The Love Machine:
Right? He’s so ungrateful. You’re offering your services and he just dismisses them and takes them for granted. so sad
Sounds like the two of you are the ones who don’t have a life without ME!
The Love Machine:
There he is!!!!
The Holy One:
Welcome back.
The Love Machine:
LOL. Calm down, man. We’re just busting your chops. But also, where the fuck have you been? I feel like we have literally not heard a peep out of you since we left school. I know we’ve all been busy relocating and getting our shit together, but still…. You’ve been totally MIA not just from socials, magazine covers, news headlines, but from our group chat? Dude, come on. That’s really not cool. What’s got you distracted? A piece of ass?
The Holy One:
That must be some unicorn pussy-ass combo if that’s the case. Diva’s never let any chick distract him beyond his two-second-pump.
I think this has been a great little break for us and gives us all the opportunity to find new friends. Especially best friends. It’s been nice knowing you two. Nic, Nikolas, have a great life.
The Holy One:
Omfg I’m dying. You need a new nickname, you’re no longer the Diva but the Drama Queen. Get a load of this guy Love-bug!
The Love Machine:
Asshole, stick to your day job. Don’t be applying for any jobs at Hallmark because you suck at poetry and nicknames. Don’t EVER fucking call me Love-bug again!
The Holy One:
I can’t help it if I overheard Christy SCREAM “Love-bug” from inside that broom closet during graduation. Oh man, that one will never get old.
Well, as fun as this has been. I got shit to do. Stay out of trouble - both of you.
The Love Machine:
I make no promises. The ass down here is fresh and voluptuous, and it’s begging for my Lovvvvving! I have already tasted the sweet nectar and can’t wait….
That’s enough
The Holy One:
I’m too far away to bail you out of jail on the jif, so you might want to calm down with all those extracurricular activities, bro.
The Love Machine:
But I got so much love to give!
Knowing that the two of them would now bicker back and forth over bail money and chasing tail, I turned my screen to black and put it on silent.
The overwhelming feeling of guilt washed over me.
I’d betrayed my two best friends in the world after all. And then I’d lied to them - time and again. I took all of our dreams away.
Well, not entirely. We were still playing in the pros and got some of the best deals in our draft class. So I mean, it’s notthatbad.
