I leaned back against him and rested my cheek on his shoulder. I could feel the river water dripping off of him. "Thank you" I whispered. When I looked up, I saw he was crying.
Elizabeth ChandlerSometimes I think that love is one big fairy tale. I wonder if people who say they are in love, if โ really โ theyโve just talked themselves into it. They want it so badly, they kind of make it happen. They fake it until they start believing their own story. Maybe thatโs just sour grapes or something. Maybe because it doesnโt happen to me, I donโt want to think it happens to anyone else.

Want to go?" ---------------------------------------- "No. Sorry." "Since it's a catered thing, at a restaurant, I'll pick you up at- what did you say?" "I'm sorry. I can't do it." ---------------------------------------- "You're busy?" "I just can't do it," I said.
