“It's worth at least thirty,” Nathan said putting the book back on the holder. He walked over to the counter and grabbed the glass box. When he turned around to place the box over the book he still half expected to see Todd running out the door with the book tucked under his arms. He laughed at the thought of giving the police a description of Todd and what he was wearing. At least they would have picked him up fairly quickly.
“Wow,” Todd said humbled. Watching his new infatuation being imprisoned once again behind a glass wall of tyranny he mulled over the price. “Don't think Martin would quite understand.”
“I also have the original leather dust jacket for it.”
Todd's eyes lit up, but then dulled again. “No, still would kill me,” he said putting his fingertips on the glass as if to say good-bye to a lover in jail. Pretending to cry he turned away in true soap opera fashion.

...he bigger lady pushed her out of the way and grabbed Nathan by the shoulders.
“Come here you little bitch,” she said wrapping her massive arms around him. He squeezed her tight, but she squeezed him tighter, causing him to gasp for air. The heavy set woman lifted him off his feet with her hug and swayed him back and forth like a little girl would a teddy bear. Finally, letting him go he took in a long deep breath. “I really missed you fucker,” she said with almost tears in her eyes.
“I missed you too Mag's,” he said getting color back into his face.
Then the woman that he called Mag's who was so happy to see him tugged him forward and punched him in the stomach so hard that it lifted him off the ground. He landed on his feet, but then bent over instantly out of breath. Looking up at his assailant unable to breathe he was able to muster out a whimpering, “You bitch.”
" I wish I could have helped more but hey did you hear about Lord Williamson " she says in a hushed tone. I stop and I turn around quickly.
“How am I supposed to know who I had got hitched to, let alone who was dumb enough to pick you two.”

“I know I’m starting at a very young age. Not even fifteen and already so independent- that’s a little hard for other people to understand. I’m pretty sure Margot would never kiss a boy unless...
Daniel gazed at her and sighed, “Look, I promised myself I would not date, not until after I got passed college and the part of my life I should have completed years ago. But I met you and I broke that promise so I could get you before someone else does”.
Unfortunately, I thought you did not love me anymore, and that is why I told them to torture you, instead of me. How petty of myself,” Winston spoke with regret, “I am sorry, Julia.”
“I know, but you look so lovely in my castle and your presence is overwhelming.” Pluto said.
Colet steps back from Sara, feeling the sting of her words pierce his heart. He heads to the door, where he lingers in it. “I’m sorry for my cruelty,” he said before
He turned his head toward me and peered at me through swollen eyes. “I begged her not to go with him,” he said quietly. “Do you hear me, I begged her!”
“NO!” Miles exploded, grabbing both her hands as he flipped her to her back, switching their positions, her hands pinned above her head.
"I 'm sorry," she replied and her voice cracked as she brought her hands to wipe her eyes, rubbing them roughly and turning them red, her chest heaved a sob as she dried them, but to no avail as more tears followed, soaking her hands eventually, "it 's just," there was a small pause as her chest heaved with another sob, "after all this time we’ve known each other and
Oceane just shook her head, laughing derisively. “Yeah, yeah, whatever you say, I’m leaving.” She turned and jumped out of the tree house, just catching a glimpse of Chris’ pained face as he reached out for her. Her heart hurt, but she thought she made the right decision. “It’s better off this way, I think,” she muttered.
“So Lex, that was the lawyer. I can’t believe you were going to let me have everything. And all so you could be free. Or should I say free to be with someone else. Donovan Micklos? Interesting choice. I’ve heard of him. He is a swinger, a bi sexual swinger, at that. Is that something you are willing to do? A secret fantasy of yours?” He laughs, thinking he just gave her damning information about Donovan.
... like he did for me. I love you and I'm sorry I let you down. I poisoned him with a bland liquid. Look under the floor board in the living room. I wanted you to have everything I didn't," she said as she was breathing hard and crying.
