Would it make me look like less of a man to say I miss you already?

From: [email protected]
Subject: An answer
Maybe a little. ;)

From: [email protected]
Subject: A justification
Then I must not be much of a man because I miss you like crazy. Your voice, your smell, your laugh.

My ass, my tits, my mouth?

From: [email protected]
Subject: Another answer
Eating a pint of ice cream and watching HGTV with my sister. I mean, assuming it’s like most Thursday nights.

How would you like to go to the Loft & Barn launch party with me?

Subject: An answer that’s really a question
Really? Are we ready for that?

Subject: A concern
I think so. I’m worried about Charlene though.

Subject: An assurance
Oh, she won’t be there. This is just the company execs and the industry folks. Absolutely no middle-managers.

From: [email protected]
Subject: An acceptance
Okay. Sounds like fun. *Deep breath* Pretty sure I don’t have anything to wear to something this fancy though.

From: [email protected]
Subject: An offer
I think I can help you with that.

From: [email protected]
Subject: A raised eyebrow
You have a dress I can borrow?

From: [email protected]
Subject: A silly girl
No, but I have a credit card you can use. Tomorrow. After work.

From: [email protected]
Subject: A firm no
I can’t let you do that.

From: [email protected]
Subject: A protestation
Why not? You know I can afford it. And besides, I want to spoil you. I like seeing you happy and you deserve to be able to wear something special.
* * *
From: [email protected]
Subject: A reluctant yes
Okay. Twist my arm. But only because I really don’t have anything else to wear.
But remind me to check my ass for horseshoes, because I honestly have no idea how I got so lucky as to end up finding someone like you.

I would be more than happy to assist you with this ass inspection. Though I’m pretty sure we won’t find any horseshoes.
You’re not lucky, Hannah — just amazing.
