It was a chill fall day, Katie Boyd was practicing at the local golf course, Pontiac Country Club(PCC). She was attempting to get sneak out on the course for a quick 9. Her plan was going smoothly when all of a sudden the Starter stopped her. Fearing for the worst she stopped in her tracks. It was then the Starter informed her that there was another golfer trying to slither out for a practice sesh. His name...Joe Baker...the REAL JOE BAKER. As a result, the golf course demanded that the two single golfers group up to ensure the course did not become backed up. Reluctantly, Katie complied. Joyfully, Joe strutted up to the tips of the tee box and spanked one down the middle. Impressive? Maybe to some, but Katie had other things on her mind...like what was for dinner or what she was going to wear to prom or literally anything else. Katie had seen this kid lurking around PCC before. Nothing really stood out. He was underwhelming to say the least. However, on Joe's end, it was a far different story. As fate would have it, he had been scoping out this little cutie for weeks, if not months now. I mean it's not every day that some hot, talented, babe shows up to the golf course. Joe knew he had to act, but before he could make a move, the Golf Gods intervened. Probably for the best. Those first 9 holes were definitely interesting. Not a word was spoken between the two. However, before they parted ways, they agreed that if they found themselves in this situation tomorrow, that they could just play together again. And they did see each other the next day, and the day after that...and the day after that... Despite playing together every day for weeks, few words were spoken between the two. Then one fateful day, Katie couldn't take it! Typically reserved around new people, Katie had thrown caution to the wind and attempted to strike up a conversation. What was discussed we may never know, as Katie entered a somewhat blackout state. The words just expelled from her mouth with such speed and for so long, she doesn't even know if she even golfed that day. By the end of the round, Katie had followed Joe to his car, where he was trying to escape her clutches to go to work. He would fail as she kept talking about how she can't stop talking...a vicious cycle that seemed to never end. Eventually, he managed to slip away, leaving Katie to reflect on her actions. Certain she spooked the poor boy, Katie assumed the two would not be changing their association from golf-acquaintances to golf-friends any time soon. However, the next time the two found themselves at the course, Joe still agreed to play 9. Given this new opportunity, Katie sought out a different approach to make a new friend. Competition. While golf is already technically a competition, it is not super fun when you play it ever-single-day. So Katie proposed each hole having different rules once you reached the green. For instance, hole 2 you had to putt with the others club, hole 5 you had to putt one-handed, hole 8 you had to putt through your legs. You get the picture. While Joe may have had the advantage in the traditional game, in this 'trick shot' version, Katie proved superior. After completely sweeping the floor with him, she humbly claimed her victory. A respectful handshake at the end of the round was earned. However, while soaking up her win, she made the mistake to comment on the size of her opponents hands while they were clasped together. She noticed their hands were roughly the same size and she felt the need to show him. When suddenly while palm-to-palm comparing digits, Joe wove his fingers into Katie's. He then pulled her in close and planted on one her. This took Katie completely by surprise. I mean, she didn't even think he liked her in a friends kind of way. However, as they stood there in each other's embrace, she decided what's the harm. And now here we are...
