Tempting (Inked Hearts 1)

Piper: How do you know they don't want to do mini-golf?

Kit: Who does?

Piper: Fair enough. And neither of them read.

Kit: Yeah. I get that they're trying to help, but it only makes me feel weirder.

Piper: Because they're pretending like they want to do something besides get drunk and/or laid?

Kit: Yeah.

Piper: Does Mal invite you out?

Kit: He doesn't usually go out.

Piper: Couldn't you go out and get laid?

Kit: Next question.

Piper: You still haven't said what you're doing tomorrow.

Kit: Reading in my hotel room.

Piper: All day?

Kit: I'll get lunch with somebody. Maybe dinner too. But, yeah, before and after that.

Piper: Isn't that lonely?

Kit: It can be.

Piper: You ever want company?

Kit: Yes, I want company. But I don't pick up some woman or hire a prostitute if that's what you're getting at.

Piper: Why not?

Kit: Not discussing that with you.

Piper: Geez, Kit, I guess I better ask for an approved list of conversation topics.

Kit: How about you tell me what you're doing today?

Piper: I'm supposed to meet Rory for lunch but I'm betting she's going to cancel to hang out with her boyfriend.

Kit: You shouldn't put up with that.

Piper: What can I do? We've been friends since I was eight. All of a sudden, he's the only thing that matters in the world. I can't change her mind. It would be like convincing you to give up music.

Kit: That wouldn't happen.

Piper: Exactly.

Kit: If she does cancel, tell her it pisses you off.

Piper: I do.

Kit: I want proof.
