Quote(s)

1.    If you don’t want to drink … then just grab a cup and put some water or juice or whatever in it … that way you won’t feel left out, and people won’t keep offering you drinks.

2.    He pushed her against the wall and started lifting up the fabric of her dress. Alex tried to tell him to stop, but her mouth fumbled the words.

3.    The reason I broke up with Jen is because she was doing Ecstasy. I asked her to stop. Tried to get her help. She chose to continue using, and one day I caught her with heroine.

4.    I found out she was selling it to my little sister.

5.    Well, just be careful. You don’t get a bad boy reputation from being sweet all the time.

6.    She squelched back to her room and flung open her closet.

7.    It was like she was leading two lives now. at college she could be who she wanted to be, go to parties, and stay up late, but around her parents she would always default to the conservative, good little girl they knew. Alex felt uneasy. She finally felt like she was growing into her own person, and it made her feel guilty.

8.    “Did you,” Alex paused trying to find the right words, “find it hard when you first started college? Like to balance life at home and at school?”

Liam smirked at the windshield as he turned onto Lincoln Avenue. “This is your first big transition in life. You’re going to have to find out who you are and what you want. You’re going to have some growing pains and you’re going to mess up. It’s part of it.”

9.    You’re going to mess up, but as long as you learn from it, who cares?

10. Finally, I just had to sit down with my parents and tell them I would come visit a few times a month, but that they needed to give me space to grow into whoever I was going to be.

11. You’re their daughter. They’re going to love you no matter what.

12. Lainey was texting on her phone as she talked.

13. She needed to trust her own judgement and stop being influenced by others. Even though she knew she wasn’t through with this giant transition period in her life, Alex finally felt like with Liam’s help, she was on her way to becoming the woman she wanted to be.

Conclusion

I … don’t know what to say. In all seriousness, the story ended just like that? I mean, I know it is a short story but no depth at all? I wanted more, like happily ever after! And by that, I mean marriage! Being couple is not enough! Wait, are they couple couple? I’m confused!
