"So, what time am I going to pick you up?"

❝Excuse me?❞

"You know, I buy you a bottle of wine..."

❝I am seventeen and refuse to drink.❞

"And fancy cheese. Then I'll take you out to a picnic and we'll have crackers..."

❝Aren't we suppose to eat the cheese with crackers on a picnic not before hand?❞

"Then we'll bike ride around a park and swing on the swings and talk about deep shit..."

❝Quentin, love.❞

"Yes, darling?"

❝I never agreed to going on a date with you. I will admit that the date does sound promising, but you never asked me.❞

"So, does that mean you are agreeing to going on a date with me now?"

❝No. You still didn't ask me.❞

"Okay, fine. Nerissa will you-"

❝No I will not go on a date with you.❞

"Why? I thought you wanted me to ask."

❝Not over the phone you idiot. Isn't like such a stereotypical guy thing to do?❞

"Well, yes, but I am not like other guys."

❝Do I need to remind you of the word dynamic? Because that just screams I'm just like other guys.❞

"I said I was sorry for that! I thought we moved past that."

❝Maybe we did. Maybe I just like to mention it to guilt trip you sometimes.❞

"That is mean and I have never been more attracted to you."

❝Stop before you make me puke.❞

"You love me!"

❝Too soon.❞

"You like me?"

❝Well...what is...wait. Is that you? In that creepy ass black hoodie standing by the door?❞

"Yes that's me, myself, and I. In the somewhat flesh."

❝What...are you doing? Are you getting up on a table? Quentin get down! Now! People are staring at you! I am about to hang up and pull you down there myself!❞

"Attention! Everyone! I am on the phone with the greatest barista in this cafe right now and I would like to put her on speaker phone despite being right there in front of the counter."

❝Quentin don't!❞

"Nerissa, oh Nerissa, will you honor me in this cafe by saying yes to a date with me?"

❝...❞

"Oh she's just shy. Nerissa, darling, your answer?"

❝Yes I'll go on one date with you.❞

"Sweet! Thanks for the claps everybody...ah!"

❝Get out! Get out! You're not allowed to just stand on a table and ask me out!❞

"I walked all the way over here!"

❝I didn't ask you too!❞

"But you said yes."

❝I did say yes...❞

"You said yes."

❝Fine it's a date. Now will you get out?❞
