He was disgusted by couples that made out in the hallways between classes, and got annoyed at even the slightest sappy moments in movies.

Once I might have wanted more, but I'd come around to his way of thinking in the time we'd been together. And we were together, all the time. So he didn't have to prove how he felt about me. Like so much else, I should just know.”
