Hey, how are you doing? If you're up for it, do you want to come over for chess and dinner with me and Oliver? We can talk about things, or not talk about them.

Katie
Hi, Katie. I just wanted to see if there's anything you need. I'm here for you, any time.

Oliver
Since I know you're not checking the spreadsheet: I have an overnight tomorrow. I'll miss you, Pietro. Love you.

You checked the spreadsheet? Well now I love you more.

Sam...I didn't check the spreadsheet. But I could have! And you didn't answer my suggestion that you quit and become my house-lover.

I might have quit back when I thought you checked the spreadsheet! What does being a house-lover entail?

I have to say, I think that's a lie. You can just tell me! I sleep next to you, put a post-it on my face.

Mostly a house-lover does whatever he wants, but he's not allowed to go on overnights and make me miss him. (He can go on them for me, though, on fabulous vacations.)

You want me to communicate via post-it on your face?!?! (I will miss sleeping next to you).

Where would you go on a fabulous vacation? I’m genuinely interested in your answer but yes, I am still avoiding your house-lover offer.

Or you could just mention it to me! But I realize the risk of me trying to distract you with my body.

I'd like to see Europe someday, and see how it compares to my old memories. But somewhere with a great beach would good too. Then I could see you in your swim trunks.

You can distract me with your body when I come home! After I do the dishes.

I’ve just started a new spreadsheet. It’s called “vacation ideas.” Those are on it. No mention of swim trunks, though.

Let me get this straight: dishes > me?

NO swim trunks? Are we skinny-dipping? Summers!

I’d just rather give you my full, undivided attention! A clean slate of tasks, so all I have to do is you.

That wasn’t what I was suggesting, but now that you’ve suggested it, why not?

Maybe the dishes could be done when you get home.

WOW. I'm all in for this, put the sexy naked beach vacation at the top of the list.

If they are, I’ll walk in and sweep you off your feet.

That sounds like a vacation I want to go on.

I will do the dishes.

Let's do it sometime. I want to do couples things with you.

Thank you, Oliver!

What other couples things do you want to do?

We could try more leaving-the-house dates, to start with. Speaking of, my friend's doing a music set at the coffee place. We could go?

I'd love to go. I like the idea of more dates.

We'll do dinner first. My treat, since I asked.

That's very romantic!

That's me, sugar. All romance.

You make me smile an alarming amount.

That's my goal.

Mine is to make sure you don't miss me too much!

Nope, sorry, I'm definitely going to miss you a lot. I miss you when you're just out running an errand, or when you're busy in another room.

I love you. What are you going to do while I'm gone?

Pine for you. Stare at an old-time framed photo I'm going to put on my bedside table.

This is very attractive, but you could also go out and have fun, you used to do that.
