The After Effect
[HIGHEST RANK: #9 in People] "Just because you don't like him back doesn't give him the right to treat you like that." "Sometimes it's so hard for people to accept certain things, that, it just drives them off the cliff." "Even until the end, you're saying no... I guess this is why I liked you so much." "SHUT THE DOOR!!" "One of us isn't going to leave here at all. One of us will have to be carried out." "If you're going to be like that... then don't even think of coming near her." "It'll be like this from now on. This dark... this quiet... and the last face I'll see... will be yours."

Someone Willing to Stay
"Damn it, Mason, you can't fix me. I'm not some used car that needs an oil change." I'm standing at the edge of my driveway. If I take one step towards that house, then I go back to my life.

"I'm shattered, Mason. Like a dusty vase that's been ignored for too long." "You know the best thing about broken vases, Mel? You just need three things to make them whole." I decide to go along with his speech. "Faith, trust, and pixie dust?" I muse. "Tape, glue, and someone willing to fix it. And I'm right here, Mel."Complete
