Darby: …O negative?

Gabe: Cute. I mean the type of guy you usually date.

Darby: This is an impossible question.

Gabe: ???

Darby: I don’t date much, okay? But I guess smart guys. Professionals. Lots of wine bars and tickets to the symphony until they get too busy to call me back.

Gabe: Still better than a dentist.

Darby: Say it again for the people in the back.

FIFTEEN DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE

Darby: We get dressed up for Christmas Eve dinner. Is that okay?

Gabe: Like tuxedos?

Darby: Like dresses and button-down shirts with ties. Absolutely no jeans.

Gabe: Okay, I’ll pack my fanciest party dress.

TWELVE DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE

Gabe: How do you feel about mustaches?

Darby: I hate them.

Gabe: Cool. I have a week and a half to grow one and offer your mother mustache rides every time we’re alone.

Darby: NO

Gabe: No mustache rides. Got it.

Darby: NOTHING WITH MY MOTHER.

Gabe: Your mother? Here I was thinking she was your older sister.

Darby: Our arrangement is over.

NINE DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE

Darby: Sorry I missed your call. Hit you back tomorrow?

Gabe: Sure.

Gabe: Wait, are you out tonight? Hot date? ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME, YOUR TERRIBLE BOYFRIEND?

Darby: Yes, I’m cheating on you with three other women. We’re drinking wine and wrapping Christmas gifts tonight.

Gabe: And having sexy pillow fights, right?

Gabe: Tell me there are pillow fights, Darbs. I need this fantasy if you’re going to ignore my calls.

Gabe: Mmmm, fluffy pillows.

Darby: You are seriously disturbed.
