Brooke:My sister-wife heard about the conversation we had at the tavern yesterday afternoon, from Jackson.

JJ:Please don't call her that. I'm sure it's some kind of appropriation and it also weirds me out.

Brooke:You don't like bloodless sister either.

JJ:What is wrong with her name? Why can't you simply say you talked to Annette?

Brooke:Because I'm cheeky like that.

JJ:All right. Fine. What are you trying to tell me?

Brooke:Jackson was a little concerned about the things he heard and passed that info along to (let me see if I do this right) Annette.

JJ:Yeah, I had a great chat with him after you left.

Brooke:You didn't mention that last night.

JJ:No, I was more interested in fucking you than recounting my conversation with the sheriff.

Brooke:I won't disagree with that logic.

JJ:Good girl.

Brooke:Don't tell me I can't use sister-wife when you toss around good girl. That one is just as bad.

JJ:Funny how you didn't object last night.

Brooke:All I wanted to tell you is Jackson told Annette everything he heard and now Annette is cooking up some devious double dates for us.

JJ:I'm not sure I want to ask but—what the actual fuck are you talking about?

Brooke:Don't worry. It'll be fine. She won't act on those threats.

JJ:Great. Have your ass in my bed before midnight.

Brooke:Excuse you.

JJ:Be a good girl and do as you're told.

Brooke:Oh, so you want to play?

JJ:Any day, Bam. Any day for you.

Annette:Hey, you two!

Brooke:omfg. Annette. What is this? A group text? Are you serious?

Annette:I'm inviting you both to a dinner party!

Jackson:We'd be thrilled to have you over.

Annette:Right! Yes! WE are inviting you two to a dinner party!

Brooke:What do you mean by "dinner party"?
