I glanced at Derek. The boy wonder didn't melt into a pile of goo, although his gaze was glued to Rowena's chest. Avoiding eye contact. Good strategy.

About This Quote

Reading the above scene, you may be thinking "Derek is creepy.” Not so. Derek's not creepy. He's just a kid who's all grown up and suddenly got hit with love, or lust, or whatever. That's what makes this scene so brilliant.

It's the perfect example of how love can transform someone overnight. That transformation, however, has to be handled with care.
