Lynn: Jeremy, hey! ①Fancy meeting you here. I’m actually here to meet Dan for the first time and I’m pretty nervous about it. We’ve been chatting for weeks now, as you’re well aware, so I can’t believe I’m finally gonna see him face to face.
Jeremy: Yeah, about that…I…
Lynn: ②And how perfect is it that you’re here to give him the once over, to make sure he’s as much of a gentleman in person as he is online? I can’t imagine he’d be anything other, could you?
Jeremy: Well, I can promise you won’t have to worry about how genuine his feelings are.
Lynn: And why is that, pray tell?
Jeremy: Because I know for a fact that he truly cares about you and would never, ever hurt you.
Lynn: How could you know all this?
Jeremy: That’s the thing…I…
Lynn: I know.
Jeremy: You do?
Lynn: Yeah, it’s pretty obvious.
Jeremy: How’d you figure it out?
Lynn: How else could you know all these things about him and his feelings for me? You obviously became friends with him under a fake name, to make sure that he was a good guy. ③You’re always looking out for me and I appreciate your concern. But I trust him, and you should too.
Jeremy: Of course I trust him, I AM him!!
Lynn: You’re what?
Jeremy: I’m him. He’s me. We are one in the same.
Lynn: But how is that possible? How could you betray me like this?
Jeremy: Because I love you, and—
Lynn: You what?
Jeremy: I didn’t have the courage to tell you. You’ve always seen me as just a friend, and I was afraid I’d be stuck in the friend zone forever. Seeing you date other guys and hearing the stories you’d tell about the way they treated you, it just broke my heart again and again and I couldn’t take it anymore.
Lynn: That still doesn’t give you the right to pull me into some 1)deceptive plot of 2)seduction. I’m not some stupid mark you can con into bed.
Jeremy: How long have we known each other? I’d like to think you know me better than that by now.
Lynn: I thought I did. I thought we were friends. But now I just feel lost and alone. I don’t know up from down, right from wrong.
Jeremy: You are not alone. Please try to understand. I’ve had a crush on you for as long as I can remember. But I’ve also been your friend this whole time too, and that is never going to change. I just wanna be more intimate with you. I want to 3)snuggle up at night when it’s cold, or I could hold your hair back when you feel like you’re gonna throw up. Lynn: Ewwww…
Jeremy: I wanna be your go-to guy. Just gimme a chance…
Lynn: I…I…I need some time to think. I’ll message you later. And I mean Jeremy, not Dan.
琳恩:杰里米,嗨!真高兴在这里遇到你。其实我是来这里第一次与丹见面,我现在超紧张。你也清楚,我们至今已经聊了几个星期了,所以我真的不敢相信我最终会和他见面。
杰里米:呃,关于那个……我……
琳恩:你能够在这里鉴定他的人品真是太好了,你就可以确认他是不是跟在网上聊天时的那位绅士一样了?我真是不敢想象他要不是我想的那样,那该如何是好,你也是这样想的吗?
杰里米:好吧,我可以向你保证你不用担心他对你的感情有多真。
琳恩:为什么那么说,说来听听?
杰里米:因为我知道一个事实是,他真的关心你,而且他绝对不会,不会伤害你。
琳恩:你怎么会知道这些东西?
杰里米:有件事……我……
琳恩:我知道了。
杰里米:你知道?
琳恩:嗯,太明显了。
杰里米:你是怎么知道真相的?
琳恩:不然你是怎么知道这些关于他的一切以及他对我的感觉?显然你已经用一个假名与他成为了朋友,就是为了确认他是个好人。你总是密切关注着我,而我很感激你的关心。但是我相信他,你也应该相信他。
杰里米:我当然相信他,我就是他啊!!
琳恩:你是什么来着?
杰里米:我就是他,他就是我。我们是同一个人。
琳恩:但是怎么可能?你怎么可以这样欺骗我?
杰里米:因为我爱你,而且—
琳恩:你说什么?
杰里米:我没有勇气告诉你。你总是仅仅把我当作朋友,而我害怕我会永远地被困在友情地带里。当我看着你和其他男生约会,听着你跟我讲述他们是如何对待你,我一次又一次地心碎,我再也受不了了。
琳恩:那你也没有权利把我拉进这一个充满诱惑力的骗局里。我不是某个你可以骗上床的傻瓜。
杰里米:我们彼此认识了多久了?我想你现在会比以前更了解我。
琳恩:我以为我会。我以为我们是朋友。但是现在我只觉得不知所措和寂寞。我不懂如何辨别是非。
杰里米:你不是一个人。请你试着去理解我的感受。从我记事以来我就一直喜欢着你。但这些日子以来我也一直都是你的朋友,而这种关系是永远不可能改变的。我只是想更靠近你一点。我想在寒冷的夜晚依偎在你的身旁,或是当你想要吐的时候我可以在你身后拿着你的头发。
琳恩:呃……
杰里米:我想成为能够为你排难解忧的人。就给我一次机会吧……
琳恩:我……我……我需要时间考虑一下。我会稍后发信息给你。我是说杰里米,不是丹。
