Margot:

????

Jack:

This guy. Blond. Tall. Skinny like a string bean.

Margot:

You used to call me string bean. Was that an insult??

Jack:

Don’t play dumb and try to deflect, Margot. Who is this asshole?

Margot:

I’ve hugged a lot of guys in my time, Jack. I didn’t post anyone. He must have tagged me. Sometimes I forget how old you are and that you don’t understand how Instagram works.

Jack:

That’s twice now you’ve just gone off to party with people I don’t know, Princess. It’s like you want to piss me off.

Margot:

Maybe I do.

Maybe I was told bad girls get spankies. And maybe I want spankies, Jack.

Jack:

Jesus Christ, Margot. When are you coming back to NYC?

I had meetings in the city today, and I had hoped to see you.

Margot:

:( If you had told me, I wouldn’t have come to Miami.

Jack:

This is why you should stay where I know where you are at all times, Princess. Then I can make sure to come see you at the right time.

Margot:

But one good thing did come out of this trip. Look at how nice my tan is in my new bikini!

Jack:

I’m going to spank your ass raw for letting anyone else see you like that, baby girl.

Margot:

Anyone *else* huh? ;)

Jack:

Anyone*
