[Oh shit. Oh damn. Fuck. Dammit. Leon tunes out the other guy's reaction for a good couple seconds, because he's distracted by a haunting realization: he's still in love with his ex.
And his ex is baseball.
It's like he just watched her walk into a room at a party looking so fine right when he thought he was over her, and got punched in the gut by her booty in that skirt. Except the booty in the skirt is the way a ball looks when it clips just right past a batter and hits the net and hovers there for a moment and then bites the dust with a thunk and sends up a little dirt cloud he can practically smell even from 60 feet out. That's the booty. Ohhh mmmmman is that embarrassing. His heart leaps in his chest with excitement just at throwing the pitch . . .
God, he's such a loser!! This is so uncool!
But then he comes back to Earth (or, Cerealia. Tellus. whatever) and catches the other guy's shock, parses what he's saying, and at least it's okay to be smug about looking like a badass, right? Of course it is! Leon was already grinning, stupidly, but it only gets wider.]
What, you never saw one o' those before? 'Course you have! If you think that was a fluke, how about another one?
