Matt walked into the gym, wearing his white wife beater with a blue button-up shirt, his black jeans and suspenders and his white trainers. He pulled his hat down further and smiled slightly, shaking his head. He walked over to the changing rooms and removed all his clothing, putting on a pair of boxers and shorts and shoes, walking back out.
He walked over to the treadmill and set it up, immediately starting to run on it. He was determined to get his body back in shape, considering he was idle in his apartment for a long time. He kept running, feeling the adrenaline rush through him.

Duke strutted into the gym, his bag slung over his shoulder as he made his way towards the machines that a few people were already working out on. He set his bag down near one and pulled his shirt up over his head before putting it in his bag. He was already dressed to workout so he didn't have to change. His green eyes gazed around to see who all was working out when he caught sight of his best friend Matthew. The two had grown up together and learned to dance together, always getting in trouble together as well.
A sly smirk crossed Duke's face when he saw that Matt hadn't seen him come in. He made his way towards the treadmill he was on, coming up behind him. Duke found the spot where the machine was plugged into the wall and with a quick tug pulled the cord out of the wall, powering down the machine. A grin was on his face as he leaned his shoulder against the wall, crossing his arms over his chest as he waited for Matt to see him. |

Matt stared down at the machine as it stopped, he punched it hard. "Stupid piece of shit" he grumbled, getting off it. He looked around the room to see if anyone else's machines stopped running, until his eyes fell on his old friend Duke.
He laughed and tackled Duke to the ground, giving him a noogie. "What's up hoebag? Long time no speak!" he grinned, throwing in some playful punches. "Gah, last time I saw you was the day after our last crew battle, what's been happening?" he asked, smiling wide. Today was definitely going to be a good day for Matthew.

Duke grinned when Matt saw him and wrestled with him for a minute before the two broke apart. He hadn't seen Matt in awhile and it was good to see him again. Part of the reason he had come to LA was to meet up with him again.
"Don't start somethin' ya can't finish there bro, ya know I can kick your ass easy." he replied, crossing his arms over his chest as he looked Matt up and down. It had been about three or four years since they had seen each other.
"I was in the army for a couple years and now I'm out and looking for work. Thought I'd come up here and make sure you weren't gettin' into trouble without me." he replied, giving Matthew a teasing smack on the shoulder before crossing his arms once more. |

Matt raised his eyebrow as Duke said he could beat his ass easy. He laughed hard. "Is that a challenge, my friend?" he asked, pushing Duke slightly. He missed doing this with him, back in Detroit. "Me? Trouble? Psfhh, I doubt that very much, Duke" he stated, "What type of man do you take me for?" he joked, smirking and crossing his arms over his chest. He looked around the room, licking his lips. Only now he was noticing the change, and only now, he realized how much he missed Detroit. He wasn't going to go back though, he found someone to hold onto here.

Duke laughed when Matt gave him a playful push, questioning his challenge. He remembered when they were younger and would always wrestle and fight it out and Duke would always win because he was a year older and was a little bigger than Matt. The same was still true today.
"Don't forget how many times I schooled your ass back in Detroit. A new place doesn't better your odds." he replied, wrapping his arm around Matt's neck and pull his head down to his own waist as he held him there for a minute before letting him go and giving him a playful shove as well.
"So how's LA treatin' ya? Got any girls yet?" he asked him, giving him a suggestive wink as a smile crossed his face. |

Matt laughed. He loved it when they would wrestle, he always felt as if Duke was his brother,seeing as he was an only child. It's how Duke and he got on, both only having a father to rely on. He guessed that was the 8 mile for you. Matt nodded, "There's this girl called Roxi, she's like.. way out of my league but she still bothers with me" he replied, turning to Duke. "How about you? Still a virgin?" he laughed, taking the mick out of Duke, although he was one to speak.

Duke nodded a bit as if he was a proud parent or something before crossing his arms over his chest when Matt asked him a question. He laughed at the question before unfolding his arms and looking at his best friend for a moment before answering.
"I haven't been a virgin since I was sixteen! And yeah I have to say LA is treatin' me pretty well too." he replied, giving Matt a wink as he remembered his night with Alicia. |

Matt laughed and nodded. "Yeah, I remember her. Bouncing Betty we used to call her" he laughed, shaking his head slightly. "I still can't believe you boned that" he grinned, remembering the night.
He turned around and plugged the treadmill back in, turning back to face Duke. "So, who's the lucky lady?" he pondered, wanting to know the juicy gossip. Half the time when he was with Duke he thought he was a girl, they'd always share gossip and run into lingerie shops, pretending to browse for underwear for the other. He smiled remembering back to when they were kicked out of Michigan's biggest mall for being a bunch of doofus's.

"You're just jealous she wouldn't give you the time of day!" he retorted, smacking him in the arm before leaning his back against the wall so he could face Matt. His arms crossed over his chest once more as Matt asked him who the girl was that he was messing around with.
"Alicia. Not sure if it's gonna go anywhere but she is pretty damn sexy." he answered, raising his eyebrows suggestively. Him and Matt were always causing trouble together and normally got along all the time. The only bad thing was that they both had pretty similar taste in girls. So there were a few girls they had both messed with and they had fought it out over it but then things would go back to normal.
"Roxi huh? Maybe I should check her out. If she's not in your league then that means she's definitely in mine." he teased Matt, giving him another playful wink. |

Matt laughed and shoved him slightly, shaking his head. There was no chance they were going to fight over a girl after just seeing each other again. Matt poked Duke's hair, back in the old days neither of them had hair to style, now they both looked like a bunch of grease monkeys.
"I don't think so man, I'm getting deep feelings for this girl." Matt admitted, nodding slightly. "You could use some more gel though, your 'hawk is tipping dude.." he stated smiling.

Duke raised his hands up as if in surrender as Matt said he was getting deep feelings for Roxi. Duke wasn't gonna get in the way of that, he was just kidding after all. He wasn't one to try and break up his best friend and the girl of his dreams. Though he was kind of curious to see the girl that had Matt so fixed.
"No way man, Axe is the only way to go. Gonna get me some hair action." he replied, backing up when Matt tried to touch his hair. Duke smiled a bit as he quoted the Axe commercial, remembering when the guy with gelled hair jumped into the ocean and came out with a ton of fish stuck to his spiked hair. |
