Stealing Home: A Reverse Grumpy-Sunshine College Sports Romance: Chapter 22
May 13th
PENNY
I’m sorry, you what?
I know you read it correctly
You’re with Sebastian. You’re at the house with SEBASTIAN
…How soon are you coming back from the road trip?
You haven’t even wanted to talk about him, much less, like, be around him
Dorm flooded, boots ruined
He was, unfortunately, the best option
Let it be known I’m squinting my eyes in your direction
Long distance
Can you feel it?
I’m rolling my eyes
So you totally can
Does Cooper know?
Idk
Be careful
Or, you know, don’t
Don’t make me regret telling you this
Seb is a good guy
This would be good for you
Nothing’s happening
Sure, whatever you say
May 14th
The jacket too, Callahan?
SEBASTIAN
Can’t have the boots but not the jacket
Let me pay you for it
Don’t you know how gifts work?
May 15th
Good luck on your game
SEBASTIAN
🙂
Hopefully won’t be back too late
If you are, I’m going to bed
No extra innings, got it
May 17th
Thank you for lunch
It might be saving my life right now
Even if I want to launch it at Alice’s face
SEBASTIAN
Bad day?
It’s not the work, it’s all the shit around it
She mislabeled some data, so it completely threw my model off
Yet it’s somehow my fault
Anyway, thank you. What even is it? It’s delicious
Chana masala
I’ve made my own naan before, but no time right now
May 20th
SEBASTIAN
You really played softball?
I was a pitcher
I can’t believe you never told me this
I feel like I’m talking to a whole new person
Lol
I never said I was good at it
Come on
I was… decent. I had a nice pitch
You have to show me sometime
May 21st
SEBASTIAN
I’ll be back late tonight. Going out with some of the team
I have observatory access tonight anyway
Where will I find you after?
Don’t ask questions with an obvious answer
Wasn’t sure it was so obvious
I’ll wear that set you like
Blue or black lace?
May 22nd
Dr. Ellie Arroway? Seriously?
SEBASTIAN
I know how you admire Jodie Foster
Have you even seen Contact?
Nope
But let’s add it to the list
I’m not coming to the game
I’ll leave a jersey out just in case
Wait. What list?
A list of movies to watch
Together
Is this code for something?
Unfortunately, I do not speak binary like you do
You’re the worst
Don’t you know it
We’re starting off with a classic
Can’t fight it
Fine, what’s the classic?
Point Break
Obviously
Damnit
I knew it, you’re a sucker for ‘90s movies like me. Who can resist Patrick Swayze?
It’s the surfing and homoeroticism for me
I’m not half bad at surfing, you know
Cooper is terrible at it
Which is a special kind of hilarious
Please tell me you have video
May 23th
SEBASTIAN
Adding Clueless to the watch list
Why?
We have so many action movies on it already
Why watch a movie without action? If I wanted to watch people talking, I’d just sit in the quad
A woman after my own heart
Still adding it to the list
I’m rolling my eyes at you. Just so you know
Whenever you’re ready, I’ve got the list and a killer popcorn recipe
Since when do you need a recipe for popcorn?
I do things the right way. You ought to know that by now, angel
Nope
Hey, I had to try it out
Good luck on the away game
May 24th
My stupid vibrator died in the flood
And I hate how dramatic that sounded
SEBASTIAN
Is this an invitation?
Perhaps
This is totally a booty call
Ugh
🙂
I’ll be home in ten. Just leaving the facility
I want your pussy wet already, gorgeous
