It was impressive and entertaining.

I’d watch again.

Matteo

Let me know before next time so I can make sure I pull out my best moves.

Sunny

Show-off.

Matteo

Only for you.

Maybe sometime you can come watch it in person.

Sunny

Would you want that?

Matteo

You in the stands while I’m on the ice? Fuck yeah.

Sunny

Lol. Maybe if this deadline doesn’t send me on a grippy sock vacation.

Matteo

I hope not. I need you for the rest of the season still.

Sunny

Well in that case, I’ll postpone my trip to the psych unit until after your season’s over.

Matteo

If we make it to the play-offs, that just extends it, you know?

Sunny

Are you looking for an extension on our deal, Ford?

Matteo

What if I am?

Sunny

You’re crazy.

It’s late. I’m going to try and get some sleep.

I’ve stopped myself from asking her when I get to see her again every time I’ve talked to her this past week. I think that moment outside of her door caused a shift between us. It caught me off guard just as much as I think it did her. I don’t want to fuck this up. I can’t afford to lose her, not now, not when everything is going right.
