Chapter 11 A Digital Love Affair
A DIGITAL LOVE AFFAIR
STATEN
Do you think this skirt is too short? *screenshot attached*
KNOX
Jesus fuck, Staten. You can’t text me stuff like that when I’m in class.
STATEN
Why?
KNOX
Because you’re distracting, and my ethics discussion is about to get a thousand times more awkward if I’m sporting a half-chub.
STATEN
Ugh, you’re disgusting.
KNOX
I’m honest.
STATEN
You didn’t answer my question. I want Leif to notice me.
KNOX
Trust me, the entire male population will notice you, and I’m not above uppercutting some asshole who stares at you too long.
STATEN
I think you’re taking this fake boyfriend thing a little too seriously.
KNOX
Do you want me to end up in jail? Because that’s where I’m going to be.
STATEN
Too short, got it.
KNOX
Ace, you can wear whatever the fuck you want, but if Leif can’t notice you when you’re in a baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants, then he’s a goddamn imbecile.
STATEN
It’s not like that.
KNOX
Stop making excuses for him. You deserve better.
STATEN
And let me guess: you’re the better?
KNOX
I wasn’t going to say it, but yeah, I am.
STATEN
That ego of yours is going to be your downfall.
KNOX
It’s my greatest quality, actually.
STATEN
You’re incorrigible.
KNOX
I have no idea what that means, but if this is your version of dirty talk, count me fucking in.
