Forget it, OK? I get it.
[He doesn't get it.
She keeps talking about marriage with Elena, and then breathing about their tryst in the same breath. He had let Elena go as best he could when it came up and time for it (and after she had left him behind as well), and he had thought he had a nice no-fancy-titles no-strings sort of plan in place with Chloe.
He sighs out the follow up without realizing it. Maybe if he says it enough, everything will make better sense to him.]
I get it.
[This wasn't the conversation he was planning on having tonight.]
