". . .and as always he was being an ass and I was so close-- Audrey are you even listening?"

"Huh? Yeah sure I am. . ."

[A ruffling sound is heard from Justin on Audrey's line]

"Hey, sweetheart?"

". . .Mhhm?"

"Petal?"

". . . Yes Justin?"

"I just want to say I love you"

[Audrey crashes and falls on the mess she was trying to ward through, her heart pounded in her chest. She was not expecting to hear those words from Justin at all.]

"WHAAT?!"

"Well that got you to listen."

"Don't do that asshole. I nearly had a heart attack."

"You're exaggerating, at least it got you to listen. What the heck were you doing?"

"Uh. . .nothing. . .I was just looking for my nickel."

"Right. . ."

"What's with that tone?"

"Nothing petal. I believe you"

"Whatever. What's your favorite color?"

"You're so random."

"Just answer the question."

 "I like lime green."

"Really?! That's my favorite color too!"

"Serious?"

"No dude, I was joking."

"So I'm called dude now? Not asshole?"

"You're still an asshole dude."

"Which one are you actually calling me?"

"Both."

"But I only want one!"

"Stop whining little girl, its not good for your hard voice."

"Is that supposed to be a compliment?"

"Do you want it to?"

"I don't know"

"Then I don't know too!"

"Have you realized we go way off topic sometimes?"

"Sometimes?! I say every time."

"Yeah, like we can talk about something and then start arguing creating another topic."

"You're crazy."

"Are you sure we are not talking about you?"

"Haha, hilarious!"

"That's who I am. The funnyman!"

[Audrey bursts out laughing.]

"What?"

"The funny man!"

"What the hell is that?"

"Somebody who is always making people laugh."

"That's a comedian."

"Uh. . .well this is something different."

"Oh yeah? Then please do elaborate great one."

"The. . .um, funnyman makes people laugh unintentionally without meaning to in a completely natural way while a comedian does the opposite."

". . .You just made that up didn't you?"

"Busted."

"You're so weird."

"I know sweetheart, that's why you like me, for my weirdness!"

"And who told you that lie?"

"Ouch. . .right in the heart."

"You have one?"

"Funny."

"You've been repeating that word for quite some time now."

"That's because it's the word of the day!"

"Word of the day?"

"I believe that's what I said, grandma. I get to say a word I chose for the day for at least three times."

"You're bored aren't you?"

"Very."

"I noticed. . .where are your friends?"

"They're all doing different things this weekend."

"What about you?"

"I'm planning on just chilling in the house, eat and sleep."

"Why don't you do anything?"

"Don't feel like it."

"What about your parents?"

". . ."

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked that."

"It's fine."

"No, I shouldn't stick my nose where it doesn't belong, I can't do that because we aren't friends."

"It's fine petal, I thought we were friends."

"I thought we weren't with the number of insults we give each other."

"Oh, can I at least boost it up to acquaintances?"

"Done that past that. We are more like people who can tolerate each other through insults."

"Well said."
