please believe that things are good with me, and even when they're not, they will be soon enough.

I remember going to sleep that night, and i realized something. Something that I think is important. I realized that throughout the course of the evening, I wasn't happy about you and her breaking up. Not at all.
I never once thought that it would mean you might start liking me. All I cared about was the fact that you got really hurt. And I guess I realized at that moment that I really did love you. Because there was nothing to gain, and that didn't matter.

i finished the book tonight.
and it was good.
