Matt: Morning, beautiful.
Matt: How was the not a date date?
Anah: Bad news, Honey Bun.
Anah: Brenton and I clicked, and there was this firework party in my stomach, and the chemistry was just so incredible. It was instant and I’m sorry to have to break it to you, but…
Anah: We eloped.
Anah: I’m now Anah Lewis. Sorry.
Matt: That was a great story.
Matt: But we both know it’s complete bull.
Anah: Worth a shot, I guess.
Matt: Did he try anything with you?
Anah: Not even a goodnight kiss… Can you believe that?! I’m kinda disappointed.
Matt: Come again?
Anah: I thought he would at least try to get to first base.
Anah: Maybe he’s gay.
Matt: You’ve heard the stories about him. Brenton Lewis is not gay.
Matt: Wait… did you want to go to first base with him?
Anah: Gross. No. I just wanted to kick him in the balls.
Matt: That’s my girl.
Matt: While we’re on the subject of you being my girl...
Anah: Ok… well. Here goes.
Anah: I love you. I’m just gonna put it out there… again. I love you. You don’t have to say it back, or whatever. But… yeah. God, I hope you love me too… or at least you could one day. I’d hate it if this was totally one sided.
Anah: Because I love you.
Anah: I mean… I real-
Matt: SHUT UP!
Matt: You talk way too much, Babe.
Matt: You done?
Anah: Uh… yeah?
Matt: Great. Now just sit there and listen. I know that’s gonna be hard but… patience is a virtue.
