Eden:
Seabass I have to tell you something.

Sebastian:
I know you did not just call me Seabass.

Eden:
I wanted to test it out. I'm not vibing with it. You're still Sebastian.

Sebastian:
Thank God.

Eden:
But seriously, I have to tell you something.

Sebastian:
Are you alright?

Eden:
Yeah I'm fine. Nervous, but fine.

Eden:
But I really need to tell you because we're going to meet in like 2 days and if I don't tell you now then I don't know how you'll react.

Sebastian:
...okay.

Eden:
If I upset you, I understand.

Sebastian:
Alright, I'm kind of nervous myself now.

Eden:
I have a serious confession.

Eden:
We've met before.

Sebastian:
At the bar?

Eden:
Since then.

Sebastian:
When?

Eden:
At my extroverted, works in hospitality, brother's nightclub. The Late GarDen (of Eden).

Sebastian:
Okay, I'm feeling really stupid right now for not being able to connect the dots. Expand please.

Eden:
I'm Dennie.

Sebastian:
Oh.

Eden:
Are you upset with me?

23:14

Eden:
I'm really sorry I lied Sebastian. I just saw you talking with my brother and I FREAKED and I knew you wouldn't recognise me and I didn't know if you were Noah's friend and I was stressing out and then Zoya saw that I was freaking and I honestly didn't know what to do.

Eden:
I didn't want you to officially meet me in front of my brother because he can be a little overbearing. I didn't want him to know anything about it really, because our whole situation is a little strange. And I get really nervous all the time and when I'm nervous I do dumb shit like tell people my name is Dennie and I thank them for fixing my brothers car. It was all so awkward.

Sebastian:
I'm not upset with you. I have a couple questions though.

Eden:
Oh? Yeah, sure, ask away.

Sebastian:
Zoya, or Zee - is she with your brother?

23:23

Eden:
Oh. No.

Eden:
I can give her your number.

Sebastian:
No Eden! Not for me, for Nat. She wouldn't shut up about her after you left.

Eden:
Oh! Yeah, that sounds good. I'm sure Zoya would be happy with that.

Sebastian:
Great. And my next question. Would you prefer I call you Eden or Dennie?

Eden:
Eden. Dennie is pretty much reserved for my brother.

Eden:
You're really not upset with me for lying?

Sebastian:
Why would I be upset? I'm upset with myself for not figuring it out.

Sebastian:
I had a version of you in my head.

Eden:
You did?

Sebastian:
About 20, even after you told me what you look like. You're better than all of them.

Sebastian:
And smaller.

Eden:
I told you I was 5'3 and a half in shoes.

Sebastian:
You were in heels, and still looked small.

Eden:
I was in heels. Didn't think you would have noticed.

Sebastian:
While you were busy trying not to have a meltdown, I was busy checking you out.

Eden:
You were?

Sebastian:
Respectfully.

Eden:
I'm processing.

Sebastian:
So you have a whole nightclub named after you, and have never once gloated?

Eden:
It's Noah's success, not mine.

Sebastian:
Eden and Noah. Your parents are devout.

Eden:
You're taking this way better than I expected. I've felt sick all day at the thought of telling you.

Sebastian:
Idiot. I don't care.

Eden:
I see that now.

Sebastian:
I'm actually more excited to meet you now. To see if I made up how beautiful you were.

Eden:
I was sweating a lot.

Sebastian:
I couldn't tell.

Sebastian:
But I've decided something.

Eden:
Yes?

Sebastian:
Any guy who was lucky enough to have a girl like you and fuck you over - they're more stupid than I ever thought.

Eden:
You're flirting again.

Sebastian:
I'm being honest. You're as beautiful on the outside as you are on the inside.

Eden:
Stop flirting.

Sebastian:
Are you blushing?

Eden:
Probably. My face feels a little hot.

Sebastian:
And I know exactly what a blushing Eden looks like. This is the biggest feeling of victory ever.

Eden:
You're such a loser.

Sebastian:
I know.

Eden:
So we're still good?

Sebastian:
We are. And we're still on for Monday?

Eden:
4pm.

Sebastian:
Good. I'll see you then Eden.

Eden:
Goodnight Seabass.

Sebastian:
Goodnight Dennie.

A big W for Seabass.
