@abi_asher:March 25, you?

me:February 20th.

me:Favorite color?

@abi_asher:Yellow or red like my hair.

me:Your hair is copper platinum, actually.

@abi_asher:It is, but it’s easier tojust tell people it’s red. How did you know?

me:It’s the most beautiful color I’ve ever seen on the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met.

@abi_asher:melting emoji

MELTING EMOJI?

I stared at it, grinning like an idiot.I made her melt? Dreams do come true.

@abi_asher:My hair is naturally brown, but I dyed it at 16 and never stopped.

me:It compliments you well.

@abi_asher:You think so?

me:I know so.

@abi_asher:Thank you. I always wondered if people could tell it wasn’t natural.

me:It suits you perfectly, and you’re beautiful, so others’ opinions don’t matter.

@abi_asher:That’s sweet of you to say :)

me:Do you ever think about going back to brown?

@abi_asher:Nope. I’m so used to this version of myself in the mirror that it’s become part of who I am.

me:It makes you stand out in the best way.

@abi_asher:You always know just what to say, don’t you?

me:It comes naturally when talking to you.

@abi_asher:I think this is the first time I’ve talked about that.

me:I’m glad you’re comfortable with me.

@abi_asher:I’m glad I am too.

@abi_asher:It’s getting late though, and you should probably head home.

me:Yeah, you’re right. Thanks for tonight. It was really nice talking to you, as usual.

@abi_asher:Drive safe, okay?

me:Always do. Goodnight, Red.

@abi_asher:Goodnight, Mikkel.
