“We?" I asked.Of course. I'm not leaving you alone on this, no matter what. You know I'd never abandon you.”

“And I got the point that I should leave you alone, but we both know that I'm not that strong.”

“I would never even consider leaving you. No matter who else abandons me...or looks down on me...or spits in my face...I will stay with you to the end.”

“Is my mom all right?""She's perfectly fine. don't worry, Bella, I have no quarrel with her. Unless you didn't come alone, of course." Light, amused."I'm alone." I'd never been more alone in my entire life.”

“So you planned this? The whole time we were together, you were scheming some way to screw up royally so I'd leave you alone?" "No, Luce," he said, grabbing my hand back. "So I'd leave you alone.”

“Because if you love someone, you have to be brave and tell them. Don't let them go.And if you say no I'm going to spend the rest of my life trying to convince you I'm right. I promise. I won't leave you alone. Because it's not about who's whats or wheres or anything. We should be together. The other stuff doesn't matter. That's all.”
