so we beat on, boats against the current...

You’re too sure of yourself I don’t think you could go a week without talking to me or seeing me.

I know I couldn't. I guess I'm just hoping I'll get the same kind of confirmation from you.

I’m giving you the silent treatment for calling yourself ugly you can’t see, speak, or touch me for a week starting after this post.

You know you could never make it a week without talking to me or seeing me, chérie. You are much too fond of me for that.

I don’t think anyone knows what Mr. Bean does. If you call yourself ugly one more time I’m going to scream so loud you’ll be able to hear it from across the bridge. 

I'd actually be quite interested to hear just how you accomplish that, so I'm going to go ahead and say I'm about as handsome as Quasimodo on a Monday morning.

Mr Bean is British Leo do your research please you’re giving me a headache.

I'M SORRY. I don't even know what Mr. Bean does, I just know I see his face in the mirror every morning.

No you are suave and I might get flustered watching you teach. You’re out of my league, like British Harrison Ford or something.

Oh, please, no, none of that nonsense. British Harrison Ford? More like British Mr. Bean or something.

I would never ever laugh at you. Never. Unless you make a joke then I’ll laugh to be supportive even if it’s hideously unfunny.

Really? Not at all? I don't know, I make some pretty terrible jokes. Just don't laugh if I get nervous. With you there, I might.

I’m never a distraction I only want to learn.

You're in for a treat. Nobody has ever come out of my classes without learning something.

Never.

Of course I know that, I don’t think I could keep you away if I tried.

I sincerely hope you wouldn't try.

No, but it’s alright. I don’t think I’m going to be okay for a while but I know I have people to lean on. 

Of course. Small comfort it may be, but you will always have me. My door is always open for you, I hope you know that.

As well as I could’ve hoped. It was hard but it needed to be done. He was awake one of the days I was there and we spoke for a few minutes which was nice. 

I'm happy you got to spend time with him, chérie. Even if it was only for a little while. I truly think you needed that trip. 

You’re a natural I see, I don’t know how you do it.

And I you. Very much so. 

You would be surprised at how well I recover from it, actually. I've got my tea, I'm perfectly content.

Well then
