Now I see fire Burning the Tree

  Why can you not just tell me what you’re trying to say about me and Jade? I really don’t understand.

I'm sorry. I'm kind of really mentally retarded.

  For fuck sake, Annabelle. Don’t piss around.

Aw. You hearing things again? That's really not good, you know. Not at all.

  Roll with what? I really don’t understand what you’re tryna say about me and Jade.

Say what? I didn't say anything.

  What are you getting at, Annabelle?

I might be weird, but just go with it.

  No, no, I mean, I wouldn’t ever ask her to change. But if she changed— because she wanted to and it benefitted her, I would be happy for her.

You never know though. Something might happen and things would change.

  No, not at all. I don’t want her to change, Jade is who she is and I respect that. I have a soft spot for her, sure, she’s literally the female version of me, she understands me, she knows how to push my buttons and her, I. I get why she is the way she is, but really, she isn’t a bad person, she’s a nice girl, I know that, she just doesn’t show it.

So what it is, is the fact that you want her. The way she is. Which just makes things more complicated. I'm sorry about that.

  Have you met Jade? She’s indepedent and strong and certainly doesn’t change for me— especially me. And she doesn’t play games, either, she just gives it you straight and I’m certainly not going to play games with her.

So basically what it is, is that you like but. She won't change and you don't want to play games. Am I right?

  Jade doesn’t do relationships.

Well maybe she would change for you. If you pull of the jealousy thing. Well no. She's just probably going to do the whole I can get better thing. Be the one she can't get. The whole pride and prejudice thing.

  What?

Nah, nothing. I think just you and Jade would make a tremendous couple. From top to bottom.

Gorgeous ginger Lydia. I think someone’s calling me. -laughs- But my last name is not Martin anymore, sweetie. I’m a Whittemore now.

It is about fucking time to show your pretty face here! My oh my, it has been a while. I missed you in my life. -pouts- A whitt... OH! My god. You babe, done good. Congrats to the sunshine of my life.
