You want me to come back with you, huh?
Brought me a coffee and everything
Isn't that nice
That's nice
Wow
You know, making love in hotel rooms is easy
Nice dinners at restaurants paid for by that company you work for, that's great
Late night movies
And driving around the city
Like it's someplace else
Like it's not where I live
Like I'm a stranger here too
That's fun
That's all fun
But see, all this--?
This is a vacation
For you and for me
And if I go back with you, the vacation is over
We're not going back to another vacation
We're going back as a real thing
Will there still be late night movies and restaurants and Sundays where we just lay in bed naked and tell each other stories?
Eventually I'm going to run out of stories
Old stories anyway
New ones you'll be there for you, so I won't be able to tell you those
We won't be--
We've been acting like kids, you know?
And we're not kids
I'm not a kid
I mean, this has all been fun, but--
There's an element of--I don't know--pretend--to it
What happens when we have to stop pretending?
I mean, can we stop now?
Can we just stop now, just for tonight, since you're leaving tomorrow?
Can we try to have an honest night
Where we actually talk to each other
And act like this is something that needs to...
Be something before it can't be anything
Because...
Jesus, it's freezing out
It's three degrees out there
And we're in here
In this car
This rental car
And it's nice
But you have to give it back
Do you get that?
Do you get that this car isn't yours?
This place isn't yours
Nothing's yours
I'm not yours
It's three degrees out
And you want to take me home with you
Like I'm a souvenir that you can just put in your carry-on
And that can't happen
I can't go with you
But I'd like a night
I'd like a real night
To see what it would be like
If I did
Can we do that?
Do you think we can make that happen?
That's something
I'd really like
