T.J.
Hey, uh, Peter. Got a quick second?
Peter
😂😂Dude, u know Im just playing around. Wat do you need?
T.J.
I'm having trouble asking this person out that I like..
Peter
Oh? Asking someone out, are we? What's her name?
Peter
DUDE, you like Ashlyn? You do realize she is hella popular, you are so out of her league
T.J.
Thanks for the confidence boost.
T.J.
Peter, seriously! What do I do?
Peter
Just ask her, don't be such a bitch
T.J.
What.. if she says no?
Peter
Then she says no, big deal. It's just a girl, there'll be others.
T.J.
What if I tell her and she laughs at me? That's gonna be horribly embarrassing, bro.
Peter
🙄🙄Tj, just do it. Goddamn.
T.J.
Fine, whatever. If this bombs and blows up in my face, I'm holding you accountable.
Peter
Good luck, buddy boy
T.J.
I can't push the send button.
Peter
-sigh- I can't with deal with your shit right now, just hit the goddamned button and let me know how it goes. I need to get to practice now, good luck. See ya.
Episode 1, Part 2 - The Lie
Ashlyn
What the hell happened? What did he say?!
T.J.
Uh, well.. I was kind of just told him.. that I uh-
T.J.
That I liked you! I am so, so sorry!
Ashlyn
You dumbass, doesn't he know that I'm aromantic? And why did you choose me out of everyone you could've chosen?
T.J.
You were the first person that came to mind! I'm sorry! And n-no, I don't think he.. knows, gladly.
Ashlyn
Good thing he doesn't or you'd be in some deep shit. Why didn't you just tell him?
T.J.
You know why! He's on the football team, they make gay jokes all the time and I can't handle telling him and getting rejected.
Ashlyn
So you'd rather lie and never tell him?
T.J.
Better than losing h-him as a friend! I don't wanna lose him, Ash. It'll hurt too much.
Ashlyn
I guess I understand that, but you'll have to tell him sooner or later.
T.J.
I know, I know. But uh.. have you practiced the new song we were assigned? I've been having a lot of trouble with it and I can't get the notes right. It's super stressful.
Ashlyn
Why are you stressed? You're by far the best in the class, are you okay?
T.J.
I'm fine! I'm just struggling with it, okay?!
Ashlyn
Okay, okay.. we can meet up at our usual spot in the park and practice a bit. Then we'll go out and eat, get your mind off of things for a bit.
T.J.
How does 3:00 sound? It's the only time I have free.
Ashlyn
Sounds good, just try and calm down. Go take a shower and just relax a bit, okay? I'll ttyl, I love you, bestie.
T.J.
Thanks, Ash. I will, love you too.
Episode 2 - Avoidance
Peter
Im back, howd it go?
Peter
No fucking way, she actually liked you?
T.J.
I never said I told her.
Peter
Wtf, dude. What did you do then? Just sit on your *** and stare at her photo?
T.J.
N-no! Her and I just talked, but I couldn't tell her, it was too hard.
Peter
I can try and hook you up?
Peter
You gay or something? 😂
T.J.
OF course not, why would you say that?!
Peter
Calm down, I was jk.
T.J.
Sorry, I'm on edge. I've been stressed with this song I have to learn.
T.J.
As if you'd know what it is. You don't even like classical music.
Peter
Hey! I'm not a dumbass, I now things.
T.J.
It's called Für Elise.
T.J.
I really love the song and I know it very well, but I can't get the notes right and it's ticking me off.
Peter
Firstly, how kinky. 😜 Secondly, can you stop being such a goody two shoes? You rarely curse and it makes you look like a loser.
T.J.
Okay, I'm fine with that, and at least I can spell. 🙈
Peter
Low blow, man. Low blow.
T.J.
Are you off of practice or are you just taking a break?
T.J.
Wanna go to Harry's? Maybe get like a pizza or something and hang?
Peter
Uh, that place is too mainstream. I can't be seen hanging with a music geek.
T.J.
Oh, wow.. thanks a lot.
Peter
You know I have to keep my reputation, my future is riding on this.
T.J.
Yeah, yeah, whatever. I guess the same place we went last time then? The corner shop downtown?
T.J.
Alright, meet me at 5:30. I'll be there soon, just gotta do a few chores.
