Stop Texting Me
by Francesca Cavallo
Cool dress last night, lady! A little provoking, if you ask me.
Where were you?
Saw you at Frankie’s play last night!
Yeah? Didn’t see you! Why not come and say hello?
Didn’t want to intrude… saw you were in good company!
Who? Martha?
Don’t know, blonde chick with ostensive makeup…
That’s Martha, my best friend!!!
If you say so…
You’re naughty!
There are people who’d say ‘naughty’ doesn’t quite cover it…
Woo! Hey, how would I know? You don’t even stop to say hi when you meet me!
Yeah, yeah…
Or *maybe* you’re just asking me to connect you and Martha!
Now you caught me! I’m naughty and devious… She’s hot! Is she seeing someone?
Very funny…
Oh yeah, I get that a lot. The whole thing of seducing a girl by making her laugh? I practically invented it, baby.
Did you just use the word “seducing”?
It’s technically a verb, but yes, your honor.
Does that mean you’re trying to seduce me?
Woah, dude. You’re going too fast! I was speaking in general terms.
Oh ok, I see.
That doesn’t mean you should lose hope! I actually encourage you to entertain the fantasy of the two of us together.
Who knows, it may come true!
Yeah, it “may”! But I suspect you like to talk too much…
Let the record reflect an insinuation of sexual nature in Grace Truman’s statement.
You see? You’re deflecting.
What would you like me to do, ma’am? Your wish is my command.
Why don’t you come here?
Are you challenging me, ma’am?
I guess I am.
Because you know I live close by, it would take me 5 short minutes to come and rip you apart.
In fact, I’m wondering what are you waiting for?
There may be tons of reasons, mademoiselle.
One of the reasons could be that I have a lady over and can’t quite abandon her in my maison.
Yeah, right! So you’re texting with me and you have another girl over. You’re so full of shit!
Language, Ms. Truman! Language!
I love to curse. One of the 10 million things that you’ll never find out about me…
So, let’s assume I send this poor girl home and give my Thursday night an unexpected turn…
What would kind of secrets would I uncover about you, young lady?
Mmm… let’s see…
A weird passion for bridal lingerie…
Uhm, tying my shoe-laces…
The cheesiest romantic playlist you’ve ever listened to…
Does is include at least an unplugged Celine Dion?
More than one.
I’m sweating.
An impressive collection of badass bourbon bottles.
Ok. Girl is out. Give me a minute to collect my dirtiest sex toys and I’ll be on my way.
You mean “dirty” in a figurative way I hope.
Actually, I was being literal. This is one of the one million things you’re going to find out about ME!
I never wash my sex toys!
Ew! I don’t ever want to see them!
Don’t worry, I’ll blindfold you (it’s one of my favorite games, thanks for asking!)
No! Stop it! I just want you, no sex toys.
That could be a problem.
You’re serious?
Damn serious.
I’m not sure I can come without my toys.
I mean go…
Both actually!
Oh come on! I already got in my white babydoll…
Woman, thou shalt be the most perilous of all temptations!
C’mon Ulysses… can’t you hear the siren’s calling?
Can’t but answer to your calling, siren… open your door if you got the guts.
a little bit later
Why are you pointing at my phone?
Do you mean you want us to keep texting?
Yep, no talking.
Uhm… OK!
What do you have in mind?
I’d like you to dance to your cheesy playlist, would you do that for me honey?
I’d love to.
Would you like something to drink while you watch me?
Hell yes. A bourbon on the rocks would be perfect.
I’ll fix it for you, sit on the couch and enjoy the wait.
Make it short, that bridal babydoll of yours is making this wait pretty hard on me.
Be patient, girl…
There you go…
I can’t fucking believe you started your sexy playlist with Ne-Yo’s Sexy Love!!!
Now you gotta come on my lap as the girl in the video!
Wait and see what I got for you!
This was fantastic! A+ Miss Truman.
I think for unplugged Celine we should probably move things in the other room… what do you think?
If you insist…
