The End of the F***ing World

[Alyssa] Sometimes, I look at him and I think, “Are you a bit dead?” 

Alyssa: Put your tongue in my ear.

[James] Being with Alyssa had started to make me feel things. She made me feel things. And I didn’t like it at all.

Alyssa: I can’t go home. Like, ever. You can.

James: I don’t want to.

Alyssa: Do you want me?

James: What?

Alyssa: Do you want me, or do you just go along with things?

James: I want you.

Alyssa: I’m gonna go to my dad’s. You can come if you want.

James: Yeah. OK.

Alyssa: James?

James: Yeah?

Alyssa: Will you cuddle me?

Song:   Soko - We Might Be Dead By Tomorrow.

[James] After the murder, other crimes seemed pretty easy by comparison.

[Alyssa] Some people get embarrassed dancing. I don’t. I think it’s when I feel most myself. I get embarrassed talking. Well, after talking. When I realize I’ve said something stupid.

Alyssa: We should do this naked.

[Alyssa] Something like that.

[James] As a rule, I didn’t dance, but it was hard to say no to Alyssa.

Alyssa: Hey, close your eyes.

James: What?

Alyssa: Close your eyes. I promise I won’t look.

[Alyssa] I think he is properly beautiful. But he’ll never start anything, so...

Song:  Hank Williams - Settin' the Woods on Fire.

[James] That was the day I learned that silence is really loud. Deafening.

[Alyssa] It’s like we’re at the edge of the world. Like we’re safe. Only...we’re not.
