Page 87 of That Geeky Feeling

Been thinking…don’t want to wait till Saturday to see you. I could come to your place in an hour or so. If you’re free, I mean.

CHARLOTTE (07:41 PM)

Love to see you too, but am still at work. And must be back in early tomorrow. So should probably just eat and crash. *sad face emoji*

ELLIOT (07:43 PM)

Completely understand.

Btw, booked you a room at hotel in village for after wedding. Most guests are staying there.

CHARLOTTE (07:44 PM)

How many beds does it have?

ELLIOT (07:44 PM)

One.

CHARLOTTE (07:44 PM)

Wherever will you sleep?

ELLIOT (07:45 PM)

At my parent’s house. Annoyingly. *three sad face emojis*

But maybe I could sneak out when everyone’s nodded off… *shush emoji*

CHARLOTTE (11:18 PM)

Just got into bed. Wish I’d said yes to you coming over now.

ELLIOT (11:19 PM)

You still could…

(11:42 PM)

You fell right asleep didn’t you?

Thursday, Aug 14

CHARLOTTE (06:02 AM)

Shit. I did, yes. Sorry. Damn.

ELLIOT (06:23 AM)

Shame. But I had lovely thoughts of you being in bed instead.

CHARLOTTE (06:25 AM)

What thoughts were they?

ELLIOT (06:27 AM)

You being asleep. All naked and warm. Me slipping in beside you. Quietly, so as not to disturb you. Then waking you up in all sorts of imaginative ways.
