“Why?” I whispered.
“I had to take you.”
"I chased the money, pretended to be someone else to get it. It got easier the longer I did it... but that's the trap, see? When the deadness gets easier, you know you're sinking deeper, becoming dead yourself."

"But I hated you for something else, too. Right, then and at every moment since you'd left me, all I could think about was you. I wanted your arms around me, your face close to mine. I wanted your smell. And I knew I couldn't - shouldn't - have it. That's what I hated most. The uncertainty of you. You'd kidnapped me, put my life in danger.. but I loved you, too. Or thought I did. None of it made sense"

"And lets face it, you did steal me. But you saved my life, too. And somewhere in the middle, you showed me a place so different and beautiful I can never get it out of my mind. And I can't get you out of there, either. you're stuck in my brain like my own blood vessels."

"I can't save you like that Ty.
What you did to me wasn't this brilliant thing, like you think it was. You took me away from everything - my parents, my friends, my life. You took me to the sand and the heat, the dirt, and isolation. And you expected me to love you. And that's the hardest part. Because I did, or at least I loved something out there."
