Owen || Cassidy
How did the date go?
It wasn't a date. Since you know, he wasn't there.
That makes sense. But how was it?
It was pretty nice.
Just nice?
I kind of would have liked if he was there.
Ah. Did you like the stuff he left you?
Yeah I did. How do you think he knows I love m&ms and roses?
I don't know Cassidy, what do you think?
I honestly don't know what to think Owen.
Why?
Am I going to just believe that some guy - I don't even know his name - has a crush on me and he leaves me gifts at some random place? The place that just so happens to be your work? You also know a lot about this guy and I just need to pretend that it's okay?
That it is not weird at all? Because that seems like a load of bull crap to me.
What are you getting at Cassidy?
It may just be my imagination, but I think you left me the stuff and you made up this guy.
Is that really what you think of happened?
Yes. Yes I do. 100 percent.
I don't know what to say Cassidy.
Did you or did you not make the guy up? Did you or did you no give me the roses and chocolates? Because a few days before you asked me what my favorite things are.
Alright, alright. You got me. I did buy you the stuff because I felt bad about how I acted before and thought it would be a good idea to apologize for it.
You really thought that was a good idea? Remember what happen when I sent that stuff to you? How you freaked out?
Sorry. I guess I didn't really think about it. But there is a guy who kind of likes you.
Well tell him I am not interested. There is already somebody else. Don't ask who because you already know who it is.
I don't really like that.
Why?
Just because.
Well, stupid. When have I ever told you I liked someone?
I don't remember any you saying anything like that and I just looked through our texts and I can't find anything mentioning a crush or liking someone.
No duh Owen.
No need to be mean. I don't understand what you are talking about.
Just think about it and let me know what you come up with.
Still got nothing.
Oh my goodness, do I have to spell it out for you? I L-I-K-E Y-O-U!!
Oh. . .
