Defining Moments (JD)

What was your most defining moment in your life?

My most defining moment? Ah, Hell. I use to think it was something from a long time ago. Like that decision to not take the Bar, even though I'd gone through all of law school. I used to think maybe it was when I kicked Simon out and decided to never get involved with anyone ever again. And maybe those were defining moments, very defining moments. But not the most. I know what the most is now; I can follow a series of decisions from it that got me to where I am now. Not a one of those moments made me happy.

Nah, my defining moment is the night I accidentally overdosed. And yeah, it really was an accident. Underestimated the amount of drugs in my system when I stuck that needle in.

That needle, sweet Jesus, I missed that.

Anyway. Yeah. The needle. That was the defining moment. He realized that he actually, really, gave a shit 'bout me. To the point that he was ready to trade whatever he had to make me well. I learned alot 'bout Leo, and myself, from that. Learned that I really didn't wanna be without him. That was the moment. Needed him and wanted him. Everything I done since then has been to be with him.

Gonna be with him. Forever. End of discussion.
