Erik Varg:
I am.
Quinn Cooper:
Your mom seemed to think it was because of me, but I didn’t even know you were planning to visit. Not that I needed to know. You’re definitely allowed to plan your own trips to see your family without telling the random girl you hooked up with once.
Erik Varg:
I’m coming to town for work.
Quinn Cooper:
Oh…
So forget I said anything. Seriously.
Erik Varg:
And I planned for next week because I hoped you’d be off work. Chicago has a school vacation but I wasn’t sure about you guys.
Quinn Cooper:
It’s okay Erik, You don’t need to explain…
I should have realized your mom was kidding.
Or maybe being inappropriately hopeful.
Or something.
Erik Varg:
And I hadn’t figured out how to tell you without coming off like a creep.
Especially after you asked me to leave you alone. But then you started texting me and I thought maybe…
Quinn Cooper:
Maybe what, Erik?
Erik Varg:
Maybe you’d want to see me as much as I want to see you. Again.
Quinn Cooper:
How long are you going to be in town?
Erik Varg:
Fly out Wednesday night,
Fly home Sunday night.
Quinn Cooper:
I’d like that.
