Darcy Lewis x Nerd!Reader

You tilted your head and looked up at Darcy through the corner of your eyes, pouting slightly. Tapping your cards on the table, you tried for innocence, managing to get her to focus on the way you bit your lower lips rather than her cards. "Three cards." You asked for sweetness lacing your tone. Jane dealt you three, having folded her cards already, she turned to Darcy. "One card." Jane nodded, you furrowed your brow. "What are you turning to fill in? Straight or flush?" You asked.

Darcy shrugged her shoulders, "There are odds which prove that the odds to filling an opened straight is one to five against, while a flush is more like four point five to one against." You laughed lightly, "I always forget you're nerdly like me." She grinned. "So, which is it?"

"Am I nerdy or am I drawing to, what a straight?" You shrugged too, "Either." Darcy grinned, you both pushed the remaining chips calling all in. Darcy smiled, "Well honey, I was drawing to a full house. Eights over sixes." You sighed, "I always forget that you always win." Darcy grinned widely. "Yep." You looked over at her, "Well, you're doomed, like oh my god you are doomed. Like Emily Brontë doomed, like Shakespeare doomed, like red shirted ensign in star trek doomed..." You placed your hand down on the table face up. "Not so fast, though sugar, I too have a boat. Jacks over threes." Darcy stuttered as Jane whooped. "You drew those cards to a full out. That's like ninety -seven to one odds." You dragged the small wrapped sweets to you before rising and leaving the table in search of a drink.

"I never lose." Darcy pouted behind you as she began checking all the cards on the table. Jane who was shaking with laughter, placed her head on the table allowing the laughter to spill past her lips.

You arrived back at the table, unwrapping a fruity sweet and popping it in your mouth sucking on the hard boiled sweet. You offered one to Jane who took it with giggling laughter, you offered another to Darcy who took it sulkily. "Another round?" You asked cheekily, a smug grin splitting your face. Darcy scowled while Jane burst into another fit of giggles, while unwrapping her sweet, folding in half with her head on the table.
