– I googled everything for you! Don’t bother to thank me. The guy from the last episode – Matthew – d’you remember? Cute? Dark eyed? Made you spill coffee without even swearing? Does this ring a bell?

At first it really didn’t, but then conveniently the screen showed him in all his glory. Oh… I blushed. I BLUSHED.

Lizzy laughed so hard she almost fell from her side of the sofa.

– Well, – she continued, – the good thing is that he is…tadadada…British. Being British is always the best thing in a guy, you know. Aaaand, even more, he is from Oldham! But don’t get your hopes high …


– What hopes, Lizzy, are you crazy? – I tried to interfere without any success, of course. –    … cause he originally is from Oldham, but he lives and works in the States now. –    Lizzy, are we still in 7th grade or what? Do I look like a “fanateen”? Do you expect me to fall in love with a movie star and go chase him all the way to wherever in the States he is?, – I stared at her waiting for reply but then the actor began to speak and I felt chills running down my spine.

What the heck?

– Relax! I am just trying to make you laugh, girl. You have been in your lows for a long time now, – she added with a sad tone, – thought you might as well get yourself virtually blown away by a positive handsome character.



Just as I was about to protest, my phone rang bringing “Before you go” to the room.

–Hiya, how is my girl doing? – shouted Kevin from somewhere that sounded like a nightclub.


– All good, honey, just chilling with Lizzy.


– Plant life? Lame show? – he laughed.


– Weed milk, cute actors! – I said in defense of my friend.


– How cute? Can’t be cuter than your boyfriend, tho, right? –    Course not, you’re the one. – I said calmly, smiling. –    Ok, then, just checking. We are shooting for a music video and I don’t hear you straight. Will drop by in a couple of hours, would appreciate some take out! Love you!

And he hang up right as I was saying that I loved him back. Ok, will save it for later. He sounded really uplifted, there might be a very good evening to be looking forward to.

Meanwhile on the screen Matthew was asking Chloe to join him for dinner right after having saved her from falling into a community pool. Don’t ask, those storywriters must have worked in accident statistics department.
