"Nicole, would you erase the messages from the machine every once in a while? The thing is full!" Ami yelled as she walked into the apartment.

"I erased them this morning babe, those are all you!" Her roommate yelled back.

"Huh?" Ami hit the button and was astonished to find that the first message was from Jon. Not caring to hear whatever that meat wad had to say, she skipped to the next message. Unfortunately that message was also from Jon, and so were the next five.

"He's been calling all day," Nicole said, finally coming into the room. "He seems to think that persistence makes the heart grow fonder."

"Grow fonder? I just want him to go away!"

"Yeah well, he wants you back babe, and it doesn't look like he's going to be too happy about getting the big no."

Ami sighed loudly. "This is great, absolutely great! Just when I thought I had that jerk out of my life here comes again. Well you know what? He can be as persistent as he wants but the answer IS the big no." She hit the "delete all" button on the answering machine and stormed up the stairs to her room. As she undressed she flipped on the computer and opened her e-mail. "What the…" Besides the dozens of perverted e-mails there were at least twenty there from Jon. "Oh this is perfect! I can't get away from him!" She was just about to delete all her e-mail when the name Kurt Wagner caught her eye.

He was too good to be true, he had to be. Whose life was really that interesting? And now he was saying it wasn't? Still unsure as to whether he was for real or not, Ami sat down to reply to her sudden mystery man. Hell, even if this was just a load of crap, it sure made for an interesting diversion, and right now that was more than welcome.
