self-destruction is my new major, screw business. 

me: nina, i love you.

nina: you were the one that told me to go.

me: i know, nina, but i love you and i can't change it.

nina: i don't know if i can love you like i used to.

me: but...

nina: but fucking nothing. do you know how long it took for me to stop crying every other night? to stop going to the library to study because i just knew you would be there? to stop myself from seeing if you were okay?

me: nina, i -

nina: don't you DARE say a thing, cooper. 

me: ...

nina: i can't believe you. not after... not after carter. not after your lies. i can't be with you either. and it's not possible for me to be your friend if you're going to try and get me back every time we hang out like this. 

me: please.

nina: get out.

me: just let me in!

nina: isn't that fucking rich, coming from you? get the hell out.

me: okay, i'm sorry nina. i'm so damn sorry that i let you go like that.

nina: go.

me: see you in school?
