What did you do to him that he might not want to speak to…
““What did you do to him that he might not want to speak to you?' he asked. 'I cried in front of him,' Georgie said. 'Oh, well, that’s not a dealbreaker. It might have freaked him out for a few hours, but I guarantee you he’s over it. Heck, he might even have liked it. Sometimes it’s like, ‘Let me put my big strong arms around you, and hold you while you cling to me.’ It’s kind of weirdly hot in a way,' said Luke. 'Is it?' Georgie asked incredulously. 'Sometimes. I mean, I don’t know if it is for him, but it is for me sometimes. It’s some weird caveman shit where you’re like, ‘Must protect my woman!’ Plus also, a crying woman does not want to stay crying. She wants to be cheered up. And the quickest way to do that is through some seriously spectacular sex.””
