“ i don’t believe that , darling . i’m sure there is something i can do to change your mind .. ”

“ oh stop it , you know what i mean . you have a special place in my heart - where all the other assholes are . ”

“ and if i’m too much , find less . nobody is begging you to stay . ”

“ i think your obsession with me is getting a little unhealthy now . you should seek help . ”

“ let me go ! let me let you go ! tell me you don’t want me anymore so i can move on ! ”

“ when you  want  me ,   call  me ,   i’ll  drop  anything and everything ...   for you . ”

“ i seen what you’ve been posting on your socials .. almost like you’re deliberately trying to hurt me . ”

“ let me get this straight , ya new man treating you like shit … now you wanna come running back to me ? you got a lot of fucking nerve ma . get the fuck out of here . ”

“ so what — you think you’re better off without me ? y’ wanna run off and find someone better ? be my guest . just know you’re fucking delusional . anyone after me is a 𝗱 𝗼 𝘄 𝗻 𝗴 𝗿 𝗮 𝗱 𝗲 . ”

the easily impressed woman couldn’t help the shit - eating grin slowly sneaking onto her countenance . good god , she couldn’t help it . he was undeniably dreamy . “ no it’s not a crime .. unless i’m not the 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 girl you’ve used that on . ”
