ZEKE: ??

FAYE: Your text was really romantic.

ZEKE: Not everyone possesses my textual prowess

ZEKE: Can I sing “I’m on a Boat” when we board?

FAYE: Yes. Along with every other drunk guy in attendance.

ZEKE: I’m not drunk

FAYE: My mistake

ZEKE: I forgot to ask if Aly is okay?

FAYE: ???

ZEKE: You know, after the whole trapped on a boat with her crush thing…

FAYE: Nothing happened. And even if it did, we are not speaking of it.

ZEKE: Understood.

ZEKE: Okay if I text Lex though?

FAYE: We are not speaking that name in this house

FAYE: (from the backyard) Don’t ask, don’t tell

ZEKE: Understood

ZEKE: Girl question for you

ZEKE: Do you want a guy to end things as soon as he knows it’s not going anywhere? Or try to make it work, and then end things?

FAYE: I want a guy to not text another woman and ask her how to break up with me

ZEKE: Ouch

FAYE: Dick move, genius. Megan doesn’t deserve that.

ZEKE: Double ouch

ZEKE: So, where does that land me on my question

FAYE: I’m not answering it.

ZEKE: why not?

FAYE: Because I’m not that girl
