What you do… What you do, Nicky, when you love someone is you believe the person that you love. That’s what trust is. So when you told me that you believed me, I believed you. Instead of looking at a catalog of all the things you’ve said in the past because I am fucking seeing you in the moment, in every moment. I am looking at you, and you just… you don’t fucking do that for me. You don’t. You just… You chose a version of me a long time ago, and that’s all I am, and… then you get… you get frustrated when I’m not it because then you don’t know who to be, and you know what? It’s bad, Nicky. It’s a bad fucking quality because you have made it impossible, impossible for me to exist! SOMETHING VERY BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN (2026) Created by Haley Z. Boston

He hid his face against her, who was warm and like sunlight. She seemed to have sunlight inside her. Her heart beating seemed like sunlight upon him.
