“He lied. I lied. Any love that starts out under a lie is bound to kill you. I just didn't want to die on my feet.”

“you, Perry, you deserve a lifetime of servitude. Eons of groveling.”

“I love you Perry,” he whispered, mouth moving in my hair. “I love you so fucking much. And I’m losing myself. I’m losing myself to you and I don’t care anymore because there’s never been a better feeling in the whole fucking world. I love you. So much. Too much. Always.”

“No matter what happened, he was Dex and I was Perry and that combination only led to trouble.”

“You are all mine, even if you run. I will find you because a soul needs its other half to truly live.”

“I was trying to be a better man, Perry. For you.” I shifted in my seat. “Dex…” “And I’ll keep trying,” he quickly said, voice low and somber. “Until I get it right.”
