Text Conversation Between Jane Mercer and Riker Maddox
Jane: I messed up, and I’m freaking out. You around?
Riker: YES. What’s happening?
Jane: Nora is in town with Mom to shop for dresses (long story) and she just caught me and Keeley in a…compromising position.
Riker: Oh. Oh no. How compromising?
Jane: We were in a dressing room (another long story that involved helping my sister model wedding dresses for my mom) and we were…making out. And…I was topless…
Riker: SHIT.
Riker: That’s not great.
Riker: Are you okay?
Jane:…as well as can be expected.
Riker: and again I say: SHIT.
Jane: Yeah I just…I knew they’d find out someday, I just wasn’t prepared for it to be today. We only just got together, and…I wasn’t careful enough. I know I need to talk to my sister…I just don’t know what to say. Is she going to understand? God, I’m scared.
Riker: I’m here for you. Do you want backup? I can get my ass over there.
Jane: As tempting as that is, no. I’ll handle this one on my own.
Riker: Okay, Janey. Whatever happens, please remember I love you and I support you.
Jane: I appreciate it Mom’s calling me over to pick a restaurant now—wish me luck.
Riker: LUCK! (and give me a location and I’ll send you some recommendations.)
Riker: and also…fuck the patriarchy
