iMESSAGE between CHASE and SEBASTIAN

Chase Robertson
I heeded your warning.

Sebastian Stan
Glad you can listen.

Chase Robertson
Much like the way I listened to you
back during our sophomore year of
high school. I'm sure you remember
that. You were always good at making
sure you got what you wanted.

Sebastian Stan
Of course I remember.

Chase Robertson
There's no need for you to be like
that anymore, Sebastian. I don't
want Reyna. I've already told you I
was engaged.

Sebastian Stan
I'm aware, but can you really blame
me for being just a bit cautious? It's
different now. She's not just my best friend
anymore, Chase. She's the love of my life.
I'll do whatever it takes to protect her.

Chase Robertson
I know that and I've known that for
years. But you don't need to protect her
from me. I'm absolutely harmless. Reyna
doesn't effect me the way she used to.

Sebastian Stan
Kind of hard to believe given the extent
of your past obsession with her, or do you
remember that the way I do?

Chase Robertson
I remember it all perfectly, Sebastian.
But that isn't who I am anymore, and
that's something I can promise you. I'm
not after Reyna, and I haven't been for
years. That ended the moment I was handed
my diploma.

Sebastian Stan
Yeah? Which one?

Chase Robertson
Don't turn this into something it's
not. We're adults, Sebastian. Let's
act like it.

Sebastian Stan
I like you, Chase. You're a good person,
or at least you were most of the time, but
I'm being serious. When it comes to Reyna
I don't play around, and that was something
you figured out long before the concept of
she and I being a couple even existed. A lot
has changed since then, including the amount
of power I have over you. Back then I just had
my stepdad, but now I have an entire industry
behind me. If you decide that what you're telling me you don't feel for Reyna is all of a
sudden untrue, or if you decide to pull the stunt you did all those years ago, I will ruin you.

Chase Robertson
I like you too, Sebastian. I like that
you're so protective over the ones that
you love even when you don't need to
be, but it's admirable nonetheless. Anyway,
you're not the only one with a fair share of
"power." You forget that I work for one of the
largest companies in the world, but that's okay.
I hear your warning, and I will abide by it. All
I want is to find some time to spend with a
couple of old friends. Is that too much to
ask?

Sebastian Stan
I guess not. I guess I'll talk to Reyna
and see when she has her day off. But
I mean it, Robertson. One slip up and
you're done for.

Chase Robertson
Duly noted, Stan
