Jacob, to Nathaniel
[Accident? How the fuck is that an accident?]
Accident? Yeah right the only way he could think the other male had gotten ahold of his number was either one of his own siblings on purpose OR the guy had actually pulled a fast one. Probably on John seeing as he'd have been the easiest to do that shit to. Especially if he'd been drunk arguing with or boning that weird bitch. Eyes slightly rolling Jacob pocketed the phone and moved to push back beneath the truck he was currently working in just outside the front of the old hotel and resort he'd most recently set up as base.
[I wish I could give you an answer to that], Nathaniel typed back, equally nonplussed. He had woken up to a Post-It on his phone with a number that said "Text Me!" and, like an idiot, had followed directions. He sent a picture of the Post-It now to the number.
[Does that answer your question? & No, that's not my handwriting.]
[Wtaf that's kinda creepy] Jacob sent back after seeing the sticky note. Who the hell thought they were being funny? Now back out from under the truck he studied the writing for a moment longer before deciding he had no idea who's it actually was.
He's a creepy guy, but he grows on you] was Nathaniel's response. He knew exactly who had (probably) hacked into something-or-other to get this number for him.
[Assuming his intention was for me to ask you out, you'd say...?]
[You say that like I know who your ass is talking about and out? Like on a date? Or you wanna hold hands at the park? Gonna buy me flowers N8 the G8?! π€£]
Jacob hit send and sort of rolled his eyes. Just when he'd thought he'd heard it all though most of the time people were more blunt. Either straight up asking to fuck or saying something more along the lines of wanting to get to know him. MOSTLY he turned them down though he had on occasion gone for the ones who just wanted sex because well? Who didn't need to get off once in awhile.
[Yes, on a date. I was thinking more like the zoo or the aquarium. Maybe dinner & a movie. I don't hold hands on the first date, but play your cards right & sex isn't necessarily off the table. What kind of flowers do you like?] Nathaniel sent back, a little cheekily. He could be a bit of a brat sometimes, but hell with it, this guy was being sarcastic too.
Another hour or so passed before Jacob finally remembered to check his phone. Unlocking it while he sat outside on top of one of the dog cages watching some of his guys work he rolled his eyes at what he'd gotten back. Was this guy for real? He honestly wasn't sure anymore.
[I literally work with animals on a daily so how bout no. Movies is the lamest choice out there and fucking please don't buy me flowers or I'll strangle you with them shithead. Now come up with something actually entertaining and I might consider it.] He hit send he shook his head and moved to hop off the cage as he spotted two guys a bit roughly unloading a Bob cat. "Bitch how about I throw you in there and shake you the fuck around??!!" He boomed which quickly got them out of the way sense they certainly didn't put that threat past him.
Nathaniel frowned as he read the text. He was one for the classics, and was completely stumped by this. He typed out the first few suggestions that came to mind:
[Faire? Festival? Carnival? Museum? Planetarium? Shooting range? Look, I'll level with you. I don't know how to flirt with guys. My first boyfriend and I got together after he put me in the hospital, and my second was someone I worked with who my first told me had a crush on me. Before that, in school, I was basically the school bicycle & didn't form meaningful connections. If my suggestions are too girly for you, it's because I'm used to dating girls. What would you recommend?]
