I've Never Seen A Man So In Love

Avery knew she was justifying things. At this point, she had to be the Queen of Justification. She and Christian weren't a normal couple. They were only pretending to be. 

Both of them had secrets they never intended to share. Though in her case, she already knew his through observation and deduction. He didn't know that and he never could because he would want to know how she knew. 

How was she supposed to explain that she figured it out after their first date because of all the time she had spent studying him as a villain in love with her hero? Even if she didn't factor the villain part of it into things, she would seem like a super creepy stalker fan. Not happening.
