Chapter 57

• If I give in, then she knows just how to get me to give her whatever she wants. But I guess there isn't a lot I wouldn't her at this point. I sigh with a soft smile on my face and ruffle a hand through my hair before I press the button on the remote and the movie starts to play.
• "Yay!" She's so excited about such a small thing, like a child being given the keys to a candy store after being told to 'go crazy' once inside. Her smile is infectious and I find myself smiling widely as I stretch my legs out in front of me and her body is curled into my side. Her head on my shoulder, her leg curled up underneath her, her arm resting against mine. Our Thai takeout is still sitting on the coffee table in front of us, having just finished chowing down on Pad Thai while I tell her stories of my travels through the years. She told me all the places she's ever really wanted to go, and I've made a mental note of them; New York, Venice, Los Angeles and Paris. I intend to take her to all of them, if she'd let me.
• I have to say, the movie isn't that bad, but Amelia is a terrible person to watch movies with. It's kind of adorable, but she watches the movie with her entire body. Whenever someone says anything sweet or romantic she kind of curls her body into a little ball and splits her mouth open with a wide grin. She also points out the characters and explains who they are and what her opinion is of them, and prepares you for major plot lines.
