She calls.
Her: I'm sorry about last time.
Him: Don't worry. I'm a big boy, I can handle it.
Her: Really Luke, I shouldn't have taken out my frustration on you. Im sorry.
Him: Wh-
Her: But no. I'm still not going to tell you why.
Him: Pretty please, for big boy Luke.
Her: That honestly sounded like a five year olds plea for chocolate or something.
Him: I'm internally five didn't you know?
Her: I guess I'm forgiven for acting so rude?
Him: I was never mad.
Her: How are you so freaking nice?
Him: Internally I build up niceness just like how I work out.
Her: You never work out.
Him: True, these bad boys come naturally.
Her: ...
Him: I stupidly flexed my arms assuming that you could see them.
Her: You're an idiot.
Him: So I've been told mulitple times by you specifically.
Her: I only speak the truth.
Him: Do you enjoy verbally abusing my ego?
Her: It's actually quite entertaining.
Him: Anyway, what do you like doing on your free time?
Her: Um why?
Him: I'm trying to get to know you obviously.
Her: Oh, well... I like to sing I guess.
Him: Really? Are you any good.
Her: I sound like a screeching cat.
Him: That's not even posssible. You're voice is so nice to listen to already.
Her: ...
Him: ... Wait. Ignore what I just said.
Her: Should I be creeped out?
Him: Probably. But I still think you're most likely amazing. You should sing for me!
Her: Uh no. I've never sung in front of anyone before.
Him: But it wouldn't be infront of anyone, it would be over the phone.
Her: No.
Him: Mysty please!
Her: No.
Him: Please!
Her: No.
Him: My-
Her: No.
Him: Fine.
Her: Good. So what do you like to do?
Him: I bake.
Her: So manly.
Him: I'm actually proud of it. So go ahead and laugh it up.
Her: I actualy think it's kind of cute.
Him: Well I could make you something.
Her: That's impossible, you don't even know who I am.
Him: Trust me, I'll get it to you.
Her: Good luck with that, superman.
Him: I don't need luck, I'm just great like that. What else do you do?
Her: Nothing.
Him: There has to be something.
Her: I work at an animal shelter.
Him: That's cool, you're an animal kind of person.
Her: I work well with them if that's what you mean. I just find them adorable.
Him: I find kids adorable, that's why I assist a little classroom in need of help every summer.
Her: Aren't you just a little saint.
Him: I'm an idiot and a saint apparently.
Her: I should go, It's getting late. Oh and your more of an idiot.
She hangs up.
