He has been anyway. You? You’ve never known what’s good for you chasing after the wrong Sinclair.
Natalie
Yeah, so about that Sinclair. I think he’s been lying to me about how we met.
Tessa
He lies to everyone, so that’d make sense. I never got how you two were friends.
Natalie
And you’re telling me now?
Tessa
Not my business.
Natalie
That’s never stopped you in the past.
Tessa
I thought maybe he was different with you. Apparently not.
Natalie
Do you think Cole lies too?
Tessa
From what I know of him, and the way Moose talks about him, no. He’s got that rigid Captain America vibe.
Like he’s premed?
Who the hell is premed when they could go pro?
Natalie
Wait that’s real? I thought he was lying to my parents. Fuck me, Tessa.
Tessa
I know, it’s impossibly hot of him. Stop overthinking this, Natalie. Go for it.
Natalie
I need to ask him some questions first…but after…yeah, I think I might.
Tessa
NO QUESTIONS JUST BONE
Natalie
We are not the same.
I narrowly miss walking into a wall as I stall walking from the bathroom back to my bedroom. Tessa was zero help, which really shouldn’t be a surprise, but I was/am desperate. Cole is waiting for me in my room and I know I need to have a conversation with him or the next two weeks are going to be unbearable, but I don’t want to.
