"You just can't get enough of me, can you? We saw each other the whole day at school, which was half an hour ago."

"You're acting like you didn't text me that you missed me ten minutes after our last date."

"Shit, you got me there."

"I bet you were just waiting for me to call."

"I wasn't."

"I don't believe you, but sure."

"Always so nice, aren't you, El?"

"Oh."

"What? What is it? Did I say something wrong?"

"It's nothing."

"Shit, it's the nickname, isn't it? Sorry, it just slipped."

"It's okay. It's just... Finn always used to call me that, I haven't ever heard it since. It's weird hearing it now, but I kind of like it."

"Oh, okay. I sure know how to make you feel worse, huh?"

"It's not your fault."

"Why don't you just call him sometime? Maybe you two could fix things?"

"I don't know, Piper. I feel like it's too late for that."

"It's never too late. You said yourself that this was your biggest regret. You never know, it could get better."

"I'm kind of scared though. I feel like he has grown so much. Maybe he doesn't even think about me."

"And maybe he's just as scared as you. Maybe he's waiting for you to call. Reaching out to him can't hurt, Ella. If you really were as close as you told me, I'm sure you'll be just fine."

"Hmm, maybe. I'll see."

"Just think about it, okay? I don't like to see you sad over him."

"I'll think about it."

"You know what? I'll come over. Making homework together is a good excuse, don't you think?"

"You just want to cuddle."

"Yes, absolutely."

"Alright, see you soon."

"Bye."
