    Summary

    Was talking always this exhausting? She honestly hasn’t been on enough dates in recent years to compare. Unbidden, her mind drifts to the little bench that forms a right angle out the back entrance of The Bear, and the not-cigarette breaks she takes there. She’s never tired after those: Carmy knows she can be grumpy and awkward and silent during a long day of work, and he likes talking to her anyway.

    -

    Sydney's going on dates. Carmy is not jealous. They're both nailing this "being normal" thing.

    Summary

    “Hey, look I wanted to—"

    “Oh, hello.” She says in a much kinder voice than he’s expecting. “We’re not open yet. The Beef window opens in about two hours, though.”

    Carmy’s eyes scrunch. “No. N-no that’s not. I came because I want to talk.”

    Sydney’s giving him an odd look now so he elaborates. “About last night?” He tries and she’s still giving him confused eyes.

    “I um. I’m-I’m really sorry, I think you might have me confused with someone else. Do we know each other?”

     
    **********

    overnight, sydney wakes up remembering anything and everything.

    everything except carmen.
