j: i have to repay you.

j: here's a little known fact about me.

j: i can kind of play guitar.

n: oh really? ;)

n: you really are the moody, mysterious artist hipster. ;)

j: don't label me! ;)

j: anyway, what's your favorite song?

n: play wonderwall for me, jonathan

j: ugh

j: you're such a cliche, nancy wheeler. :) give me a challenge.

n: wonderwall is a great song!!

j: yeah, but what guitar player hasn't played that song for his girlfriend before?

n: what?

j: what? it's a predictable song.

j: wait!

j: no!

n: jonathan byers, am i your girlfriend now? i don't remember you asking. ;)

j: that's not what i meant. i just meant like, the girl he's interested in.

n: you're interested in me? ;)

j: well, yeah. thought that was obvious. :)

n: it's just nice to hear sometimes. :)

j: i'm still not ready for a relationship. i'm just worried.

j: can i tell you something really personal?

n: of course.

j: i've never kissed anyone before

n: oh.

j: i know. i'm pathetic.

n: no, not at all!

n: it's okay!

n: i only ever dated steve.

n: i'm not much more experienced than you.

j: yeah, but...

n: but?

j: never mind

n: no, what?

j: i mean, just...

j: you've done more than just kiss, right?

n: yeah, so?

j: nothing. i sound stupid. never mind.

n: if you're worried that i won't like you because you have no clue what you're doing, you're wrong.

j: okay.

j: i think it would be a huge honor for you to be my first kiss, nancy wheeler.

n: it's an honor to me too. :)

j: i have to go. homework and such. have a good night, nance.

n: of course. :) you too. xx
