“I love you.”
“You do?”
He nodded just once. “Like crazy. You wanted me to see you. But, Adele, you’re all I see.”

“No one had ever looked at me the way he did now. Like I was more than just some riddle to be solved or a body to be conquered. But as if I held some integral part of him, maybe. The man looked at me like I truly mattered, as if he really saw me, and I hadn’t even realized just how much that had been missing from the others.”

“I have more to say and this, I’m not going to apologize for. Here’s the thing. You had no right…No. right. to leave me,” I grit out. “To pretend in some sort of disillusionment I would ever - ever - do anything to betray you. Yes, I’m sorry I didn’t fight for us. But I shouldn’t have had to.”

“I miss you,” I say.
Her body sags against me, and tears immediately form in her eyes. She’s always been an emotional sap, but I know it’s more than just her normal emotions getting to her now. She feels it too. I need to do something about it, and seeing her to the point of tears breaks my heart. She should never feel that our relationship will cause her tears.
“Don’t cry. Please, Tess. It breaks my heart. I can’t take the tears.”
“I’m sorry.” She sniffles. “I can’t help it. it’s not just the sex. Yes, I miss it terribly, but it’s you. I miss you too. We have to find a way to get back to ourselves.”
“Come on now, I know it’s really just my magical penis that you miss,” I tease her.
She looks up at me with a watery smile and says through her chuckling, “You know it.”
