Chapter 11

I just thought I would inform you that your selfish hopefulness has played out to your flavour

*fav0r

*f a v o u r

And I just thought you should know

Shit, I already said that

Good night, mystery man

With her face stuffed, and more wine consumed, (because she needed more) she got ready for bed when her favourite shows could no longer hold her interest. Before she plugged in her phone, she felt bold, thanks to the extra liquid courage coursing through her veins and sent her mystery misfit a message, or a few, trying to match his energy from his earlier texts.

She instantly regretted it.

"You have zero cool," she moaned out loud.

While reaching for her char ger, her phone lit up with a message.

Misfit_138

I wish I could say I'm sorry to hear, but I would be lying

Are you drunk?

Misfit_138 changed their username to Mystery_Man

Did I wake you? It's really late, I wasn't expecting you to answer. If I did, I'm so sorry!

Maybe. Chances point to 100% yup ??

Nice name change lol

Reply Nice name Change lol ??

I was awake. Had a late night. Glad you texted ??

Busy entertaining all the other women you mysteriously chat with?

"Why would you write that, you stupid stupid woman?" she scolded herself.

So what if I was?

You were on a date with another man tonight ??

Then I would say, cool, good for you…

"Liar."

And I'd use the term "man" loosely

Shit, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have assumed. You had a date with a woman? Or person?

Warlock

On purpose?

Is this you being funny?

You didn't laugh?

Explain

The entire night was embarrassing. Long story short. Meet guy. Had a great night, turned out he was trying to drug me. Boss saved me. I went home

Do you normally bring your boss on dates with you?

Yeah, it's company policy

Now who has the jokes?

??

He happened to be there on a date with my assistant

That sounds messy

Right? If that doesn't work out, it's going to be awkward

For you or your assistant?

For all of us. He's already an asshole. Didn't like me from day one, so if this doesn't work out, it will be bad

We don't like the boss. Got it. Sounds like quite the night

I would get dru nk too ??

Why are you up so late?

Because someone I started talking to was on a date, so I stayed up in case her date turned out to be a warlock or something

And did you get to talk to her?

…all joking aside, I'm only talking to you

Why?

I mean…

I'm a one-girl-at-a-time kinda guy. You have my attention, so I don't want to talk to anyone else

You're also hot ??

Saying that…I don't need you to stop talking to other men

Is that a weird kink or something?

lol…no. I like to talk to someone for a while before I meet, so if you match with someone in the meantime, you should go for it

…ok…

"What kind of man is okay with a woman dating other men?" she said to her phone. "Wasn't this a chapter in that book where they explain if a guy is doing this, he isn't into you or something?"

Did I say something wrong?

No, I'm just tired and I need to call it a night.

Goodnight ??

Instead of responding she plugged her phone in and turned in for the night. She had enough weirdness for one evening.
