Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
You need to pay for my medical bill.

The message would've been confusing if I didn't know Leo Bracci, but I did, and it was funny. So there I was, sitting in the school parking lot in my 2006 Ford Mustang, snorting in barely contained laughter like a crazy person as I waited on my sister to finish her soccer practice.

Me:
???

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
Your reply earlier got me a fractured jaw.

A very unladylike pfft escaped my mouth as his reply only fueled my laughter. It took me a few seconds to compose myself enough to text him back.

Me:
That sounds like it's your fault, not mine. Maybe you should pay more attention to your surroundings? Just a tip...

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
Look at you, being an entitled teenager running away from your responsibilities...you disappoint me, Justine.

Me:
What are you, my grandpa??

My own reply sent me into another fit of laughter, thinking of Leo Bracci as my crazy-ass, eighty-one-year-old grandpa. I love that man to death.

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
You'd think after seeing my body you'd know better.

That made my mirth disappear in an instant as I felt the heat of a blush rising in my cheeks and warming the tips of my ears, the sensation was slowly becoming familiar over the last twenty-four hours. I swear I haven't blushed so much in all of my seventeen years of existence.

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
Plus...I'm pretty sure I'm older than you.

Me:
Oh yeah? What month were you born in?

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
July.

I fist-pumped the air.

Me:
Ha! I'm a May baby!!

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
Danggit!! Guess you'd be a cougar if we dated...

Me:
Don't worry. I'm not imterested in little boys.

Leo-fucki-Bracci:
Hear that? That is the sound of my heart breaking.

I huffed out a short laugh, rolling my eyes at his antics, just as I received another text.

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
Also, since my pride will not take that jab, might I remind you about that picture I sent last night? Yeah...I'm really not little.

Cue blush multiplied by fifty.

Me:
Fuck you, Leo.

Leo-fuckin-Bracci:
It's a date ;)
