    “You think these recent events are everything. You think Aaron fell in love with your friend of several months, a rebel girl named Juliette. You don't know. You don't know. You don't know that Aaron has been in love with Ella for the better part of his entire life. They've known each other since childhood...…..The reason he had to keep wiping their memories was because it didn't matter how many times he reset the story or remade the introductions - Aaron always fell in love with her. Every time.


    - Delalieu”
    Tahereh Mafi, Defy Me

    “I know you want it back,” he says, “but I’m afraid I’m going to have to
    keep it forever.” He holds it up, shows it to me. Grins. And then puts it in
    his pocket. The one place I’d never dare to reach.
    “Why?” I can’t help but ask. “Why do you want it so much?”
    He spends far too long just looking at me. Not answering my question.
    And then he says
    “On the darkest days you have to search for a spot of brightness, on the
    coldest days you have to seek out a spot of warmth; on the bleakest days
    you have to keep your eyes onward and upward and on the saddest days you
    have to leave them open to let them cry. To then let them dry. To give them a
    chance to wash out the pain in order to see fresh and clear once again.”
    “I can’t believe you have that memorized,” I whisper.
    He leans back again. Closes his eyes again. Says, “Nothing in this life
    will ever make sense to me but I can’t help but try to collect the change and
    hope it’s enough to pay for our mistakes.”

    “I don’t understand—why won’t you talk to me?
    You sit in the corner all day and write in your book and look at everything but my face. You have so much to say to a piece of paper but I’m standing right here and you don’t even acknowledge me. Juliette, please—”
    Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

    “I do. I’m sorry if you expect me to do the noble thing. I warned you. I’m not sweet or soft or kind, and you fell anyway. This is what you get, Violet— me. The good, the bad, the unforgivable. All of it. I am yours.” His arm wraps around the small of my back, holding me steady and close. “You want to know something true? Something real? I love you. I’m in love with you. I have been since the night the snow fell in your hair and you kissed me for the first time. I’m grateful my life is tied to yours because it means I won’t have to face a day without you in it. My heart only beats as long as yours does, and when you die, I’ll meet Malek at your side. It’s a damned good thing that you love me, too, because you’re stuck with me in this life and every other that could possibly follow.”

    “I love you,” I whisper. “You could throw my entire world into upheaval, and I would still love you. You could keep secrets, run a revolution, frustrate the shit out of me, probably ruin me, and I would still love you. I can’t make it stop. I don’t want to. You’re my gravity. Nothing in my world works without you.”

    "Is that all I am to you? A trophy?"

    “I’d never thought about what my favorite color was before. It never seemed important. Not until I looked into a pair of ocean-blue eyes and realized that perhaps drowning was a beautiful thing. Not until I looked into a pair of fiery blue eyes and realized that perhaps burning was a painless thing. Not until I looked into a pair of sky-blue eyes and realized that perhaps falling was a peaceful thing.
