"Because we live in a town that was already on its way to hell before we were born. But has killer waves," she said, putting her hand into a 'hang loose' gesture and shaking her head. "No offense," she said, smiling. She rather liked watching him surf, come to think of it. She pushed the thought aside.
She looked down at the table and nodded slowly. "I...well, when I came here, it was right at graduation. I still hated you, or thought I did, because I'd opened my heart up to you and then opened your door to find Kendall. But you SAVED me, Logan. Sometimes it takes all of my willpower to push the images of that night on the Neptune Grand Roof out of my mind, and technically it never HAPPENED to me. I showed up here before that. This place has a funny way of giving you memories you don't really want." She paused and looked back up at him.
"I am happy. I'm happier than I've ever been here. And I want you to be happy too, Logan. And I want you in my life. You're so important to me. I just hope those things aren't incompatible."
