❛  you look so beautiful.  ❜ ❛  don’t worry about anything.  ❜ ❛  thank god you’re here. i’m freakin’ out.  ❜ ❛  what are you doing ?  ❜ ❛  are you sure you wanna keep this up ?  ❜ ❛  let me give you some advice, do not drink moet on an empty stomach.  ❜ ❛  easy. just take it easy.  ❜ ❛  thank you for helping me.  ❜ ❛  i loved your thong, by the way.  ❜ ❛  it was very interesting meeting you.  ❜ ❛  well, it’s not gonna matter much longer anyway.  ❜ ❛  what’s the good of your job if you can’t abuse the power ?  ❜ ❛  tell me that crazy crush is the reason you work as hard as you do, ‘cause it’s upsetting.  ❜ ❛  i spent two days in bed with a guy, and you get flowers.  ❜ ❛  leave me alone !  ❜ ❛  do you wanna come over to my place before the party ?  ❜ ❛  how many times do we have to go over this ?  ❜ ❛  we haven’t really had that kind of relationship before so i just wanted to make sure you were okay with it.  ❜ ❛  okay. stop it. this is real life. this is not a fantasy.  ❜ ❛  i don’t need to be taken care of.  ❜ ❛  i’m really not gonna be very much fun tonight.  ❜ ❛  who was that ? and where can i get one ?  ❜ ❛  you talked about me the whole time ?  ❜ ❛  why would it be weird ?  ❜ ❛  by the way, your life is insane.  ❜ ❛  i wanna make it up to you.  ❜ ❛  can you please, please find someone else to be creepy with ?  ❜ ❛  we have more things in common than i thought.  ❜ ❛  you okay ? you seem a little bit nervous.  ❜ ❛  will you do me a favor ?  ❜ ❛  that’s not what i’m upset about.  ❜ ❛  come on. humor me.  ❜ ❛  for some reason, girls just don’t like me.  ❜ ❛  you could be a little excited for me.  ❜ ❛  now can we talk about more important stuff ?  ❜ ❛  i’m just gonna have to get over it.  ❜ ❛  i don’t really have a choice.  ❜ ❛  please don’t leave me alone in this.  ❜ ❛  you can do anything, and we both know it.  ❜ ❛  i’m just … i’m a little bit confused.  ❜ ❛  i feel like i found out my favorite love song was written about a sandwich.  ❜ ❛  i don’t know why you keep saying that.  ❜ ❛  can we just get this over with ?  ❜ ❛  i don’t believe you.  ❜ ❛  what about you ? you don’t have any needs ?  ❜ ❛  i don’t really know what i’m doing.  ❜ ❛  for someone who has no insight whatsoever into herself you nailed me right on the head.  ❜ ❛  if i didn’t know you any better i would say that you’d developed a little crush.  ❜ ❛  you don’t know what you’re talking about.  ❜ ❛  but you can’t understand that because you’re … you’re mean and dark and cynical.  ❜ ❛  well, that’s your problem, not mine.  ❜ ❛  what the hell are you looking at me like that for ?  ❜ ❛  well, statistically that was bound to happen.  ❜ ❛  this whole cynical thing is just an act so that you can seem wounded and mysterious and sexy.  ❜ ❛  how could you let this happen to me ?  ❜ ❛  before you say anything, can you just not say anything ?  ❜ ❛  you don’t care about anyone but yourself, do you ?  ❜ ❛  i have no idea what you’re talking about.  ❜ ❛  i just destroyed my life and i didn’t need your help to do it.  ❜ ❛  i think you deserve to be taken care of for a change.  ❜ ❛  you got what you wanted, right ?  ❜ ❛  why would you want to be me when you get to be you ?  ❜ ❛  but the truth is, fighting with you is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.  ❜ ❛  i think there’s a very good chance that i’m falling in love with you.  ❜ ❛  so is this moment everything you hoped for ?  ❜

“why do you have that look on your face?”

“finish what you’re doing, we have to talk.”

“what have you done to yourself?”

“did you do something different with your hair?”

“it doesn’t do any good to get worked up.”

“when was the last time we had a real conversation.”

“are you in the witness protection program, or what?”

“there’s something wrong with me.”

“no, i don’t hate you.”

