"Just ask it!"
"What did that Hank guy have that I didn't?"
"...Greg. I'm not going to answer that."
"Okay."
"... really? Just like that?"
"Well, yeah."
"But you said before I couldn't pass."
"You didn't pass. You said you weren't going to answer. I never said you had to answer, you just couldn't pass."
"...you know that makes no sense, right?"
"Of course I do."
"Just checking. Is it my turn?"
"Yes."
"But I didn't answer your question."
"I know."
"... Are you plotting something?"
"Not at the moment. My turn!"
"What! No! That wasn't my question!"
"Too bad. My turn! Now... What did that Hank guy have that I didn't?"
"AHA!"
"Aha what?"
"Aha as in I've caught on to you and your little plan and I know what you're up to now, and I'm not going to fall for it."
"I think this closet is getting too you."
"That may very well be true, but I'm still not going to fall for it! I know that the only question you're going to ask is going to be about Hank. And even if I refuse to answer it, you're just going to keep asking it. Well, it's not going to work! I'm not going to fall for it!"
"... aaaaallll riiiiight then, Sara. Calm down."
"And I'm still not going to answer! So there!"
"... Are you sticking your tongue out at me?"
"Yes. There! Ha! That was your question! My turn!"
"You're turning into me."
"...Good lord, you have a point." ((bangs)) "GET ME OUT OF HERE! OUT, I WANT OUT!"
"Stop that! No one's going to hear you. I told you they don't come by here for a while."
"Oh. Right. I am going crazy. Now... a question... Why do you keep asking the same question over and over again?"
((shrugs)) "I realized that was the only question I really wanted answered."
"... that's a little pathetic."
"Yes. Yes it is. Now, what did Hank have that I didn't?"
((silence))
"Sara?"
((silence))
((singsong))"Saaaaaaraaaaa!"
((silence))
"SARA!"
"I'M THINKING, I'M THINKING!"
"Oh. Sorry."
((sigh)) "Okay, I guess I can answer you."
((happily)) "Good!"
"All right. For one things, Hank didn't work with me..."
"Yes he did! We worked with him a lot!"
"Didn't work with me all the time, happy now? And he seemed a little more grown up than you-"
"Yeah, grown up enough to cheat on his girlfriend."
"Would you shut up and let me finish?"
((shutsup))
"Thank you. Anyway, he was a little more grown up than you, and I was just attracted to him. It was one of those... Nevermind."
"What?
"You'll laugh."
"I won't."
"You will, too, it's dumb."
"It can't be that dumb. You're not dumb, so what you say can't be dumb."
"..." ((smile)) "Well, it's just that, when I was a girl I always got this picture in my mind of how I wanted to meet the guy I'd marry. You know, something interesting and romantic so I could tell my kids. I always thought it would be one of those 'our eyes met across a crowded room type things.' And with Hank it was. We saw each other across a room and we were so attracted to each other that we had to talk. I just... thought it was really romantic... Go ahead and laugh."
"I'm not gonna laugh, Sara."
"... really?"
"Do I look like I'm laughing?"
((silence))
"To be perfectly honest, I think it's just as sweet as you say it is."
"Oh yeah? What's your idea of the perfect way to meet a woman?"
"... I've never really thought about it. I just figure when it happens, it happens, you know?"
"I guess..."
"Well, you can go again."
"Huh?"
"I don't have a question I want to ask right now. You can go ahead and ask another one even though you technically already asked."
"Thanks. I did have another one. Why did you want to hear about me and Hank so badly?"
"I... I'm not sure if I want to answer that, if that's okay."
"I thought you trusted me."
"I do! I do trust you. But... I just don't want to tell you that one right now, okay? It's not a matter of trust, it's... I dunno. I don't want to talk about that right now. You can ask another question if you want."
"Let me think of one first."
((silence))
((silence))
((silence))
((silence))
((silence))
((grins)) "Oh, this is a good one."
"What? Oh no. You've got that 'plotting' look."
"How does Nick know about your fear of the dark?"
A/N: Hehehe, I'm so mean to Greggie. I know some of you were wondering that, and I figured this would be the perfect time to ask it. I'm kinda wondering it myself, to tell the truth. BUT I SHALL THINK OF SOMETHING! Something by tuesday. (that's 5-10-05. I have to put these little deadlines, or I really would never update. I'd forget. ) And I think it's been a couple chapters since I've told you how much your reviews help me, so I'll thank you now. You have no idea how much they encourage me! Unless, you're a fellow writer, and then you know! So don't hesitate to drop a line, even it's just "hey, I like it!" or even "hey, it's not really my thing" or even "hey IT SUCKS! YOU SUCK! STOP WRITING YOU AWFUL PERSON!" ... but none of you would do that to me... would you? HOW WELL DO I REALLY KNOW YOU ANYWAY! Hehehe, see you on Tuesday!
