Oh when he said so.

he told me not to fall in love with him if we put up with the act.

he got nervous.

and we both hyperventilated in the presence of our bestfriends.

that was the real laugh of the night wasn't it? we were figuring out the best way to stop all the nonsense rumors that are making both of us paranoid.

we don't have a thing.
and we aren't an item.

and so as friends, both our apologies to those who have expectations (that we are something)
and congratulations to those we truly like -- now you are free to like us back.

HAHAHA.
