Concerning the Workout Partner
Nick: I would be SO happy if you guys ended up falling deeply and irrevocably in love (and had a sex life that made headlines…)
Me: That would make you happy?
Nick: Absolutely. Honestly. I shit you not. I love to see true love. It’s so infectious in its euphoria.
Me: We used the “L” word the other day.
Nick: Lesbian? Lipstick?
Me: Llama.
Nick: Ah.
Me: Though we’ve known each other for about four years now, so it’s a complicated llama.
Nick: That’s the beauty of it: its complexity, depth, and history. Not to mention your significant common ground.
Me: What? You mean sobriety?
Nick: That, plus everything else that emanates from it.
Me: Like the fact that I don’t need poppers when he’s fucking me.
Nick: Um. Yeah.
