Dessert? That’s quite the commitment. The main course, I get. But the dessert could come thirty minutes after, maybe longer. You’re sure you can hold off that long?

Me

Fuck no.

Sadie

You still want to make that deal then?

Me

Yes.

Sadie

LOL. What are we betting?

Me

I’ll give you anything you want. The reward is meaningless.

Sadie

Anything?

Me

Anything.

Sadie

You’re dangerous, Lockhart.

Me

I think you like that about me.

Sadie

I’m staring into my fridge, wondering what I should bring tomorrownight. Any ideas?

Me

I wouldn’t bring a new pair of panties. I’m starting quite the collection.

Sadie

Sigh. You’re the reason I’m running low.

Me

I’ll buy you hundreds of pairs, don’t worry.

Sadie

It would be interesting to see what you picked out. Color, fabric, that kinda thing. What are your favorites?

Me
