after what happened today.
And that you’re cool with it.
Aww… it was kinda cute they were checking in on me! It wasn’t something they normally did. Then again, the guys had never sprung anything this big on me before. So…
It’s all good in the hood.
No harm, no foul.
I cringed a little at my own cheesiness, but I wanted to keep it lighthearted. I was never any good at texting, especially not as much as other people. I found it easy to misinterpret things and hard to convey mood. Besides, face to face was so much better.

I know I’m awesome, but it’s always fun to hear.
You guys aren’t too bad yourselves.
It was lame, but it was the best I could do. What else can a girl say to being called awesome?
I watched the screen a little more, and nothing happened. After two minutes, I had to assume our little conversation was over. Shit, it was kind of a relief. I never knew when to end these things anyway.
