"Good morning, I brought you coffee."
"This is why you're my favourite person ever."
"I finally remembered the question I actually wanted to ask you yesterday."
"Let's get on with it then."
"What's something that's on your bucket list?"
"Nothing special, really. I just have some places I want to travel to. I want to kiss someone in the rain. I want to watch the sunset on a beach. Oh, skinny dipping is on there too. It's pretty basic stuff."
"Basic or not, it does sound pretty good."
"Are you blushing? You're totally blushing. Does the good girl get embarrassed by the idea of skinny dipping?"
"Oh, shut up."
"Hiding your face in your hands definitely doesn't help."
"Yeah, yeah, I know. Just ask your question, okay?"
"Okay, now I'm wondering, have you ever been in a relationship? A serious one."
"Yes, actually. Only one, though. It was like a year ago with a guy from one of my classes."
"Not totally innocent after all."
"Haha, very funny. You know, I don't even know why I still bother walking to school with you. It's not worth it."
"You just need to see this beautiful face every morning."
"Yeah, sure. That must be it."
"Are you blushing again?"
"That's it. I'm done."
"What are you going to do, ignore me?"
"..."
"I'll take that as a yes."
