"Jake, aren't you supposed to be on a basketball bus?"

"I am, doesn't mean I don't want to talk to you."

"Hey! Is that Blaire? HI BLAIRE!"

*Fumbling noises*

"Hello?"

"So mysterious phone girl that Jake does nothing but talk about, we finally meet."

"Haha, you're Lee I'm presuming?"

"The one and only."

"Well it's lovely to meet you."

"You as well. Maybe I'll stop by and introduce myself in person sometime."

*Background shouting*

"Oof. Sorry Blaire, but Jake looks like he's about to have a coronary caused by me speaking with you, and the rest of the team can only hold him back for so long. With the short time I have left, I just wanted to thank you."

"Thank me? For what?"

"Because Jake was a sarcastic love-fearing mess before he met you, and now, it's all different."

"Different? How?"

*Fumbling noises*

"Looks like I'm out of time. You're gonna have to ask him that yourself. Bye Blaire!"

"What? Okay bye Lee."

"I just want to say that I do not hold myself responsible for anything he may have just told you."

"Don't worryyy it was nothing bad."

"Uh huh, I'm sure."

"Why aren't you chatting with your teammates? You can always call me later."

"Chatting? Oh sorry, should we be playing bridge too? Maybe gossiping about our grandchildren?"

"Fine, let me rephrase. Shouldn't you be bro-ing down with your boys?"

"1) Better, but I'm choosing to look past the snarkiness only because I think it's cute when you get flustered and 2) Lassie, you're silly if you think I would rather be talking to anyone other than you."

"You're too sweet to me Ellinger."

"Don't push it. Let's play a game."

"Well that sounded oddly like a Saw remake. What kind of game?"

"20 Questions."

"Okay. Are there rules?"

"No rhetoricals, and no repeating the person's question. You start."

"Favorite band?"

"Green Day"

"Weak."

"Oh! Third rule, no rude side commentary on the answers to questions. Especially when said answer is under appreciated and completely fantastic.

"Touchy touchy. Okay fair. You go."

"Pancakes or waffles?"

"Waffles. That answer is not up for debate, I simply will not humor any arguments about it."

"And you say that I'm the touchy one. Your turn."

"Have you ever been in love?"

"...Wow. That's pretty deep for 20 questions, don't you think Lassie?"

"That's not an answer. You're stalling."

"Okay okay you caught me."

"So, have you?"

"No, I haven't. But I think I could be soon."
