Hope I’m not keeping you from. . .?
Bed
There were a lot of things I couldn’t tell her, but the fact that I’d usually be in bed now wasn’t one of them.
So early?
Depends. Had a long couple of days.
To say the least.
Why don’t you get some sleep then.
I was such a stupid fuck. Why had I initiated the end of our conversation by mentioning bedtime?
You’ll have to let me know how the new winery was.
That might have been presumptuous. After all, I asked for her number just to thank her. But she seemed cool.
Have you been to the Finger Lakes?
She opened the door again for more conversation. Good.
I’m from Monticello, New York. Sure have.
I’ve heard of that.
Probably because it’s not far from Saratoga Springs.
I didn’t want to stop chatting with her. But I didn’t want to keep Zoe from her friends either. Looking back up, I realized she’d never answered my previous message about texting her tomorrow. I didn’t push it.
I watched my phone, waiting.
So, I’ll definitely let you know how the new winery was. Will wait till tomorrow to text since you’ll be sleeping.
No need, text anytime.
What if you’re in the middle of a top-secret mission?”
With her dad career military, I was pretty sure she was teasing. But I played along.
Ah, well. In that case, maybe you shouldn’t text anytime
I smiled at the frown face she sent. And then realized I was smiling at my phone. Not a good sign.
JK. Seriously. Anytime.
10-4, good buddy!
We would say ‘out.’
Alright. Then ‘out.’
LOL. Enjoy the winery.
Will do.
And then nothing. Conversation over.
