I also know how you prefer to eat at home than at a noisy restaurant because the music’s always too loud and you hate the sound of other people’s chewing. I know that you think buying flowers is a waste of money because they die so quickly but on the flip side you feel bad for the ones that don’t get picked, which is why I asked the florist to send the rest of the flowers that didn’t get sold today.
I’ve been observing Delilah for years, noticing all the little things about her, and learned even more about her over the past year. She just hadn’t realized it or maybe she wasn’t paying attention until now.
Delilah
Jesus. I’m not sure who’s crazier. Me for thinking flowers have feelings or you for validating flowers have feelings.
Wilder
At this rate, I think we’re both crazy. But I think you’ve made me crazier than my normal crazy.
Delilah
Pretty sure you’re the one who’s made ME crazy.
Wilder
Hopefully that means I get home field advantage from all those other losers lined up, right?
Delilah
Or it means you’re too cocky to realize you still have to practice for the big game.
Wilder
Wait…are we talking about sex or football?
She sends back an eye roll emoji with a bull’s-eye.
Now she’s fucking with me.
Wilder
Truthfully, my plan was to take you out someplace quiet to celebrate not being behind bars, but I’m officially grounded to the property unless I have therapy or community service.
Delilah
Your parents are pretty pissed, huh?
Wilder
Definitely not on the pleased with me side. But until this blows over, I have to stay away from the guests, which means I’m stuck on the ranch only side.
Delilah
That’s not too bad. At least you get to work and stay busy.
Wilder
Except they gave Landen my job, so now I’m doing his.
Delilah
You mean…
She sends a squirting emoji with a hand gesture.
