I’d blacked out and tried to fucking kill her while she slept beside me, and rather than taking that as the most obvious fucking sign that she should’ve sprinted away from me as far as she could get, she was determined to hold me closer. She didn’t spend even a second of her time acting like she believed I was a full-blown monster. She never stopped looking at me like I could walk on water if I just decided one day that I might try it.
