#I like reading rizzles text messages, but there aren't many fics out there in this format. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but my muse was calling! So here it is...

J: I don't wanna be an old cat lady :(

M: Are you watching Animal Hoarders again Jane?

J: Maybe. That's not the point though! I'm going to die alone :(

M: Dramatic a lot Jane?

M: And I didn't think that you liked cats.

J: It's 'dramatic MUCH' Maura! Stop trying to steal my sarcasm. It's all I have. You can have it after I die. Alone.

M: Well you won't be alone. You'll have your cats!

J: Maura stop. I'm being serious!

M: Jane, would you like to come over?

J: No. I don't wanna put on pants.

M: Would you like me to come to you then?

J: Nah I want to be alone.

J: No offense

M: Do you realize that you are conflicting yourself? How can I help you Jane?

J: Promise me that I'll always have you.

M: Jane, you are my best friend. I don't even want to imagine my life without you being in it. You will always have me Jane.

M: However you want me.

J: What does that mean?

J: Maura?

J: Do you mean you'll be like my fallback person?

M: Fallback person? Define that.

J: It's when you make a pact with someone that you'll marry each other if you're both still single at say 40.

M: Do normal relationship conventions apply?

J: Like what?

M: Sexual intercourse?

J: Well it's still a normal relationship, so yeah I guess.

M: Okay, yes.

J: Yes what?

M: Yes, I'll be your fallback person.

J: Oh

M: Will you be my fallback person?

J: Give me a minute to think about it?

M: Of course. Take your time.

J: Are we being serious right now?

M: I am.

J: So if I say yes, when we turn 40 we'll actually really get married and live together and be a couple and all that.

M: That is how you defined the fallback situation.

J: And we'd have sex?

M: Yes. Jane, you gave me the answers to these questions not ten minutes ago.

J: Yeah but this is different. Now it's actually applying to us. With our track records, there is a real possibility that this could happen. I thought you were straight.

M: I understand the situation perfectly. I am straight.

J: But you said we'd have sex? I have…lady parts.

M: Yes, I know you have "lady parts." Jane, you are hilarious!

J: You know? Or did you assume? You totally assumed!

M: You have been my best friend for almost a decade Jane, I felt that it was safe to assume that you are biologically female.

J: So you're straight but you'd turn for me? I like the sound of that.

M: I would do anything for you Jane, including loving your "lady parts."

J: Please stop putting quotation marks around my lady parts.

M: Jane?

J: Okay, yes. I'll be your fallback person too.

M: Should we have some legal papers drawn up? We need to decide on a specific date.

J: Do we have to wait?

M: Wait for what?

J: Can we fallback now?

M: You don't want to wait?

J: No.

M: Me neither.

J: I've changed my mind.

M: No!

J: I do want you to come over now.

M: Oh god! I almost had a myocardial infarction, Jane.

J: Sorry :)

M: Okay I'm coming. I'll be there in 15. xx

J: I'll be here waiting xx
