I’m fine… Why do you ask?
I just wanted to ask. *shrugs*
I feel great. Better now that I’m with you.
[Shakes his head] Between you and your unc—Yes, let’s go. [Heads out of his office]
I learned from the best. *follows alongside him.* I haven’t had the chance to ask. How are you?
I’m fine… Why do you ask?
….. I had a feeling that wasn’t right. I’m tired. Let’s go to bed. Stay with me tonight.
Okay. I will. Let’s go before you butcher the English language any more.
[Shakes his head] Between you and your unc—Yes, let’s go. [Heads out of his office]
Don’t apologize? Come on. I’m feeling a little.. famished, anyway.
What does food have to do with anything?
….. I had a feeling that wasn’t right. I’m tired. Let’s go to bed. Stay with me tonight.
No. [Wraps his arms around her] I really am sorry.
*rests her head on his chest.* I’m sorry for being grumpy.
Don’t apologize? Come on. I’m feeling a little.. famished, anyway.
[Stands] I’m sorry. I know you’re going through a rough time and I should have been there for you. Let me hold you tonight.
Is it because I’m complaining again?
No. [Wraps his arms around her] I really am sorry.
I’m not a mind reader, Jen. How can I know what you want if you don’t complain?
After I complain. Not after I say I want something. I just really needed someone to hold me last night but you couldn’t even do that.
[Stands] I’m sorry. I know you’re going through a rough time and I should have been there for you. Let me hold you tonight.
Uh.. I guess?
How so? What makes you say that?
Oh look at the time, I’m going to go find a easy drunk girl and take her to bed, then in the morning make her waffles and assure her that she is appreciated and worth more than she thinks she is in order to bolster her self esteem and make myself look less sleeezy goodnight, sir.
[Glares at his computer screen when he thinks Jennifer isn’t looking types]
Bet you think you’re hilarious. Goodnight.
[Closes laptop]
There’s no need to apologize. [Sighs] I do want to try relationship things.
You want them after I complain. Why did we even try bothering with this relationship thing? Neither of us know how to do it correctly.
I’m not a mind reader, Jen. How can I know what you want if you don’t complain?
Yes, it is creepy. [Pushes his laptop away a little] How are you?
I’m okay. Are you busy? I just wanted to apologize for last night. I just thought you wanted to try relationship things but apparently that’s not one of them.
There’s no need to apologize. [Sighs] I do want to try relationship things.
