ANNA Why am I staring at a wall?
JJ Because, I'm not about to show you my tits on camera. Can I please shower in peace?
ANNA No. Now, are you going to tell me why you haven't slept last night? Oh, while you're at it, why you were out running, while you had zero sleep in your system at six o'clock in the morning?
JJ [JJ sighed and peaked her head just a little into the camera] Because, Piper wanted to go for a run and I offered my company, and she agreed.
ANNA Jayje, you hate running with a burning passion
JJ Only when I run with you, because you're literally a terrorist
ANNA Oh, shush! You just like Piper.
JJ I do, she's really nice. And she laughs at my jokes!
ANNA But your jokes suck?
JJ No they don't! Anna— is there a purpose for this call?
ANNA Yes, I wanna know why you exercised at six in the morning.
JJ [JJ remained quiet for a few moments. She turned the water off and grabbed a towel from the rack before wrapping it around herself and grabbing her phone]. I kind of ditched out on her yesterday without an explanation and I felt guilty about it because it was rude and I don't know, I guess I wanted to hang out with her because, like I said, she laughs at my jokes.
ANNA [Anna-Louise chuckled] She's just being nice.
JJ And she finds my jokes funny. And also, I didn't actually think she would take me up on that offer. Who the hell runs at six in the morning?
[They both laughed]
ANNA Your crush, apparently
JJ Patrick does not wake up at six
ANNA [Anna-Louise sighed] Not what I meant. But how's he doing?
JJ Good! He's still asleep. It was cute of him, you know, to just show up. Surprising, but cute.
ANNA Yeah, I bet. Are you happy?
JJ Yeah, I think so.
ANNA Right... So, how was your day at work yesterday?
JJ [JJ rolled her eyes] Good, I think. And if you're asking about the kiss, it was also good. Professional. Cinnamon.
ANNA What?
JJ It tasted like cinnamon.
ANNA Like... Piper tasted like cinnamon?
JJ Sure. Like, cinnamon flavoured gum.
ANNA Huh... So, you enjoyed it?
JJ As any actors enjoys kissing their costar
ANNA Who tastes like cinnamon flavoured gum
JJ Yes, exactly.
ANNA What does Patrick taste like?
JJ What does Percy taste like?
ANNA On good days, watermelon.
JJ [JJ snorted] Coffee.
ANNA What?
JJ Patrick. He tastes like coffee.
ANNA Oh, okay. So... did you feel guilty about anything?
JJ Only the bit where she still doesn't know I'm bi.
ANNA And that you enjoyed it a little too much?
JJ Just the normal amount.
ANNA So, not the "it felt so awesome, it made me dizzy and I wanna taste the cinnamon flavoured gum again," amount?
JJ [JJ hesitated for a split-second. It was enough for Anna to understand.] Just the normal amount.
ANNA Okay! So, how's London treating you?
JJ Pretty well. The tea's actually so good, I think they might be converting me.
ANNA [Anna let out a genuine gasp.] No more two p.m. iced vanilla lattes runs?
JJ No, I can never give those up. But maybe no more 8 p.m. Americanos runs.
ANNA Ah... giving up the hot drinks, then?
JJ I've learned that tea is the superior hot drink.
ANNA Wow, who are you and what have you done to my best friend?
JJ Just give me two hours back in Los Angeles and I'll be back to my usual self.
ANNA You know, all that caffeine might be the root of all your terrible sleeping habits.
JJ Maybe. I didn't have coffee yesterday evening though.
ANNA Too much sex?
JJ [JJ glared playfully at her friend through the screen] Shut up. I should get dressed. So, I'll talk to you soon. Yeah?
