Question.

answer

Have you stepped foot in the spa and tried that place out yet?

no isn't that a girl thing?

I know guys who get manipedis all the time.

sounds like they should see a doctor for that

Do you even know what manipedis stands for?

nope

Manicures and pedicures. You know, that thing I would go to for my nails every month or so?

[ One of the few things she would treat herself to if ever she had the time and wasn't off in some war-torn country for weeks on end. ]

oh right those. in that case i don't believe you

What? It's a legit thing. Guys get their nails buffed and their cuticles treated a lot! You could gain a thing or two from visiting there, I've seen how bad your hangnails get Nate.

i'd just scuff them up again

Fine. Anyway. The point of this was because I stopped by there the other day and it's kind of scary looking in the mirror now.

why did they give you one of those mud masks and forget to take it off?

Uh not exactly. It came off just fine. And I'd say about ten years with it.

haha i bet. they must do good work there

I'm being serious. And stop laughing. I can hear you.

[ Not really, but still. ]

bullshit you cannot

ok show me a picture then

I'm kind of scared to, no word of a lie.

Like. It's like you robbed a cradle, Nate. You're a cradle robber. Add it to your resume.

are you only texting me because you're trying to wind me up without getting called out for making stuff up because that's what it sounds like

Woah, a little defensive on being called a cradle robber ain'tcha.

it's time to put up or shut up fisher you gotta back up your claims with proof

Fine.

[ Fine. Elena is going to put up. And by doing so, she huffs and leaves her room to go next door and bang on his door.

He probably expected a picture. Hell no. She is going to back this shit up in person— she also wants to see his reaction for herself. ]

[Nate opens the door, smiling pleasantly (and still a little amused at himself), only for his smile to drop off immediately as he registers what she looks like and takes a big step back.]

What the fuck.

[ She's got her arms folded. His reaction is perfect, leaves her looking and feeling a little smug. That doesn't make it any less unsettling. ]

See?

[ Elena points with both hands to her new face. Her fresh face. A nineteen year old Elena Fisher. ]

And you thought I was pulling your leg. You're a cradle robber. Now guess my age.
