Owen || Cassidy
"O-Owen"
"Cassidy? Is that really you?"
"Yes, It's me, Cassidy."
"I can't believe you actually called me. Wasn't last night enough for you? I mean you actually forced me to stay up all night with you."
"Okay, I know you are joking, but that is really rude."
"I know, and I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to come out that way. I'm surprised to hear your voice again and I got excited. Plus I really enjoyed talking to you all night."
"Even if it was for you to get information out of me."
"How-how did you know?"
"Cassidy, sweetheart, everything we talked about was concerning the college. Oh, by the way, I applied this morning."
"Oh, Owen I am so proud of you. And yeah, I guess I wasn't as secretive as I tried to be."
"Thank you, Cassidy. I wouldn't have done it if it wasn't for you."
"I don't believe that."
"It's true. Without you I wouldn't have realized how much I love and enjoy helping people. Also, don't for one second think that you were just a project for me. That is not the case."
"I guess that part is true. And don't worry, I do not think that. I had too much fun talking to you for that to be the case."
"Good."
"Speaking of all of this sappy stuff, there are a few things I want to tell you."
"Oh, boy do I want to know?"
"Sorry, joking again."
"Don't worry, I'm starting to love your sense of humor."
"I guess that is a good thing."
"Yeah, it is. Especially with what I want to tell you."
"Oh, yeah. I almost forgot about that. What is it?"
"Well considering I'm at work now and don't want talk about it with everyone listening-- yes Anna, I'm talking about you, no, I'm not kidding-- I'll tell you when I get home."
"That's alright with me, though I do have a few questions, if you don't mind answering them, Sweetheart."
"Ill answer all of your questions if you answer mine, please."
"Sounds like a plan."
"Okay what do you want to know babe?"
"Nice progress with the nickname by the way. It's a step, still don't think it's fitting. But first off who's Anna?"
"Thanks, I guess. You did say it would be tough. And Anna is my coworker slash friend. Actually my only friend with your help. Ill explain more later."
"Alright, I will be waiting. I am curious of how I help out with this. My other question is why'd you call me right now."
"I found out what college you want to go to. Its Berkley College."
