Driving Maisie Crazy

This weekend, it was Finn’s turn to host, and he couldn’t wait.

Matthew

Not impossible this time. I tell you, Winnie is my secret weapon.

Cedric

Well, moving from last to first would be quite the feat.

Matthew

…I wasn’t last…

Finn

That’s right. You took out a granda so you wouldn’t come in last. Poor man was laid out flat on the ground.

Matthew

Lies.

Graham

That’s exactly how I remember it.

Cedric

Same.

Matthew

Well, whatever happens, you’ll all be sorry when I’m the only one greeted with a kiss at the finish line.

Finn

Ouch. That’s true enough.

Think Winnie has enough kisses to go around?

Matthew

*GIF of man folding his arms, unamused*

No.

Finn

You don’t seem very reliable right now. Maybe I’ll text her and ask her myself.

Cedric

Why don’t you just ask her here? I’m sure she’s right by Matthew’s side. She always is.

Matthew sent a photo of him and Winnie seated together, Winnie placing a kiss on Matthew’s cheek as he smiled on in delight.

Matthew

I mean, you’re not wrong.
