Totally Bating You
(My boyfriend and I are saying goodbye after having a bit of time together after I got off of a particularly long and exhausting shift at work. In trying to raise my spirits, we are both being especially affectionate and cutesy.)
Boyfriend: “Have a good night; I love you.”
Me: “I love you too, babe. Thanks for coming and making my night better.”
Boyfriend: “Happy to, my dear. I’ll text you when I get home.”
Me: “I’ll wait with bated breath!” *pauses realizing what that means* “Or… maybe not bated breath…”
Boyfriend: “Babe, please breathe.”
