Heartless Candor

I won’t let you fall. I promise.

I'm not worried about falling.

Damn. -walks over to her- Do you have any suggestions?

Either wear something else, or we could just not go.

Damn. Guess I’m going out starkers. 

Then you'll probably be arrested for public indecency.

You can’t be that bad. -kisses her temple and leads her out the door, draping his coat on his other arm-

You say that now.

Of course not.  I’m pretty sure he vanished off the face of the planet.

And since that can't actually happen, I'd ask around a bit more.

Did anyone see a guy run through here?

No, I can't say I have.

Of course. It is me after all. Are you ready to go?

Yeah, but be warned, I'm a terrible dancer.

I don’t think I’ve checked. -walks over to the basket and bends over to peer into it, making sure to give Reagan a show- Nope, not in there.

I guess you must have... lost them...

So you had it easy.  Doesn’t mean that my part is self -explanatory.

It shouldn't be that difficult, but if you think it is, then that's your opinion.
