Give up on your dreams and die.
Ali was listening, but at the same time she wasn't. She was lost in her own thoughts about why she was acting the way she was. There was an unidentifiable knot in her stomach and her heart was pounding. What about this situation, what about Conor was making her act like this? Perhaps it was the fact that she was still avoiding figuring out her feelings towards him. Feelings she knew she had, but didn't want to admit. Well she certainly would have to now that she was in this predicament. His final statement, she heard and it was quite possibly her tipping point. How dare he act like he did nothing wrong, she thought to herself. Standing up, she stepped up to him and looked him in the eyes, hers filled with so much emotion.
"Conor. You think this is about you not being there for me when Leo got shot? No, no. This is about you not being there for me AT ALL." She took a dramatic pause and continued. "You didn't call to check on me when Alex suddenly popped back up into your life. You just... You just ran to her without a care in the world about what happened to me." There was the feeling of tears welling up and she dared a tear to even fall out. "Don't get me wrong, I knew what our relationship was. I knew eventually it would all end but I..." She closed her eyes, shook her head and sighed. For the first time in a while she felt vulnerable. "I didn't think you'd do it without giving it a second thought." She was currently admitting the truth to herself and to Conor and she felt a weight lift off her shoulders.
