DON’T LEAVE - M?
Lodestar: Who are you talking to?
Conor: Brennan
Lodestar: What’s he want?
Conor: To know if I’m dead.
Lodestar: What did you tell him?
Conor: Lol.
Lodestar: :P
Conor: Got a song for you.
Lodestar: Hmm?
Conor: “ Don’t Leave” - M?.
**Five minutes later**
Lodestar: There a message in those lyrics?
Conor: That’s why we’re sending each other songs, no?
Lodestar: Maybe.
Conor: Definitely.
Lodestar: I’m not going to leave.
Conor: You said that before.
Lodestar: I did. But I have to make up for shit now. Atonement. Remember?
Conor: It’s only atonement if you mean it. It can’t be forced.
Lodestar: I don’t WANT to leave.
Conor: Well, that’s good.
Lodestar: Just good?
Conor: Better than good.
Lodestar: You don’t have to work in there…
Conor: Figured you might need some space.
Lodestar: Maybe if you weren’t you.
Conor: I am me.
Lodestar: I know. That’s my point.
Conor: Do I have special privileges?
Lodestar: I believe you do.
Lodestar: Conor?
Conor: Yeah. I’m coming. Just gotta finish this up.
Lodestar: I like that song.
Conor: I’m glad.
Lodestar: But, I think it’s wrong.
Conor: Why?
Lodestar: I should have sent that to you. I’m the mess. Not you.
Conor: Star, we’re both messes. But, somehow, when we’re together, it doesn’t feel so tumultuous.
Lodestar: It doesn’t…
Conor: Gimme two mins and I’ll be right in.
Lodestar: 3
Conor: xo
