“"Well, Seth, when you break something and leave it lying there for someone else to pick up the pieces, you don’t get much say in how they put it back together."”
Alexis Winston -
“"Number two on my list of things I missed the most while in California would definitely be the weather.""What’s number one? Something food related, I bet?" He smiled as if he had me all figured out. What a moron. Wiping the tears from my cheeks and not caring whether he noticed the action, I turned and looked at him, raising my eyebrows, as if to ask, "Are you stupid?" After a moment of staring at my face, he seemed to figure it out, "Oh," was his response.”
Alexis Winston and Seth Keller -
“Before I could think about phrasing it properly, I blurted out the large question floating around in my head. "Do you love her?""I don’t have an easy answer for that one, Lex," he sounded dejected, tired, and sad. Trying to keep him talking, I asked, "What makes it difficult?"He didn’t say anything, just looked at me with that same, you’re-a-moron look I had given him earlier."Oh," I breathed, mimicking his response.”
Alexis Winston and Seth Keller -
“"Damn it, Lex, that’s not what you want, and I know it."Was he kidding me? What I want? Does he live in the same world I do? "It’s not about what I want, it never has been," I worked up enough anger to throw those words out there, but it left me quickly, and all I could manage now was a little frustration. My head dropped, and I let my shoulders slump in exhaustion and defeat, "Why would it start being about what I want now?"”
Seth Keller and Alexis Winston
