Theodore is the soft one and Victoria is the menace who already decided he's staying. I'd bet she keeps that book up so he can't see her smiling.

"Never break someone's heart," I said. "They only have one."

Victoria didn't even look up from her book.

"Break their bones instead."

I blinked.

"What?"

Victoria turned a page.

"They have two hundred and six of those."

I sighed. Her gray eyes met mine.

"Get used to it, Theodore. You're stuck with me anyway"

    Putting the bone count in the title turns the whole thing into a love letter written as a threat, and I laughed at that. Victoria reads like someone who would never say the words out loud and would still show up with soup when you're sick. I bet Theodore ends up saying it first and she just turns another page :)
