RedHotLover:Then when?
Huodou:I’ll contact you when I’m free.
RedHotLover:But you’re never free!
Huodou:Dew, it’s been months since I’ve given you the King account. Use the Serendipity username to find someone to warm your bed tonight. I’m busy.
RedHotLover:With who? I know I’m the only person you’re seeing right now.
Huodou:Careful. You’re crossing lines that shouldn’t be crossed. You won’t like the consequences. We aren’t “seeing each other”. I would never date a student.
RedHotLover:Unless that student was West Corleone, right?
Huodou:Watch yourself.
RedHotLover:I’m sorry. Don’t be mad.
RedHotLover:I just hate how little you care. We’ve been doing this for months now. You really don’t feel anything for me at all? What if I really did use the Serendipity account? You’re saying you wouldn’t even be a little bit jealous?
Huodou:I gave you that account to use. This isn’t what you think it is, and it never will be. Perhaps we should put an end to it.
RedHotLover:Don’t say that! I’m sorry! I can be good, I swear!
Huodou:Then stop pestering me and stay in line. When I want you, I’ll call you. Until then, quit staring at me in class with that lovesick puppy look. If anyone catches on because you can’t keep it in your pants, only one of us will be going down. It won’t be me.
RedHotLover:I’d do anything for you. You know that.
Huodou:Except leave me alone when I tell you to.

RedHotLover:Thanks for spending Demons Passing with me. I had a great time! I’ve never come so many times in my life!

RedHotLover:I gave the Serendipity account to a friend. You don’t mind, right?
Huodou:What you do with it is your business.
RedHotLover:Thanks.

RedHotLover:I think someone saw us the other night.
Huodou:What makes you say that?
RedHotLover:I’ve been getting this weird vibe from one of the girls in my class.
Huodou:A vibe? Come to me when you have proof.
RedHotLover:I’m serious.
Huodou:So am I. I don’t have time for another one of your games. If you want my attention so badly, come to my office in an hour. You can put that ridiculous mouth of yours to better use than spinning stories.
RedHotLover:You promise?
Huodou:If you’re really good, maybe I’ll even put you over my desk afterward.
