Ha. It actually looks great. We’re all passed out in the family room now, full of Mom’s mac and cheese and Dad’s wine.

(11:52 PM)

Lying in bed wishing you were here.

CHARLOTTE (11:52 PM)

Wish I was there too. *blowing kiss emoji*

ELLIOT (11:54 PM)

There’s a drain pipe right outside the window. Maybe you could shimmy up on Saturday night when everyone’s in their drunken sleep.

CHARLOTTE (11:54 PM)

Or you could shimmy down.

ELLIOT (11:54 PM)

There’s definitely going to be some sort of shimmying required.

CHARLOTTE (11:55 PM)

Going to sleep now. Max wants to go through some things early tomorrow before he heads up your way.

ELLIOT (11:55 PM)

Sleep tight. *sleeping face emoji*

Shimmy shimmy.

Friday, Aug 15th

CHARLOTTE (10:04 AM)

Do you think Max knows?

ELLIOT (10:04 AM)

No. Why?

CHARLOTTE (10:05 AM)

He just left to head up to you guys, and he asked if I wanted to leave now and go with him.

ELLIOT (10:05 AM)

Why does that make you think he knows?

CHARLOTTE (10:05 AM)

The way he said it.

ELLIOT (10:05 AM)

Which was how?

CHARLOTTE (10:06 AM)
