You want me to check?

Leighton

Please.

You’ve got that fancy VIP thing, right?

Paxton

*Saluting emoji* I assume I’ll get an explanation later?

Leighton

Fine. Just get me the fuck out of here before I do something stupid.

Paxton

Punky, pick up your phone.

Leighton

I’m in an Uber, five minutes out.

Paxton

Pick.

Up.

Your.

Phone.

At least tell me you’re okay.

Leighton

Physically? Never better.

Please tell me I’ve got a seat locked in, Pax Man.

I wouldn’t ask if I wasn’t desperate.

Paxton

I know. Why else would I be worried?

Can you even make it in time?

I think they cut off bags two hours out.

Leighton

I’ve just got me, myself, and a backpack.

I will sprint barefoot through TSA if I have to. I’ve got pre-check, and no luggage.

Kaia can bring my shit with her Monday.
