H: Whats up?

E: Eating spaghetti, u?

H: Spaghetti?

E: Yeah, you know what Spaghetti is right? :p

H: Lol. Yeah yeah.

H: Just weird.

E: Y?

The reply comes slow.

H: Dunno, just didnt think youd make yourself spaghetti.

E: Well I did. I’m quite the good cook.

H: lol

Ethan waits for more, another slow message.

H: So Green Valley treating you alright?

E: More or less. It’s pretty nice up here all things considered.

H: People there cool?

E: Oh yeah, only person even remotely an asshole is Charlie.

H: Aren't you friends?

E: Yeah, but she’s can be a lot.

Blinking, Ethan’s brain rereads the last few messages. How does she know about Charlie? He’s certain he didn't mention her. Frowning, Ethan’s pretty sure he knows the source.

E: Layla tell you about Charlie?

No dots. Frown deepening, Ethan wonders what the delay is about.

H: Yeah.

Smacking his lips, Ethan looks at that lone word.

E: You two seem to be talking a lot.

H: Mhm

E: You talking right now?

H: We are yeah.

A long moment passes, Ethan not sure what to say to that. Them talking was weird, of that he had zero doubt. What would a twenty year old and forty something year old who’ve never met and live hours away from each other even talk about? What COULD they talk about?

They were talking about him. They had to be talking about him.

While processing that, Ethan notices dots on the screen.

H: Did you sleep with her?

Ethan sits up so fast he almost kicks the chair out from under himself. What the fuck was Layla saying to her?! {if Layla Sex =true}Did she tell her? If Ethan knew Layla was going to tell Heather…{endif}

She was waiting for an answer…
