Lying. Not lying down (Lily would want to claim the couch potato talent). I am just a great liar.   Significant other? My best friend. The love of my entire life. Lily Calloway. No one else can have her. She’s mine.   Biggest challenge in relationships? Challenges? What are those? We’re perfect. Of course I’m joking.
