“What? I’m serious!” Tony laughed. “You know I’m an asshole so why even try to deny it.” He gave Summer a playful push on the shoulder. “No one has laughed that hard at that particular joke in a long time.”
“You’re not an asshole, Tony, you’re just full of shit,” she teased. Fishing in her back pocket, she pulled out a five and passed it over the counter. “Get your coffee, nerd.”
“Nerd is an offensive term.” he laughed, “We prefer scientifically proficient.” He told the cashier his order and handed her his debit card. “Awesome. Now where you wanna sit?”
“There’s a couch back here that’s practically got my name on it this semester,” she told him, carefully picking up her chocolate. “How about geek? I like geek. I’m a renaissance geek.”
Tony grabbed his coffee off the counter and took a sip. “Well lead the way geek.” He laughed following behind her.
Summer sprawled herself into half the couch, back to the armrest and knee bent up across the cushion. Her bookbag thunked to the floor and she blew over the top of her hot chocolate. “Still think you’re irresistible, nerd boy?”
