A girl punches in a number into her phone and waits for the other line to pick up.

"Bella, it happened! I've finally...cracked...I can't take it anymore. He looked at me with the same look, the "Hey, I'm going to play around with you a while" look. Every time I see him, my heart skips a beat and my legs turn to jello. My body starts to burn with the intensity of it all! I love him...and...could you please help me Bella?"

PAUSE

"Bella, I know he's your brother...but...please?"

PAUSE

"Bella, hello? HELLO?!"

"This isn't Bella."

The girl was petrified.

"Then...who is this?"

"I'm the guy that sets your body on fire and makes your legs turn to jello."

"...I-I am so sorry! I...I'm-"

"And...the look I give you isn't a "Hey, I'm going to play around with you for a while" look. It's a "Hey...I really like you...please notice" look."

"...I-I....I LOVE YOU!"

"Me too.....so.....is it a yes?"

"What's a yes?"

"Me and You?"

"YESSSS!"

Tonight it happened.
