SIS WHO IS THAT GUY ON UR INSTA

bumblebea
that's my co-star matthew

wait why?

mango
uh

no particular reason whatsoever

bumblebea
lmao what? do you think he's cute or something??

mango
you might thing im crazy

but okay

and yes, i do find him attractive, very attractive

mango
you know that party you had like two weeks ago??

bumblebea
hold up

wait are you going to talking about matthew and how you guys hung out at my party?

right?

mango
um yes

why??

bumblebea
that fucking IDIOT

wait so he didnt text you?

mango
CAN YOU PLS EXPLAIN WHAT TF IS HAPPENING
IM AGING 10 YEARS JUST THROUGH THIS CONVO

bumblebea
my co-star is matthew gray gubler and you two talked at my party, from his accounts at least

he wanted to get in touch with you cause, in his own words "i think she's pretty rad" so i was like "hey, why not help put my older sister's love life?" and i gave him your number :)

also, delaney is directing the movie just in case you didnt know

bumblebea
but it sounds like he hasn't texted you which is weird cause it's been like a week since he asked me for your number

remind me to slap him when i see him again

mango
hold up, recap

you gave him my number already?

he's your co-star for autumn & fox, aka a movie that delaney is directing?

his name is really matthew gray gubler??? i thought it was a stage name- jesus it's so long

bumblebea
yes, yes, and yes marge all of those questions are as true as can be

mango
im both flattered and perplexed

bumblebea
what did you guys even talk about?

mango
just life you know? and we gave each other life advice, it was as if we were on oprah and dr. phil

and hes really attractive, not even gonna lie about that

plus i've sort of been lurking his social media's, but im a wuss and dont have the courage to reach out to him

bumblebea
wait that's so cute awe

and you're 100% sure he didn't text you??

mango
yeah, just checked

bumblebea
why didnt you guys give out your names?? like that's a weird thing to do, considering that you guys probably spoke about suuuuppeeerr personal things

mango
i dont know

i guess we both forgot in the moment. like it was nice to just talk to someone who knew absolutely nothing about you, ya know? plus i think we were a lot more honest by being strangers

bumblebea
i think there's something psychological to it too

like it was just easier and you two thought you'd never see each other again.

it's like the complete opposite of a one-night stand

mango
shit that was deep

bumblebea
how about this, why don't i give you his number??

mango
wait really?

well that was easy

bumblebea
i mean come on, you guys are destined to be together

plus matthew is shit at remembering to text people back. but i have a feeling it will change for you

mango
whoa, okay

no one said we'd fall in love lmao

but yeah, that would be nice. i had this plan b where i'd wait until i gained the courage to dm him.

margo
but we all know that would've taken me 74839 years

bumblebea
sounds fake, but okay

and awe, margo, you have nothing to worry about. mgg is someone who understands and is judge-free! almost eerily similar to another person i know ;))

***-***-**** there's his number :)

mango
thanks, bea! seriously i owe you my life ❤

bumblebea
just remember to name your first born after me :))

mango
oh har har
fuck off beatrice
