"That's why I want to remain perpetually drunk. A chain smoker, rude and dangerous enough to send nature quaking with my anger.""You're good, Kevin. Why would you want to turn bad?""Because then maybe you could love me," he stated, his gaze locking onto hers.

But I'm stuck with commitments.""I can't figure out these relationship things. Mr. Johnson is alright with you sticking around Mr. Dixon?
