OMG you had better be joking.

My phone chimes with a new DM.

Velvet Villainess

Can I ask you something?

Anything…

The Ghost Prince

Yes.

Velvet Villainess

What are you doing tonight?

My dickimmediatelyrises to full attention.

The Ghost Prince

Is this you asking me over to Netflix and chill?

Velvet Villainess

*Eye roll emoji* Well not ANYMORE it’s not…

The Ghost Prince

Actually, there is something I have to do tonight.

Velvet Villainess

Oh, ok. No problem.

She frowns at her phone.

The Ghost Prince

Kidding, little villain. The only thing I’m doing tonight is you.

Velvet Villainess

lol

Velvet Villainess

Why is that hilarious when you say it and not cheesy?

The Ghost Prince

Because I’m staggeringly charming?

Velvet Villainess

And so humble!
