He knew what she was going to say before she said it. 
 
 `` I'm sorry, I ca n't.'' 
 
 There was something in her expression that he did n't quite understand. `` Why not?'' 
 
 She attempted to start a sentence several times before abandoning her attempt to explain. `` Its... complicated.'' 
 
 `` Katy... do n't I deserve a better than that. After three fucking years. Do n't I deserve better than'Its complicated'.'' 
 
 `` And I know that *seems* like a lot, baby. But, I really feel you'd be better off without me.'' 
 
 `` **DO N'T I GET A SAY, KATY! ** He sprung up from the couch, and started pacing around the room. `` Do n't I get a say in what's best for me, because I want you to know. I was n't just on my way over here and thought, *oh gee, I do n't know, maybe I'll just stop by Jared's and get a 3000 dollar engagement ring and see if Katy wants to get married*. I fucking thought about it for months. This is what I fucking want!'' 
 
 Katy looked down at the diamond engagement ring. `` Jesus Christ, 3000 dollars? The markup on these is unbelievable. Do you know that De Beers just has warehouses of these things just lying-'' She stopped once she saw the look on his face. He turned and began to storm out of the room. `` Baby, wait!'' 
 
 `` No, fuck you, Katy. I ca n't believe you're treating me like this. I knew there was a chance you'd say no, but I never thought you'd be such a fucking bitch about this.'' 
 
 Katy scowled at him, but before she snapped back with the response in her head she managed to calm herself. `` You're right. I'm sorry. The ring is beautiful, I really liked it, and you do deserve better than its complicated. But I promise you if I explained it, why I ca n't marry you, you would be dramatically less satisfied with the explanation, then you are now with no explanation.'' 
 
 ``... No, you're full of shit. You just ca n't be bothered to make up a decent excuse.'' He tried to turn, but she held him in place, quite forcefully. 
 
 The scowl returned. `` Okay, asshole. You want an explanation? I'm a 23,000 year old, omnipotent demigod. Happy?'' 
 
 The news did n't sink in. 
 
 `` Are you glad you made me explain? Do you now feel some sense of relief? Or are you just as angry and now 20 times more confused?'' 
 
 `` What?'' 
 
 `` I have been on this planet since the fucking stone age, I could literally obliterate the planet with a snap of my fingers, and I think you're cute but its kind of hard to treat you as an equal based of your 22 years of life experience and position as the assistant manager at Joe's Crab Shack.'' 
 
 `` You ca n't be serious.'' 
 
 She rolled her eyes, `` Look, I've had fun, baby. I really have, and I want you to know that I could turn you immortal too, and we could stay together for a much longer time, but I just do n't think of you as eternity together material. So... I'm just going to blank you and everyone you knows memory about everything we've ever done together, and you're just gon na think you've been single this entire time.'' 
 
 `` But Katy...'' 
 
 `` Do n't worry about it, babe. It was fun.''
