What’s that supposed to mean?

Jack:

If they hated me, I doubt you would give me the time of day.

Jack:

And I’ll take whatever I can get right now.

Margot:

Jack…I can’t promise I’ll ever be able to give you more than a casual friendship.

Jack:

I know, Princess…and I will happily take just this forever, as long as I get to be in your life.

Margot:

Guess what I just saw an ad for?

Jack:

???

There are literally a million things this could be.

Margot:

You’re no fun.

TheSleeping Beautyballet will be playing in two weeks!

Jack:

I haven’t been to see that in years! We have to go.

Margot:

Let’s do it! I’m free for a Sunday matinee.

Jack:

Say less. I’ll get the tickets.

4?

Margot:

Just two this time, I think.

Jack:

Even better, Princess. I can’t wait. :)

Margot:

Me either :)
