Don’t uproot your schedule to come find me.

SUTTON

Too late. Already out the door. Where. Are. You?

LAKE

Ugh…I’m at Reber Hall. First floor.

SUTTON

Listen to this while you wait. Music slows your heart rate and reduces cortisol. Just try to focus on something else until I get there.

SUTTON

*sent Lake playlist*

LAKE

What is this?

SUTTON

We never talked about music taste, but I…kind of just made this for you.

LAKE

You made me a playlist?

SUTTON

Of songs that remind me of you. So, if they’re not your style, I promise I won’t take any offense.

LAKE

I remind you of songs?

SUTTON

You ask a lot of questions.

LAKE

I just…nobody has ever made me a playlist before.

SUTTON

I’m honored I get to be the first.

LAKE

These all seem surprisingly sweet. I think you give me way too much credit.

SUTTON

Not at all. I know the real you, Lake. Not the version you put on for your mom, for school, for protests. You’re a big softie inside. You’re emotional and sensitive and really fucking cool.
