like him, but you're not." Em backs away. Her heart is in denial. She doesn't want to believe it. There's no way it can be true.
"Em, listen. Can you not hear my voice? Can you not see that I am who I was without the scars? Or has pain blinded you? Do you not love at all anymore?" Jay looks at Em for the first time for who she has become. Not what she used to be.
"I can love no one but Jay. There is no way you are him. He...he...."
"I love you. I cannot let you go. Drew kept me alive. I don't know what he did, but he knew you loved me. He told me you never really loved him more than me. I didn't believe him. He came up with this whole plan. I would be dead right now."
"If you were really Jay, you wouldn't have done this to me. You would have seen how broken I was." Em has closed her heart. It has been closed for a long time. It will take a lot of convincing to make her believe Jay could be alive. A lot of healing.
"I had no choice. You think I liked seeing you cry. I cried with you. It took all of my self control to keep from holding you when you were sad. It broke my heart as much as it hurt.....what used to be yours. You have blotted out every form of love. You do not even believe that I can love you so much, that is the only reason I am still alive." Tears are running down his face. He doesn't know what else to say to make her believe. To touch her in some way.
