#Chapter49

/"So, your favorite book is Pride and Prejudice?/" Sebastian asked, sounding surprised.

/"Why do you sound so shocked?/" I asked as I nibbled on one of the tiny egg-rolls.

He gave me a lazy smile. /"I just didn't peg you as a hopeless romantic./" He picked up a grape from my plate and plopped it into his mouth, chewing slowly.

I returned his smile. /"I agree it's one of the best love stories of all time but there's so much more to it./" I explained /"It teaches us that love isn't supposed to be easy. It tells us that love requires effort and that it is difficult but not in a 'you're a really difficult person to be with' kind of way but in a 'you make me want to be a better person' kind of way./" When Sebastian gave me a blank look I shrugged. /"You have to read the book to understand what I mean./"

His eyebrow arched, almost challengingly.
