Mel

Hmm... maybe.

Me

Maybe? Come on, Mel. Don’t leave me hanging.

Mel

Alright. I was also thinking about how good you look in that black shirt you wore last week.

Me

Oh, so we’re objectifying me now?

Mel

Absolutely. You love it.

Me

Guilty. And for the record, I was thinking about you this morning too.

Alright, let’s put it out there.I meant it when I said I’ll give her all the time in the world, but she started this flirting.

Mel

Oh? Do tell.

Me

I was thinking about how you looked the last time we had that late-night movie session. Legs tucked under you, hair everywhere, wearing that oversized hoodie.

Mel

Sexy, huh?

Me

More than you know.

She has no idea. None. And even if I tried to explain it, I’m not sure I’d do it justice. She’s sexy in a way that sneaks up on you and leaves you completely wrecked.

Mel

I might have to test that theory sometime.

Me

Careful, Mel. You’re dangerously close to making me leave work early.

Mel

Is that a threat or a promise?

Me

Depends. Are you home right now?
