Journo: (his face is so beaming bright it hurts my eyes) Guess what!
Me: (I think you're going to tell me before I have my morning coffee anyway.) What.
J: Danny, the contributor to our magazine emailed me!
Me: (So excited? Are you gay or what.) Uh-huh. I thought we told him the article was fine.
J: Yeah I know! [Reads off email]: Dear J, thanks for your interest in my contributed article. Would you be free to meet up for a coffee this week? OMG HE WANTS TO MEET ME FOR COFFEE!
Me: (Okay are you SURE you're not gay?) That's great, J. *musters half a smile*
J: SHOULD I GO? (seriously, he was speaking so loudly and excitedly I have no choice but to put it in caps)
Me: Yes, of course you should. Go see him this week why not.
J: Ooh but it's deadline week. And I should finish my work first. And besides, I shouldn't seem too eager to meet him, even tho' I really want to... *trails off*
Can you say... closet?
