Hunter: Thank you.
Emma: Where's your date?
Hunter: A restaurant.
Emma: Which one?
He sends the name of a casual Italian restaurant by the promenade.
Hunter: We're doing dinner and a movie.
Emma: Whose idea was that?
Hunter: Why? Is it too obvious for you?
Emma: Kinda, yeah.
Hunter: You shouldn't speak so ill of Alice.
Emma: I shouldn't?
Hunter: She has great tits.
My cheeks flush with some mix of nerves and anger. He's trying to get a rise out of me.
He's trying to make me jealous.
I think.
Emma: And when are you and Carpe Diem seizing the night?
Hunter: That's carpe noctem.
Emma: An answer?
Hunter: Tomorrow. After work.
Emma: Good to know.
Hunter: When will you be home?
Emma: Late.
Hunter: Approximately?
Emma: Nine or ten.
Hunter: You have dinner plans?
Emma: I'll work it out.
Hunter: Em.
Emma: Yeah?
Hunter: That place closes at six.
Emma: And?
