"Knock knock, Mr. Durrell! Fair time! And Imooogen's heeeere."
"..."
"Imogen. That's your cue."
"Oh oh, sorry. Hi Ian, I'm Imoge-"
"We should save the introductions for when he actually opens the door, guys."
"Yeah, but we can reel him in with our seductive voices. Duhhh, hehe."
"You're as seductive as my dead grandma."
"Was she hot?"
"Nope."
"A hooker?"
"Valerie! But then again, she could-"
"Ha! Hookers are pretty seductive."
"You want to be compared to a hooker?"
creak.
"Okay, your grandma hooker conversation got me."
"Hey Ian! This is Imogen."
"Aaaah Elliot, they both start with I's."
"Hi Imogen. I'm, clearly, Ian Durrell."
"Nice to meet you, Ian. I'm, obviously, Imogen. Oh, Weiss! Imogen Weiss."
"Kay guys, let's go!"
footsteps of the four retreat down the hall.
"You haven't gone by Marina's lately, Iano - Ian. What's wrong? Have I hotted you away as well?"
"Ahahaha! I mean, what the hell. Hotted?"
"Elliot, shut up. You're not that hot."
"Then why are you dating me? Huh?"
"My parents say I need to do more charity work."
"Oooh."
"Someone just got hecka burned."
"Need some ice, Marks?"
"You could stay at my place and just take care of that burn while we're out."
"I second that notion."
"Aye."
"What wh-"
"Sorry Elliot, the jury has made their decision. Adios!"
"Wait, Valerie-"
"It's 'Your Honor' to you."
"Ughhhhhhh."
"Hey, there's Starbucks there. Can we go grab something? An iced latte? I need my daily caffeine."
"I feel you bruh. Let's go."
"I'm kinda insulted that we're not going to Marina's instead."
"Elliot, you can go to Marina's then. We're going to Starbucks. Problem solved!"
"Humph. Fine. I'll go."
Valerie throws an arm around Elliot. Ian notices this and does the same to Imogen. Although she stiffens slightly, her body eventually relaxes into Ian's chest.
"You didn't really have a choice, love."
"I know. But I like thinking I do."
