    Jamie McGuire
    “Vegas?" I asked. His brow furrowed, unsure of where I was headed.
    "Yeah?"
    "Have you thought about going back?" His eyebrows shot up.
    "I don't think that's a good idea for me."
    "What if we just went for a night?" He looked around the dark room, confused.
    "A night?"
    "Marry me," I said without hesitation. I was surprised at how quickly and easily the words came. His mouth spread into a broad smile.
    "When?" I shrugged.
    "We can book a flight tomorrow. It's spring break. I dont't have anything going on tomorrow, do you?"
    "I'm callin' your bluff," he said, watching my reaction closely as he was connected. "I need two tickets to vegas, please. Tomorrow. Hmmmm...," he looked at me, waiting for me to change my mind. "Two days, round trip. Whatever you have.”
    Jamie McGuire, Beautiful Disaster

    Stephenie Meyer
    “The bond forged between us was not one that could be broken by absence, distance, or time. And no matter how much more special or beautiful or brilliant or perfect than me he might be, he was as irreversibly altered as I was. As I would always belong to him, so would he always be mine.”

    Sarah Dessen
    “Because you can never go from going out to being friends, just like that. It's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of a breakup. And someone always takes it to mean more than it does, and then is hurt even more when, inevitably, said ‘friendly' relationship is still a major step down from the previous relationship, and it's like breaking up all over again. But messier.”
    Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby

    Alysha Speer
    “Life is painful and messed up. It gets complicated at the worst of times, and sometimes you have no idea where to go or what to do. Lots of times people just let themselves get lost, dropping into a wide open, huge abyss. But that's why we have to keep trying. We have to push through all that hurts us, work past all our memories that are haunting us. Sometimes the things that hurt us are the things that make us strongest. A life without experience, in my opinion, is no life at all. And that's why I tell everyone that, even when it hurts, never stop yourself from living.”
    Alysha Speer

    Sarah Dessen
    “Some things don't last forever, but some things do. Like a good song, or a good book, or a good memory you can take out and unfold in your darkest times, pressing down on the corners and peering in close, hoping you still recognize the person you see there.”
    Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby

    Alan Bennett
    “The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you had thought special and particular to you. Now here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out and taken yours.”
    Alan Bennett, The History Boys
