Getting warmed up for when I beat you.

Me

You should delete my number.

This won’t end well for you.

Avery

I can always message you on Instagram. Or TikTok. Or YouTube.

Me

Stalking me, Sinclair?

Fuck, I like knowing your last name. It makes taunting you even more fun.

Oh, shit. You said you were a beauty queen. I’m going to look up videos of you in your dresses.

Avery

Go ahead. I’m not ashamed of that part of my life, and it was an honor to serve as Miss Florida.

Just so you know, Duncan, I’m planning on winning this bet.

Which means I have to play the long game. I’m going to annoy you until you give up.

Me

You found out my last name, I see. Did you finally look me up?

Avery

Yeah, and I should’ve done it years ago.

Congrats on the Robotics win in tenth grade, by the way.

I’ll be back at lunchtime with another rendition of the Thunderhawks tune. Tell me, do you prefer the original or the remix?

Me

You’re insufferable. Don’t you have a speech to give?

Avery

You didn’t think I was insufferable the other night when you were on top of me.

Me

Just like you didn’t hate me when I was making you come.

Funny how that works.

I manageto avoid seeing Avery the second day of the conference.

It takes careful planning, eating lunch in my room and sitting in on a conversation about ticket sales software instead of marketing tips and tricks, but I get through the afternoon without running into her.
