Jaxon

What can I do to prove it to you, little sparrow?

Me

Write my name on a piece of paper with today’s date and hold it up to your face.

I wait a few minutes, setting my phone down because at this point this man has me hanging on his every word, and I don’t want to get too attached too quickly.

Jaxon

Here you go babe.

*picture*

Though I’d much rather prove it by taking you out on a date.

Me

OK, so you’re definitely the real deal. Good to know.

Jaxon

Are we not going to talk about what happened earlier today?

Me

I’d actually prefer that we didn’t. I was drunk and clearly didn’t know any better.

Jaxon

Oh Melody, but I gave you one of the best orgasms of your life without even touching you.

That’s definitely something we should talk about.

Me

Ugh, OK yes, I won’t disagree with you. But I don’t remember any of it, so according to those rules, I actually haven’t experienced an orgasm by you yet.

Was I poking the bear? Maybe yes, but let’s see what he has to say for himself. I am somewhat relieved that he’s real, but where do we go from here? There is obviously physical attraction. Do we go out on dates? I don’t know how to navigate dating life, it’s been too long since I’ve done this whole getting to know someone thing.

Plus there’s the fact that I have a stalker, AKA my attacker. I don’t want anyone else getting hurt because of me. What if he goes after the people I care about… I probably shouldn’t pursue anything with Jaxon just yet.

Jaxon

Is that so, little sparrow?

Well, we need to rectify that, and soon.

Can I take you out? Get to know you?

Me

Ya know, I’m not sure it’s the best idea right now. I have a lot going on in my personal life and I’m not sure I’m ready for anything that requires commitment.

Jaxon

Fair enough, Melody.
