Tao: Elle could you come help me with the landscape? There's something we need to talk about.
Elle: You okay? You seem.. off
Tao: No I'm not. Please come here.
Elle: 2 minutes
Tao: I feel so stupid, can we do this by text?
Elle: Tao just spit it out you ridiculous boy!
Tao: FINE! Look, you're my best friend in the whole world, but earlier today when we sat on the table and just looked into each other's eyes. I dunno. Something changed like a switch in my head. I'm sorry this is so stupid.
Elle: Speak, now.
Tao: Fml, I dunno okay!? We were just both there and you just looked so beautiful and I wanted to just hold you and move the piece of stray hair from your brow but at the same time WHY AM I THINKING THIS.
Elle: Okay. 1. You have zero game. 2. Is that how you feel now?
Tao: I guess?
Elle: TAO
Tao: FINE, yes I still feel that.
Elle: Oh you completely ridiculous heterosexual. Come here.

Elle: 0 game.
Tao: STOPPPP. I'm trying my best.
Elle: I know, that's what makes it so funny 😂😂 and what makes you so cute 🧡
