[color=fff200]”Thank you...For being here for me...”[/color]

Alexander had a rare, peaceful expression on his face '[color=aba000][i]You know...it's kind of funny just how much my life has changed in such a short time.[/i][/color]' Even after all this time, he still wasn't used to such heartfelt words of gratitude. Even when she was still in so much pain, she was actually able to thank [i]him[/i]. '[color=aba000][i]Even though I couldn't really [/i]do[i] anything but try and pick up the pieces. I still don't understand how someone as nice as you could think of yourself as a [/i]shame[/color]' he transitioned from rubbing her head to running his hand through her hair out of impulse '[color=aba000][i]I never really knew anyone like you back in my old life, so I'm not always sure how to handle you.[/i][/color]' he shook his head '[color=aba000][i]When I think back to my old life...before all the magic happened...[/i][/color]'

[b][i]"Life sucks kid; we live, and then [color=2e3192]we[/color] die."[/i]

[i]"Don't get your hopes up; no one's coming to get any of [color=8493ca]us[/color], that's why we're here"[/i]

[i]"They're[/i] paid [i]to care! That's all [color=440e62]we[/color] are to them; a job"[/i]

[i]"...why didn't they want [color=aba000]me[/color]...?"[/i][/b]

'[color=aba000][i]...none of it feels real. Like everything before was just some horrible dream. I guess there's a part of me that's afraid that [/i]this[i] is the dream. And one day I'll just wake up in that rundown apartment. I...I think that might finally break me, I might actually go through with it.[/i][/color]' He continued running his hand through Lily's hair, almost like he was in a trance, as he felt sleep start to claim him. '[color=aba000][i]It's kind of nice to be wanted.[/i][/color]' As he slipped into dreams, his transformation came undone, and he slumped backwards, one of his hand falling limp on Lily's shoulders
