"I wish we could disappear," he whispers, his fingers tracing the contours of her body.

She smiles at his touch and murmurs, "I would run away with you."

He chuckles softly. "You can't leave everyone, Alex. Not forever."

"I would, though. I would do anything to be with you." She leans up to kiss him, but he looks away.

"I know, Alex. I just love you too much to let you leave them. We can't do that to them."

"We're doing this."

"Well, that 's because I love you too much to stop."
