2 a.m. Friends

Post #185: Dedicated to: The Romantics; by Galt Niederhoffer

From Sarah Dessen's What Happened to Goodbye:

" 'When you move a lot, you don't have a lot of entanglements. There's not really time to get all caught up in things. It's simpler.'
He thought about this for a second. 'True. But if you never really make friends, you probably don't have anyone to be your two a.m. Which would kind of suck.'
I just looked at him as he stirred his soup, carrots spinning in the liquid. 'Your what?'
'Two a.m.' He swallowed, then said, 'You know. The person you can call at two a.m. and, no matter what, you can count on them. Even if they're asleep or it's cold or you need to be bailed out of jail. It's, like, the highest level of friendship.' "

Are we two a.m. friends?
