Not weird at all!
I’m so glad I applied.
The read receipt is almost immediate, and the three dots start to load right away.
Tatum
Did you make it home safe?
Me
Yes, and with goodiessecured!
I snap a picture of my Chinese food and hit send before I can overthink it.
Tatum
Oh yum!
Then I get an immediate picture response, and it’s of her cookie on a napkin sitting on her lap. I’m quick to type out my response.
Me
Now, all you need is some milk
Why am I this giddy over texting? It’s been years since I’ve been enamored with my phone because of who’s on the other end of it. Now here I am, waiting for a text like a goddamn teenager. And add to it, it’s with my soon-to-be boss… or hot-as-fuckboss, I might add.
Tatum
Don’t worry, I’ve got the milk covered
Hahaha just kidding… maybe
Oh my god, her fucking breast milk… the cherry emoji? Is she flirting with me?
She is, isn’t she?!
What do I do…? How do I play this cool? This is the hottest woman I’ve ever seen, and she’s flirting with me!
Cue the screaming and running around my apartment.
I can’t leave her waiting too long; she’s going to think she’s scared me off, and that’s the last thing she’s done.
Me
You do, don’t you
I don’t know what demon has taken over my body, but they’re steering the ship that is me in this moment. And immediately, my phone vibrates withanother text. I look down, but it’s not just a text—it’s a picture—of her tits.
Tatum
Yep. And I do need to pump real quick to relieve some pressure… I’m an overproducer.
Me
So plenty of milk for cookies AND sharing.
I hope I didn’t overstep there, but I’m quick to release the breath I didn’t know I was holding when the next message pops up.
