At some point in our lives we never know what the right thing to do is. We're torn. We know what the right decision is but that also means betraying the person we love most. And sometimes our jobs. But where do we go when we have no where to turn to? When it seems like everything bad keeps on piling up one right after the other and we just want to explode.

"I don't understand why you don't just get your own place," Alison said as they just had their food delivered.
"Why would I do that when I have everything here?" He said as he lifted the cover off of their plates, revealing their breakfast.
Since Alison had spending more time with Mark since their trip to Canada, she ended up leaving a few clothes at his place including toiletries and some makeup. It worked especially because they sometimes had the same times for their shifts. She had to admit that she really enjoyed getting to be with Mark lately. It was such a different feeling she had with Mark then what she had with Anthony.
"I guess now looking at it I kind of see your point," she shrugged her shoulders as she took a piece of bacon and dipped in her maple syrup.

"It's just like pineapple on pizza. Some things just shouldn't be together," he replied shaking his head and taking a bite of his omelette and she gasped.
"Don't tell me you're one of those."
"Don't tell me you're one of those who likes pineapple on pizza."

"I just don't, okay!"
"Have you ever even tried it?" She asked.
"I did and I had a really bad experience at a pizza place I ate it at."
"Okay, I get that, actually. But what if I took you to my favorite pizza place here in Seattle and had you try it? Would you?"
"Okay," he let out a sigh.
"I'll even pay for it if that makes you feel better," she said as she patted his cheek, laughing at his reaction.
"You're too kind."
"I know," she sassed back and flicked her blonde hair off of her shoulder making them laugh.
They enjoyed their morning full of laughs and getting to know each other even more before they headed into work.
