Season5: Eps15 - Sin in the City 4 (photo story)
Chloe: *eyes wide, stutters* “R-r-reef, I—”
Reef: *forges on* “Because, for me, lovin’ you is like breathin’: instinctive. And even when I take it for granted, I’m still well aware that if I ever stop, I’ll die. If you could just love me half as much as I love you, I figure we’ll still have more between us than most other couples ever—”
Chloe: “Whoa! S-s-stop! Just stop t-t-talking!”
Reef: *mouth closes with an audible click, as he starts to rise from the bed*
Chloe: *grabs Reef’s arm, clinging to it* “N-n-no, don’t go! I d-d-didn’t mean…”
Reef: *with a casualness that doesn’t match the hard set of his jaw* “No worries, Chlo. I didn’t mean to push. I’ll just give you some space and we’ll talk about it later.”
Chloe (forcefully): “N-N-NO! Stay! *exhales loudly* You know I’m s-s-slow when I’m upset. Just give me a d-d-damn second.”
Reef: *settles back onto the bed* “Okay.”
Chloe: *takes several deep breaths, carefully begins choosing her words* “I am not upset over the depth of your feelings for me, Reef. I am upset that you think you love me more, and you just accept it like that’s the way it’s gotta to be and you’ll settle for it.”
Reef: “I will.”
Chloe: *holds her finger up, fierce look demanding silence* “Who says you love me more? Who made that decision, huh? And I didn’t realize love was a quantifiable commodity that you can weigh and measure! Or that this was a contest!”
Reef: *suddenly angry* “What about Z?”
Chloe (nonplussed): “What about him?”
Reef: “You loved him for years, Chlo. Are you telling me that it’s all gone? Maybe another girl could pull that off, but not you. You don’t love easily and you don’t forget. You don’t work that way!”
Chloe: *matching Reef’s anger with her own* “No, I don’t! And I never said I didn’t love Z anymore! I just don’t love him like I love you!”
Reef: “Right. Because you love him more!”
Chloe: *growls in frustration* “Geeeez, Reef, sometimes you’re so…*quickly pulls her legs underneath her, bouncing agitatedly on the bed*…ugh! I didn’t even realize this was an issue for us anymore! How long has this been festerin’?”
Reef: *violent shrug* “I didn’t realize it was until just now. Green-eyed is so not cool, Chlo. You think I don’t know that? I hate feeling this way! You’re my best girl. He’s my brosef. Hell, I’m frickin’ sick of it! The jealousy. The fear…afraid I’ll do something to push you away. Turn you off. Realize you can do better. *buries his face in his hands, softly* I’m not him, Chlo. I never will be.”
Chloe: *stricken, crawls over to Reef, encircling him with her arms, propping her chin on his shoulder* “I never asked you to be! I don’t want you to be! I don’t want you to be anyone but you.”
Reef: *shoulders rigid, refusing to look at Chloe, mutters* “Sure.”
