Fake it 'til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died.

I'm also doing a really bad job at the making it part.

The night we met, I was at my lowest.

But you gave me a reason to feel happy again.

For the first time in over a year, I was optimistic.

You and I? We're the same. Don't form attachments. Follow the rules. Don't dream of a future.

Too bad our hearts wouldn't listen.

And this storm we're going through? The one that threatens to rip us apart?

It doesn't care that I'm falling for you.

He unwraps the stick from the foil package and places it on the counter in the bathroom at my place. Malcom is hovering by his feet, like he does all the time when Rex is here. Rex shoos him out the door and shuts it behind him.


"I love him but man he’s overwhelming at times."


"I am not peeing in front of you, good sir!"


"Don’t make fun of me. I’m a little nervous and there’s really no way I’ll be able to pee in front of you without having stage fright."
