Summary
Eddie shifts in his seat, drums his fingers against the table. “Look,” he says, “I have this policy where I don’t pry, but it’s just that like, you’re Chrissy Cunningham, you know? Total goody two shoes. And if you want something stronger, I’ll help you, I swear, just…” He pauses again. “Have you tried taking the edge off the old-fashioned way?”
It takes an embarrassingly long moment for her to get it, but when she does, she can feel herself blushing, furious and blotchy all the way up to the roots of her hair.
“Oh,” she squeaks out. “You mean like— like? Sex?”

Summary
The old wiring in the payphone made Robin's voice crackle and pop. "You've got to be kidding me."
"I'm not," Chrissy whispered. Across the service station, Eddie was talking animatedly to the woman who appeared to run the place. It was unlikely he could hear anything she said, but still, she kept her voice low. "His van broke down—"
"This like a goddamned movie!" Robin crowed. Chrissy could almost hear her roommate pacing around their apartment. "You run into the love of your life—"
Chrissy nearly dropped the phone. "We were just friends!"
"Me and Steve are just friends. You and Eddie are more like star-crossed lovers or ships in the night or something."
Cheeks flaming, Chrissy shot a glance over at Eddie again. He was looking at her–shit–and smiled when she caught his gorgeous gaze. Her heart did a series of pirouettes and backflips as she tried to grin back without drooling. She wasn't sure she managed it, so she returned to the phone.
"I just wanted to tell you that I might be out late. That's all."
Robin's tone was just this side of condescending. "I'm pretty sure you found exactly what you want on the side of I-65."- Language:
