Don't Say Anything

36. Texting

I guess I should have clarified.

From: Jessi To: Will

Out shopping. Don't call the cops yet.

From: Will To: Jessi

Just making sure you weren't going to a party without me. –Will

I don't know why he feels the need to sign all of his text messages. I can see who each messages is from at the top of the screen.

From: Jessi To: Will

I'll be attending another college party when I feel like humiliating myself again. I'll let you know when that is. –JESSI

From: Will To: Jessi

Please do. I would hate for someone else to have to carry you home. –WILLIAM

From: Jessi To: Will

That was a one-time thing. I'm never drinking anything that tastes like cherries again. –JESSICA

From: Will To: Jessi

You should probably just stay away from drinks in general. –WILLIAM HASTINGS

From: Jessi To: Will

You're the one shoving Champaign in my face at a family party. –JESSICA BLACK

From: Will To: Jessi

You needed it. –stop signing your name

From: Jessi To: Will

I might need some on Saturday. –you started it

Thoughts of successful men and beautiful women fill my mind. I'm really not cut out for the job of Will's date. I'm not rich, extremely talented, or look like a model. I need at least one of the three to pretend I belong.

From: Will To: Jessi

Why do you want to be drunk at an art show? I thought you liked paintings. –it's my thing

From: Jessi To: Will

I don't want to be drunk. I just need a boast of confidence when I'm around intimidating and stunning people. –no one signs their text messages

From: Will To: Jessi

I think you'll fit right in. –calm down

From: Jessi To: Will

I'm intimidating? –I am calm

From: Will To: Jessi

Not at all, but you're definitely stunning. –don't be nervous

He never fails to make my heart beat out of my chest. Now that I know so much about his past, it amazes me how kind of a person he is. If I had his family, I'd probably move to another country and pretend they didn't exist. He cares too much for Leah to do that though.

From: Jessi To: Will

Thank you, but in comparison, I might be lacking on Saturday. – not at all nervous Jessi

From: Will To: Jessi

I highly doubt that, Rosie. You'd be surprised at the range of people that show up to these things. – dress shopping tomorrow?

From: Jessi To: Will

-yes

From: Will To: Jessi

That won't be necessary. –Christmas gift part two

From: Jessi To: Will

You said you weren't going to spend money on my gift!! –you liar

He bought me a dress? That rich bastard! But it would save me so much anxiety and stress... and money. But I can't accept another pricey present from him. It makes me feel so cheap.

From: Will To: Jessi

I didn't pay for it. I'll explain in person. –pebble

Pebble? What does that-

There's a clink against my window. Is he throwing rocks outside my dorm room?

Another clink.

I guess the security people downstairs weren't being very nice today.

My phone vibrates again just as I'm about to stand up.

From: Will To: Jessi

Open your fucking window. –frozen Will

As romantic as ever.
