Ethan

I am.

Cameron

You’re right, Hammy, we are so cool.

Hayden

You should come to the party. Best parties here.

Ethan, dude, let me post a photo. You’ve got to see this girl.

Cameron

I’ll stay for the party next time.

Whoops, roommate just got in, got to do something.

Cameron Porter has created a private chat.

Ethan

Hammy’s starting to worry me. What’s up?

Cameron

Do you remember Manning Passing Academy five years ago?

Ethan

Were you there when I was there?

Cameron

Do you remember the kid who got stung by a bee the first day and never came back?

Ethan

WAS THAT YOU?

Cameron

I hadn’t even picked up a ball. We were stretching. The very first time Peyton Manning walked over to my group, I got stung. My epi-pen was in my sideline bag. I didn’t want to make a scene. I didn’t feel too bad at first, so I didn’t run and get it.

Ethan

I remember. God, do I remember. A couple of kids really thought you died.

Cameron

Bees get me at the worst times. And in hindsight, I think those were warning signs.

Ethan

That’s a reach. You can’t help what a bee does.
