"Noah! Stop it."

"Stop what?"

"Staring at me like that, it's turning to a bad case of awkwardity."

"I like staring at you, you're cute."

"And you're being freakishly cheesy."

"But you're blushing."

"Mmmmm, nice comeback."

"So. Let's talk."

"...."

"Are you texting?"

"What? No."

"Is it Brent?"

"What does it matter?"

"You stopped watching the movie five minutes ago."

"Look, I'm sorry. What did you want to talk about?"

"Our relationship."

"We've been on two dates, Noah."

"I know that."

"So what's up?"

"Well, it's about your friend, Brent."

"What about him?"

"You're going to have to let him go."

"Why?"

"He's the obstacle in this relationship, can't you see that?"

"Him being my best friend is not an 'obstacle' in any way."

"So you're 'best' friends now, huh?"

"That's none of your goddamn business."

"It is! You were texting him on our date!"

"I told you I was sorry! That's not enough to yell at me."

"You're right, I'm sorry about that."

"..."

"C'mere, let's cuddle."

"Cuddle?"

"That's how Google said you get the girl."

"Woah, you did research?"
