I can do this. It's not hard, right?

Yeah, more like three to four hours of acting 'formal' with a certain hothead. God knows if we are going to stay 'just' three hours - my unconscious hissed.

I'll imagine Ryder with a mask and a hoodie and a...

Wait. That'll be weird.

The last thing I want is to mess up their names and go ahead screaming Damon's name once Ryder snaps me out of my thoughts.

Yeah, let's just skip the part where I imagine Ryder exactly like Damon. Definitely a thought I'm not willing to go through.
