Ellie: i- uhm . . back before you found me everything was set in stone. you grow up into a beautiful woman, get married, have kids, and be "happy" for the rest of your days. the idea of it uhm- actually kind of disgusted me. your forced into this "perfect" town with "perfect" people a-and being forced to be somewhere happy and forced to do things with these hypocritical leaders- i- it's not fun- b-but here- with you- i-i'm actually happy- and im not forced to feel things, they just happen. and i want to be with you. i love you- even if you try to force me with someone better- i'm going to stay. i want to. the only reason i would want to leave is if you wanted me to . .
