Adam: Hey
Adam: I will probably kiss you at the clock tower
Susan: Okay?
Adam: All the boys are with me
Susan: Got it
Susan: Thanks for the heads up
____
Susan: Headed to campus corner, the guys are meeting us there if you can come
Adam: I’m up in Oklahoma City. BC dinner meeting
Susan: Oh never mind! No worries
Adam: What guys?
Susan: Boyfriends, fiancés, the guys you met at the date party, James, Pearce, Will, a few more SigEps
Adam: I’ll drive down
Susan: That’s at least 45 minutes, it’s okay. I’m sure I won’t be the only single girl
Adam: Remember you’re not single
Susan: Ha I know!
Susan: Silly me.
Susan: I meant the only odd man out.
Susan: Except not a man, obviously
Adam: Have you been drinking already?
Susan: Only one cocktail Megan made
Susan: You don’t have to drive all the way for this
Susan: It’s fine
Adam: I’m already in the car
____
Susan: We need to talk about Spring Break
Adam: Ok?
Susan: Do you have plans?
Adam: Sounds like I’m about to
Susan: The girls want to do a joint ski trip, guys cabin and girls cabin
Susan: Brenna’s dad owns a small ski resort in Colorado
Adam: Ok
Susan: Ok?
Adam: Send me the official itinerary
Susan: I don’t have one yet
Adam: Liar
Susan: Fine, I’ll send you what I have but it might change
Adam: K
Susan: You’re sure you don’t mind? You didn’t have something planned with the team?
Adam: No
Adam: They could barely plan their way out of a locker room
Susan: Well YOU could plan something for them
Adam: Why would I do that when I have you planning a free ski trip for me?
Susan: Free, yes, but I know these guys aren’t your favorite
Adam: No, but you’ll be there
Adam: So I’ll be there too.
Susan: We’ll have to act the whole time. Megan will be there.
Adam: That’s fine
Susan: Really? That’s like five days of making out and stuff
Adam: Well, luckily I really love skiing, so it’s worth it.
Susan: Oh good
Adam: Yeah
_____
Adam: Any weird roadside things you’re dragging me to once we get to Colorado?
Susan: You wish
Adam: You think I haven’t heard about the Largest Fork in the United States?
Susan: It’s not really on the way
Adam: Make it on the way
Susan: Okay
_____
Adam: Hey
Susan: Hey
Adam: Need to give you a heads up
Susan: Okay…
Adam: I know you’re not big on surprises.
Susan: I’m not?
Adam: No, Cruise Director Spice, you are not.
Adam: You like control and you’re good with it. You’re good at being in charge.
Susan: Thanks I guess?
Adam: Yeah. So.
Adam: I’m proposing on the trip
Adam: Are you there?
Susan: Yes, sorry. Proposing. Okay.
Adam: My dad won’t let up, says I have to do it soon.
Adam: What’s on your proposal checklist?
Susan: I don’t have a checklist for everything!
Adam: I didn’t mean literal, just like what do you want?
Susan: I don’t know
Adam: Think about it. Obviously I’ll get down on one knee in front of everyone. I think I’ll do it at the fork.
Adam: Sound good?
Susan: Yeah, makes sense, someone will already be taking pics.
Adam: I’ll wear something nicer than a hoodie
Susan: Yes me too
Adam: Sadie showed me rings on some new thing called pinterest
Susan: You talked to Sadie about this?
Adam: Yeah I didn’t know what kind of ring to get
Susan: Oh ok. Smart
Adam: Anything else I’m forgetting?
Susan: I don’t think so.
Susan: I guess your uncle couldn’t get us out of this in time?
Adam: No. My dad makes his contracts ironclad.
Adam: But he says they found one section they think they can pick apart in court. Just not yet.
Adam: Sorry
Susan: That’s okay.
Susan: Sorry you had to go to all this trouble
Adam: It’s not a lot of trouble
Adam: I just didn’t want to screw it up
Adam: So you’ll tell me if you think of anything else I need to do?
Susan: Sure
