V - Six more days.

M - Cue panic.

V - Chaos brain will be a thing of the past.

M - Says you. If I'm being weird or awkward, just hug me.

V - First thing.

M - May not let go for a while.

V - I'm good with that.

M - Have you thought this through?

V - On repeat, since we agreed.

M - Preferred scenario for first contact?

V - Sounds awkward already.

M - Bite me.

V - Probably shouldn't tell me that. If I roll up and start biting...

M - Biting later. Calm me.

V - We're going to meet at a restaurant. Outside, there's a bench. When I see you, I'm going to hug you. When we untangle, we'll be fine because the hard part will be over.

M - Thank you.

V - Probably will need you to return the favor between now and then.

M - I can do that. Let's agree if both of us get overwhelmed, we won't ignore each other and the awkwardness, and make everything worse.

V - Agreed. If you're anxious—hold me, Bubba. I'll do the same. Thoughts?

M - Yes, agreed. Names at some point too.

V - Just say when. Your call.

M - Friends at minimum, but if I kiss you and you don't kiss me back, I'm going to cry.

V - I won't let you cry.
