SAM

I can’t believe the girlfriend title isn’t getting me anywhere. That’s cruel.

ME

You tormented me for the past year. You get a taste of your own medicine.

SAM

Not the same! I didn’t know! You’re tormenting me on purpose.

ME

When can I see you?

SAM

You’re just changing the subject. I see right through your tricks, menso.

But soon, I hope.

ME

Tonight?

SAM

Aren’t you flying to DC after the game tonight?

ME

Shoot. Yes. I forgot.

SAM

You forgot your own schedule?

ME

You make me forget everything but you.

SAM

I’m really really not used to this dynamic yet.

ME

What dynamic?

SAM

The openly flirting dynamic.

ME

I’ll double down so you get used to it faster.

SAM
