not so easy to walk away from someone when he
has made his way into every cell, when he has
taken over every thought, and he has been

hoping desperately that I could have that great love
that I’ve read about in novels.”

“I want him to look in the mirror and smile, not scowl. I need him to not think of himself as a monster.

the way I feel.”

Until now, until you.” - Hardin”

“I know you are new at this dating thing, but people don’t usually insult their girlfriend and ask them to move in with them in the same sentence,” I inform him, chewing my bottom lip to suppress my smile.

“Well, sometimes the said girlfriend needs to lighten up.” He grins. Even drunk, he’s charming as hell.

“Well, then said boyfriend needs to stop being a jerk,” I say to retaliate.

“I don't really care for fiction."
"How can you not? The best thing about reading is to escape from your life, to be able to live hundreds or even thousands of different lives. Non-fiction doesn't have that power- it doesn't change you like fiction does."
