Sebastian:
How's your Saturday?

Eden:
So busy! Just finished a wedding set up. I've got my new favourite.

Sebastian:
That doesn't shock me.

Eden:
How's your Saturday?

Sebastian:
Quiet actually. Everyone's busy.

Eden:
Suppose you've lost Nat now, what with her and Zoya being all cute and together and stuff.

Sebastian:
Cute? I wouldn't describe Nat as cute. She's feral.

Eden:
So is Zoya. But together = cute. Zoya looks so smitten.

Sebastian:
I've heard a rumour.

Eden:
You have?

Sebastian:
Yep. That Nat is joining you and Zoya for your Sunday evening drinks.

Eden:
She is. I'm just going to smile through the third wheeling.

Sebastian:
It'll be fine. Just keep Nat away from shots.

Eden:
Duly noted.

Eden:
What are you doing tomorrow?

Sebastian:
Nothing. It's a boring weekend. Might go and pester Charlotte till she lets me crash her date night.

Eden:
You can't do that!

Sebastian:
Why not?

Eden:
It's her date night! You can't ruin it. I'd be so mad if you did that to me.

Sebastian:
Who are you dating?

Eden:
I mean it hypothetically.

Sebastian:
Okay, hypothetically, who are you dating?

Eden:
You're being ridiculous.

Sebastian:
Do I have to fight him for the privilege of your attention?

Eden:
Maybe. Come next weekend, I might actually have a man I'm interested in dating. Hypothetically.

Sebastian:
You've met someone?

Eden:
No, but my brother wants to introduce me to his friend at his party. Says he's just my type.

Sebastian:
And what's that?

Eden:
I'm not sure, but if he's as nice as my brother says, I might let him take me out.

Sebastian:
I'm nice.

Eden:
You are.

Sebastian:
So let me take you out.

Sebastian:
On a date.

Eden:
You're asking me on a date over message?

Sebastian:
No. I'm talking hypothetically.

Eden:
Well, hypothetically, if someone wants to ask me on a date, I'd prefer it not to be over text.

Sebastian:
Of course. Eden, I'll message you later, I've just got to sort something out, okay?

Eden:
Alright. Speak to you soon.

Sebastian:
Definitely.
