----- FaceTime to Mitch -----
"Hey," Mitch greets, his face showing heightened relaxation likely brought on by the remnants of a good high.
"Hello my friend, what are you up to today?" I smirk back at his hazy-eyes smile.
"Well, Sarah and I plan to stay in and try out this new"- an arm smacks him from the side of the screen, and it is then that I realize he is shirtless, and in bed, and Sarah is not visible though I know she is there.
"Were you two just in the middle of fucking?" Mitch just nods and I scoff, "and you answered my FaceTime?"
Sarah speaks from offscreen for now obvious reasons. "In his defense we finished a while ago, just haven't gotten round to getting out of bed."
"Can you two focus, please." I ask, hoping that they're able to give me some solid advice, or I'll have to defer to Gemma.
I see Sarah slipping on a tank top as she sides into the frame. "So what are we focusing on?"
"I'm taking Nola on a drive tomorrow. Actually we have the whole day together, so I need to make a plan."
"You taking the Rover? I assume the girls are coming?" Sarah asks as Mitch plays with the end of her long brown hair, hyper-focused on it. Yup, he's high.
I rub the back of my neck. "Nope. The girls are actually with Luke's parents."
"Shit. So, it's just the two of you?" Sarah says as Mitch checks back into the conversation.
"I have a plan for first thing in the morning. But, then I want to take her for a drive and I don't know where to go that we won't be bothered or photographed."
"Have you warned her about that?" Mitch asks.
"No. I'm going to avoid people for this drive."
"Maybe you should put Jeff on damage control, jut in case." That's actually not a bad idea.
"Take her to Pinnacle." Sarah suggests.
"You think she'd like that?"
"Yes. It's a nice drive, and it's private, plus theres a really good chance you'll end up naked in the water if you play your cards right." I'm not going to lie. The thought crossed my mind, but hearing someone else say it out loud makes it sound like an even better idea.
"So, should I tell her to bring a swimsuit?"
"Fuck, no!" Mitch shouts. " I get the feeling that a Neighbor Nola is up for a good time once you get her to let loose."
"That's the challenge. How do I get her to let loose?"
"I don't know, man. YOU'RE Harry Styles. Use your special powers."
I roll my eyes at his dumb suggestion. "Not helpful, Mitchell."
Sarah pushes Mitch out of the screen."Just pack a picnic, and towels. Figure out the rest as you go."
