Chloe,
Been swamped with work all morning, and I've only got 2 minutes to type this.
You're right, we should just talk, given the fact that we're living in the same city. Feel like getting something to eat tonight? If so, email me or leave a message with Linda, she'll make the reservations.
- Lex

Lex,
You're on! Of course you're right, we do live in the same city and everything and besides I like to eat now and again!
When and what time?

Subject: Dinner
Chloe,
Just wanted to say how refreshing it was talking to you (in person) last night. We should do it more often.
Again, I'm sorry that I was late. I really deplore business meetings, especially when they keep me from having dinner with friends!

Lex,
Don't worry about it! I know what it's like.
Actually I don't, but you know what I mean!
I agree, it was good to have someone to talk to. What are you doing today (as a matter of curiosity)?

PS. Oh my god, your email id is 'bald Lex'? LOL! Why? Before I die from laughing.

Chloe,
Have you stopped laughing yet? It's my home account. I need to pick something that isn't going to be easily guessed. There are at any given time a huge number of people trying to hack into my email account!
About my plans: I'm not sure. This is actually one of my scheduled weekends off, but I haven't actually planned anything. I think I make a very bad normal person.
What about you?

Lex,
I'm sorry, but ... 'baldlex'? Oh god that got me started again.
Well I'm on the net right now. But I should really get out more - you know, breathing fresh air and becoming part of nature and all. ;-D
Seriously, if you have nothing better to do, you want to hang?

Subject: Friday again
Chloe,
Feel like dinner again tonight? I've just had to deal with bankers that would make loan sharks look like old ladies with broomsticks. I could do with a little cheering up in the form of you!
I talked to Clark last night. What is going on with him and Lana? I know I've been grossly left out of the loop (partly from lack of communication) but really, is that any way to treat an old friend? Is there something I should be informed about regarding those two?

Oh thank God you asked Lex! I was steadily being driven crazy by Sharon (the other intern) and your email came just at the point where I was going to club her senseless with a very blunt object. And be gleeful while committing a fatal assault.
Yes, I'm totally (woefully) free for dinner. I'm so sad! ;-( Not that it's sad having dinner with you of course. You know what I mean.
About Clark and Lana - um yeah. The two dawdling idiots have decided they've done enough waiting around and have decided to give the dating thing a try. But you didn't hear it from me!

PS. My god, have we been reduced by the tedium of work to gossiping about our friends? This is so not happening!

Chloe,
Dinner same time different place? I'll pick you up at 7. It's just round the corner from my apartment. Hope you like Italian.
I promise I won't be late.

Chloe,
I'm getting a strange sense of deja vu, but do you want to have dinner tonight? I feel like I need to wash the grime of my corporate life off me, and what better way than to enjoy the evening with you?

Lex,
Wow you really know how to make a girl feel appreciated! Sure thing about the dinner. It's getting to be a regular thing with us, isn't it?
I really liked that place you took me to last week. Do you think we could go there again?

Wow, did I not just say yesterday that you really know how to make a girl feel appreciated?
In case I didn't say this enough last night, thanks for the flowers. It's very sweet of you. And for the record, I love roses!
