Lachlan: Fuck. I’m dealing with something. Wait for me.

Dealing with somethingis code for beating the crap out of someone. I picture him holding a man by the throat with one hand and dictating into his phone about a fancy party with the other.

Me: I’ll be all right walking two blocks myself.

Lachlan: I said, wait for me.

Me: I SAID, I can do this. You’re working. I’ll text you when I get to the store.

Lachlan: …

Me: I may be small, but I’m fast.

Lachlan: …

Me: I can leap over someone.

Lachlan: …

Me: And scream pretty loudly. I’ll be fine. I promise.

Lachlan: Aye. Use the credit card I gave you.

I feel like something shifted, and he trusts my judgment.

Lachlan: I want photos from the store.

Me: I said I’ll text you.

Lachlan: I want photos of the dress.

Me: Any requests? Long or short?

Lachlan: Short.

Me: Easy access or challenging?

Lachlan: In between. I like a challenge, but not to the point, I’m tearing it by the seams.

Me: Are you sure?

Lachlan: No, actually I’m not. In fact, not too short either. You’re mine. No one sees what’s mine.

Me: I don’t want anyone to see me the way you do.

Lachlan: …

This may get too deep and dirty, and I have another dance set to run through, but I can’t stop.

Me: Panties or no panties?

Lachlan: Fuck, I think I just killed this guy…

It’s bizarre, but I laugh.

Me: For real?

Lachlan: No comment.
