And yes, the old Asher would be annoyed and turn it off. But I’m not the old Asher. I’m fucking happy and content and if my family wants to chat, let them.
ZACH:
Asher just liked a meme I sent him. At 10:47 p.m. On a Saturday.
HUDSON:
What meme was it? Skyler wants to know.
ZACH:
It was a cat wearing a crown that said “when he’s secretly soft but also dangerous.”
HUDSON:
She says that’s basically Asher in a nutshell.
ZACH:
So the reconciliation worked then? The man is definitely in love.
AUTUMN:
Guys, it’s the middle of the night here. If you’re going to wake me up with gossip, you could at least send coffee. And I have ALL the details about the groveling. Our boy did good. I’m proud of him.
ASHER:
Can you all please stop talking about me now?
AUTUMN:
Shut up. You love it. And you love my best friend.
I lift a brow.
ASHER: I do.
AUTUMN: Squee! He admits it. Oh god, I’m hyperventilating. Somebody send oxygen!
ZACH:
It’s sweet. We love to see it.
HUDSON:
Seriously, though. We’re happy for you, Ash. Just don’t screw it up again.
ASHER:
I don’t intend to.
ZACH:
Ah, my big brother is self-reflective! Now that’s what I call character development. What is this, THREE of you in functional relationships? Who would have thought it?
AUTUMN:
I know. It’s weird. I’m scared. Hold me.