“hey stupid.”

“we’re aren’t them.”

“looks like i’ll live long enough to make you pay.”

“you know you’re wrong.”

“i don’t understand, why are you doing this?”

“now, before i say anything, promise me you’ll stay calm.”

“what makes me so special?”

“you have no idea what i’ve been through.”

“you really don’t have to do that, not for me.”

“did you really think you’d get a second chance?”

“how about we don’t do that.”

“i have a lot going for me, but humility is not one of them.”

“you’re the worst.”

“i don’t need you right now.”

“don’t just stand there, looking at me.”

“i thought you were supposed to call me.”

“take my hand.”

“i need you.”

“you’re allowed to need help sometimes.”

“for someone who doesn’t like to feel things, you sure feel a lot of it out loud.”

“when this is all over, i want it to be you and me.”

“why won’t you tell me what happened?”

“you don’t know what this means to me.

“i know it doesn’t make sense.”

“i’m trying really hard to keep it together.”

“i know you’re new, but we do things a little differently here.”

“your voice is putting me to sleep.”

“did you find what you were looking for?”

"you knew and you didn’t even warn me?”

“well, i guess that’s broken.”

“i thought it was part of the act.”

“you think u don’t know you’re only here because they sent you?”

“you promised to call me if you didn’t know what to wear.”

“you can keep a secret, can’t you?”

“how could you do this to me?”

“put the gun down, dearest. i have news!”

“i know you don’t have any reason to trust me, but you need to know something.”

“if you’re here to tell me what happened last night, someone beat you to it.”

“people think i’m weird.”

“i think i’m losing myself again.”

“you can’t be here.”

“i wish you’d come to the funeral.”

“do you know what today is?”

“so, you broke my favourite mug… and you’re breaking up with me?”

“i need to get out.”

“it’s like i’m cursed or something.”

“you are remarkably well-behaved tonight, what have you been up to?”

“you gonna eat that?”

“sir, the pony rides are for children only.”

“i don’t want you to worry about that anymore.”

“we’ll never make it in time.”

“you’d be late for your own funeral.”

“you should have seen it coming.”

“oh, good, you’re here! hold this.”

“why can’t you just be happy for me?”

“on a scale of one to ten, how do you feel about nachos right now?”

“is this how you flirt with everyone?”

“how much longer till we’re there?”

“what have you done?”

“it’s time for you to repay that debt you owe me.”

“where did you get that? who gave it to you?”

“what kind of mother has thoughts like that?”

“i know I haven’t been what you needed, but i’m here, and i wanna help.”

“i never want to hear you say that again.”

“you’re all i have.”

“i know it’s not perfect, but i did follow the recipe this time.”

“i was doing so well until you showed up.”

“don’t eat that! i made it ‘specially for our guest.”

“it’s not that i don’t like my life, it’s that i don’t have the energy to enjoy it.”

“how can you stand this place?”

“don’t take this the wrong way, but you don’t exactly blend in.”

“you need to stop.”

“i don’t like that look, what happened?”

“is that seriously your password?”

“what’s your problem?”

“you had no right to use it without asking.”

“oh, wow, you weren’t kidding.”

“i couldn’t trust my own parents to protect me.”

“i’m surprised you haven’t been arrested yet. wait, no, i’m not.”

“why do you want to help me?”

“ten bucks for that piece of crap?”

“we have to hurry, they’re coming!”

“hey, look what came in the mail!”

“do you want to get a drink or something?”

“please tell me you didn’t eat that.”

“the worst part is you didn’t even notice.”

“if i wanted help, i would have asked.”

“wanna tell me what’s going on with your grades?”

“you need to leave.”

“talk to me, okay? i need to know what’s going on.”

“i do blame you.”

“sometimes life deals you a bad hand, but you can still play your cards right and win.”

“you’re no longer useful to me.”

❛ What happened? ❜

❛ How are your injuries? ❜

❛ Just promise me you’ll stay here. ❜

❛ You can’t blame yourself. ❜

❛ You know I’m here for you, right? ❜

❛ You gotta be more careful. ❜

❛ I meant… How are you holding up? ❜

❛ You’re avoiding my question. ❜

❛ I think the worst of it’s over now. ❜
