Club Endless Fantasy

Ian: Hmm. I can’t say I’m up to date on my sorority humor.

Elly: One. She holds it, and the entire world revolves around her.

Ian: Funny. I take it you’re not in a sorority? :)

Elly: No, and now that I’m done with college, I don’t even have to put up with them anymore.

Ian: Oh? You graduated already? Your profile says you’re still a student.

Elly: It hasn’t been updated in a while. I got a job before graduating that didn’t require me to finish my degree.

Ian: I guess that explains why you’re always at work.

Elly: Yep!

Ian: Ready for another joke?

Elly: Absolutely!

Ian and I traded jokes, along with a few tidbits of information about ourselves, for what felt like a couple of hours—but when I looked at the clock, I realized that it was past my normal bedtime—even for a Friday night. I never even poured a second glass of wine. I was scared to admit how much I enjoyed the conversation. He was respectful when I asked him to back away from a subject, but he didn’t seem to mind any of the questions I asked. There was a part of me that was tempted to continue the conversation, but I did want to go into work the next day, so I decided it was time to call it a night.

Elly: It’s getting late. I have to work tomorrow.

Ian: On Saturday?

Elly: I have some stuff I need to catch up on.

Ian: Okay. Do you want to talk tomorrow night?

Elly: Maybe…

Ian: I’ll try to come up with a few more jokes.

Elly: How about a dirty one?

Ian: I don’t really have any of those.

Elly: I bet you can come up with one. I’ll be waiting. :)

Ian: Fine, but if I tell you a dirty joke, then I want something in return…

Elly: I reserve the right to say no.

Ian: It’s nothing bad.

Elly: Okay, what is it?

Ian: I want to see a picture of one Christmas decoration at your place…

Elly: Seriously? Why can’t you let me be a Grinch?

Ian: It’s up to you. If you want me to tell you a dirty joke, then that’s the price…

Elly: I’ll think about it. How would I send it to you anyway?

Ian: There’s a button at the bottom of the chat. All you need to do is click it and take a picture.

Elly: Okay. I’m not saying I will…
