"okay, how about she has a super big black hat she wears to keep her cover. like kennedy era marilyn monroe" jennifer suggested, glass of red wine in hand while pacing back and forth in bill hader's living room. five months ago she would never think she would be sharing a drink with bill freakin' hader. and she couldn't deny how excited she was.

"oh, my god. marina is the marilyn of barry" bill realized, dropping his pen on the table he sat slouched over, making jennifer release into a fit of giggles. "i think you went into the wrong profession"

"i'll leave the writing to you" jennifer said while getting slight ptsd to having to write what felt like a billion essays on shakespeare in julliard. "where are your kids?"

"at their mothers house. thought you wouldn't want to write and drink wine in front of tiny humans" bill shrugged, picking back up his pen. jennifer has thought it strange that they weren't running around the house like bill had said they usually do.

"are you kidding, i love tiny humans" jennifer exaggerated sipping on her glass of wine. she really wished it was tequila right about now.

"well then i better let them hang around next date" bill said not exactly realizing his choice of words. poor jennifer practically choked on her alcohol, making bill eye's go wide with what i said. "holy shit that was rude of me. i assumed this was a date. oh my fucking god i'm such a dumbass. can you tell i have no game and that i haven't been on the dating scene since-"

"shut. up." jennifer groaned as her usually soft and fragile voice sounded hoarse from almost choking on her beverage. "this...is a date?" she said the words carefully, as if questioning herself. all of the teasing delilah, renée, and ryan has been doing previously really seemed to be getting into jennifer's head.

"i mean we are both drinking wine...at my place...on my couch...and we were literally about to watch pulp fiction-"

"because it's a classic!" jennifer defended now getting off from the couch as if it's nice comfortable cushions were revolting to her. now, jennifer always had a major issue when it came to relationships with stupid boys and that was commitment. she wasn't very good at it. she wasn't happy to admit it, but it was true. and now someone who was her co-worker, her friend, was thinking they were probably going to hook up tonight. jennifer couldn't help but reach for the door. "goodnight hader" she snapped while slamming the door in his face. even though bill tried poorly to. have the girl down, she was already in her car, blazing away.

"he even let his ex-wife have his kids for the night...i'm such a horrible person" jennifer mumbled driving into the large parking lot of the apartment gang's home. jennifer walked in seeing delilah lying in front of the television, which was playing friends. she lightly itched her blue face mask before looking over towards her best friend.

"you're early" delilah noted as jennifer flopped her body dramatically into the couch, face first. "oh boy, what happened"

"he thought...it was...a date" jennifer mumbled through the cushion, making delilah squeal at the news. and delilah wasn't usually a squealer. "he let his ex-wife have the kids for the night. and i bolted and walked out when he called it a date...i hate myself"

"aw. poor commitment issues jennifer" delilah sang, lightly giggling after her line.

"you...are no help" jennifer whined now moving her self under the blanket that delilah sat under.

"you know...i don't think a thirty one year old woman is supposed to be whining into her bestfriend slash roommates arms over her not ugly super famous friend who is into her" delilah thought aloud, leading jennifer to swat her friend in the arm waiting for the terror of the nights events to end. "just wait until renée and ryan here about this..."
