“You should know that since you’ve already called me your girlfriend, I’ve claimed the title and there are no take-backs.”

“I could have hurt you,” I said. “I was more worried you’d hurt yourself.” “Better me than you.” “Don’t say shit like that,” he snapped and threw the towel in the sink. More tears slipped from my eyes. “I couldn’t live with myself if I hurt you.”

“I see you fading away, baby girl. You’re going fast and it’s scaring the shit out of me.”

“You will fall. You will fall many times. Sometimes the fall will hurt more than you ever thought possible and you will feel like you don’t want to get back up. Like right now, for example. But you will, and when you do, you will be stronger.”

“You can still be upset with me while I hold you,” he said.

“If that fucker ever shows up, we run together or we fight together, but more importantly, we protect each other together. Promise me, Shi.” “I promise.”
