Phone Call || fourstareli

Eli: looks over the ad he'd put out in the paper yesterday, wondering whether he'd get a call or if he should have set out for someone to do the work -- he just didn't have the time, really, with Celia and work, nor had he had the will to have it done since it had been Clare's idea, but now that there were problems with the pipes under the counter as well, it was time to get it renovated and fixed. Hearing his phone ring, followed by his daughter chiming "ring ring ringggg" and running the phone to him, he smiled, answering. "Hello?"

Jake dropped the paper back to the counter and sat back in the bar stool, running his now free hand through his hair as the voice on the other line picked up. "Yeah, hey. I saw your ad in the paper, about the renovations." Jake paused and dropped his hand to the counter, smoothing the paper over as his finger found the ad in particular and he nodded. "It says you're looking for someone who can start immediately. And I, uh. Wait, shit. Shoot, I mean. I'm Jake Martin. I should've said that first." Chuckling at his own embarrassment, he began to wonder when he was the type of guy to even read the morning paper, but yet, here he was. "Sorry, I'm not good with this whole talking over the phone thing." Jake admitted lightly. "What all needs to be done?"

Jake picks up his phone, his eyes glancing over at the number in the newspaper. Quickly typing it into his phone, he puts the phone to his ear and picks the paper up with his other hand, his eyes scanning over the ad once more as he waits for the other end to pick up.

Hiatus until further notice.

Let's have some shower sex ;)

Oh baby, let’s ;)

[inthewoodsjake]

I think you made me ruin my favorite pair of my shorts. Thanks for that :P

I’m sorry, how did I do that again?

[inthewoodsjake]

Can we have shower sex?!

We can have all the shower sex that you want ;)

[inthewoodsjake]

sext: girl i’m going to make you scream so loud it’ll put monsters inc out of business

[inthewoodsjake]

I know, it's a problem. I don't know. I don't think Mo would like that. We're pretty attached and if I clean for someone else, he might get jealous. You know how boyfriends are, Katie. Reese's pieces really are the best. Milk duds are alright but they always get stuck, you know?

Oh burning things is never good Jake.  But at least you make up for it in cleaning, you know I should ask Mo if I can borrow you, there is a few things that need a good clean here at my house, you know common chores that I have to do and such. Reese’s pieces are the best, better then milk duds, I just said milk duds because it’s a common favorite of movie goers.

Yes I know that’s for sure.

[inthewoodsjake]

Not at all.

Okay.

[inthewoodsjake]

Okay.

See, bully-ism. And after all those drawings I drew you. I’m hurt, Jake Martin.

[inthewoodsjake]

I'm afraid Eli's set in his ways. Hey, it's okay. We all make mistakes. As long as we learn from them.

I mean it, those things that I say aren't just words. It's how I truly feel about you, Edwards, so never downplay it. I would hate to lose you, too. Yeah, anybody who even gets a glance from you is a lucky bastard. Haha, it's definitely okay.  You can always just stick with me. It'll be fine.

So she's over your dad now? That's good. Why haven't you told her? She would be able to comfort you. 

I know I do, he’s a complete jerk anyways, he always has and I thought that I could simply change him, but I was wrong, I guess I learned my lesson, or I hope so. Very true, poor girl, she wants all the attention.

Awe Jake you don’t have to say those things, you’re too kind and you’re an amazing friend, and I would hate to ever lose you.  Lucky bastard? Maybe I’ll avoid men for a while, just stick with you, I mean if that’s okay, I don’t want to cut into you and Eli’s time.

Other then that, hmm I’m doing well, mother is crazy still, doing that whole trying to date thing, and it’s clearly not working out for her, but who am I to judge? I don’t have the exact good track record when it comes to boys, I haven’t even told her about Eli yet.

[inthewoodsjake]

I'm not a bully. I mean, I could be a real asshole if you wanted me to be.

No, I’m not confused. You’re pretending like I’m being mean to you when you’re a bully.

[inthewoodsjake]

Nope. The only one who is confused here is you.

I think you mistake your meanness for mine. 

[inthewoodsjake]

In my aunt's eyes, it's a good thing. You'll learn and see, she's just that way. Aha-ha-ha-ha. Well, there's nothing wrong with it if you enjoy it so much. But jobs can be fun, if you're not a stick in the mud.

By your standards, whereas I sit here in complete relief because I do not feel a bit deprived.

The Summer is off to a roaring start.

I wasn’t aware hectic ever could be a good thing, but I guess you learn something new every day. Love, finally a logical concept from you! There’s nothing wrong with my job, and work isn’t meant to be fun, it’s called a job for a reason.

Deprived. You are deprived, mister.

[inthewoodsjake]

Nope.

I think you imagine things, Jake Martin.
