Alex: When
Alex: Where
Alex: Give me a time and a place and I'm there
You: Thursday?
You: idk where
You: this is so much pressure
Alex: no it's okay I can pick a place!! I just want to make sure that you're comfortable with everything :)
You: you're a real sweetheart
Alex: ikr? I can actually be nice sometimes
Alex: there's a good place not too far from Monet's
You: sounds good
You: now, please, let's talk about something else before I can overthink it and back out
Alex: of course
Alex: but you'll be okay, I promise
Alex: okay you wanna know what I just thought
You: Sure
Alex: we literally spend our entire lives talking
Alex: like, every day, with a bunch of different people
Alex: how do we never run out of things to say
You: I do have some silent days
You: but that's an interesting thought
Alex: I wonder how much of what people say actually matters and how much is just bullshit
You: my estimate would be somewhere along 99-100 on the bullshit meter, the 99 indicating how much is bullshit
Alex: for someone who constantly texts me during geometry class, you sound pretty smart
You: Oh, shut up
You: Leave the sarcasm for me 😊
Alex: excuse me
Alex: if 99% of what I say is bullshit, I should at least be allowed a little sarcasm every once in a while
You: once again: shut up
You: And you're not the average
You: you'd only score, like, a 75% on the bullshit meter
Alex: I don't think I'll ever get used to you complimenting me
Alex: but I like it :)
You: I wouldn't mind one coming my way every once in a while 🙄
Alex: *your voice* oh shut up
Alex: I think that you're the most interesting person that I've ever spoken to
Alex: and that the world would be a lot better off if more people were like you
You: *alex voice* :)
Alex: don't forget the TM
You: :)™
