It's funny, just trust me.
Written one line (ish) at a time by two bored humans in an English class.

I Crash You
[NOTE: ICY HAD COMPLETED THE HEAVY EDITING CREAM, PLEASE INFORM ME IF THERE'S STILL ANY MISTAKE. THANKS] Lynx Farren had always acted base on her impulse instead of her logic, mostly leading to the worst out of the worse decision a human can make in any circumstances that she gets, even to the most trivial things. She didn't exactly has a sweet little mouth for no reason either, contradictory to her childish trait. She now worked in a tiny office due to an unfortunate 'small' event that causes a huge effect on her careers path. One day, she met this hot guy on a blind date and happens to meet him a few more times randomly here and there. ~~~ "Baby.. I can't believe it's you." I touched his biceps. Ouch, they were thicc. "I still couldn't get over you. Please, let me explain. It was a misunderstanding. It really was. Give me a chance." I pleaded emotionally. I know I'm a great actress but right now I only need one more thing. Get out tears, get the fucking out, please. "Excuse me?" His eyebrows quirked. "Oh, it must've been hard for you. It was too much. I know, I know it's still a traumatic event for you. But calm down, please, let me explain." He opened his mouth, and nah. Before he could utter any word, I proceeded with my monologue drama. "Okay, what about we talked about it at your place? Where we first kissed, spend the night, making love, all of our memories of love were held." Finally! There, slided my masterpiece, my crystal clear crocodile friggin tears. I drew back my hand. ~~~ Note: It's all about the progress. A weirded out 1st champion of humor/comedy in The Life Elements Awards. Warning: full of swear words, because - she likes it.Complete

My social worker always forgot to call me Wilbur and I stopped correcting him a while back.' He replied, choosing to ignore the feeling of anxiety at the realisation that was the most he had talked throughout their meeting. 'Alright mate. Oh, and please call me Phil. Sir makes me sound older than I actually am.'
