Morning Thumper.

Dude that is a common thing to do to melons. I don't get how you have never done it. Plus if I got the wrong one for my mom's melon ball punch she probably would have disowned me on Christmas. In all honesty I am surprised she even remembered I was at the function so for her to disown me would be some sort of acknowledgement I exist. And also is it even morning where you are?

I am sure your mother isn't that mean. She loves you. Both your parents do. It's sort of morning. About 4 am. Got to the hotel about an hour ago with a lovely lady on my arm. Who is currently in the shower cleaning off the...well you don't need to know the details. let's call it the 'holiday festivities'? 

Yes. Please spare me those. And no, you have not met my parents nor will you ever. They are horrible people. Only thing they are good for is when they know they have messed up they give me their card and I swipe away the pain. 

I would like to meet them. Maybe if they saw you bring me home they would pay more attention. No one wants their daughter dating a scummy drummer of an up-and-coming band. And I am going to be in your town this week. I actually will be landing tomorrow, well I guess tonight...

And you said if I offered further down the line you would consider possibly making plans with me for New Years...

Are you still even reading these texts?

Sorry. Was in the shower...and now I feel like one of the many women you sleep with after saying that. haha

Trust me your shower would have been much longer if you wanted to wash off what I did to you. ;)

Visuals were really not necessary. But I did set myself up for that one I guess. 

Are you trying to avoid my question? I don't like when people avoid me. 

But you're letting Amelia...

I'm sorry. That was a low blow. I didn't mean it to come out so harshly. 

No. No. You're right. But in all fairness I guess I have been trying to avoid her as well. You have helped a lot with that. And also this bottle blonde who is in the shower helped. I should thank her when she gets out. ;)

Again more details than needed. But you're welcome. And yes I am avoiding the question because I don't have an answer for you. 

It is a pretty simple question to answer. Yes or No? 

...

I don't know. You don't think it would be odd? 

You would be the only one who would think so. I know what you're questioning. You think I am either doing this to get Amelia's attention, and hoping she shows up to whatever event we go to, or I am doing it just to get in to your pants. And on both accounts you would be...

CORRECT! 

Oh My God. You're so ridiculous Ash. haha. You know the second one will never happen. But since Amelia is one of the few people I hang out with, the first idea would most likely happen. But she did promise to explain why she can't be with you, or doesn't want to, so it might be needed for you to see her.
