Matt: Happy Halloween, beautiful.
Anah: Happy?
Matt: Not a Halloween fan, I take it?
Anah: Halloween is creepy.
Matt: Scaredy-cat.
Anah: That’s me.
Matt: So are you’re dressing up today?
Anah: I’m going as a sexy cat… you should see the spankies I’m gonna wear.
Matt: I’m trying to be chill about this, but I’m failing, so…
Matt: DO NOT WEAR SPANKIES.
Anah: Why not?
Matt: Because they’ll barely cover your butt.
Anah: And?
Matt: I don’t want everyone gawping at my girlfriend’s ass.
Anah: You sound a little jealous, Matty.
Matt: I am. And my name is Matt. Never Matty.
Anah: Sure thing, Matty.
Matt: Annie…
Anah: That’s what my Gran calls me, so your plan to make me irritated failed. Epically.
Anah: I was kidding, by the way. I’m not going as a sexy cat.
Matt: You’re not?
Anah: Can you really see me in a pair of shorts that, as you say, barely cover my modesty? I’ll look like a street walker.
Matt: You were trying to get a rise out of me? I should have seen that coming. So what are you dressing up as?
Anah: Eden’s making me do this whole Freaky Friday thing with her… I have to dress up as her, and she’s dressing up as me.
Matt: What’s scary about that?
Anah: Eden in a band shirt? Me in pink?
Matt: Yeah, pink isn’t your thing.
Anah: I know, right?
Anah: Oh… no, wait. Eden says we’re going as zombie versions of each other.
