Jeremy
Yeah, way to leave early, asshole.
Jordan
Listen, when your girl tells you that you’re leaving for dessert at home, you follow instructions. And dessert was had *winky face emoji*
Jeremy
Gross dude, I don’t need to hear about that.
Jordan
So, details please.
I snort out a laugh. My friends might be grown adults, but they gossip like teenagers. Feeling better with the beginnings of a plan brewing in my mind, I decide to play along.
Me
I’m not sure you deserve any details. Details are for friends who didn’t leave early.
Jordan
Come onnnnnn. Give them to me. You know I hate being left out of shit.
Jeremy
Double your donation from tonight and details will be yours.
Jordan
Done.
Jeremy
Our Ben had a bit of a moment with Hallie on the dance floor.
Me
Saw that, did you?
Jeremy
Everyone saw that.
Jordan
I need more please.
Jeremy
There was no space between them. None at all. It did not look like a friendly dance, and Hallie was definitely picking up what Ben was laying down.
I grin at that, because she sure was. I knew I wasn’t imagining it.
Me
It didn’t feel all that friendly either.
