Dani’s best friend. You’d like her

XANDER

Maybe you should send me her Instagram handle

ME

Why? So you can fall in love with her on the spot?

XANDER

Oh, shut the hell up. What happened after you ran into her sister?

ME

We’re at Sunset Cove Creamery now. The guy who helped us out was flirting with Dani

XANDER

Somebody sounds jealous

ME

Of course I was jealous. So, I stepped in and told him we were boyfriend and girlfriend

XANDER

Wait, you did what now?

Ugh…doesn’t matter. I’m going to head back to the apartment and make sure that it’s all in one piece

ME

Why? Do you think Gray destroyed the place?

XANDER

Wouldn’t surprise me. Honestly, nothing he does surprises me anymore. Oh, by the way, ignore him when he does stupid shit. He’s trying to make up for the lack of manhood he doesn’t have

ME

Oh, shit

GRAYSON

You want me to beat your ass, Xander?

ME

Hey, look who finally decided to show up

GRAYSON

Sorry, I was taking a shower. I just came back from the gym. Did you know there are places guys can sweat in I never knew about until now?

ME

I had the same thought when Dani and I were walking to Sunset Cove Creamery. Dude, what the fuck is up with this shit?
