Skye
My friends all told me I shouldn’t text you…
Skye
But I’m doing it anyway.
Skye
I can’t stop thinking about you—
Skye
The one with you, me, the empty auditorium…
Scott
And just what made me so memorable?
Skye
Your tongue for one 😛
Scott
You mean my smooth way with words? 😉
Skye
Mmm, not exactly what I was thinking.
Skye
I could, but wouldn’t it be more fun if you came over and figured it out for yourself?
Scott
What about your friends?
Skye
I don’t need their permission.
Skye
They don’t like that you never texted after the reunion. It’s been two months—
Skye
But I could’ve reached out too. So how about it? Come over?
Skye
Seriously? Forget it. This was a mistake.
Scott
Yeah, but only because I’m not who you think I am…
Skye
What are you talking about?
Scott
I’m not the guy from the auditorium. You have the wrong number.
Skye
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
Scott
That’s what she said.
Scott
Well, it’s a little funny 😉
Skye
How could you let me go on like that?
Skye
Talking about that night, your tongue, inviting you over…
Scott
Your text came out of nowhere, I was trying to figure out if I knew you.
Scott
What if we had a night of hot, mind-blowing sex?
Scott
What if for months, all you could think about was the way I held you up against the wall?
Scott
Maybe your thighs had been wrapped around my waist while you’d been screaming out my name…
Scott
And then I didn’t remember you?
Scott
I just wanted to be sure. I think that makes me a nice guy.
Skye
Yeah? Just how many of these random encounters do you have that you’re so afraid of forgetting?
Scott
Well, I’m easy to look at and relatively charming, if I do say so myself—
Scott
So I’ve had my fair share.
Skye
Of women you’ve ravished in auditoriums?
Scott
Ravished…I like that.
Skye
You didn’t answer the question.
Scott
Okay, the auditorium thing may have tipped me off that you had the wrong number.
Skye
So why didn’t you say anything?
Skye
Why did you keep the conversation going?
Scott
The same reason you’re still texting with me now.
Scott
You could have blocked my number or told me to get lost — but you didn’t.
Scott
You’re still here. You piqued my curiosity…
Scott
And I must have piqued yours.
Skye
Is that all I peaked?
Scott
Ahh, so we’re going there…? 😜
Skye
No. Maybe. No! What am I doing?
Skye
I don’t know why I even wrote that.
Scott
I have a few ideas…
Skye
I don’t know anything about you except that you’re apparently attractive and think you’re good in bed.
Scott
Not think — I know it.
Scott
And if I remember correctly, I never mentioned a bed, although they’re fun too 😉
Skye
Okay, seriously, you could be anyone.
Skye
*I* could be anyone. What would you do if it turned out I was some ninety-year-old grandma texting you?
Scott
Who had a wild night at her reunion and wanted her hookup to come over?
Skye
You know what I mean.
Scott
All right. What do you want to know?
Scott
Yep, I’m an open book.
Skye
I’m going to hold you to that. But for starters, how old are you?
Scott
27. Do I get to ask questions too?
Skye
I guess that’s only fair.
Scott
Okay, how old are you?
Scott
See, we’re already matching up.
Skye
There’s still a lot more to find out.
Scott
I bet you want to know what I look like.
Skye
It’s crossed my mind…
Scott
6’3”, brown hair, green eyes, with a giant dimple in my right cheek and tight abs.
Scott
Want more details? I’m happy to provide.
Skye
You sound kind of fake.
Scott
I’ll take that as a compliment, but I’m not. Promise.
Scott
I can send you a selfie, if you want.
Scott
You know, I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours… 😉
Skye
Don’t think we’re quite there yet.
Scott
I meant a fully clothed one, not that I’d object to the other kind…
Skye
I knew what you meant, but still…
Scott
Okay. Do I at least get a description?
Skye
Dirty blonde hair, just past my shoulders. Currently in a pony tail.
Skye
That’s what he said.
Scott
Ahh, I see what you did there. Is that all I’m going to get?
Scott
Oh, I want much, much more…
Skye
Average height, above average curves.
Scott
Nice. I like when I have something to hold onto. Tell me more.
Skye
Why?! Because I’m describing myself and exchanging fantasies over text with a stranger!
Skye
This isn’t something I’ve ever done before.
Scott
Me neither. And we don’t have to jump to that, we can just talk.
Skye
Why would someone who is, to quote you, “easy to look at and relatively charming…”
Skye
Even want to text with someone they’ve never met?
Scott
I told you. I’m intrigued. YOU intrigue me.
Scott
The only difference between this and meeting on Tinder or randomly in a bar, is that THIS is unexpected.
Scott
I like that. It feels like kismet.
Skye
Don’t tell me you’re a romantic.
Skye
I can’t believe I’m doing this with a stranger.
Scott
That’s why we’re getting to know each other—
Scott
Just think of the story it will make.
Skye
I don’t even know your name.
Scott
That can be fixed. It’s Caleb.
Skye
Yes. You said you’d answer anything. Caleb what?
Skye
Oh. My. God. You’re *that* Caleb.
