Keeping Things Whole, Ch. 12
Chapter 12
Melanie comes jogging towards us, hugging Zoey first, then Ant, and then approaches me. She looks as if she’s not sure if I’m a “hug-y” person, and to be honest, I’m not—but she’s different. I hold out my arms a bit, and while it’s awkward, it’s an invitation nonetheless, and she takes it. She’s warm against my chest and I can feel her curves through her clothes, and I’m not overwhelmed by perfume or anything like that. She smells like drying leaves and strawberry shampoo. I like it.
“So glad you all made it,” she says once we pull apart, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “The hot dogs have just been taken off the grill, and I’ve got a veggie burger cooking just for you, Zoey. So what do you think, Ant? Should I give Shiloh the property tour?”

"I’ve never understood why people have problems with guys liking guys, or girls liking girls. Why should we give a shit about what people do with their love? It’s theirs, you know? Not yours, not mine: it’s theirs, so they should get to do whatever the fuck they want to do with it."

We focus so much on the fact that the person’s not here anymore, but that’s not the point. A hundred years from now, all of us will be gone. What good does crying and talking about how much you miss a person do? It just makes you more sad. We’re all temporary—might as well make the best of it.

"I know that I’m not good enough for you. I’m not looking for a pity party- I’m just being honest. You’re just an all around better person than I could even dream of being, and I wouldn’t blame you for up and leaving me. But just know that no-one can ever love you more than this piece of shit loves you. Because I do. I love you so fucking much it hurts. Now I know you’ll probably find yourself someone else- someone better. Someone you won’t fight with, someone romantic, someone you deserve. But no matter how much they say they love you, they can’t love you in an entire lifetime as much as I can in a minute. I know I’m full of shit. I know I’m irritable and cynical. I know I get sad sometimes and I know that I can’t express my emotions like a normal human being. I can’t give you everything that you need. But I can give you me, for what I’m worth."

“But maybe it’s just me- maybe there’s something wrong with me. Maybe my brain’s wired differently…”

“I’m sorry that I’m sick. I’m sorry that I can’t be around for you like I’m supposed to.”
“Don’t you dare apologize for this. You’ve been nothing short of perfect. You’ll be okay.”
