Tristan
Well, I think it was the biggest pile of horse crap I’ve ever witnessed. I’m going to bill you for the five minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
Me
Only because you wish you were as romantic as me.
Mason
Do we think Drew’s seen the video?
Me
I don’t know. I posted it an hour ago, and I haven’t heard anything as of yet. My best guess is, she’s still in the meeting with Colton. I sent him the video last night, hoping he would see it before making any rash decisions about her job.
Silas
And has he seen it?
Me
Yeah, but he didn’t reply to me.
Mason
I’m so anxious that I’m sweating.
Tristan
Moving on to more important topics. Which shampoo should I use tonight? Bourbon or fresh pine?
Me
So, that’s the overpowering smell I get whenever you’re around. My two cents: use whichever fragrance will best mask your jealousy, just go easy on the quantity for the sake of my nostril hair.
Silas
Moving on again … let us know how everything plays out, Will.
Mason
And preferably today. Christ, I haven’t been this stressed out since Ross mixed up Emily’s name on Friends and accidentally called her Rachel.
Mason
My single is showing, isn’t it?
Silas
Nothing wrong with Friends or being single. But for fuck’s sake, get yourself together, Mas.
Tristan
I don’t need an update since I don’t actually give a fuck.
Setting my phone down on the counter rather than biting back at Tristan like he wants me to, I head for the fridge but stop in my tracks and skid on the kitchen tiles when my cell starts vibrating.
I scramble to answer it.
