A/N
If you've recently gotten into watching Bones and don't know what happens to Wendell Bray in Season 9 yet, there's a little spoiler because they talk about the show a little bit. (I couldn't help myself but include it - it's one of my favorite TV shows. Sorry not sorry.)
There will be 2 lines of !!! before the spoiler to indicate the spoiler is in the next few lines. It is the last part of the chapter so just move on to chapter five if you don't want to read it.
And, if you aren't interested in Bones or already know who Wendell Bray is and what happens to him in Season 9, ignore the 2 lines of !!!s.

Did you get what I asked for?
What did you ask for?
Wrong person.
Aww c'mon. I might be able to give it to you. Ship it over to wherever you are.
No thanks. I doubt you'll be able to get it.
Tell me. Who knows? I might.
Doubt it, love.
Love? I thought we didn't know each other. Now you're giving me a pet name?
Just ignore it.
I have an idea!
Oh no, I might lose a brain cell if you tell me.
Whatever. I'll tell you anyway. How about I give you a pet name in return?
No pet names.
You're no fun.
I could show you fun...
Are you flirting now? I could never tell.
If I was, you'd know. You don't have a lot of flirting experience huh?
Sadly no. Anyway, tell me something about yourself. We've been texting for like 3 days now.
Wouldn't it be 4 days?
A phone call and a question don't really count.
Fine. I'll be 18 in 3 weeks.
Wow. You're old.
How old are you then? 12?
Nope. Turning 18 in 6 months, hopefully.
Hopefully? Lost count of how old you are?
No, just forget it.
Don't worry, I was just teasing you. You'll be up with the adults soon.
...
Did I offend you or make you upset? I really was only teasing.
...
Love?
Yeah, I'm still here. And the big 18. Where you're considered an adult, but not really.
All I needed to do was call you "Love" and you respond immediately?
I guess so.
I have the perfect name for me. Sexy.
Oh no.
Why not? It's true.
I am not feeding your ego. I was right. It is the size of the moon, maybe even bigger.
I'm not texting you anymore then.
You're so childish. Do guys even mature?
Only on the outside.
Was that a "Bones" reference? That's my favorite TV show!
No shit, it's mine too!

I just realized that I have something in common with Wendell. He's always been my favorite intern. Next to Vincent, of course.
What do you have in common with Wendell?
...
He smoked weed for his treatment when he got cancer. Do you do it? It's not a big deal to me if you do. I know a few people who do it.
Um, no, it's nothing. I don't smoke weed. We just like science haha...
