Jared: Hey, I saw your sister today at the supermarket. She almost ran away from me when I saw her. Did I do something wrong? Or did she hear our conversation that day?

Me: Chill. She had to hurry... to take care of me. I am a bit sick.

Lies, more lies. My name should be Lying Marshall. Not Allison.

Jared: Oh... you okay? I can come by if you want.

Me: No. My parents are here. My sister is here. They are taking care of me.

Jared: Yeah. But I am not there. You need me. ;)

Me: I am not THAT sick. Mild fever. I am okay now.

Jared: Liar.

Me: Why do you say that?

Jared: Because I am starting to know you better. You will say things to remove attention from you.

Me: No.

Jared: TOTALLY! Are you even sure you are a cheerleader? You should DIE for attention!

Me: Well, I do it to keep myself fit. Not for attention.

Jared: Boys must be in line for you.

Me: Sort of.

It was half true, Alice had boys gawking at her, not me. The few proposals I got were so pathetic attempts or complete creeps that I wanted to run away from there.

Jared: How many boys have proposed to you till date?

Me: Lost count.

Jared: That many, huh? You accept?

Me: Sometimes. Otherwise rejected.

Jared: So, I come in the latter category, right?

Me: Jared....

Jared: I know we are friends and all. But suppose I was your boyfriend, I would be a little possessive. I can't deny that.

Me: Hmm. I wouldn't do the same. You could have friends who are girls. I would trust you completely not to cheat on me.

Jared: Woah! Did you just hint we MIGHT be a couple? ;)))

Me: No. No. No. You started it. I was just citing an example.

Jared: When a girl says no it means yes and when she says yes, it means no. When she says okay, it might be maybe and fine means definitely something is not okay.

Me: You seem to know a lot about girls...

Jared: Do I sense something burning? Oh yes! You are JEALOUS!

Me: Am not.

Jared: Are too.

Me: Am not.

Jared: Are too.

Me: Am ABSOLUTELY not!

Jared: You SO are. Jeez! The room is burning hot! Turn on the AC, will you?

Me: Where is the sweet innocent Jared that I like?

Jared: He is currently sleeping in a corner of my elevated mind. The flirty Jared is wide awake now. He is ready to conquer the day.

Me: You are seriously one of a kind.

Jared: You too, Alice.

Me: Okay, bye.

Jared: Yeah, you need to rest. Get well soon.

Me: Sure. I am already feeling right.

Jared: Thanks to me.

Me: Is it hard?

Jared: What?

Me: To see? Your ego is blocking the way.

Jared: That was stupid. Stay fit. I am gonna pick you at 8 this weekend. Take care and get well soon.

Me: No more ice skating?

Jared: Nope. No physical activities because you need rest. See you day after tomorrow. I can't believe its been a week since we have hung out again.

Wrong. We met a few hours ago.

Me: Hmm. See you tomorrow. By what time should I expect to be home?

Jared: Same as previous time.

Me: Cool. Bye.

Jared: Bye.

Me: Bye.

Jared: Bye.

Jared: You are still online?

Me: Maybe...

Jared: Can't let go of me, huh? ;)

Who said he sucked at flirting? It seemed pretty good to me. Maybe I didn't know the real players but this was quite acceptable.

Me: When is the sweet innocent Jared getting up?

Jared: Not today. Maybe day after tomorrow. :D

Me: Good. I need HIM day after tomorrow.

Jared: You wound me again. </3

Me: I am still unfazed...

Jared: You are so odd.

Me: That's what makes me weird.

Jared: : *

Me: Okay, FINAL bye.

Jared: You won't go....you love me too much for that.

Jared: Alice?

Jared: You gone?

Jared: Alice! Aliceee! Al!! Alll!!

Jared: I guess you are. Bye. Sweet dreams.

Jared: Nah! I KNOW your dreams are gonna be sweet because I will be there. ;)

Jared: Goodnight, weirdo.
