with your stuff.Jay: It's okay, the kids gave me a hand.

Jay: It's first and third.
(to Beyoncé )Come sit down, honey. Have some pizza.Y/n: Yeah, there's plenty.

Y/n: Do we have any chips?

Y/n: Come over tonight. After they're
asleep. Say three o'clock.Beyoncé: Go fuck yourself.
Y/n: Let's see ... Who would you prefer
