they linger at the back of each other's minds for the rest of that day and the days after that. both of their friends notice.
"my boy got laaaaid!" sebastian's hand hits eddy's back.
"as i've said the past few times, i did not!" eddy elbows his friend lightly.
"mmhm, mmhm," sebastian smiles coyly. eddy rolls his eyes.
"i swear to god, you have the worst mind."
"thanks, bud."
"—okay, come on. you really didn't get that d?" he waggles his eyebrows.
"will you calm down!?" eddy whispers, as if anyone would hear them. he's turning red from embarrassment.
"no! holy sh—you really think we'd do that? i mean—nevermind. it's way too soon. nuh-uh."
"but you will, right?" sebastian smiles cheekily.
"oh, will you shut up!"

"can you like, wipe that smile off your face? you look crazy and it's scaring me," jean teases. brett looks at her and makes his smile sarcastic. she laughs.
"yeah, that's better," she snickers.
"why, thank you."
"you're very welcome."
"enough chit-chat. can i have my coffee now?" a blonde lady interrupts with the most annoying tone.
"in a second, ma'am," brett smiles fakely. jean tries not to roll her eyes.
"those kinds of customers make me miss your boyfriend, honestly," jean whispers.
"he's not—whatever."
"come on, don't you miss him?" she asks playfully.
"enough chit-chat, as the lady said earlier," brett smiles sarcastically at jean.
"just say you miss him and i'll shut my mouth."
"fine. i miss him. that enough?"
"mmhm," she smiles triumphantly.
"...so, you miss him."
"so that was not enough."
