“On a sigh he brought up his hand and used one long finger to brush a dark curl away from my face. With the saddest look in his eyes, he said, "A girl needs to be held right now, and comforted, and told that everything is going to be okay. I'm sorry I can't do that for you. I don't have any of that left." "I have a little," I said, "and I'll lend it to you.”

“A re you going to kiss me now or what?” I finally blurted out.“No,” he said.“Then why is your face like two inches away from mine?” I asked.“I just like to look at you,” he said seriously. “I want to look at you.” His expression was almost pained.”

“You love me?""Yes, you great lummox. I love you."He lets out a sigh. "Sweet Camulos! It's about time.”

“Alex sat playing with the remote, turning it over in his hand. A long moment passed, and then he cleared his throat."Look...

I'm sorry." A smile grew slowley across my face. "Yes you have," I said "But apology accepted.”

“She sprinted after him, grabbing him by the shoulder just as she caught up. “I … I am sorry.”He let out a deep sigh. “As am I.” He yanked his shoulder free and continued walking back inside the castle.”
