Gideon | Carys

Hey.

What?

Logan thinks I owe you an apology.

And you disagree with his judgement because...?

How did you know I disagreed?

I could tell by your tone, asshole. Do me a favour and never text me again until you have some sort of apology in mind.

Wait.

What?

I'm sorry.

Really?

PSYCHE. YOU WISH. My feelings still haven't changed.

You're a mess.

Thanks.

That was not meant to be a compliment.

Well I took it as one anyway. What're you going to do about it?

Show the school how much of an asshole you are so they will hate you for life and never want to speak to you again.

... wow. That was... Intense.

Thanks.

That was not a compliment.

But here I am, accepting it as one. What're you going to do about it?

Expose your true identity to the whole school.

And how do you plan on doing that? You don't even know me and I doubt you ever will, Gideon Payne-in-the-ass.

I have my ways, love.

What are you? British?

I heard girls liked British guys.

Well this girl doesn't, so cut it out.

What did you say love? I couldn't hear you over all those girls screaming my name because of my drool-worthy accent.

You're American.

Stop stealing my thunder.

But that's my job.

Your job is to play Cupid, not be Zeus.

You know mythology?

Oh please. I live and breathe mythology.

I think my respect for you has just grown ten notches.

Aww. I feel the love, love.

I think you're going to do more than that. You're still a negative 90 on my respect scale.

Ouch. You're so...

Don't say it. Don't you dare say it.

Feisty.

You said it. Please leave.

But then you'll miss me and my beautiful English accent, love.

I highly doubt that. Wait. Don't you have a biology essay to do?

Yeah but who cares about biology?

I do.

That explains everything.

What?

Nothing.

GIDEON PAYNE.

I'll tell you if you help me with Lydia.

... Not worth it.

Damn it.

Yeah. I'm not falling for that. You've got to be GIDding me. hahaHAHA.

Can you not? How can you be smart enough to make puns out of my name but not to understand something that requires your intellect?

Did you just... Compliment me? GIDEON PAYNE JUST COMPLIMENTED ME. THE WORLD IS GOING TO END.

Shut up.

Back to the short, charming phrase you greeted me with yesterday?

It's good to bring the world back to a full circle before it ends.

Boom.

What?

The world just ended.
