01:30You do realize that would involve you actually going up and talking to him, right?
01:35And not just pining for him from afar like you've been doing for the last two weeks.
01:39I can't just go up and start talking to him.
01:44I don't have the luxury of assuming every hot guy I see is also into guys.
01:49How would you feel if some random guy came up to you and started hating on you?
01:55Hmm.
01:56I mean, I feel like I handled it well when you came out to me.
02:00Look at us now, man.
02:02You're missing the point.
02:04No, I'm not.
02:05I just don't think the fact that you don't know whether he's gay or not has nothing to do with that you're not gonna go up there and speak to him.
02:11It's a pretty significant factor.
02:13Oh, really?
02:14Yeah.
02:15Okay, how about we look at the facts, right?
02:17Okay.
02:18You're interested in a guy that you don't know is gay or not.
02:20But that also happens to be the exact same reason as to why you're not gonna go talk to the guy?
02:25I don't know.
02:26That just seems pretty convenient to me.
02:28That's all I'm saying.
02:29Idiot.
02:30You've never been able to ask anybody out.
02:32Like, ever.
02:33Even before you knew you were gay, that development did not help the situation at all.
02:37Jenny McClendon does not count wrong.
02:39And neither do I.
02:42Because technically you never really asked me out.
02:45Okay.
02:46You kind of just told me you had a crush on me and then started to cry for like 45 minutes.
02:52Okay.
02:53But it's cool.
02:54I got a solution to all this.
02:57Alright?
02:58I got you.
02:59What?
03:00I got you.
03:01Amari?
03:02I got you.
03:03Amari, what are you doing?
03:09Ah, you're fucking crazy.
03:12Oh dear.
03:27He's definitely gay.
03:28Or, or, or-or bi.
03:30Or um, or pansexual.
03:32Or pansexual.
03:34You got a shot, okay?
03:36You definitely got a shot.
03:40Ow.
03:41Yo, a simple thank you would have suffice, bro.
03:43How the hell did you find that out?
03:46Well, I was like...
03:48Hey, what's up, man?
03:50So I want to get a book from my gay best friend.
03:53Do you got any suggestions?
03:55And that's when he was like, yeah, man.
03:57Got just the thing for you.
03:59That is not at all what he sounds like.
04:00Shut up. This is my story, okay?
04:02Okay.
04:03So, he was like, yeah, man.
04:06Got just the thing for you.
04:08And then proceed to show me a bunch of LGBTQ themed books that he liked.
04:11Yeah.
04:16He works at Barnes & Noble.
04:21It wouldn't be a stretch to believe he's straight
04:24and also familiar with a few LGBTQ book authors.
04:29Plus, plus, plus, plus, liking gay-themed pop culture does not a gay person make.
04:35You should know you are the biggest Ariana fan I know.
04:40No, no, no, no, no.
04:41And don't think.
04:42I don't know.
04:43That's the real reason you let me call you Ari.
04:47Ari, you're damn right.
04:50She's extremely hot.
04:52And she's an amazing vocalist.
04:55You're goddamn right.
04:55I don't want you to call me by her name.
04:57But you didn't let me finish, okay?
04:58Okay.
04:59After he gave me the paper, he was like,
05:01My ex was a really big reader and she introduced me to a lot of those authors.
05:04That's why I was like,
05:05Oh, she must have been happy he worked at a Barnes & Noble.
05:08To which he responded,
05:09Get this.
05:10No.
05:10My ex was a guy.
05:12And the best part about our breakup was canceling his rewards account.
05:16So, thanks to my sleuthing, you don't have any more excuses to go talk to him.
05:26Hey, hey, don't ever use the word sleuthing again.
05:32Guess what?
05:34We're not leaving until you go over there and talk to him, okay?
05:39No, wait, no, wait, no.
05:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, dude.
05:43Dude, you're my ride.
05:44Oh, yeah.
05:46Are you kidding me right now?
05:51Do your thing.
05:52Do your thing.
05:53Yeah.
06:00Okay.
06:02Okay, okay, okay, okay.
06:06You can do this.
06:08You can do this.
06:12Okay.
06:12You got this.
06:18Okay.
06:19Okay, okay.
06:26Nope.
06:28Dang it.
06:29I got this.
06:31Attention, Barnes & Noble shoppers.
06:33The time is now 8.30 and our store will be closing in 30 minutes.
06:36Please make your final selections and bring your items to the register located at the back
06:41of the store.
06:42Thank you for shopping with us and have a wonderful evening.
06:44Shit.
06:45No, I'm sorry.
06:48I'm sorry.
06:49I'm sorry.
06:51Good.
06:51Oh, my God.
08:21Do you need help finding anything?
08:35Hi.
08:40Thanks.
08:43Uh, hey.
08:45You're welcome.
08:47You okay?
08:51Yes, you're fine.
08:53I mean, I'm fine.
08:55I'm great.
08:57Thanks.
08:58Hey, I know you from somewhere, don't I?
09:01Yeah.
09:03We had a few classes together last semester.
09:06Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:08Carlos, right?
09:10You remembered.
09:11Yeah, I have a thing for nice eyes.
09:17Well, I'm gonna get back to it.
09:20Just let me know if you need help with anything.
09:22It's good to see you again.
09:24You too, man.
09:26I don't know why I said that.
09:33Uh, Milo, hold on.
09:37There is something.
09:39Yeah?
09:40I was wondering, I mean, I was curious if you might wanna hang out sometime with me.
09:52I mean, no, not like a date, though.
09:55Or it could be if you want to be, but only because I want to be.
09:59No.
10:00But if you want it to be, we can, and I...
10:02Uh, what?
10:04I mean, I'm flattered, I guess.
10:08Um, but you're just not really my type.
10:14Oh.
10:18Where y'all magazines at?
10:20Oh, uh, well, there's those right there.
10:22Uh, but we also have some on the other side of the store.
10:24Here, come on, let me show you.
10:29Yo, what happened?
10:44I'm...
10:47not his type.
10:50You're not his...
10:52No, no, no, no, no, Ari, it's alright.
10:55I...
10:57I'm actually...
10:59okay with it.
11:02You are?
11:04Yeah, yeah.
11:06I mean, don't get me wrong.
11:09That was embarrassing as shit, and I would like to crawl in a hole and die now, but...
11:15I did it.
11:17I mean, four hours ago, I wasn't even sure I'd get that far.
11:22Oh, yeah, progress, man.
11:24It's good.
11:26Hey.
11:27And don't even worry about it.
11:28Screw that guy, okay?
11:30You're a total catch.
11:31He's the one missing out on everything.
11:33Hey, but you know what this means now, right?
11:36This new profound courage of yours?
11:38We finally get the test of them that they gave us.
11:42No, I don't want to go to one.
11:43Stop.
11:44Hey, hey, hey.
11:45Baby steps.
11:46Okay.
11:48All right.
11:49All right.
11:50All right, let's go.
11:51Good walk, good walk.
11:53All right, man.
11:54You're good to go.
11:56Take care.
11:57Next in line.
11:58Oh, this is actually a really good book.
12:15You know, he actually came to do a reading back when this first release and I got to hang out and talk with him for like an hour after and he was really chill.
12:24Yeah, yeah, I remember that.
12:27I was so mad because I was out of town that week.
12:32Uh, well, you know, the sequel comes out in like a month and he did say he was planning on doing another tour.
12:38So I guess you'll just have to make sure you can come to the next one.
