A night in with the rarest bird of them all.

Company dinners were not his thing. His idea of the perfect New Years was a night with his girl, and heaven help anyone who tried to prevent him from getting just that.

Hugging a pillow is never quite the same as hugging the real thing. For the first time in a long time, there isn't an ocean separating them.

It was too much. She hated feeling so broken in front of him, but it was just too much. "I need an airbag, before I hit the sadness that approaches." "Don't cry, I'm here."

She was tired of falling down with no one there to pick her up. "Everybody knows you tried; everybody knows it's alright. You get some right, you get some wrong - there will be a day to smile again."

When she blew out the candles that night she had only one wish: for him to be next to her again. Could she be dreaming?

Keeping their relationship hidden was proving to be harder than it had originally sounded. "I don't need a parachute, baby, If I got you."

She had planned the perfect early Saturday morning, but he just wanted to sleep - and he doesn't enjoy sleeping alone. "This has got to be the strangest morning I've ever had in my life."

The pain felt crippling. She felt like she couldn't take it anymore. And then he was there. "Somebody take me away, 'cause I can't take this pain."

What could he do to make her see the truth? He was sick of seeing her feeling miserable, and he just wanted her to realize that he was there, no matter what. "I think I'm ugly, and nobody wants to love me."
