Alpine Lake Can I sail through the changin' ocean tides?

Penn had expected she might not respond... positively. After all, he was asking her to leave her parents and her siblings. Her friends too, though he couldn't see that as being a loss because fuck Bronco. He could see that being hard for her to do, and he could see her calling him an insensitive asshole for even asking her to consider bailing on them. He hadn't really expected her to be mad in this particular way, though. This particular way was a bit bewildering to him.

"What kind of nonsense you speaking, woman?" Penn asked, his brow quirked dramatically, "Resort to inviting you? The fuck? You think if all I wanted was some company, I'd come to you? You're a pain in the ass. I want you to come because I want you to come." He shook his head, knowing his explanation had been a poor one. Poor as in, hadn't made a ton of sense. But he was confused, so serve her right if she got confused now too.
