“How did Ryan score us this bottle?"

I ask Sadie as she fills our glasses again, the bottle now almost gone.

“I promised him a blow job.” She laughs.

“And don't worry, I have another bottle in my bag, so we're not even close to running out.” I groan as I roll over in my bed, trying not to spill all over my blanket.

“You could have spared me that detail.” She rolls onto her back as well, both of us looking up at my ceiling.

"You know, one day you're going to have to get used to talking about this kind of stuff.” I shake my head.

“Nope.” “Yes.” I feel her eyes on me.

“Because if I'm going to hear all the juicy details of you and Easton, especially what's about to go down in his new apartment, then it's only fair you hear about Ryan.” I wince at the thought.

"Then, can you change his name? Call him Michael or Greg or something, so I don't have to deal with the visual that makes me want to gag?” “You're ridiculous.” “And that's why you love me.” There's a few moments of silence while she takes a drink and then sighs.
