oh Alaska, a princess(not really, rich girl more like it) whose world fell to crumble once reality hit her in the face, and a boss that's way to eager to judge.
I'll say that her reason for runing away from her life was, well, a proof of how much she lived in a cotton candy.
I rolled my eyes with all the- you desereve better, she's a spoiled princess, he looked at her with admiration, she finally got a wake up call, she wasn't returning to her previos life that were a big fat lie, he was running away, he was still running, hot hot hot, but we shouldn't, well maybe we should just a little, and a little more, you lied to me? and I always wanted to be that thing but my life didn't let me.
all that was bullshit (forgive my french).
what was nice? that she tried really hard, that he learned to appreciate her and that she knew she should go when she did, and that he went to get her back.
