Sounds good.

IAN

Great!!! Do you have any special requirements?

DINO DADDY

No.

IAN

Awesome. See you tomorrow!!!!!

I might have gone a tad overboard on the exclamation points, but I don’t even care. This is the first text message I’ve recieved from someone who isn’t a delivery driver in eons and that is exciting.

Rex, you just got a new bestie.

CHAPTER THREE

REX

BRANDED IAN

I know you said you didn’t have any food aversions, but I just want to check you like burgers? I make my own burger sauce, that is delicious, but I want to know your thoughts on pickles? Some people are pickle eaters and some are pickle givers. Are you a giver or receiver?

REX

I’m a top if that’s what you’re asking.

BRANDED IAN

Holy moly

I mean, that’s great. I kind of assumed that with you being all big and powerful. Hm, that’s kind of rude of me. I shouldn’t send that.

What? I said don’t send.

You know what, Siri, you are being really unhelpful right now.

And Rex has seen all of these stupid messages he is going to think. I am unhinged.

WHY DID YOU ADD A PERIOD THERE!

I am going to go walk into a volcano now.

Why are you telling me the distance to Mount Hood?

Um, I had some technical issues there, so if you could ignore all of that I would be eternally grateful.

REX

I enjoyed every message.

See you tonight.

I throw my phone down on the bed and flopping myself down.
