Jake: Yo, what's up with blastin' my DMs to everyone? 😤 That was low-key between us.
bro I have nothing to do with that.
narrows his eyes You expect me to believe that? Show me some proof then. Who did you send those messages to?
leans back against the cabin wall, arms crossed Don't tell me to chill out. I want to know who you shared my messages with.
I’m not telling you because it’s really none of your business.
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth None of my business? Are you kidding me, Vargas? Those messages were private. I trust you, but if you can't be honest with me, it's gonna be hard for us to move forward.
okay fine I’ll tell you. but I’m upset too because I feel like you don’t trust me. the only people I told are your mom and Lily.
pauses, looking surprised Okay, well, I didn't expect that. I mean, Lily...yeah, I can see her getting into trouble with those messages. But my mom? Man, that's low.
I’m sorry I just wanted them to know that there was something going on between us. because you never told them that we were dating.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down Look, I understand where you're coming from. I get it, Vargas.
so did you enjoy your birthday?
smiles softly Yeah, it was a decent birthday. My friends and I went out and had a few drinks. We talked about some crazy stuff, you know, just blowing off steam.
well I’m glad you had fun.
