Synopsis
|
Lost. That one single word best
describes my life at this very moment. I lost the last games of the season
and both my team and my coach blame me. I lost the last two months because I
drowned in my own despair like a complete loser. And I lost the only girl who
ever mattered because I was afraid being with me would destroy her. But now I realize how truly lost I am
without her. She has become my story…and even though she acts like she’s
moved on, I know she still thinks about me just as much as I think about her.
She’s beautiful, sweet—and so damn vulnerable, all I want to do is help her.
Be there for her. Love her… If only I could convince Fable to give
me a second chance. Then I wouldn’t feel so lost anymore, and neither would
she. We could be found together. Forever. |

Quote(s)

1.
You can close your eyes to the things
you don’t want to see, but can’t close your heart to the things you don’t want
to feel. – Johnny Depp 2.
At least someone gives a crap about me,
you know? 3.
If there ever comes a day when we can’t
be together, keep me in your heart, I’ll stay there forever. – Winnie the
Pooh 4.
He chose her, though. Now he has to
deal with the fallout of their dissolving marriage. 5.
My slutty – and not so slutty – past is
catching up to me and messing with my future. 6.
I’m living it, right at this very moment,
getting dressed and ready for a lazy Sunday with Drew. 7.
It’s easy to write the words I love
you, to compose poems about her, declaring my undying love for her with a
bunch of flowery sentences. It’s another thing entirely making that
declaration to her face. Scary enough just saying the words out loud to my
shrink. “Loving someone is taking a
constant risk with your emotions. When you find the right person, the one you
know you want to be with, that person becomes worth the risk.” Dr. Harris
pauses, studying me carefully. “Do you believe Fable is worth the risk to
you?” “Yes,” I say without
hesitation. She smiles. “If that’s what
you believe, then she’ll want to hear those words, Drew. I bet she thinks you’re
worth the risk as well.” 8.
We are afraid to care too much for fear
that the other person does not care at all. – Eleanor Roosevelt 9.
The best proof of love is trust. – Dr.
Joyce Brothers 10.
Just remember that your relationship
with Fable is still in that fresh, euphoric honeymoon stage. Cherish her. Enjoy
her. But never forget you need to be there for her through the good times and
the bad. And I’m saying this in a rather subjective way, Drew. I believe that
girl is good for you. She’ll help you heal. 11.
If I had a flower for every time I thought
of you … I could walk through my garden forever. – Alfred Tennyson 12.
The real lover is the man who can
thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring
into space. – Marilyn Monroe 13.
Most of the shadows of this life are
caused by our standing in our own sunshine. – Ralph Waldo Emerson 14.
We sometimes look to put the blame on
others because we don’t want to believe the truth. … we also tend to blame
ourselves. 15.
The truth is rarely pure and never
simple. – Oscar Wilde 16.
Why is it such a crime, falling in
love? My husband neglected me for years. His son reminds me so much of him…
only better. Younger. More vibrant. Sweet and eager to please. At first it was all for fun.
When your husband loses interest in her sexually, a woman starts to feel less
than. Ignored. Alone. I started flirting with Drew and he responded. Oh,
maybe he was a little uncomfortable at first but the more we talked, the more
time we spent together, the more he liked it. The more he liked me. Now he hates me. I don’t know
where it all went wrong. I don’t understand his total disgust for me… 17.
He won’t let me go. That’s both reassuring
and cloying. I need Andy for financial security. I want others for excitement
and passion. My husband can no longer give me that sort of excitement, which
is a shame. 18.
Mistakes are always forgivable, if one
has the courage to admit them. – Bruce Lee 19.
Two people in love, alone, isolated from
the world, that’s beautiful. – Milan Kundera 20.
Now I take everything day by day. No need
for panic. When the time comes for a decision to be made, I know we’ll do the
right thing. |
