    Rick Riordan
    “Whenever Percy stopped by to see [Annabeth], she was so lost in thought that the conversation went something like this:
    Percy: 'Hey, how's it going?'
    Annabeth: 'Uh, no thanks.'
    Percy: 'Okay...have you eaten anything today?'
    Annabeth: 'I think Leo is on duty. Ask him.'

    Rick Riordan
    “And,” Annabeth continued, “it reminds me how long we’ve known each other. We were twelve, Percy. Can you believe that?”
    “No, he admitted. “So…you knew you liked me from that moment?”
    She smirked. “I hated you at first. You annoyed me. Then I tolerated you for a few years. Then—”
    “Okay, fine.”
    She leaned in and kissed: him a good, proper kiss without anyone watching—no Romans anywhere, no screaming satyr chaperones.
    She pulled away. “I missed you, Percy.”
    Percy wanted to tell her the same thing, but it seemed too small a comment. While he had been on the Roman side, he’d kept himself alive almost solely by thinking of Annabeth. I missed you didn’t really cover that.”
    Rick Riordan, The Mark of Athena

    “If I get too comfortable, I will wake one morning and everything around me will have shifted overnight. All I knew? I know no longer. And all I had? Vanished in an instant.
    There’s nothing I can keep with me that will stay.

    “They say the cure is about happiness, but I understand now that it isn't, and it never was. It's about fear: fear of pain, fear of hurt, fear, fear, fear - a blind animal existence, bumping between walls, shuffling between ever-narrowing hallways, terrified and dull and stupid.”

    Lauren Oliver
    “I'm not with Rob," I say quickly. "Not anymore."
    "You're not?" He's staring at me so intensely I can see the stripes of gold alternating with the green in his eyes like spokes of a wheel.
    I shake my head.
    "That's a good thing." He's still staring at me like that, like he's the first and last person who will ever stare at me.
    "Because..." His voice trails off, and his eyes travel slowly down to my lips, and there's so much heat roaring through
    my body I swear I'm going to pass out.
    "Because?" I prompt him, surprised I can still speak.
    "Because I'm sorry, but I can't help it, and I really need to kiss you right now.”

    “Be honest: Are you surprised that I didn't realize sooner? Are you surprised that it took me so long to even /think/ the word -- death? Dying? Dead?

    Do you think I was being stupid? Naive?

    Try not to judge. Remember that we're the same, you and me.

    I thought I would live forever too.”
    Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

    Lauren Oliver
    “I want to help you,' I say to Juliet, though I know that I can't make her understand, not like this.

    'Don't you get it?' She turns to me, and to my surprise I see she's crying. 'I can't be fixed, do you understand?'

    I think of standing on the stairs with Kent and saying exactly the same thing. I think of his beautiful light green eyes, and the way he said, You don't need to be fixed and the warmth of his hands and the softness of his lips. I think of Juliet's mask and how maybe we all feel patched and stitched together and not quite right.

    I am not afraid.

    Dimly, I have the sense of roaring in my ears and voices so close and faces, white and frightened, emerging from the darkness, but I can't stop staring at Juliet as she's crying, still so beautiful.

    'It's too late,' she says.

    And I say, 'It's never too late.”
    Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall
