That Bit Extra—Well, that's awkward… (Patreon)

"I can come and help you now," Nate/Nat offers. "I will be there in a moment."

"No, really. It's something I have to do. It's just…it was helpful to hear your voice," I confess.

"Then I would speak for eternity if you asked it of me," he/she replies in a husky tone that sets every inch of me alight with happiness.

"Awww," another voice interrupts. "You two are adorable."

"Farah/Felix?" I ask, taking my phone away to glance at it before bringing it back to my ear. 

"Hey, [Name]," Farah/Felix replies with a casual tone.

Nate/Nat clears his/her throat. "This is a private conversation."

"Then maybe you shouldn't have hooked your phone up to the warehouse's Bluetooth speakers," Farah/Felix suggests through a scoffed breath.

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

"Oh dear…," Nate/Nat moans. "I should—"

"Yeah. I better get going as well," I finish. "See you later."

"You too."

I end the call, as it might take Nate/Nat another few minutes to figure out how.
