rydelr5: can I call you?

ellingtonratliff: damn, that escalated quickly.

ellingtonratliff: but yeah go ahead

Rydel Lynch is calling you.

"Okay, now you can ask me some questions about myself."

"Why don't you just tell me whatever you want to tell me?"

"Uhm, okay."

"I'll listen."

"Well, I'm 18-"

"Me too."

"I play keyboard-"

"Drums."

"I have four brothers-"

"I have none."

"Can you quit cutting me o-"

"No."

A soft giggle sounded from the other side of the phone.

"Okay then. I don't have any pets-"

"I have two dogs."

"My parents have been married for almost twenty five years..."

Rydel waited until Ellington would respond, but he didn't.

"... Sorry."

"It's okay."

"It's not."

"It is, Rydel."

Another silence fell.

"You didn't pronounce my name right."

"Wait, how do you-"

"Ride-ell."

Ellington chuckled.

"Maybe later."

Rydel sighed.

"You're such a-"

"Sukkel?"

"A what?"

"It's Dutch for loser."

"Yeah. You're a sukkel."
