I've read this about three times already and it's still completely blowing my mind.
“Then get out,” he tells her, and it’s the nicest thing he’s ever said to her.
Gah, the way you ended this chapter. So Alex, and so true. There are a million other parts I'd love to point out and dissect, but I'm late for work so I'll keep it short.
What I love most is how real this feels, and how it's Alex just filling in the blanks and is written completely in character. It's not apologetic and it's not always pretty, but it's so damn perfect and the writing is lovely.
