Now, go.
Just turn around. You're fine.
You aren't really leaving me
behind.
I'll be here,
and you will be
half way gone
by morning.
You and I-
it couldn't work.
We really should've known
it wouldn't work.
And, yes, it was perfect.
And, yeah, it was fierce.
Don't forget
the way
we love.
Now, I will-
I'll grow up and get married.
And you will-
you'll grow up and
get married.
And you do your best to love her,
because you'll need it too.
But remember
how
we love.
