Sync-up

I was chatting with Bill yesterday about boys who flirt with me but never seem to want to follow through with it. I said (roughly), in a bit of frustration, "They seem to forget that sometimes girls need to sync up and make sure we're on the same page. Once that happens, we can carry on."

"We're on the same page, right?" he asked. I assume the thought that I was talking about him a little bit, here, too.

"If by 'the same page' you mean 'just friends', then, yes, we're on the same page. If, however, that has changed, then, no—we're not." I knew what his answer was, and I didn't even allow myself that moment of self-deceit that it might be anything else.

Laughing he replied, "Nope, same page."

And that, folks, is that.
