"Yeah, I should hang up.."

"It's only three am."

"Only? Lottie is already out cold."

"Well, then just me and you."

"You seem interested in this phone call, you creep."

"I'm not the one who remembered a random phone number."

"..Touché."

"Mhm."

"How did your number get out anyways?"

"Probably the girl I gave it to for a project. Might have carved it into the girls bathroom stall."

"That's so cliché."

"Eh. So is this call."

"So is you liking it."

"I never said I did."

"But it's true."

"..."

"Ha."

"What's your name again?"

"Nice try. Like I would ever tell."

"James."

"Eh.. That's a nickname Lottie started calling me in middle school."

"James it is."

"This is so similar to how my parents met, its not even funny."

"Hmm? How'd they meet?"

"My dad called her and ever since then they talked on the phone, hardly ever talking in person."

"Wowzers."

"No one says that anymore."

"I do.."

"I'm tired, Austyn. I'm gonna hang up now."

"Uggghhh. Fine."

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight, James."

"Yeah, don't call me that."
