Chapter Text
Here!
I timed the drive
37 minutes from your parking lot to the Haus
Not bad.
Less than it took me to get from Samwell to Boston.
Google Maps swears I-95 is 29 minutes
Except “in current traffic”

Don’t be melodramatic.
I will be melodramatic if I goddamn want to
My boyfriend will be 40 MINUTES AWAY ALL YEAR
Except when I’m not.
I was thinking.
?????
I could buy you a car.
You could not buy me a car.
Oooh. Punctuation. Scary.
![]()
Did you specifically wait until I was not sitting on the other end of the couch to suggest this??
You CANNOT buy me a CAR
Where are you?
I could buy myself a second car.
Isn’t that something professional hockey players are expected to do?
And then I could let you borrow it for the semester.
I’m walking to Annie’s
Ransom texted to say they were running late
I’m pretty sure NHL hockey players are NOT expected to drive a 2009 Honda Civic that was a hand-me-down from their relatives
What are you getting at Annie’s?
Hey Lardo says hi
Hey Lardo :-)
She’s on the bus but I’m talking to her on Twitter
She says when are we meeting them for lunch tomorrow?
My appointment’s done at 10:50 so we can meet whenever after that.
Have she and Shitty decided on a lunch place yet?
I’ll ask
![]()
Second coffee achieved!
More like third.
That iced latte from Wildflour was 20oz.
OMG I did not know I needed a churro latte
BUT NOW I DO @_@
Honey you don’t understand how much caffeinated courage I need today
You do realize this is the first time I have seen
Lardo
Ransom
OR
Holster
Since they found out we were dating

I have, indeed, sent you into a den of wolves.
Oh.
Wait.
![]()
I hate everything about my room
I have decided
:-/
Is there anything we can do about that?
Not unless you have plans to move back into the Haus
We would need a bigger bed.

#truth
I could bring one of the inflatable mattresses up?
You could keep it in your closet.
…![]()
Are you...suggesting what I think you’re suggesting Mr. Zimmermann?
If you won’t let me buy you a car.
I WON’T LET YOU BUY ME A CAR.
I’ll have to be the one driving up to you.
Rather than you coming down to Pawtucket.

OMG
Have you seen these car emoji Jack? They are so adorable!
!!!
Haha. Cute.
I thought you didn’t want to step on Rans and Holster’s toes this year?
I don’t.
But they know I’d be there for you, not as C.
Anyway. Until the end of October no one but the guys living in the Haus could really know I was there. Or at least that I was staying over. So it’s not like I’d hang out at Faber.
:-/
((hugs))
I guess Farmer more or less lives here.
But Jack you can’t be the one getting up an hour early to drive to Pawtucket every day.
I probably can’t do it every day.
But we can work something out.
What else would help?
What?
What else would help fix your room.
About which you hate EVERYTHING.
![]()
It is a terrible horrible no good very bad room
I like your room.
Although I like Chowder’s room better.
Because that’s where you kissed me for the first time.
!!!
OH MY GOD
I never thought about that
I mean that it’s now Chowder’s room
Should we tell him it's the site of our first kiss?
Do you think he’d be embarrassed or die of excitement?
Judging by his reaction to the fact we’re dating?
Both.
Oops...brb
Pie
How is old Betsy II holding up?
Betsy, Jr is performing beautifully

Thank you again, sweetheart
I wanted you to have a nice birthday.
I hate to break it to you, Jack, but most folks’ idea of a nice birthday is a cake and card?
I probably should have figured out then we were dating, huh?
I forgive you.
I didn’t know we were dating either.
You have a point

Lardo says we’re meeting at Border Cafe at noon for lunch.
Do you know where that is?
Yeah. Shits and I have been there before.
Bet it was his choice.
He likes the sangria.
Lardo wants us to go to The Awful Truth at the Brattle Theatre
There’s a 3pm showing
She says screwball comedy
Irene Dunne Cary Grant etc.
Here, I’ll
Sure.

Okay
I’ll tell her it’s a go
Want me to order tickets online?
If you let me get lunch?
Deal.
Okay -- Holster needs me to help him and Rans finalize the orientation day schedule
Taddie tours!
When are you getting home?
Uh -- probably 4ish? 5?
You want me to do anything to start dinner?
You’re sweet
Husk the corn?
We can do it up in the broiler when I get there
I’ll take care of the pasta salad.

I miss you and I love you.
Drive the speed limit coming home.
Ha. Ha.
It’s a good thing for you I love you
And that you’re such a good kisser
