Caitlin

Tyler being insufferable again?

Me

You have no idea. Cam too. You would think a flight delay was the end of the world the way they were bitching about having to wait extra hours to see their girls.

I think Tyler was strategizing ways to literally bend the weather to his will to get home to Sophie. It was ridiculous.

Except…

Caitlin

Except what?

Me

Except for the first time, I totally understand him.

Caitlin

Did you try and do some weather mind control to get home to me?

Me

I might have.

Caitlin

Tell me more.

Me

Trying to mind control the weather to get to you isn’t patriarchal bullshit?

Caitlin

Nah, that’s just sexy and swoony.

Me

Anything for my girl.

Caitlin

Your girl?

Me

I’ve literally been inside you. I know how you taste and what sounds you make when you come and how you gasp when I suck on the spot behind your ear. My. Girl.

So much my girl that after I spent some time cursing the NFL schedule gods for giving us a Sunday night game on a night where there would be a massive storm in San Diego that prevented our plane from taking off until four this morning, making me lose a night with you, I started checking flights from every airport in southern California. Nevada too.

Caitlin

I don’t know, Drew. Sounds like Tyler was trying to get the weather to bend to his will while you only checked an app on your phone for flights. That doesn’t feel like the same thing to me.
