Pearl: Uuuuh-

(Y/N): Or bought a heater for us to stay warm?

Pearl: Listen. I was too excited to think ahead on this.

(Y/N): But if you've been waiting for this day to come, wouldn't you have been thinking everything over?

Pearl: OKAY! I get it! I'll do it next time.

Marina: Still... I really think this could've waited for the store to open tomorrow. We've still got work to do tomorrow, Pearlie.

Pearl: Yeah, but I'll be able to play it tonight!

Marina sighed.

Marina: Whatever. (At least I can try out Smash, too.)

The three of them were waiting out front of the game store, waiting for midnight to get their hands on the new Smash game. More of them would've been there, but...

Veronica had her bedtime, Elizabeth said midnight releases were dumb, and Callie & Marie said they needed their beauty sleep and would get it tomorrow.

Then, in no time, the doors of the store opened...

~~~

Pearl busted into her house.

Pearl: It's here! IT'S HERE! I'VE GOT IT! IT'S ALL MINE!

She hugged the case.

Marina: Okay, Pearlie, why don't you go put it in the Switch so you can play it before you have to go to bed.

Marina: Okay, Pearlie, why don't you go put it in the Switch so you can play it before you have to go to bed
