Hey look, I know I'm probably the biggest, well, ass at this school. And that I'm always doing something that gets on your nerves.

[He keeps stroking and keeping her close.]

But you're pretty much the only one I can always rely on to be there for me.

[He's quite for a moment then says quietly]

And I'll always try to be there for you, even if I'm an inconsiderate ass.
