"So that's your master plan."
"Yep."
"Steal her?"
"Ah ah. Kidnap. She is not an object."
"Now why the hell would that be a good idea?"
A sigh. "Because I'm probably gonna give up soon, and this is the last thing I can think of."
"Aubrey, st- kidnapping her is not going to do anything good, unless being raped in jail is on your bucket list."
"I was just playin', Jhené."
"I know you were."
"So what should I do, huh? Sit here with a fuckin' beer like I'm watchin' a basketball game while Safaree's ass sweeps Onika off her feet?"
"Don't get snippy with me, Aubrey. It's not like I'm the one in love with Nicki."
"I am not in love with my best friend."
"Uh, yeah you are."
"Am not."
"Am too."
"How?"
"It's clear and evident, Aubrey."
"Again, I ask, how?"
"The way you look at her, talk to her, touch her. . ."
"You're making me uncomfortable."
"Good. What it looks like is you care for her general health so that she can dump Safaree and move on to you."
"Nuh uh! I just. . .don't want to see her get hurt."
"So you're saying it's just a crush."
"It's not anything!"
"Uh-huh. You even said that you'd kidnap her just to save her from Safaree."
"In a heartbeat."
"So if she were to dump Safaree or vise versa, what would you do?"
Silence.
"Aubrey?"
"I'd be there to support her through a hard time. Like a friend would do."
"And then you'd take that opportunity to pounce on her--"
"Jhené!"
"--and rip her clothes off--"
"HEY!"
"--and have quote unquote 'sympathy sex'. . ."
"Oh my God. I would not do that."
"Aubrey. Admit it. You are a sex hound. Always looking for the opportunity. . ."
"You know, I'm becoming increasingly uncomfortable talking about my sex life with you."
"Don't interrupt me, I'm on a roll. You're just waiting for a girl to break down so that you can take advantage of her in a fragile state--"
"Increasingly uncomfortable, Jhené!"
"Alright, alright, you win. But it's not like we never talk about my sex life."
"Because you're incredibly blunt."
"Yessiree."
"And you're almost never afraid to tall about what's on your mind. Which I love you for that, Jhené. Thank you."
"Hey, don't go getting all soft on me, big head. And you're welcome."
"I'm gonna go now, thanks for the talk."
"Anytime, Aubs. Peace!"
"Peace."
And Aubrey hung up.
