Ashes to Ashes

If I’ve learned anything this year, it’s that life’s too fucking short. I wasted too much time being angry and bitter.

I’m already plotting what excuse I’m gonna give so I can get out of here.

Each of us knew the terrible truth, that the people who know you best have the power to hurt you the worst.

“There’s nothing Alex could tell me about you that would change my mind.”

They don’t know what love is. They’re just hopped up on hormones.

I mean, I don’t think I could find even one or two couples in the whole school who are really, truly in love.

It’s funny, the stuff I used to think was a big deal. Now I realize that none of it fucking matters.

When people love each other as much as you did, the love doesn’t just go away. No matter what.

That’s why I have to marry you, Lil, so I can stop this vicious cycle. Our kids would be so good-looking.

I can come up with a million excuses. The problem is that I don’t buy a single one.
